Definitely my favorite Chinese take out restaurant. Their prices are on the high side, but the portions are generous and the food is good. This is a sit down restaurant but it's a small place and it's always full. That is the only reason I didn't give it five stars on atmosphere, but the fact that it's always full should give you an indication on how good the food is.

I’ve grown up in Chula Vista and this has always been a go to Chicken spot for my family and myself. Crunchy, savory, and great kick of spices for your taste buds. After 11 years away the chicken has not changed and I am overjoyed that it’s flavor is still around. The fried rice is a perfect compliment to the chicken. The egg drop soup is so hot and soothing going down, not salty like other Chinese restaurants. The touch of corn adds an extra depth of flavor. There free appetizer chips with sweet sauce just tickles the taste buds and prepares you for the entree if you don’t get full off of it first.
