The restaurant presents a perplexing dichotomy—it boasts a favorable location yet appears to struggle with consistency in delivering appetizing Chinese cuisine. Patrons encountering takeout orders often find them lacking in quality, with dishes such as sweet and sour chicken inundated by an overwhelmingly saccharine sauce that overshadows the culinary spectrum. The crispy duck, a reputedly classic dish, reportedly arrives pre-shredded, sometimes cold, and occasionally described as more fatty than crisp. Menu staples like prawn toast and chicken satay deviate unappealingly from expectations—soggy and missing crucial accompaniments like peanut sauce. Yet, there are glimpses of better execution, such as the special chow mein, which manages to hold its ground amid otherwise over flavored offerings. Despite issues with execution, delivery service is commendably swift, aiming to click with the convenience-seeking crowd.
