Excellent food, great service. Rivals the best of Boston’s Chinatown establishments. I’d eat here any day. Highly recommended. Try the desserts too.

I have only ever gotten take out here but I love it and we get it all the time. Our favorite dish is the special spicy tofu, and we usually get veggies fried rice and veg spring rolls as well. If you couldn't tell already, my wife and I are vegetarian and are pleased with the wide selection of fresh and flavorful dishes! Not too greasy or too sweet, real flavor. We have also ordered dishes for friends that include the meat dishes and the beef lo mein seems to be a hit. I appreciate the convenient online ordering system, and the takeout bag is a grab and go table so no waiting in line to get your food or sign anything. I love this as someone picking up and am sure the folks eating in appreciate that there are not take out customers standing around crowding up the space. Very friendly and efficient process, good quality food and generous portions!

That was filling. I always enjoy the food here. I like that they serve more choices than the usual takeout stir fry. That's you, Gen Tsao Chicken, I am talking about. Yes, you have that, if that is what you care for, but you may also just want rice porridge and dimsum one day or a sichuan dish on another day. Each one is uber delicious. Top it off with some sesame balls for dessert, and you are all set. I keep coming back for more.

Place was amazing. Fried dumplings were out of this world definitely recommended! I would also suggest the appetizer of green beans... Crunchy and delicious

Absolutely delicious! We had the Special The Dancing Lobster and this dish alone was mouthwatering. The ginger is cut perfectly so you can enjoy a piece with each bite of lobster. We also had the General Chicken tso it was absolutely delicious, each bite crunchy and bursting with flavor. For sides we ordered House fried rice. This rice is a must it has chicken, shrimp, and beef and is the best rice I’ve had yet. Seating was fast and easy. Service was great especially for the crowd they had.

I’ve been looking for a restaurant to n Western Mass that serves soup dumplings and we found that and much more here! My wife just brought us here for my birthday lunch and it was amazing. Soup dumplings, scallion cakes, house chow fun and veggie rice with coconut cakes for dessert. Lovely atmosphere, very reasonable prices, nice service and, despite ordering the lunch size portion, we’re going home with leftovers.

Probably the best Chinese in the area..actually had good flavor when we ate in the restaurant. Szechuan flavor was on point. Dumplings a bit bland. Really nice waiter to our big party
