This is a cute little Asian food place with superb hospitality! The food was fresh and delicious. Even the restroom was squeaky clean. We had lunch over there and then chose to get our dinner to-go with us. If you are looking for a clean and small place to have lunch or dinner where you feel welcome this is the place for you.

Food is awesome. Would recommend this place to just about anyone. It’s my wife and is favorite place to grab dinner in Branson west. That being said, It’s currently 5:58 on a Monday night and I have no idea why they’re closed. This happens from time to time. Pull in to pick up drive thru only to be met with a sharpied sign on the door and on the drive thru sign that says “closed at 5”. It’s kind of annoying that google says “close at 8” and the door on the restaurant says “close at 8” but sometimes they’re a just closed. This obviously is not the first time this has happened to me. 3 different cars have parked and attempted to walk in since I’ve been here to type this. Just a heads up, call before you make the trip out here

Some of the best cashew chicken I have had. My brother had the chicken and broccoli which was also delicious. Get the 7.99 deal. It comes with a drink, egg roll and 2 crab rangoons(served beforehand), and choice of entree.
