I have experienced some of the best Chinese food available, and although this wasn't the best it gets, it was pretty good and I would go there again. It smelled really good when I walked in, which is always a good sign. I ordered two easy to make and kid-friendly dishes: chicken lo-mein and sweet and sour chicken. The lo-mein didn't have as many veggies as I like, but the flavor was balanced with a slightly garlic flavor. Noodles were slightly underdone, which I prefer to overdone and mushy. There was not a lot of chicken, but the pieces were cut well and were good quality white meat. The sweet and sour chicken was ""Americanized"" and deep fried, just like I was expecting, and was also good cuts of chicken. It had the flavor I was expecting from an orange sweet and sour sauce, and the chicken was cooked so that it was soft but not tough. My toddler ate everything I gave him, which means it has to be good. Everyone else in the restaurant ordered the same thing, homemade pulled noodles with bean sauce. I am going to try that next time.\r

I did notice that the Oriental people who were seated after me received their drinks, etc, before I did, but the service was friendly. They didn't stop by my table as much as the patrons that I am assuming were their relatives or good friends, and they forgot to give me my tea which I ordered with my meal. I was already eating my meal when someone stopped by (finally) to ask me if I needed anything, and they finally brought me my tea after I reminded them. They were friendly to my toddler, also. Nothing is worse than feeling like your child isn't wanted in someone's establishment! (other than really bad food!). They also made a mistake and charged my card the wrong amount, then cancelled it, then ran it again, so I have two charges pending from my banking account. It would have been nice if they had let me know and charged my card the difference the second time. Now I just have to keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn't go through.
Pros: lots of parking, kid friendly
Cons: not a lot of food for the price (I ordered full platters thinking I would have a lot to take home)
