Very good i love it sooooooooooooooooooooooooo much food 10/10 service 10/10 Ambiance 10/10

It took us a while to find this little gem and we've been coming here ever since. The food is always hot and delicious. Our orders are never wrong!

We've been coming here for years. We just had food delivered again last night. They are open on almost all of the holidays, and we usually even order from them on Christmas day. Our delivery yesterday, on the 4th of July, was incredibly fast. It was 30 minutes exactly, and we were surprised when they pulled in the driveway because it was so fast. I almost always get sesame tofu with the sauce on the side. Last night I got honey tofu with the the sauce on the side. The honey sauce is less heavy than the sesame sauce, and it's kind of like a warm, diluted honey. It was good, and I get both pretty regularly. I like their fried tofu in the small squares. We also got fried donuts, which are always good. We tried the french fries, which were ok. I wouldn't go out of my way for them, but I would order them again. My husband is not vegetarian, so he has a lot more options than me, and has probably eaten almost everything on the menu at least once. Chinese food is one of his favorite types of food. I just stick with my tofu. :) This is one of our favorite Chinese restaurants in Rochester. We've ordered from them a lot. I'm sure we'll order from them again. We always get it to go or have it delivered. They do have a sitting area, but it's rather small. I'd recommend getting it to go.

The restaurant has a few 2 top tables. It was clean and inviting for the little nook it was. We ordered.... Shrimp roll, little shrimp n lots of cabbage Spring roll small n crispy Hot and sour soup was not terribly spicy but chuck full of tofu, mushrooms etc and had a good consistency and flavor Green onion pancakes were the least oily n doughy I've had, generally pleasant Garlic shrimp, I've seen a lot of yelp complaints for lack of shrimp in other restaurants, probably 10 big shrimp in the order. I loved the green beans in the assortment of veggies. The sauce was abundant, flavorful, not spicy, although labeled that way on the menu. Veg lo mein was not very flavorful. Scallion beef was tender, tons of scallions and delicious sauce, again not spicy, although labeled as such. Sesame chicken, sweetish sauce, the chicken was a bit over done for my liking. They have some Thai options that looked appealing.
