Very friendly people who serve really good food.

Food is always fresh and very good, workers are very nice and the restaurant is clean

We eat here a lot. It's always a pleasure to talk to Joy, the owner, while her husband, the chef, is hard at work making your meal. Everything thing we order here is good. Try the fried wonton with meat and garlic sauce, you won't be disappointed. When your food arrives ask for some chili paste on the side. They make the best, and some of the hottest chili paste in Houma. If you're adventurous, tell Joy to make it spicy when it's cooked. Don't worry, there's a snowball stand right outside to cool you off.

Best Chinese food in Houma and I think I’ve tried them all now. Couldn’t ask for friendlier employees either. Ordering online is such a time saver and makes for easy pickup. Restaurant is bright and clean and pleasant. Have ordered from here several times and haven’t been disappointed yet. Chicken with garlic sauce is wonderful. Hot & Sour soup is just how I like it. Generous portions, you won’t go hungry.

Went for lunch and got the perfect amount to eat. Slightly expensive I guess but everything is expensive here at the end of 2023 so can't really fault them for that. I got the kung pao chicken combo which was really good and my friend got one of the 'diet' plates, which came with some sort of low cal soy sauce ginger sauce which she really enjoyed. It's one of the only Chinese food places I've seen that's offered any sort of healthy options in an easily identifiable way. Would eat here again anytime.

I will visit here each time I stay in Houma with My Husband for work! Everything we order was delicious, Try the Philly cheese steak eggrolls.. Yum!

I've been eating here for about 7 years now and I have never received bad food. Their consistency is flawless. If you want good Chinese cuisine, you should give them a try. Also the service is very nice and welcoming.

Made a mistake placing my ordering and they remade it and made it perfect. Great spot in Houma for great Chinese food. Food taste great!
