Excellent choices, great value, and friendly service. We loved the vegetarian options and the fact that it wasn't even remotely greasy. Quality ingredients for a good price. We didn't dine inside, so I can only speak for takeout. But we'll be back.

The absolute best place for relatively cheap Chinese food!

Good food, they make is pretty quickly. The service is fine, not bad not overly good. The prices are what you would expect.

Well , the Egg rolls have 0 taste , and i mean it was nasty , had a cinnamon off putting taste, never will I order egg rolls there , however , the General To's chicken my son got, he loved . We got there between the allotted time for lunch and the lady informed me I would have yo pay the extra for dinner and i thought it was very unfair but i got it anyway because my son really wanted that chicken . She was also kind of rude . So that is why i gave it 3 stars and not to mention the sanitation grade was 90, so I'll not eat there anymore . I'll rather take my son to the Chinese restaurant over by walmart in Hillsborough , now their egg rolls are the best I've ever eaten .

The food here is always fresh, fast and delicious. FOUR SPRING ROLLS, TWO DOLLARS. Four minutes from the time I ordered the spring rolls until they were in my hands!

My parents recently bought a house in northern Durham, less than 2 miles from Handy Kitchen. Turns out this is going to be a problem because it's so good and fast that I end up eating there way too much. The egg drop soup can be a little gloppy like they didn't wisk the thickener enough, but the taste and ratio of egg to liquid is great. The sweet and sour pork was nicely crisp and good quality meat. The chicken lo main has been a crowd favorite. So was the honey chicken, btw they give you a ton of sauce so you can douse your food. Pork fried rice has nice chunks of meat in it. The only thing I'm not thrilled about is their definition of spicy. I've asked for spicy twice and feel both time it was pretty mild.

The food is delicious. The service is quick and friendly. If you're not used to Chinese food just say so and they'll happily make a suggestion. And if you're on a budget they have combination platters. I know some Chinese restaurants get a bad rap but trust me quality is one thing you don't have to worry about at this place.
