OK I never write reviews on this sort of thing but I had too on this one. I just mioved to Sammamish and was looking for a great chinese take out place. I stopped by and ordered two entrees on the family dinner menu for two.

I have to say you can get better chinese at Safeway. Honestly this was as bad as it gets and I won't return. I love asian food in general and passed up the two teryaki places close by, what a mistake! And for the price? Give me a break. My order was 2 persons and it was $28.00, the Geberal Tso chicken was heavily breaded, soaked in grease and the Chicken with vegetables I ordered for my wife she wouldnt eat. I have seen better vegies in a garbage can. Im not sure why the other reviews are so high considering my experience. Literally I placed the order, waited for it and went home to eat...gross..THUMBS DOWN BIG TIME!

• Pros: NONE
• Cons: food is no good

Good food + Good service + Good prices = Great value

Went in about a month ago after reading a couple reviews on the place. We had yet to go to a Chinese restaurant in the Issaquah area since we moved here a few months ago and decided to try for some that evening. As one other reviewer mentioned, the place seems a bit seedy on the outside, but don't let that fool you. It's actually clean and pleasant inside. Sure it's got the Chinese decor & color scheme, but in that sense it's kind of a quaint place. It wasn't very busy and we were seated promptly. They have a great dinner combo selection and our drinks and soups were served quickly. The appetizers and food that followed were good and the portions for the main dishes were quite large. Service was good and they checked on us regularly to make sure we were fine with drinks, rice, etc. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone out in this area & I know we'll be back.

• Pros: Prompt service, pricing, large portions
• Cons: Color scheme
