"This restaurant is ok. Not the greatest but not the worst Chinese restaurant I've had. This is my 2nd time coming here and it's never really packed which I love. The less of a crowd the better. Plenty of space to park and plenty of tables to sit down at. I would recommend the Egg Foo Yung, the Stuffed Mushrooms and the Panko Fried Shrimp. I feel that the General Tso's Chicken is a bit too rich in flavor, the Orange Chicken is a tad less stronger and the Sesame Chicken seems to have the right balance. Mind you some of these dishes have been sitting on the line for a bit too long but, for what they charge per meal is a bargain. Can't beat $12 bucks. That's a steal really. The nearest Chinese restaurants are south in Nevada and north in Kansas city. Are you that willing to travel that far just for a plate of Chinese? Just don't come with 5 star expectations. Think realistically with the size of butler and it's current population to the size of this restaurant and any nearby competitors. The owner is very kind and polite, she is a sweet lady. I will come again the next time I'm able to spend the day in butler."

I mean i love it enough to say that if been going to this plafe for well over 5 years now. Iv gone with friends of been there alone, and time after time jts been the best of service, one of tbe best sit down buffed or take out.

"Wondeful service, and the food wasn't bad at all. For the chicken offerings, go with the General Tso's. The crab rangoons (which i dont think had crab but I'm not complaining) were tasty and the rice was nice. Very classic small town chinese place, like everyone else says don't go in expecting much."

"Food is great! For the record I've never gotten sick or got food poisoning from this place!! I was friends with Mae and Ru when they opened it, and know the new owners as well. I have ate here for 14yrs and never one issue. Always willing to substitute and make my orders extra spicy. Dont be afraid to try it if you haven't, everyone always has a bad word or experience at one point and time.. just think, 14yrs is a long time to be open if they are serving bad food...."
