I love a place that has lunch specials! I went with my son and had a lovely lunch. Food was great and there was a nice variety in the lunch special portions were decent too. We will be back.
One tip would be to offer free WiFi (we play pokemon go & there is a gym at that location) that would be useful for us to play games while we eat... -

I was crazing some soup but didn't really want my usual go to wonton soup from Thai lotus. So I decided to give this place a go since it's listed as the #1 for Chinese in the high desert.
The man on the phone wasn't really pleasant. I wanted as listed on their online menu, a large Wonton soup. He argued with me and said we only have one size so I said okay fine whatever you have. I also asked what kind of meat they use in their rice and opted for chicken fried rice.
When arriving to pick up my order the man still wasn't really pleasant. I asked for a menu for take out and asked what he would recommend but he just started naming things off the menu and said we have lots of good food over one hundred something items. I just asked for a suggestion bud. Don't be so angry, I just want to try your food.
The rice was decent a little on the bland side but cooked good.
The wonton soup was delicious. I mean really perfect. Next time I'll just get two cups, since they don't have a bowl.
I'm torn between 3 and 4 stars because the guy kind of broke my expectations but the soup was delicious and just what I was looking for.
The menu is HUGE. I'd like to read through here and see what people order to get some good suggestions. I'll be back and hopefully my experience will be a little nicer. -

This was my first time here! Came during lunch hour and we were helped quickly. The food was fantastic! I ate the orange chicken lunch special which came with rice, egg roll, soup, and a won ton. Such a great value for a family lunch outing :)
We fed 4 people for around $40

Saw the high reviews so thought we would stop in on our visit to Apple Valley. Clean enough environment and the staff were prompt. They brought out some wonton chips sprinkled with sugar. They were tasty though odd with the sugar. We ordered the egg rolls which were ok. The orange beef was the best thing we had there. We also had some deluxe fried rice, the house special pan fried noodle sizzling plate and the Sub-Gum wonton Grand style. The two house specials tasted pretty much the same with the brown sauce, one served on fried noodles and the other with fried wontons. Good restaurant overall, not great but not bad.

We ate at the Mandarin Chef today and it was delicious. We tried the Chow mein beef, Mongolian beef, shrimp fried rice and the beef with broccoli. Food came out fast and service was great. Recommend to anyone!!
