Moved to the area last fall. This is my new favorite restaurant. Period. Anything you order is so flavorful. My favorites are Hong Kong chicken special, Mongolian beef, and General Ching's (Tso) chicken.

We're hurting for quality Chinese food offerings in this area (Ontario,) so out of them all, we've decided this was the best. Nothing was too bland, soupy, overcooked, etc., that we've experienced at other places. If you need a Chinese food fix and you don't feel like driving to at least Nampa, I'd recommend this place to at least try.

The service was exceptional, professional, courteous and genuinely nice. We ordered a meal for two and were quite surprised at the portions in fact took quite a bit home. It was served hot and extremely flavorful. We highly recommend and will definitely return and bringing others with!!! The decor is less important to us, the focus is the dining experience and the company we are with. It is simply decorated and very clean.

It's the only Chinese food in Payette, so in light of that it's pretty good. There are things that could be better, but we enjoy the food. Value for the money is good. We will keep coming back!

This is great American Chinese food served by really nice people. Hard to beat that. They accommodated my vegetarian request, and got us served quickly right before closing. We are traveling with my parents to get them to Arizona and my dad said," write their name down, I want to come back!"

Awesome food. I especially love the sweet n sour soup - never had it made quite this way before. It's spicy and sweet at the same time - and so very good. I like to get a bowl to go home and have the next day or two. Food selection is good - too many choices at times. Highly recommend this place

My absolute favorite spot to eat in Payette! We love the people who own it and the grub is always good. Tried the curry chow mein after reading another review on here and it was SO good. If you like curry and don't mind a little heat - it's worth trying!
