New ownership. They've made some changes. Remodeled front of the house looks nice. They've raised prices. That's understandable, and some things were added to the combination plate to increase the value. Including cheese puffs is a plus. The little seafood fritters they now include are disgusting. (And yes, I do like seafood).
Soup is now larger and still decent.
Still can't spare much in the way of vegetables in their fried rice and rice wasn't completely cooked.
The deal breaker - They changed the Tsao's chicken to huge chunks of white meat - not nearly as good as the tasty little bits the place used to serve, and the new batter gets soggy quickly.
Also, they now charge extra for chili oil, which was never the case under old ownership.
Overall, I'm not impressed.

The new owners have really made the effort to give a varied and very good selection to dine in or take out. We have done both to make sure the quality and service is consistent....and it was exactly how you always hope a restaurant will be. The preparation and portions give you your money's worth.
The restaurant scene in our area keeps getting better.

I went in to try a few different things. Being from New England I like comparing the Chinese food so I always order too much. i like everything I ordered. Everything had a good taste to it and the portions were big. We ate it there and took the rest home. My only complaint would be the teriyaki chicken seemed overcooked but still tasted fine. I would definitely go thee again.

Recently renovated, the inside looks good (I think they took out their indoor seating though). The menu has also been updated but they still made a dish that was on the old one and not listed on the new. Being probably the only original resturant when they built the shopping center, their food recipes have only improved over the years (first moved to Fairfield in 1996). Though moved away, it is one of my husband's favorite Chinese places. He is from Brooklyn and is very picky about Chinese and pizza. Blessed that I still have family in the neighborhood, I will stop and order food to pick up when driving through. The staff have always been friendly and the food is delicious!

Honestly I did a custom tip and I was going to tip! When the delivery guy got to my house he didn't want to hand my 15 year old daughter our food and kept asking for a tip! I was going to give him a tip but after not wanting to hand her the food and kept asking for a tip, it really pissed me off and it's not the first time we get treated poorly I wanted to give this place another chance because the food is good but service is terrible!!!

Got General Tso's and Sesame Chicken, shrimp fried rice and Wonton Soup to go. All were very good. Portions, packaging and flavor were on point. Resturant itself is small but efficient. Parking may be an issue depending on when you pick up your food.

Shrimp Fried Rice
Decided to be different and order Chinese food for the family for Christmas. The kids love Chinese chicken wings, so I purchased 3 orders and asked them to fry them easy, and this is the garbage they sent me. Keep in mind, these chicken wings are eight dollars per 4, so this was 24 bucks worth of trash. I don't even think my garbage can enjoyed it.
The food came an hour late, cold, and an order of white rice was missing. That's what I get for trying to skip cooking on Christmas day. Never again!
The sweet and sour sauce is so watered down it is literally just water with food coloring.
