| - Lunch Specials are daily. Located in the Smith's shopping center/ strip mall at Buffalo and Flamingo. There are a lot of small businesses, and this hidden gem is in between Smith's and Big 5 Sporting Goods (when facing Smiths, it's to the right, and Big 5 is on the right most corner).
We'd been in the area for a few months after I'd seen the sign because I stopped at that Chase that afternoon. After I showed my husband, he stopped to see it, but it was closed when he visited. I had it bookmarked.
A nice variety of lunch specials (back of the menu) ranging from $5.95 to $6.50. General menu items are Chinese (beef and broccoli, fried rice, egg rolls, wor won ton soup), Thai (pad thai, pad se ewe), and East Asian dishes. Prices vary for type of meat (tofu is also available), but aren't too bad if you want the shrimp ($10 range). The menu states they do not use any MSG.
Small, a total of five tables, inside seating only. It was packed on saturday for lunch. We got the big table, but we were the only family there. There were three takeout orders (popular, a good sign) while we were eating lunch. A sign on the wall showed the A rating. Clean place. There was a side counter with ice water, chopsticks, plastic ware, and chili sauce. The order counter is the back wall. Warm bright colors (yellow and orange- unexpected but a nice change from the norm) on the walls with framed pictures of popular dishes and vegetables. A TV was on, in one corner of the restaurant, showing the latest news stories. It's simple but it works well.
Service was very good. The two people up front were very nice. Our server kept checking in with us, too. (Eating here? Don't be surprised with the disposable plates and plastic forks.)
Hubby ordered the lunch special Beef and Broccoli and I was dying for crispy fried noodles with chicken and vegetables. I could see a glimpse (there was a drape separating the restaurant from the kitchen but it was short or something) of the cooks in the back kitchen working their magic. It didn't seem too long. Portions were generous. The crispy fried noodles were so yummy. It's a two-parter: pour the meat, vegetables, and sauce into the noodles (careful, it's HOT). You don't know how long it's been since we've had this dish! And I was so delighted that we finally found a worthy replacement (we've been looking since there was a major change to a casino cafe). We were really enjoying lunch. I love when there is a crispness to the veggies when you bit into it. And you know what, everything was good the following night, when we had leftovers.
We are most likely coming here again and again and again. Need I say more?
