Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Great place for inexpensive but tasty Chinese food."
"Los guisados están muy buenos pero pésimo servicio les pedí tortillas tres beses y solo se reian"
"Porciones aceptables, el agua de sabor muy dulce, tuve que comprar un bote de agua pura de un litro ( $35 pesos por cierto) para bajarle el dulzor, si quieres llenarte sin gastar mucho (que era lo que yo buscaba jeje) es buena opción. Si eres de paladar exigente no lo recomiendo."
"Llegamos temprano, la comida ya estaba lista y caliente para servir. Todo muy rico, bien preparado y de buen sabor. En las mesas tienen soya, salsa agridulce, Sriracha, y salsa macha para que le pongas lo que quieras a tu comida sin levantarte al mostrador."
"Me gustó mucho la comida en especial el de res con brócoli, también me gustó mucho el aceite de chiles que ponen en cada mesa, igualmente las demás salsas tradicionales que acostumbran poner en los restaurantes chinos. En nuestro paquete incluía un vaso de agua de jamaica . Muy buena atención, sí lo recomiendo."
"사장님이 매우 친절해요!! 메뉴도 잘 안내해주시고, 자리도 마련해주셨어요. 찾는게 있었는데 메뉴에 없어서 고민했더니 편의점에서 사와도 된다고 허락해주셔ㅛ어요. 그리고 양이 매우 많아요. 매우매우"
"La pasta y el arroz no es malo, pero tampoco me termino de convencer. Para mi gusto no le encontré sabor. A comparación del pollo agridulce a la naranja y pollo en salsa de ostión que tienen mucho sabor, me encantaron. En cuanto el servicio y ambiente fue rápido y agradable"
"Compramos dos combos chicos, el guisado fue pollo en salsa de ostion picante, estuvo muy rico, mi acompañante pidió pollo a la naranja y también estaba rico y si comes ahí te regalan un vaso de agua o puedes comprar un refresco para acompañar. La pasta y el arroz a mi consideración no estaban mal solo les falta sabor/sazon (a ambos) y al arroz cocción porque estaba aún duro. Todo lo demás muy bien y tienen buena atención, siento que lo la relación calidad-precio es buena."
