“ Everything is made to order, it was so hot that even driving 15 miles to my Dad's farm? Still too hot to eat out of the container. Staff is friendly and politely conversational. Ask for dumpling sauce...even if you aren't getting dumplings. Put it on rice or dip a chicken skewer in it. Trust me on this. ”

“ Me and my wife and my mother really enjoyed the food and the service was great! There's so many options. I really liked the imported beer which is difficult to find, last time I drank it was in Hong Kong. ”

“ We are regulars at the One and One location in Arnold's Park and decided to give this branch a try since we were visiting the state park outside of town. We were the only two people in the restaurant over the noon hour on a Saturday which I found to be rather surprising, considering they have a great value for money lunch special. The food was essentially identical to the Arnold's Park location in terms of quality, taste, and portion size. Service here was little less inviting, however. Overall the meal was good and I hope business here picks up! ”

“ Some of the best Asian food I have ever had. The egg drop soup was delicious, the egg roll was delicious and the triple kung Pao was delicious. ”

“ My husband and I LOVE this place so much. The food is always delicious, and the atmosphere is so relaxing and inviting. But by far the BEST thing about this place are the people. The owner and their family are wonderful. They remember that my husband is allergic to onions and if he forgets to say no onion or no vegetables the owner ALWAYS makes sure to ask just in case. Always recommend this place to everyone! ”
