This restaurant used to be our favorite place to order Chinese food. Then it was sold by the very pleasant and gregarious couple that owned the restaurant. And it immediately spiraled downward.Last night my wife tried to call 5 times to place a pick-up order and no one answered. Then on the sixth attempt, someone did finally pick up, but then immediately disconnected the line. I guess they don't want any business.Every time we go to eat in the restaurant, the staff is incredibly dismissive, rude, and aloof. The food quality itself immediately deteriorated once new ownership took over. The ironic thing is the quality is now very poor, yet the prices have skyrocketed.I understand the context of inflation, but the $11 menu item I previously ordered, now cost $18. In other words, the price point of the much poorer food quality has now risen roughly 35%.Needless to say, my wife and I will not be spending our hard-earned money in the future on a restaurant with impertinent, unpleasant, and ill-mannered owners.

I see why this place has a supposed 3.8 stars rating. If you look closely you will find numerous reviews that say 3 years ago, 4 years ago, 5 years ago which was when it was run by the original owners. Back then this was one of my all time favorite places. But reading all the current reviews, which would be since the new owners took over, I will never walk into this place again and let it ruin a wonderful memory of what this place used to be. The original owners were so nice, extremely friendly, made you feel like family. And the food was simply spectacular. I will not dishonor the memory of that wonderful family and their wonderful food by going to this cheapened, poor version of what I know to be Happy China!

Food not too authentic but it's not bad either. For instance, I enjoyed the Sichuan shrimp, but it was not spicy and basically just an American style stir fry. The sesame balls were great though and they give you a lot

Way overpriced, the portions are smaller than normal lunch plates and the rice is extremely dry with no flavor. The prices online aren’t correct. I’ll NEVER eat here again. Staff was very rude

Paid $120 for food and was barely enough to feed 4 kids. Will never be back. Potions are very small even when you are ordering dinner sizes.

Before the pandemic, this was high quality, somewhat higher priced, reasonable portioned food. Unfortunately, it's no longer on our list. I didn't realize the owner changed.

Wow over priced! I ordered take out yesterday evening. 4 vegetable fried rice. Which aren’t very big, and 12 vegetable egg roles. $86.00! The eggroles which are my favorite were not good at all. Won’t go there again.

Im sorry to say this used to be our favorite place for a quick Chinese meal. The original owners I believe sold it and I'm sad that the new owners quality control and food is nowhere near the same. Food looks questionable and I'm not sure about the cleaness of the restaurant.

The food here is ok but not as good as other Chinese restaurants in the area.

Sorry but we couldn’t even eat it. Chicken tasted funny and general Tso was just disgusting. Almost sour.
