A Top Pick in the Area - Second review
 
This has to be the best Chinese Food in the area. Service is usually excellent. Food arrives quickly. But, it's almost impossible to get a parking space around lunch time, so you need to get there by 11:30 or after 1:00pm. If you like garlic, then try their Shrimp with Garlic Sauce. It's a delicous misture of vegetables and a generous portion of shrimp. The Kung Pao Chicken was fairly bland and I wouldn't recommend it.  The vegetables are usually very good.

For lunch, you have a choice of Egg Drop or SweetnSour Soup as part of the meal. Both are excellent.  Dinner is very good too, and parking isn't a problem. Other than being in a strip mall, the atmosphere is pleasant.

Yet another "middle of the road" Chinese restaurant in the Portland area...although a bit better than average, some dishes can be really excellent. 

I tried a "nightly special" of asparagus and beef which was excellent.  The Sesame Chicken was excellent as well, but the shrimp and vegetable dish was a bit flat.  The shrimp seemed a little old.  The "extra hot" green beans weren't extra hot...not even a "one star" when I asked for ten.  A disappointment. 

The waitress was, however, exceptionally pleasant and the food arrived VERY QUICKLY! 

Food: B+. Ambiance: C (it's in a strip mall). Attitude: A. Parking: B...can be a bit crowded at times. Service: A+. Value: A. Overall Rating: B...rates perhaps a 6 on a scale of 1-10.
