My husband ate here for the first time a few weeks ago. The food was good as we ordered dine in. We ordered the chow mein, could’ve had more chicken in it if not a tad bit more larger pieces, the beef and broccoli was very flavorful and my husband liked it better than most Chinese restaurants we’ve ate from, my favorite dish was the orange chicken appetizer. Not sure where the Muslim cuisine is on the menu. Food was pretty more pricey than your neighboring restaurants for nearly the same quality and flavor hence me docking a star from the rating. There is an ice cream machine where everyone ordering from this restaurant gets a free classic vanilla flavored ice cream that you serve yourself. That was my overall favorite out of the whole restaurant.

Horrible food. Ordered Sweet and Sour chicken where the chicken was stale and no taste to it other than just sweet sauce. Chicken fried rice was smelling with stale veggies. Mongolian Lamb was just shredded lamb with nothing in it. House chowmein was better than all other items. Yet it was not great. Overall, terrible food at a premium price. Will not recommend this place at all.

quick serve... yummy ? food.. with it halal

Awesome halal food. Will try again!

Halal Chinese food, nothing better. Portions are generous and every plate is made carefully, so delicious! The family enjoys ordering here for the holidays as well.

Amazing Islamic cuisine ??*no pork*Free vanilla ice cream ?*might need to wait a little longer during peek timing

Mixed feeling on this one. We ordered takeout twice, the first time was pretty good.The second time (New Year's Eve.) the food was bad, the beef tasted spoiled, lamb was weird and even the Cho Main had burned taste.But I think the biggest problem of this place is the lack of staffing, there is no reason in the world that you wait more than one our outside the restaurant for your order (+the original time of the order 1.5 hours before to a total of 2.5 hours for 5 dishes), in both times.

I had multiple times eating in Ma’s a few years ago. I had very good experience with them in those days. But today I felt different. For somehow there were so many people waiting outside for picking up the carry out orders. This made all waiters and waitresses were super busy so the service for dining in was pretty bad. Because of the same reason, the food itself was also not good anymore. Basically, you paid for good experience of dining in, but you got the carry out quality on both food and service. I hope they can draw a line between the dining in and the carry out.

I ordered some onion bread from here or at least my father did. It was warm! We might consider coming back again some time!

Bad Chinese food. The guy at the front desk is rude too and not very nice. Went here after 10 years. Had high expectations like a decade ago. Only reason it seems popular is due to halal food catering to the Muslim patrons.Beef Noodle and scallion bread had no flavor. Other lunch menu items were so so.
