  We live in Brownsville and travel frequently to the Austin area. We just happened to have a wedding to attend in Kingsville and were hungry afterward and found this restaurant via Yelp.  
  Expectations were low; it is genuinely difficult to find good Chinese food in The Valley and I expected more of the same in Kingsville.  My wife is Taiwanese, and we've lived all over, cook Chinese food at home, so I'll admit we are picky.  
  What a pleasant surprise!  You can tell a great deal about a Chinese place by how they do their soups.  The hot and sour was not the gloppy, drab, held-too-long slop that is so common.  It was bright, fresh, and delicious.
  They have a special house noodle dish I inquired about and it was described as having curry so I asked if it was similar to Singapore noodles, a favorite of ours.  Our waitress said it was, so that was half of our order.  The other was ma po tofu, which is another staple dish of all Chinese restaurants that revels how much they care about the food they serve.  
  The noodles were terrific with just the right amount of spice and heat to be enjoyable without overwhelming the flavors of the meat and veggies.  The ma po tofu included minced meat of some sort;my wife was pretty sure it was minced BBQ pork.  It was also outstanding.  
  We've all but given up having Chinese "out" in the Valley, but now we have a place to stop on our way to and from Austin!  We look forward to trying other items from their menu.
  Also, the service was good.  It is a family-run business so you might see the younger members cleaning tables or doing their homework at a table in the  corner.  
  Highly recommended.

  One of the better Asian restaurants in Kingsville. Good service and prices. The environment looks clean. I recommend this place above the other Chinese/Asian restaurants in Kingsville.

  I used to love this place but I don't know what the deal is.. this last time the staff were short with us rude almost they had kids running around like crazy, yelling.. the egg rolls were solid cabbage and a touch of bacon bits nothing else, the soup was almost jelly like and I had to raise my hand for several minutes in HOPES of even getting the attention of the servers, I was so excited about this meal and it was a total disappointment due to crap service. I guess I'll be getting my again fix while in corpus from now on ..

  For the most part when people think of Chinese food the first thing that comes to mind is all you can eat, well not here it's by the plate. The plates are well plated and you can taste the freshness as well as the "just made".
  
  As you walk in the place it is well kept and clean...a real relaxing atmosphere not the kind you find at the all you can eat. Service was descent but the one thing that kept me thinking was trying to read the menu. It offers so much variety and combinations you really need to know what you want to order. Hopefully the next time I will try the sushi as it looks real fresh and well played.
  
  All in all I will be returning back for another visit and another crack at the menu.

  I came in expecting a lunch buffet and there wasn't one. We were seated quickly and attended to. The food was so good and hot. I love that they have free fruit and dessert with every meal.
