Great for what it is, the most affordable Chinese in the area. Pretty solid from everything I have had from there.

Would recommend to any college students looking for a good food on a budget. Very affordable food, I would recommend the lunch or all day specials. Food is decent but don't expect exemplary cuisine, pretty run of the mill American Chinese food. Service is fast, best if you call ahead or online. They do charge extra for card so pay with cash. Don't let the interior scare you, it is a great place for affordable Chinese takeout.

I will end a mans life for the pork fired rice-- and i have yet to find anouther place that makes chicken fingers the same. The serving sizes are massive and cheap, the staff is very nice. I will say that one time i was picking up an order i told the guy what it was and he reapted something totally different and then i said "no this is what i orderd" and then he still charged me and gave me the wrong food!?!? Honestly not that upset it was like food for 3 or 4 people and i was going to work anyways so i just shared and everyone seemed to enjoy it tons. And honestly that worker was clearly stressed out that day and i could have checked my bag before i walked out so i dont think its fair to take any stars away. The inside is a little janky theres like no temperature control in there either so winter is rough. And its pretty on par with other places in lowell so its not like anything crazy

Let's be honest. You either like it or you don't. No inbetween. I personally like it. I've been coming here for years since I was a freshman at Lowell High. I remember it as the place to go for cheap Chinese on half day Wednesdays. And it still is the place to go for cheap Chinese. The prices haven't changed much. Their all-day-specials are the deals to get. Actually it's the only thing I order from there. All are under $6. You get a ton of food in a Styrofoam to go box and so much so that they have to staple the opening shut so it doesn't spill out. Now let's discuss the food. It's really either a hit or a miss. Sometimes it's piping hot off the stove or fryer and other times it's warm and let's just say, the opposite of fresh. My experience is if you order near their closing time, you'll get the latter. So make sure you order during the day. Don't forget to ask for extra duck sauce. It goes with everything especially the crab rangoon. Yum. Let's not forget the interior of the restaurant. The counter and tables are still light pink and chipped. The floors and walls are still sticky icky and grimmey. Just as I remembered it as a freshman in high school. The interior hasn't changed, much to my displeasure. While the food and interior of the restaurant hasn't changed much in regards to taste or quantity (which is a good thing) the service has. It has surprisingly gotten better. The women who take the orders are genuinely very nice and they smile which is a plus. You don't get a lot of pleasant service with Chinese fast food anywhere. All in all, with all the other Chinese restaurants in Lowell, I think this will always remain #1 in my heart for cheap Chinese.

I always go here when I wanna save money or eat alot of General Tso's Chicken. Out of all the downtown lowell restaurant, their general tso's has the biggest quantity. My advice would be to order ahead of time because it takes a while to prepare, but it'll be slightly warm after a while. On the other hand, it's very very hot when you order and wait on the spot, but this tends to kill half of my 45 min. lunch break.
