“ It's a staple for takeout Chinese food in the Sault. There is some seating inside, but us locals usually just take out. Very friendly staff! ”
“ Very good food with a ton of options! Service is always great here and has a comfortable atmosphere. ”
“ The food is always excellent, and the staff is so nice and welcoming! Great experience, and I can't recommend it enough! ”
“ First time visit the Soo. Instead of running the mill fast food - burgers, pizzas, we opted for Chinese. To be fair didn't have any expectation, food turned out decent and priced affordably (no more than a combo meal at any fast food). We ordered 3 dishes for a family of four and it was plenty enough. Chicken curry has nice flavor and good kick (it's not mild), seasame chicken was fried well and stir fried flavorably, and the shrimp lo mein tasted good! Oh - except for the chicken the others were dinner specials so they also came with an egg roll. Fried rice is done well, not too dark or salty like other places with an overdose of dark soy. So if you are in the Soo, give it a try. Not far from downtown. ”
“ Honestly, I'm extremely torn between 3-4 stars. I had a lot of locals recommend this place, and given it's proximity to my house and the really affordable pricing, I opted to give it a shot one night. I got fried rice and a few egg rolls for less than $10, and ready in less than 15 minutes. I walked over, and both the service and ambiance were nothing of note. I was a little confused on where the front entrance was, but appeared to be on the main road (Ashmun). I walked home and found everything to be incredibly hot which was great after years of cold delivery, but found the food to be incredibly bland. While it looks homemade and isn't bad for the price, a little sauce would go a long way here. Very Americanized, but again, for the price there isn't much to complain about when you get a hot, fresh meal that quick and cheaply. ”
“ It's not much to look at as a Restaurant, but oh my Word!! I ordered a large House Lo mein, it was so Delicious that I couldn't stop eating it. And it was opened on Sunday and it doesn't close until 9pm WOW !!!! Check for Amazing Delicious Food, Check for open on Sunday and double check for staying opened until 9 pm here in the Sault Woozers. I'm a very very pleased Resident. Thank you China Cates ”
“ Good Chinese food prepared well, ready earlier than promised, and reasonably priced. I got takeout and though it looked like you could eat in, it doesn't look like they have a lot of folks taking that option. I tried sweet and sour pork and my wife had chicken fried rice. The sweet and sour pork comes with an egg roll and what I believe was pork fried rice. The food was good, hot and ready when I arrived 5 minutes early. Service was fast and friendly. Parking on the street was easy, I didn't even check to see if off street parking was available. I'll be back. ”
“ Our food was prepared quickly, everything tasted good, and no one had any stomach issues afterwards which is really great. It's your average Chinese place since the food and experience wasn't exceptional but I would eat there again if invited. ”
