    Best orange chicken in town! I have been visiting this location for almost 4 years and never fails to amaze me.  The interior is a little run down, but don't be fooled by looks.
    I've tried about half of their menu. Some of my favorites include the beef and broccoli, the shrimp stir fry and the orange chicken. The portions are big and they have good prices.
    Delivery is an option as well if you are within the grid area. Unfortunately I moved so it's no longer an option for me. But when I lived around, delivery was fast and my food was always hot!
    In addition, The service is always warm and welcoming, I almost feel like family when I go in there! I would recommend this place to anyone looking for great food.

    Sucker for torture? Thats what you'll get here if you like their food. When I first started ordering from this place it seemed to go ok the first couple times but ever since then its been nothing but a nightmare with deliveries that never showed up to deliveries that took over an hour to get here and then they disagree with the time frame until you show them what time you actually called. Another order that was delivered when I asked for carry out and told that only when i got there to pick it up. The final straw came right after finding a screw in my food. Didnt even try to call them... just will never, ever go back. It wouldnt do any good to complain anyway because they simply dont care. They didnt care about the last issues they caused so why bother? Stay far away from this place unless you like a restaurant that has no customer service and does nothing but shrug their shoulders when there is an issue. Just plan on having an issue if you do order so youre not disappointed when it happens. Dont get screwed like I did.... See pics

    I cannot find a decent chinese restaurant in Colorado Springs! I ordered sweet and sour chicken and it arrived soaked in sauce. The bag was disgusting because it leaked all over the place. A Normal restaurant would provide the sauce in a separate container but whatever.  Also, the wontons were cold and stiff. If you're lazy and dont give a shit just close the establishment and find something you're passionate about. I paid $25.00 for a cold soggy mess.

    I think this is about the worst Oriental food I've ever tasted. I don't know what was in those eggrolls or maybe they were not cooked thoroughly but it was gross and slimy. The rice was hard and the orange chicken was very poorly prepared. Thanx for ripping me off!

    Had their chicken fried rice and chicken lo mein. Portion sizes are big and lo mein is delicious. Fried rice lacks flavor.
