The food was good and they were friendly when I ordered, but when the food arrived they tried to overcharge me for my order. I ordered chicken and mixed vegetables, and told them to omit the brown sauce but give me some hot oil (chili flakes in oil). When I got my food they tried to charge me $1 extra for the rice. When I pointed to the menu that said rice included, the woman insisted that I owed her an extra dollar, but kept changing her story that it was for the rice or the hot oil. I've never been charged for hot oil at any other Chinese take-out place. Plus, I let them keep the brown sauce that was included. I said, that's just not right - you can keep the hot oil but I'm never coming here again. She took back the hot oil and didn't seem to care. So I won't be going there again. They lost a customer over a condiment. That's what I call pennywise and pound-foolish.

I honestly cannot give a low enough rating to represent how dissatisfied I am with this restaurant. The food is bland and tasteless and the staff are surly and manipulative. They improperly delivered 3 out of the 4 items I had ordered and when I called to rectify it, they tried to stick me with another bill (for food I had already purchased). Do not come to this restaurant unless you want mediocre food delivered by thieves.

The food was made ready at a moments notice, I was able to get three specifically different orders picked up within like 10 mins of placing the request. I cant fault them for not having mich seating considering it's a small spot but that is a testament to the efficiency of the restaurant. Its definitely a quick go to spot for the fam when hunger is rampant

  • Ruben Wilson

I order from here all the time! Quick, easy, and inexpensive! I love when I meet Asian folks that speak Spanish too. I am just wondering if they can make Spanish criolla food to fuse with the Chinese food they already make. That'd be amazing! I love to get a fried rice and beans to go with it.

Prices are very good, food is very good. Usually get fried rice and have gotten plenty of other things too (spare ribs, lo mein, general gao) -- added bonus: the woman who works here speaks Cantonese, Spanish, and English (maybe Mandarin too)

When our favorite Chinese take-out closed, we found Happy World. Good food, fast delivery, maybe we found our new favorite!
