Absolutely wonderful I love the food their and the service I was provided by the waiters one waiter in particularly was Amiya she was so kind and nice and she just made my day, she always brings my food on time and apologizes even if it on time because it wasn’t out earlier. All round I will be coming back and I hope I have Amiya as my waiter to serve me the delicious food.

We loved EVERYTHING about this place, the food, the staff, the atmosphere. We ordered the Edamames and Vegetable egg rolls. Both were DELICIOUS, HOT & FRESH. For our main Entree my wife ordered the Mango Shrimp, and I ordered the Pineapple Curry. We both decided this was our new favorite Asian Cuisine spot. We shall return to try many items on the menu

The vegetable egg rolls were fabulous! I have to believe they were made from fresh (not frozen) materials - crunchy insides! The orange chicken and pad see eiw also exceeded our expectations. We will be back

This is my favorite Chinese restaurant in NWI. Their food is so delicious and authentic. I really enjoy the egg rolls with sweet and sour sauce. Additionally, I often order the house/combination egg foo young and Taos chicken with the sweet burgandy sauce. It is simply amazing. The only barrier is during lunch. The entrees come with white or fried rice with no veggies or meat. No exception!

My parents have been here before and my mom has been telling me I need to try it out. We just finished dinner and I have to say this place is amazing! I live in Chicago now and love all kinds of Asian cuisines. I’ve been to many restaurants in the city and I cannot think of any that come close to this restaurant. The variety here is also very impressive. Anything from Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai, Korean, and more! And all the dishes are exceptionally good! If I could give it more than 5 stars I definitely would!

Amazing food !! Very tasty and delicious. Tue restaurant looked alright. Only problem is the service. They gave us beef and broccoli instead of Chicken and broccoli. It was a take out order and we did not have the energy to go back and change it. Also they charged us for the beef which was more expensive than chicken. Thankfully we do not have any restrictions with beef so we were okay . Anyone who is completely a non beef eater hopefully should not have this experience. So be careful to check your order if you are getting take out. We got the pan fried noodles, chicken and string beans and chicken fried rice.
