We order occasionally because they're super close by, not because they're great food. Their lo mein is decent but usually needs more seasoning. The vegetable lo mein is better than the pork because the pork is usually really dried out. Tonight most of my chicken fingers were inedible. They were either hard and tough, both the breading and the chicken, or they were these weird balls of chicken (not "fingers") and dough that wasn't fully cooked. Honestly, the hard ones looked like they were old ones that they just re-fried to make them hot again. I cannot imagine trusting raw fish from this place. 😬 I think it's time we start driving a little farther for better quality.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

I love the food here! My boyfriend and I get takeout here quite often and the food is always delicious! Occassionally we'll dine in and it's always really nice. They are also great with my peanut and tree nut allergy. They are always very on top of giving warnings if a food wont be safe, which I greatly appreciate, and are very on top of keeping my orders safe.

Was looking for some great Chinese in the Rochester area sadly I didn’t find it here. We love spicy food and ordered our trusted dishes of Mongolian Beef and Chicken with garlic sauce. These are both identified as Hot and Spicy in the menu. They came out overly sweet and had absolutely not spice at all. The dishes were fresh and reasonably plentiful and may appeal to those wholesome like overly sweet dishes. The egg rolls were equally as disappointing consisting of an overly thick wrapper heavily stuffed with cabbage, again soulless with little other additives. Service was rushed, non-attentive. I tired to make eye contact for refills and even that was difficult. We won’t be back…
