I stopped by this restaurant, today (Sat), at 12:30 pm. I didn't see many customers. The buffet was not even average (one table). A few pans had only a literal handful of food in them. I thought a kitchen worker, who stirred that little bit of food, was going to replenish the near-empty trays. No such luck. Anyway, I thought I'd get at least a semi-decent take-out meal for the advertised luncheon price of $6.95. OH NO! The take-out container is weighed. My $6.95 lunch was priced at $12+. The two young women tried to tell me they thought I'd eaten in, when I asked for a take-out container. How lame is that! I ended up leaving them with the collected food, instead of being ripped off. I explained to THEM, there was NO sign anywhere that indicated take-out was handled in such a manner. I don't feel bad leaving without paying for something I didn't ask for. As far as a return trip? A definite no. There are better Chinese restaurants, in town, just not as convenient. I wonder what was this restaurant's last health department score, as well.

I usually get carry out. The food is great. I love their hot/sour soup, good egg rolls and their entrees are cooked just right. It's better than most of the chinese restaurants.
