The waiter can do everything. I suppose you could hire another person, but he does the work of two people. He's the Asian Flash. The food was great and the service is very attentive.

One of the Metroplex's enduring Chinese chains. Love the wonton noodle soup. Always fresh, just the same as it has been for decades. They do Chinese-American classics really well too, like sesame chicken Mongolian beef. It's cash only, unpretentious, and welcoming.

Some of the best Chinese food I've had, especially in the DFW area. Small and unassuming spot, but the food is the real deal.

Amazing food! Made our Christmas dinner magical. Duck is as good as we ever have outside of San Francisco. For real soups and dumplings. Chinese broccoli is the best! Cash only is such a pain in the ass and prevents me from spending more money...Read More
