Restaurant inspection results are kept by the city or county health department; many publish them online or post the latest grade at the door.
For table service a tip of 15–20% is customary; at counter-service places tipping is optional.

Rice looked and tasted wierd and the rice was very greasy. Looked like it was just reheated. Won't be ordering from here. It was the first and my last. Apart from the food ,they were very nice.

Really good place with tasty food at a cheap price and the best quality. The overall experience was very good, the service was nice, and everything felt worth the money. Would definitely recommend.

Not the best looking place but, RIDICULOUSLY low price, it is crazy. Portion is very large for some dishes. One egg foo young = two egg foo young in other places. One orange chicken = 1.5 orange chicken in other places... AND cheaper... very hard to believe, in this economy. AND the lady gave me extra fried rice. They only have 2 people, so they may miss your call, just come here and be nice to them. People who gave 1 star, you are out of your mind. Please go get some junky fried chicken elsewhere for $30 while I enjoy meat + vegi here for less than $10. :)

Horrible experience we ordered for delivery for the first time to try a new place . My husband ordered the boneless spare ribs order and general tos chicken . The order of general tos chicken the chicken texture was horrible the fried rice had no flavor and the boneless ribs with tostones had pieces of green glass . When I called to tell them was was going on they took it as a joke and I was upset told them it would’ve been a whole different story if my husband would’ve swallowed or gotten his gum cut . They had the nerve to tell me to bring back the food container and I refused all I said was be more cautious of your kitchen and where you guys store or cook your food . I wish I could take the star away they came back and gave us $8.00 and took the food I will never order from them .

This place is the best Chinese food in Jersey City. Always amazing food and it has its own organic tasting flavor vs the pure syrup or loads of oil other restaurants use.. thank you for the amazing food, only 1 thing, please install a Visa card machine in your restaurant would be a great addition to your restaurant! 5 stars today and always!
