You wouldn't expect this kind of food from a hole in the wall kinda place. But I tell you what, they know how to fry some chicken and give you some good fried rice with it. The portions are amazing. The sauce is awesome too. If you're looking for atmosphere and service, you're at the wrong place. Zero atmosphere and...

This is a great to get good take out since they have chinese food and american food as well. The prices are usually $10.00 or lower depending on what you want to order. They also run lunch specials - some around $5.00 or less. This Eatery manages to stay in business where other restaurants bite the dust. It's a Cary...

Good value, zero atmosphere, matter of fact service, popular takeout with local shop keepers and residents.

Cheap, fast, big portions. Great place to grab a cheap bite when you're around town and starving. Don't expect gourmet food at a place that has both chinese food and friend chicken, but they do make tasty food. Also have a good number of vegetarian foods, like the jam-packed veggie pitas.

Ate here this week. We ordered orange chix and general tso chix . Came with fried rice and decent eggrolls with shrimp in them . Total was $18. The chicken tasted like it was double breaded and double or refried. It was really really tough. I could not eat a few of the pieces they were so hard . I...
