Homey, authentic Cantonese BBQ spot with probably the best roast duck and BBQ pork in the metroplex. They also have crispy roast pork (until sold out) which is usually decent depending on time of day. Prices are fair for what you get. I’ve eaten at all of the different locations and still feel partial to this Plano location.

3.7 stars. Simple no frills Chinese spot. The fried rice was every bit as good as I remembered from my younger days. The duck and bbq plate was very popular with the table. Be sure to order the Orange Chicken too. By the time we left, our party of 7 was stuffed!

We were hungry and this was the closest Chinese restaurant that we could find! We had two noodle dishes, both are ok! We had the beef soft noodles and house crispy noodles (this one had a mixture of different seafoods), the flavor is ok not extraordinary that I need to go back for more! Service was great! It was quiet when we were there! Lots of carry outs!

I came with a group of 4. You can pick where to sit. Staff was nice. Food was a solid 10 for me. I love their wonton duck egg noodle soup. The duck meat gives it a rich flavor. The salted bake chicken was really good but a lil too oily for me. The sauce dip was good. 8/10. Overall I would recommend this place

Cantonese barbecue the old way. This is a branch of the Richardson original that has been at it since the early 1980s, and the roast duck with its crispy skin is still the reason to come. The roast duck wonton noodle soup is the order if you want it all in one bowl. Cash only, no frills, worth the wait at lunch. Thank you for keeping it consistent all these years. Five stars.
