"My first time here. Nice friendly people, place is nice and clean for a small place. I only waited about 10 minutes for my food cooked fresh. I included updated menus that are posted on the countertop window. When I was looking online I couldn't find anything recent. They accept cash only. I got a large beef and broccoli. This would be good if you can't handle strong flavors. It was cooked good it just didn't have much flavor. I put some ginger and some sauce on it, it was better. Tomorrow I will make some fried rice with my leftovers. I don't think they have an online presence so stop by and check it out. Don't forget to bring cash to tip! Use your leftover change, every bit helps."

"They have the best chicken or shrimp fried rice ever. The portion that they give you is unbelievable. You can feed 3ppl off of a small box and at least 5+ people off of a large container. The only bad thing is that they only accept cash. So be prepared when you go!!"
