I moved to Apollo Beach in Feb 2024 and since then probably have eaten here 40 times and counting. My 12 year old son and I love this place. This place is at the top of my list for favorite Chinese food I've had so far after knowing my hometown favorite in Texas and culinary experiences in San Francisco, Vancouver, Hong Kong, Macau and Mainland China. So glad this place exists and the food is always on point. After trying many places in Tampa Bay, this is my favorite.

Been going here since I was like 5 and gotta say, still hands down one of the best places in the Bay Area and my absolute favorite. Family owned small business too, not some raggedy low quality chain. They’ve given me many a smile over the past 20 years, and I hope the next 20 will be the same
