The food here is DELICIOUS. The vegetables are alway fresh, crispy, and perfectly cooked. The chicken is juicy and the egg rolls are super crunchy! This is what Chinese food is supposed to taste like. You can really tell how much the owners care about their customers. They make everything themselves - and you can taste the quality in each bite. I'm so glad my friend put me on to this place. Definitely the best Chinese food I've had in years.

Don't judge a book by its cover...I went here because I was craving crab Rangoon and it was the closest place. I also ordered a sesame chicken combo. The place is in a strip mall, and the small dining room is now delivery only. It looks more like an office space than a restaurant from the entry. But... oh my gosh the food was SO GOOD. Probably the best Chinese takeout I've had in a long time, and I'm very picky. Also, there was enough food for two people. I will be back.

I remember many years ago, this family had a restaurant in Oxford; Golden Dragon. I use to go when visiting friends in that area. Some of my favorite Chinese food in the state of Michigan. I heard they re opened a new restaurant under a new name. So when I traveled home I made a point to drive that way to get some of the locals best. Located in this big plaza while heading north it was tough to see signage. But GPS led me so fortunately I knew where to look. Plenty of parking outside so no issue in the lot. Few people waiting for carry out, was greeted with a warm welcome when entering. They were busy so I let em know I was in no rush. Menus so big and I was by myself so i ordered more than I needed but I wanted to try more than one thing. It’s a bad habit but I do it often. A favorite of mine not found where I live now in Florida; is the Almond Boneless Chicken dish. I ordered that combo style which came with fried rice and egg roll. Crab Ragoon, pot stickers & golden bricks for dessert. Plenty if room to dine in if you have the time, I went carry out and rushed back home which was a 30min drive. The food still held well, and the chicken was still crispy. 100% would have been even better there but I didn’t have the time. Both apps were held well and tasted great. The pot stickers sauce was spicy which was perfect. As always the Lam family was working and saw both husband & wife working together and serving plenty of patrons. Always good to see them healthy and working hard. Next time in Michigan will stop by again. Great food, family owned awesome hospitality.

We ordered General Tso’s Chicken and Kung Pao Shrimp. My first impression is that everything tasted FRESH! The chicken was crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside just as General Tso’s Chicken should be. The sauce was a great balance of spicy and sweet. The Kung Pao Shrimp was likewise delicious and spice level was medium as promised. The flavor was amazing. The portions were generous and one dish was more than enough for two people to share. The white rice was also perfect, slightly sticky just as it should be. Everyone enjoyed the meal and we will be ordering again. For those folks for whom it matters, their meat is sourced halal with the appropriate certification well-displayed.

Delicious Chinese Halal dishes, quality food and service at reasonable price. Singaporean Rice noodles, beef chop suey and sesame chicken I ordered were delicious. Best take out Chinese in the area so far. Will definitely be back.

It was sooooo good. Everyone loved the almond boneless chicken and vegitable fried rice. The appetizers were also so good, the spring and egg rolls were so crunchy and delicious.

I really enjoyed the general tso lunch special! The chicken was nice and crispy chicken and the portion was plentiful that came with fried rice and a spring roll. The best part is they are halal certified and when we called the supplier they confirmed they are also hand slaughtered halal. The owner was so sweet and kind. Will definitely be coming back.

The General Tso’s chicken is a definite best here. I also really liked the sesame chicken. You get a portion of rice with every entree so Id say it’s a pretty bang for your buck kind of thing. Atmosphere is nice and cozy and the ladies who work there are also nice but not overly so, pretty casual all around.
