The spicy noodles were great and spicier than the chili chicken or orange chicken ordered extra spicy, but still had a good spice level over all. Everything was very good, definitely on my favorites list now.

Just had their lunch special chicken Szechwan and what a disappointment. They don’t even have an egg roll with it. The had a very cheap spring roll about a fifth the size of a standard egg roll I get at every other Chinese restaurant I go to. Every piece of chicken had some fat around it. The sauce was about 90% oil The portions were very small. All places give a lot of rice- a very inexpensive item, they had about a quarter of the rice that other places have. Even the main dish was very little food. What a rip off with low quality food. I will never go to this place again and will make sure my friends avoid this place as well. There are so many Chinese restaurants better than this dive.

Five star restaurant for sure in Glenview! Come here every week! The quality is always good !

I have ordered from this place many times throughout the years and had no issues. Today I ordered food for my daughter as she is sick and does not feel well. I ordered her white rice, and plain steamed broccoli as she is allergic to many other vegetables so we tend to play it safe when ordering out. On the phone I made sure to clarify that it needed to be only broccoli. The man on the phone was very understanding and assured me it would only be plain broccoli. The first issue arose when they forgot my daughters bubble tea and a woman came to my door 10 minutes after dropping off my order smoking a cigarette she didn’t even put it out before coming to my front porch and continued smoking it when she knocked on my door. when my daughter finally got her self out of bed and opened her food she said there’s not only broccoli in here there’s a lot of other vegetables. keep in mind she is allergic to majority of vegetables so we only ordered broccoli to play it safe. when I called the restaurant to speak to them about this mistake the man immediately started yelling at me and screaming at me unprovoked I simply asked why there was more vegetables when I only ordered broccoli and he starts yelling at me claiming that I ordered more vegetables than just broccoli even though my daughter was right next to me as I ordered and heard me say just broccoli because my daughter is allergic so why would I order anything else. The food was decent the bubble tea was half melted but the customer service was atrocious I don’t recommend ordering from here if you want to have an easy meal because they will fight you on everything and play victim when they are literally the restaurant.

I don’t even think this place deserves a singular star. They are disrespectful and start yelling when you ask for the slightest change in your order. I asked for only broccoli, not any other steamed vegetables just broccoli because my daughter is allergic. I specified and they told me they would only put broccoli. The food arrived and the delivery woman was smoking a cigarette at my front door. There were multiple vegetables in my child’s dish, even though we discussed it prior. I called out of confusion and started getting screamed at and called a liar. Luckily I have all my calls on auto- record in case of things like this, and will be posting it on facebook so all my friends know not to waste their time. No refund or exchange was offered and I will not be ordering from here again. This is the worst service I have ever experienced from a restaurant!

I ordered a more expensive dish than I usually would, for the seafood. It didn’t contain 3 of the seafood ingredients listed on the menu. Bummer. Also, even the basic hot and sour soup wasn’t good— I can usually order that anywhere and enjoy it, but this one I couldn’t finish and had to throw out. They do use a lot of fresh veggies in their cooking— and quite a bit of spice if you like hot food (I do), so that was a positive. The inside looked like a nice and clean atmosphere, although I did order my food to go. Staff was very nice. There is a chance that this dish was more traditional vs. Americanized and therefore I wasn’t used to it, but I’m not sure. Overall, I’d give this restaurant a 2/5 based upon my experience of the taste of the food.

Good food. Nice ambiance

It has been several years since I ate there so I wasn't sure if if was still good. Well it was just as good, fresh and tasty as ever so I was glad I recommended it to my cousin.

We like this place and normally have good experiences. Today, though, it took 30 minutes to get our orders from the lunch menu. When the food arrived it was cold and the brown rice was hard as a rock. I was actually able to pick the rice up the from the bowl in one solid piece. At least we got the fortune cookies ?

I love their Szechwan noodle soup and Mongolian beef. Very flavorful. Will definitely order again
