We happened to be driving Highway 15 at lunch, and thought we would try some Chinese food for lunch. We had pork egg rolls, Hunan chicken and Szechuan pork. Both were listed as hot and spicy which is just what we wanted! Delicious! The owner was very personable and hospitable. We will be back!
Had a great experience celebrating family birthdays in a spacious, semi -private area with excellent food and service. Johnny and staff were very accommodating and the food/drinks were served in a friendly and timely manner. Highly recommend for family celebrations!
This was our first time ordering take out from here. The food was excellent and the portions very generous. We had Chicken with Broccoli and Orange Chicken. The orange chicken is listed as "hot & spicy" on the menu, so we requested that they tone it down some. It was perfect for us. We look forward to ordering again in the future.
We love this place make the 20 mile drive once or twice a month the people are great and the food is the best Chinese in southren MN (in my opinion) you get a good portion of food for this price !
Pecan crusted shrimp has such delicious flavor. The portions are huge. Sizzling Happy Family was just like its name...Sizzling!! My hot and sour soup was the best I've had in years!! The owners are very friendly and come check on your satisfaction, personally ..truly a great find!!
