the soup is good, and the fried rice is ok the pepper steak was super good just wish there was more beef so many veggies and the crab puff are the best
The Chinese food here is very delicious. My favorite is the triple delight. The three meats are beef chicken and shrimp It has several vegetables like broccoli, carrots, snap peas, water chestnuts and mushrooms The egg rolls are good too The owner is behind the counter so you will get great service!
OMG, definitely the best Chinese restaurant in Laredo. Came here because saw really good opinions in Google so decided to give it a try, and what a surprise. Although some dishes might seem a bit pricey, believe me it's totally worth it. We ordered the Dumplings (steamed) to start, they tasted fresh and juicy, also the side sauce that comes with them was very tasty. As main dishes we went for the Szechuan Happiness which is under the House Masterpieces, the ingredients felt super fresh, the amount was very generous, almost didn't finish my plate, and the 2nd dish was the Chinese border special chow mein, and oh gosh the portion was HUGE, easily could be for two people, also the flavor was amazing, it actually comes with fried noodles which are crispy and not soft as many would expect but even though it was delicious, just the perfect combination. Definitely we'll come again to try others items from the menu . They also have a few vegan/vegetarian options in the menu.
