    Like a slice of Asia. Amazing complex flavors at a steal of a price compared to the rest of Los Angeles. I came here for a quick bite to eat, and was pleased with the service and taste of the mushroom chicken. Plus, for literally $4, they filled my little Tupperware to the brim with food. I was surprisingly full, felt great, and spent nearly nothing on my meal. Inside feels like L&L Bbbq (Hawaiian chain) mixed with Panda Express. They have all their ready-made food in a hot display case. Ask to try anything as a sample, their orange chicken is quite good! There’s free parking out front. The staff is super nice, they seem like a family. The vibes are chill, clean insides.

    I chose combo number C chow mein fried rice +3 items and I choose to combine noodles and fried rice and I choose the three items for ribs and some other two items that I’m eating right now it’s up. The food is absolutely amazing. I highly recommend here with a drink and everything is $15 total but you’re gonna eat twice. Is that much food?
