I picked up the order and was surprised by the fact that it was a ghost kitchen, but was pleasantly surprised by the Dan Dan Noodles! They were amazing! Most other places are flavorless and dry, but these were everything but that. Great portion, amazing price, and great flavor!

Ordered Delivery - Dan Dan noodles, Beef with Broccoli and an egg roll. The noodles were not only way too spicy and overly salty but the container was only 1/3 full. Picture shows the container before eating. The meat Beef and Broccoli was tough and chewy. The accompanying fried rice, tasteless. The spring roll was soggy and tasted like it had been microwaved. Will not be ordering from here again.

I always order the 5 Spice Wings, but lately they just haven’t been the same. I was a bit disappointed. They’re noticeably darker and slightly soggier than before, missing that crispy texture I used to love, they just don’t hit the same. I also consistently request “all flats” by phone and in the order notes, but never actually receive all flats. I really miss the old style wings that were golden brown and perfectly crispy. Bring those back!!!

Random find for dinner delivery last night ended up being solid 🔥 Easy packaging, good flavor and value; will definitely order again.

Look, I do not know anything about mixed reviews, but I decided to take a risk. I received: great, fresh food full of flavor; beef and veggies were very fresh and fried to perfection full of flavor; noodles and not overdone and are fried to good texture. Crab rangoons are filled with good quality meat and, and it feels like fried in butter rather than oil. And, their egg roll, it is twice as big as one offered at any other standard places and packed with flavor as well. So yes, for the price, it is a GREATTTTT option! Thank you ☺️

This General Tso’s chicken hits the spot—crispy, saucy, and just the right amount of sweet and spicy. Honestly, I could eat this every week and not get tired of it. Total comfort food vibes. Highly recommend if you're craving something tasty and satisfying.

I enjoyed the food-- quite reminiscent of childhood Americanized Chinese food! It's comfortable food. The lo mein was perfectly greasy but could benefit with some chili oil and the fried rice was alright! Cheers!

Overall, the food is good but there were a few misses. We (unknowingly) ordered the spiciest wonton soup ever! The wontons were good, but I couldn't sip the broth without coughing from the spice. I'm pretty good with spice but this was too much. Not sure if I just got a strong batch. The mala dry pot was good. A little on the salty side but one of my favorites of our order. The char kway teow noodles were awesome and reasonably priced. Made for even better leftovers the next day. The green beans were my favorite but I was upset because we ordered the large size (24oz) and we received a small portion that was only 10oz. Seems dramatic but I happened to have my food scale handy so it was easy to measure. Was upset that we paid extra for the large size and received something less than their small portion (16 oz). It's a ghost kitchen and was hard to find from the outside. However, the actual pick up was great. Service was friendly.

Terrible service. Ordered late at night--limited options, so I chose Lucky Mao. Delivery instructions were clear, and I responded to the driver's call with a text right away. He claimed my bell was broken--lie. I have security footage; he never even approached the door. Restaurant called asking if I got the food as the app marked it delivered. While I'm still on the phone, the driver took off with my food. Told the restaurant to cancel if he's not back in 10 mins. Then they lied to Uber Eats saying they couldn't access the building. Dishonest and disgusting service. Don't trust them.

If I could give zero stars I would. If you're looking to wait four hours (or more - or indefinitely?) then this is the place for you!! We placed an order before 6pm and it is now after 10pm. -- 3 "dispatched" drivers have "been on their way" "within 10-25 minutes" "prioritized delivery" for over four hours. No delivery yet. Absolutely insane. Do not recommend. Steer clear. Alarming red flags. Steer clear at all costs. Scammers.

The single worst Chinese food I have ever had in my life. Had General Tso's chicken which looked promising because it was in a rich, dark looking sauce. Bizarrely the food had no flavor except the scorched aftertaste of a too hot wok. The chicken itself was slimy and spongy meat with chunks of fat in it which was just gross. The Lo Mein it came with was in the same dark sauce but was similarly flavorless. I don't even know how this is possible. Signature Orange Chicken tasted chewy and old. Kung pao egg roll was the only bit with some flavor. It was just ok, but was mushy and seemed as if it were sitting around for quite some time. Reviewers on GrubHub have said that this restaurant is actually a ghost kitchen. Google street view confirms that. It looks like they operate out of a nondescript office building. Definitely DO NOT order from this place.

I get delivery from here all the time and it's consistently great. Good Dan Dan and spicy steak

The chicken fucking sucked, lo mein was like *fine*. but here's where the story gets insane. the rice. Where do I even begin, this is the definition of repugnant. I can't even think to imagine what other awful things come out of this kitchen. Honestly I thought it was a joke it was so bad, I genuinely died of laughter thinking there was another rice in my bag. i wouldn't even recommend this restaurant to the rats. I honestly could fart out better Chinese than this kitchen. good luck with your next food inspection! You're going to need it.

Great Chinese takeout - loved the packaging and dan dan noodles especially. The packaging kept my food really hot - was surprised how well kept it kept everything.
