Excellent food "every time" - family owned and operated - makes a huge difference in the quality & flavor of the food, preparation, appearance and the care. Every time I call I speak to ” Eddie” who immediately knows who I am & knows my go-to, "moo goo gai pan heavy garlic" - not garlic powder, it's real minced garlic w/ "FRESH CHICKEN" with at least 3 or 4 vegetables not just two like most places every time. Eddie's brother makes delicious entrees & see their father in there once in awhile - just wish they would open up a store in Dunwoody, Georgia - yes, this is how far I have to drive to get authentic Chinese food! I'll edit this post later with photos, thank you Eddie & family for such delicious food!!

The egg rolls are the best thing on their menu. I've been here a half a dozen times and have not been as pleased as I would like to be when ordering Chinese. (I'm used to NY style). This time I tried Thai instead. Big mistake. Red curry chicken was very bland with minimal curry. Chicken was not too good/rubbery. Rice OK. Menu said red and green peppers. Came with snow peas and some unusual Asian pears instead. It was a total miss. The egg roll saved their rating.

Amazing food, nice employees, and a very charming almost cafe-like (explains the name now) atmosphere make this place a regular go-to for me. I've been to a lot of these small, takeout places and while the service is always great, the decor and overall aesthetic can be quite stiff and unappealing; these guys put clear work into theirs. I loved the music they were playing too, too bad I couldn't figure out who the artist was. They get my order right every time, it's totally affordable, and they are generous with the portions. Highly recommended.

One of the best Chinese food around, love their vegetable fried rice.

I decided to order theu door dash after seeing some good reviews and I got to say I’m very dissapointed the food was not good it was all bland and not seasoned properly flavorless the lo mein did not have salt properly was very bland also the green curry was watery tasted balance no flavor

We are very disappointed and sad to say we will be looking for a new Chinese takeout restaurant.Our family had been customers for basically 8 years.The food which used to be fresh and plentiful, has declined. We had begun noticing it over the past few years (minus 2020 ofc), but tonight was the last straw.Not only were the portions much smaller, but the pork in the fried rice were old, dry cubes, where they used to be tender slices. One of the things that impressed us in the past. Pork fried rice ordered at 6:30 on a Saturday night should be very fresh. It is a frequently ordered dish, ordered at a peak time.What is more, they quoted 15-20 minutes for pick up time. The food wasn’t even ready when husband got there, they started prepping it when he arrived.No excuse whatsoever for it to be old and dry.We also ordered pork ribs and politely asked for reasonably sized ribs. The order comes with 4 pieces, and sometimes you’ll get ribs that are like 5 inches with pieces that are 2 inches long in the bag,so 1 or 2 people eating always feel shortchanged. And we’ve never complained.This time around I asked since I was going to be “serving grown men”, and I was told “they come that way from the store” and “if any of the pieces are on the small side we’ll add an extra piece”. Not true, but I said “perfect”, expecting to at least not have any issues with it tonight.Every single piece was 2-3 inches long.And we ordered 2 orders this time (so all 8 pieces were 2-3 inches long).We just ordered last week so we know they don’t get them from the store 3 inches long, and they haven’t begun getting them that way recently.Not only did they lie, but it seems they purposely gave us only smaller pieces for asking.The ribs cost over $2 per piece retail, and they pay wholesale prices, would it hurt to give any customer, not to mention an easygoing, long time one, some reasonably sized pieces on the random occasion that they ask?I thought about calling to complain to save them the bad review, but with this kind of behavior they do not deserve it.Get the feeling based on our experience and glancing at other reviews that they maybe do well if you’re new to hook you, then once you become regular (or ask for anything) it’s different, like a bad marriage.And mind you, since we picked up the food this time so we wouldn’t have to wait 1 hr for delivery,(it’s usually 45 mins) saw the dining room.It is run down and basically a stock room, so if you’re looking to dine-in, look elsewhere.We will be.

Delicious take on every dish! Each dish has been slightly different than what I’ve experienced in other restaurants… IN A GOOD WAY!

I ordered the sesame chicken combo! It was really good… the only thing bad about it was that it was supposed to come with fried rice and they put white rice…. I would’ve just like for it to come as written on the menu.

First time ordering from china cafe I ordered online and food came as modified to ordered it was very fresh and didn't take long for delivery
