  I'm a really big fan of this place because it is one of the only Chinese Restaurants in the Athens/Watkisnville area that doesn't use MSG (at least that is their claim, though my husband says he suspects they've started using a little in the
  past year - say it ain't so!).
  
  Lunch specials are great and affordable. Huge portions, delicious egg rolls and friendly staff. The only thing I'd have them change is to add a few more vegetarian options, but hey, the ones they have aren't too shabby. There is even a steamed option for those watching their weight.
  
  Very good!

  Love this place. I eat here about once a week. Food is always super fresh and hot. I hate green vegetables so I special order everything. They don't bat an eyelash. My favorite dishes are the Five Spice Chicken, Pepper Steak, and egg rolls.

  We used to really love this place.  Not the best quality of food, but they were really good at what they did; very professional.  Then we started getting sick when we would eat there.  The first few times, we brushed it off, as we didn't know for sure that this was what was causing it(you know how life is, you eat so many various things, how can you really be sure).  Eventually we stopped eating there, and stopped getting sick.  
  We didn't eat there for a very long time, then, last night, we were put in a position where we needed to again, so we did.  And the entire family, all 5 of us, have been sick all day today.  
  I don't know what they changed, but please, do yourself a favor and DON'T eat there.  I would hate to think what may happen if someone with a compromised immune system ended up like us. Oh, it's awful.

  Food is average, portions are decent size though. They charge extra for every little substitution and there egg rolls are terrible. Seems clean and usually doesn't take too long to get your order. Not many other options in Watkinsville, should be better for the price

  This is by far the best Chinese in the Athens area. We moved here about 2 years ago and haven't been able to find a really good place to get Chinese until I started working in Watkinsville and found this place. I waited to eat here a few times before writing my review to see if everything held up. I've had sesame chicken, peking chicken, and general tso's chicken so far. They were all very, very good! The best I've had here. The egg rolls are also good and crispy. Their crab angles are crab rangoons and are extremely fresh. They don't use MSG, which is a huge plus for me. The food is always extremely hot, fresh, and tasty. I have ordered it to go every time I've gone, and it's ready within 10 minutes or less. It's also really cheap! I got general tso's lunch special with fried rice and egg drop soup for $6 today.
  
  This is absolutely the place to go for Chinese!
