Wonderful food, atmosphere, and service!

The service was great. The ambience was method and contemplative, like somewhere I would go on a date. I'm not a Chinese food connoisseur so I cannot say expertly whether the quality of the food was good or bad. However, what I had was tasty, the rice was perfectly cooked, the pork dumplings were wonderful, and the house tea is a must.

My wife and I and my Mom ate here today. Everything was very good. I did forget to take photos unfortunately. We had vegetable egg rolls and steamed pork dumplings for an appetizer. Both were very good. The egg rolls came with a sauce like the gold colored duck sauce you get in a packet. Not my fav, but it works. Wished they had a meat egg roll. Dumplings were good too a very good sauce.We ordered beef and broccoli, General's chicken, lo mein noodles with vegetables that came with 1 personal sized white rice, and and upgrade to personal sized fried rice. The lo mein noodles with vegetables do not come with a side of rice.The general's chicken was not too spicy at all, unless you ate those dark chili pepper pieces. Then it has a great kick of heat, which I love. The ladies really liked the General's and they don't like heat so best of both worlds.Very good noodles and beef with broccoli. Large portions per item. We easily ate our fill and had some leftovers. You could feed 4 with 3 items, but you'll need to order extra rice as it's a pretty small serving each. We ordered the lo mein with vegetables as a rice replacement and it worked out great.We definitely recommend eating here. Little on the pricey side, averaged about $12-$13 and change per main item. We had three waters, the general's chicken, beef and broccoli, lo mein with vegetables, two egg rolls, the six dumplings, and upgrade to fried rice totaling $55 and some change before tip. Only saw the main entrance but very clean and pleasant interior. And oddly, and don't laugh, but the best tasting water. Give it a try. Very slow at 12:20 on this Sunday

Everything was wonderful! The atmosphere, wait staff, food...We will come back often. Possibly the best waitress we've ever had, she was attentive and so personable!

First time been here,Our server is very helpfull and friendly, she keep checking our table and drink.Food was awesome also. Szechwan chinese won ton was on point as appetizer. Their west lake beef soup also rich of flavour. Deep fried pork is crunchy and bit too dry. Their peking duck also great, and their seafood noodle also great, and loved their sauce

Loved the variety to choose from. I had a shrimp and vegetable dish with some spice to it and really loved it. My friend had the tofu with shrimp, barbecue pork, imitation crab and vegetables and she loved it. She had hers made without squid. We had leftovers. We will be back

Honey pecan prawns were fabulous! I am staying at a nearby hotel and found this nearby restaurant online for delivery to the hotel which was very prompt. I may have to move to Champaign, Illinois now because I think I have a new favorite restaurant! The prawns were huge, the honey sauce with pecans was delicious, and the quantity generous. The crab rangoons were large and very good as well. I don't know whether the rest of the items on their menu are as good as the honey pecan prawns, but if you love huge shrimp, this restaurant is the place to go!

Regardless of what you order you'll get a fantastic meal here. I strongly recommend getting one of their house specials. A very clean and neat restaurant, great service, and great prices.

Always eat here when in town. Wonderful food, atmosphere and service. Many menu choices to please anyone.

Very nice Chinese restaurant. Not incredibly authentic or special but they have a lot of options and the food was very tasty! The atmosphere and the service was also excellent!
