Arrogant and degrading employee working the front counter. Don't ask any questions at this restaurant, you will get scolded by the short old man working the cash register. The food was Bland to say the least. But the attitude of the worker was very spicy. Don't waste your time coming here. Go to another place with friendly employees who know how to handle customers politely.

They serve up a decent cat there.............

Rotten attitude from the worker.I ordered pork fried rice. The pork fried rice did not look like or taste like any fried rice I have had before. It's flavorless. It looked like plain white rice with a couple of little pieces of egg and pork in it. When I returned to the counter with it and asked if my order was a mistake or if it got mixed up with somebody else's order, the employee snapped at me. And said if you don't like it, leave! Being yelled at by 60 year old guy working the cash register at a restaurant is a unique experience. Unique and hilarious. If I want bad food served with a laugh and being insulted, I will go to a comedy club. I only wish that I could have caught this bizarre interaction on camera.

San Dong Rice. I used to come to this place almost 20 years ago when worked over there. Still the same great food.

This is my absolute favorite restaurant near Milwaukee airport. The food is always fantastic and no matter what I order I am always delighted with it! Servers are also great and always efficient, happy and polite. We are so fortunate to have this place in town.

Idk why but they do Chinese takeout different in a good way. This place looks abandoned on the outside (which I love about it) but inside its clean as a whistle and food is amazing. Try the cashew chicken if you know what’s good for you.

I thought this little hole in the wall restaurant would have been a diamond in the rough in MKE. Turns out it wasn’t. Crab rangoons were the worst I’ve ever tasted - all fried wrapper and it’s just straight cream cheese inside. No seasonings or dipping sauce. I barely made it through one Rangoon, and I usually love them!Jajangmyeon was the worst I’ve had, and I’ve eaten the Chinese and Korean versions of them. The sauce was weirdly sour and the noodles weren’t chewy and delicious. They had a gummy texture to them, yuck.Avoid at all costs unless you’re drunk and need something greasy and filling to soak up the alcohol. And even then, go to another place that will at least give you something tasty for your buck.

We called in for a take out order for 6 people. They were able to accommodate us for a 45 minute pick up time after letting us know the order would be ready in 15 minutes. They got our rather large and diverse order perfectly. Everything was hot and all the food was absolutely excellent. We sampled nearly everything on the menu and nothing disappointed. We live a half hour away and it is now our go to place for Asian cuisine.

Horrible service !It was the first time there and I ask what would they recommend for my daughter how is 4 years old; the man answered in a very rude way that there was nothing for her. I breathed out and asked for fried rise and some muddled soup.They don’t have anything for kids.Then , my order was not completed, I asked for the remaining of my order and they again were rude. I asked for lime and they said they didn’t have , they said “lemons are expensive” .Besides that , the rice was disgusting and the soup needed salt. Horrible , save your money to eat in another place.

Bad service and mediocre Chinese food. Staff was very rude. I don't like big chains like Panda Express but they're much better than this and that's a low bar tbh
