    I have been eating take out from here for years. I never eat in the restaurant - clean but not fancy - paper plates and trays. The food is consistently good, not overpriced and they don't screw up your orders. That alone makes them the best deal around. It would be nice if they clearly said which menu items are vegetarian or vegan. They have plenty of options in that regard. Too bad they don't make small sizes for the vegetable dishes like they do for the others outside of the lunch special. Too bad their soups are not vegetarian. B The lunch special is a steal. My favorites are the dumplings, lo mein, and all the tofu dishes.

    Total saving grace to have a reliable Chinese takeout in the city blocks from where I was going. Tried two combos and soups. All fresh and made quickly. Happy to be here. Was unsure until I read Jareds review - then went right in. They made me cashew chicken not on the lunch menu- very accommodating and cool.
