Nice owner, the place serve quick Chinese good and tea boba too. Located on the second floor, on top of that Greek restaurant, easily misses if you don't look up.We ordered wonton soup, add on veggies, my mother in law enjoyed it. My hubby enjoyed the Singaporean Noddle a lot. I enjoyed the passion fruit tea with jelly and a simple chicken Chow Mein. Very affordable and it was nice to support them during this COVID-19 pandemic, Arizona University cancelled classes and they lost a lot of business. If I'm in the area again, I'll definitely visit them.

Good freshly made food. Reasonably priced for lunch missing these mom and pop Chinese restaurants as there are fewer of them now

Best Chinese food in town. I've been going here since I was a toddler until current time. I always order the chicken lo mein or the shrimp lo mein. My parents love the food. They're either bringing home takeout or I'm the one doing the takeout for them. My brother loves eating it. He's a picky eater, but this place is his exception. It hits close to home. Place is super cozy and homey. The view from above is just straight up awesome. There's a lot of variety to the menu. I have yet to try everything else on my own! The food is great no matter the time of the day. This place is #1 for sure. Love to have you guys here in this small corner of the university. :)

Mmmm this brought back so much great memories from my days at UofA. Haven't been here for 15 years, but the Beef Tendon and House Fu Young are still the same! Yum! Many other Asian restaurants near campus have closed but OE is still going strong!

I apologize if I misinterpreted the description of your egg foo young. I have been looking all over the area for the egg foo young I'm used too. I know that ppl make it different depending on location but I'm searching for the 3 patty omelette style with everything inside with gravy and rice on the side. No peas and carrots just proteins sprouts, and onions. The ones that I have tried was good and I thank you. Food was tasty and different, wife had 3 spice noodles, daughter had house lo mein and mom had general.

I was in the area & remembered this place from my college days. I ordered chow fun and king pao. Both were really good, classic Chinese food.The place is a little hard to see from the street, but it's upstairs from snakes and lattes.I ordered to go and waited talking to the super nice owner.

I have eaten here for 3 years. Very solid oriental food. The sesame chicken is my favorite very good subtle spicy. The orange chicken is great and they have really cheap lunch specials! My only comment would be that the portion sizes are a little small to my liking for the price.
