I had a curry beef lunch special with chow mein and I thought it was pretty good. There was plenty of meat and it was very flavorful, I really enjoyed the chow mein, the noodles had a very nice bite to them. The service was pretty good, our waitress checked on us at least 3 times and my water never got more than halfway full

Never made it into this place as there was no handicap/wheel chair accessible. I went so far as to go in and ask and the reply was no. Pretty sure that's illegal but hey one less plate they have to wash.

We eat plant based and ordered fried rice. Was decent. Veggies were fresh. Next time will order extra tofu ☀️

Seriously excellent Chinese place, definitely not something I was expecting to find in Humboldt county when I moved up here.
Of all the dishes here I've tried, the mapo tofu is the standout by far. It's super delicious and uses real Szechuan peppercorns, so it's a unique culinary experience for sure. The twice cooked pork is also awesome.
Servers have always been friendly, and the food arrives REALLY fast after you order it. I've never had to wait more than 5-10 mins. The interior is nice, with walled booths that offer lots of privacy, dim lighting, and fun decorations. I often find myself going back here to treat myself to a tasty lunch or dinner.
It was excellent as always! This time I went for the fried beef and it was good also. I love the cashew dishes. And I generally go there for lunch and it was very reasonable 😁
Initially I was excited. The hot and sour soup on the menu just has veggies and tofu as ingredients. I asked the server, who looked like a manager or owner, if I can get it without the egg. I confirmed multiple times it was vegetarian. She said yes. I got the big bowl of soup and ate a lot of it, then realized I had bit into a giant chunk of chicken. I spit it out, it was clearly chicken. They apologized profousely and I asked if I could just get my money back and they said no we can remake it. Honestly I am not going to eat that. I havent eaten meat since 2005 and I know its a preference and not an allergy thing, but how did chicken accidently end up in there? Thats sketchy. Is there cross contamination? I dont trust it. I think its not safe for people who dont eat meat and also in general because what kind of oversight or lack of sanitation or cleanliness that you can get a huge chunk of chicken accidently in a soup that has no meat.
This is THE BEST authentic Chinese food in town. The place opens until 9:30p.m. Everyone is super nice and friendly!
The best Chinese food in the area. Friendly staff, very fresh ingredients. Tons of space to dine in.
