So, dinner out with the kids and I was thrilled at the experience. Neat place, polite staff, quite spacious and airy. There is an outdoor space and an indoor space. It was evening and being out with the kids, I went with the indoor space. However the outdoor space is an option to be considered if you are a group of adults, a couple or want a quiet dinner solo.... or during daytime yes? But that's just me. The wait time is average, the food is great and the rates fair. The lady in charge proposed some games to the kids as they finished their dinner and were on the hyperactive side..... which is great. Hint.... ask maybe when next you make it there? ... if they forget . I recommend.
The best « Chinese » restaurant in town … I mean « pure Chinese food », not Asian. And trust me, I’m a connoisseur when it’s about Chinese food. You may want to try their spicy beef soup & the sweet and sour pork ribs there are !
A go to spot for relatively cheaper and very delicious Chinese cuisine. very polite waiters and short wait time despite the number of customers in the restaurant.

Nearest first, then across the Rio Grande Valley.
