“ Best Chinese in Penn Hills and good prices! I always do their take out and everything is so hot and great! ”
“ This restaurant's cuisine is beyond what you can even expect, at a fraction of the cost. I will not stop ordering the Chicken Mei Fun for the low cost of 11.73 I had my first date here as a teenager, and the only regret I have is that there is not enough support for this business to keep their lunch and dinner special buffets running. Out of every kitchen I've ever had the pleasure of spending money at, I can easily say this was the best value, the best service, and family oriented from the brick and mortar, to the customer service and satisfaction. Please, do their family the honor of giving them your experience and honest opinion. ”
“ Greatest tasting Chinese food in the whole Pittsburgh area ”
“ The food is always hot and delicious! I love that the food is not salty. The service is always excellent. Always a nice warm friendly greeting when you walk into the restaurant. I typically order takeout and it's great for that. There's tons of menu options and budget friendly options which is a plus. ”
“ They were very quick to take my order and prepare my food. I just stopped by on a whim to get takeout. Lunch was little under 8 and very tasty. More reasonable than fast food and much more tasty. I will definitely be back to try other things. I got Sheshaun pork, fried rice and it comes with an egg roll. ”
“ I work down the street from this place and I tried it for the very first time. Good place to eat. I hope you enjoy your food like I did. ”
“ A pretty typical Chinese food place. The food is good and fairly priced- you even get the egg roll with your meal. The restaurant is a little dimly lit and no one greeted me when I walked in. But, when someone was able to come she was very polite and quick to get me taken care of. We will be getting more food from here for sure. ”
“ Big fan of Chef Chen! It’s super close (right next to the McDonald’s on 380 & offers great tasting dinners QUICK & at a value. I could eat their chicken lo mein for every meal for the rest of my life and be fat & happy. ”
