“ They have a fish filet with black bean sauce that is out of this world! This has been my favorite Chinese take out/dine local restaurant for many, MANY, moons. The family who owns this little gem is lovely, and their food is consistently delicious. I love their steamed dumplings, BBQ PORK soft noodles, the BBQ pork steamed buns are almost like dessert, they are so good. And the pineapple fried rice is bomb, too! Even when ordering delivery it comes piping hot. Always! Sorry, no pics. Just go and see for yourself! ”
“ Good Chinese food and a great lunch special. Ambience is average, nothing special. Service was excellent. ”
“ Fabulous family-run business. The food is fresh, tastes amazing, and they are willing to adjust to spice level of dishes upon request. We often go here for family gathering or group meet ups and the service is fast, the place clean, and everyone is friendly. A favorite for over 15 years. ”
“ Standard take out. Mix of Cantonese and Taiwanese cuisine. Specials are very good. Only place to offer Beef chow fun with black bean sauce. ”
“ Great place for Chinese. I've gone a few times over the years . Service is fast and they have great options. I highly recommend getting their lunch specials or dinner combos. It's a generous amount of food for the price and easily shareable to get a taste of different dishes on their menu. Also, in general, their prices continue to be affordable compared to other restaurants. The interior has a charm to it that reminds me of all the family owned Chinese restaurants I went to growing up. ”
“ For a "Let's find dinner while we're in Newbury Park", we did well. Good service, good prices, (though we couldn't get their menu to load on Google Maps or Yelp), and large portions. These pics show the dishes AFTER we've already eaten some. A quiet (we went on a Sun. afternoon) place, but near other restaurants so competition for parking. ”
“ We moved to Central Coast Ca almost 2 years ago. We love the area! There is one thing missing though. No good Chinese restaurants! We have searched high and low, from Santa Maria to San Luis Obispo with no luck. As a matter of fact, you can read one of my reviews and see how badly a restaurant flunked out, In my humble opinion. Enough of that. When we lived in Newbury Park we had a favorite, go to restaurant that we always went to when someone in our family was sick. "Sick" could mean a cold or flu , but it could also mean I had a bad headache and called in sick for cooking dinner. No matter what, my son was always first in line requesting Red Wok? With a hopeful expression. Well, with our move and my son moving out those days were behind us... UNTIL! Drum roll please! I had an epiphany! When I need to come to Thousand Oaks, why not order what we love, put it in an insulated bag that we already have, and bring it home! Instant excellent food! So we tried it and it worked! Now having to drive to Thousand Oaks won't bee so bad. As for the food you can get here, everything is made fresh. I loved the wor wonton soup! House special noodles, kung pow chicken, broccoli and beef, shrimp with lobster sauce, the list goes on and on. You can eat there, it's a simple place, not fancy, or take it to go. Don't be put off by the older lady, she seems gruff, but the chef is great. ”
“ I have seen this place for decades and some reason went next door to the Alamo but not there. I gave it a shot when I wanted shrimp fried rice and my usual go to place was closed. A A friend and I went to try it out, both of us were virgins. We ordered the eggplant with tofu, shrimp fried rice, pork egg foo young, chicken with vegetables, beef with snow peas, and chicken dumplings. The server explained that the dumplings are made in house, along with their egg rolls. Big difference from those restaurants that uses factory created. Wow they were huge, the filling was delicious and the texture of the dumping was fresh. I love dim sum, and this place questioned the quality of those places I was going too. Will be asking if things are made in house next time I go elsewhere. Ordering to delivery of the food took some time, but they cooked to order, which I appreciate. The above food order, I would get again and try out more of their options. I heard they have been open for 20+ years, congratulations to them and continued success. ”
