I decided to check out this place due to the mentions on social media. I called in advance to get my order in, I was running errands in that area. The lady who took my order was nice and very efficient. They were about to close in 50 minutes so I was glad I was able to get my order in. Things I ordered: Family Dinner(A) 1. Beef Broccoli- pretty standard but delicious dish. The meat was tender and I did not feel like they skimped on the meat either. They did have broccoli and some sliced celery. I did like that the broccoli was cooked more than not, many Chinese restaurants sometimes don't cook it enough. It's best when the broccoli is tender and the tops soak up that delicious brown sauce. 4/5 2. Salt Pepper Chicken wings- (12 in an order) These wings are exactly why I wanted to check this place out. Compared to the other 3 famous spots in SD, this definitely should become the 4th. They were crispy and definitely not small at all. The seasoning was just perfect, it had a salty crispy crunch. I was impressed that these stayed this way since I picked up this order and I still had to drive 30 minutes home. The lady keeps the to-go-box wide open so they stay crispy. I actually had ordered another set of these wings due to the hype. I will do the same next time. 5/5 3. Fried Rice- this did not contain any meat/seafood in it. The rice was darker in appearance and it definitely had that Wok hei, which can only be obtained with a true wok and incredibly high heat. That was the only stand out point of this dish. Would I order this again, probably not. 3/5 4. House Noodle- this contained pork, chicken and shrimp. This was also darker in color. I think they give insane portions. Do I think the noodles were the best I've ever had? No, but they were ok. I felt like they were 'doughy'. Would I order this again? maybe not. 3/5 5. Bowl of soup- You could choose egg flower or Hot & sour soup. We chose the egg flower soup. My sis said it was meh. Would we order this on its own, probably not. I should have gotten the hot and sour soup since egg flower soup is pretty easy to make. 2/5 6. Mongolian Beef- This dish definitely did not shy away from the amount of meat. It was savory, soft and velveted. I think I liked the Beef and Broccoli a tiny bit more than this, but this dish was pretty good. Would I order again? Yes. 5/5 Food: 4.4/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 (standard Chinese restaurant, looked like a good amount of tables)

Service was great. No complaint about the food, it came quick enough. We certainly will eat there again.

I wanted to take a moment to express my appreciation for the wonderful experience I had during my recent take-out order from your restaurant. I ordered the Lemon Chicken, Walnut Shrimp and Wor Won Ton Soup. I was truly impressed by the quality of both the food and the service. The Lemon Chicken was perfectly prepared, with just the right balance of tangy citrus and tender chicken, and the Wor Won Ton Soup was rich, flavorful, and comforting. Also, the Salt and Pepper Chicken and Walnut Shrimp was what I call absolutely perfection!!! It's clear that your kitchen uses the freshest ingredients, and every bite was delicious. The service was prompt, and my order was so good. I truly appreciated the care and attention that went into preparing my meal. I look forward to ordering from you again in the future and will certainly recommend your restaurant to friends and family. Thank you for providing excellent food and service on a busy New Year's eve!!!! Happy New Year to you and your amazing staff!!! A+++±++++++++

The food is delicious... Made to order... the Fam loves it... We have been coming here for a few months now and it never disappoints. Makes long days at work for an easy dinner...

Tried them for a lunch special. Great price, generous serving. The sweet and sour pork was tasty, if not my favorite sauce. The friendly waitress tried to steer me toward the salt & pepper chicken wings, which were not what I wanted today, but I will return for them next time. I ordered steamed rice, but received fried rice--there was a bit of a language barrier as I had a difficult time understanding her. I was impressed by the fried rice, which I rarely enjoy. Theirs however was fresh, hot and moist. I would opt for it next time on purpose! I look forward to trying those wings when I can bring my other half to try those and something else as well!. Prices are good, but be aware--CASH ONLY!

Food was delicious. Hot and fresh. Service was quick and friendly. Refills on drinks was fast. Ambiance is dated but plenty of seating

So I heard they had the best salt and pepper wings and I'm a royal stan so I had to come and see if the rumors were true. I did a salt and pepper wings and salt and pepper shrimp of to see who reigns supreme. The customer service was good and the food didn't take long being that there was only three other people their when we pulled up. Here's where I knew there might be a new champ in town the wings came with a side of steamed rice. Royal y'all forgot your humble beginnings and thought you were better then the free rice. The wings were just as big lighter in color but the flavor was phenomenal and I will say this round was won by the imperial palace now the shrimp they got smoked their batter is like a corn dog type batter that I'm not with but they have definitely won me over and I'll speak their name with praise

One of our favorite Chinese spots in San Diego ( National city) this family own spot is always very welcoming I can't imagine a trip without making a stop. The wings are my absolute favorite crunchy and tasty the chow mein is prepared to perfection. It's a small but can accommodate groups. They serve party platters if anyone is looking for a gathering.

Cindy is very nice, and she always has a big smile at this hole-in-the-wall restaurant, I had the Egg Fried Rice, with onions, peas, carrots, and scrambled eggs of course. Under $15. Cash Only, please! You also can get to choose from ten entrees plus you'll also receive an egg roll and your choice of soup; the Hot and Sour Soup was on fire hot so watch out. Under 10 dollars Where else, in all of San Diego County can you find value like this, and so darn sooo tasty too? Easy on the wallet accompanied by terrific parking.
