I've been enjoying food from this restaurant for the past 3 years. I have eaten at every Chinese restaurant within 10 miles. Some with regret.
This is my number 1!
I primarily get one of their lunch specials. At under $6 (plus tax and tip), with large portion sizes, this is a deal that can't be beat. Your choice comes with white rice, fried rice, or pork fried rice with a side of soup. I have never had an entree I didn't enjoy.
I love the shrimp lunch specials. Most of them use large fresh shrimp. The shrimp lo mein I had the other day had smaller shrimp and delicious noodles.
The hot and spicy beef is peppers and onions with tender beef. The chicken dishes use white breast meat and all dishes have fresh hand prepped vegetables. Tofu dishes use a firm tofu that is great fried.
Here's a secret: 9 out of 10 Chinese restaurants don't fry their fried rice for lunch specials. They cook the rice with some soy sauce and mix in some ingredients when serving.
Full House actually puts the rice IN the wok and does it right! With carrots, peas, onions, and roasted pork, the side to your lunch is PROPER.
A great value restaurant with friendly, hardworking, local owners!!!

My favorite Chinese carry-out restaurant... a great menu plus daily lunch specials and a very friendly staff. The chef is a skilled artisan, a pleasure to watch. I have never been disappointed in anything I have ordered and plan to make my way through their entire menu.
Ordered really late at night and they said they'd call back to tell me whether they could fill the order. Got a call back soon, and they delivered late at night (past their closing time). For $15 (including delivery) I got several pounds of food. I'm on base at Camp Ethan Allen, so that was a huge plus. Food was fine. Would definitely order again if I were here longer.
