Really good pork bun! I had been looking for a dim sum spot to go to in Bakersfield and finally found it!

I am highly confused as to why this restaurant has so many good reviews. I came to this establishment with my boyfriend on a Thursday and we were the only ones there. No music was playing and it was dark. After being seated and given menus that was bigger than my arm we ordered. I had ramen and picked pork steam buns, while my boyfriend got another order of steam buns and a rice bowl. When we got our food we also asked for hot sauce which looked like it hadn't been cleaned since the place opened. The food was mediocre and we only received one order of steam buns but we never got the change to tell the server because he never came back to check on us. When we were done we waited 20 minutes but still the man never showed. While waiting a woman came in and started shouting, trying to get seated. At that point we wanted to leave so we had to ask for the check even after he sat the woman. I came to this place due to the reviews but after my experience I will NEVER come again.

We live down the street from this place and you have no idea how many times we've passed by this place. It doesn't look much from the outside that's why we've passed up on this place. But one night, we wanted something Thai and/or Chinese food. Since we didn't feel like driving far and this restaurant is literally down the street from us, we decided to give it a try. Their parking lot is pretty empty and so that made us think "oh, it's a empty parking lot, not a lot of people eat here then." And when you look at the place from the outside, the inside looks really dark. Once you get in there, a nice lady greets you and seats you right away. The inside is dark, a little too dark I should say, but overall, I am loving the atmosphere. The place is huge! I love the decor! I felt like I was in an amazon forest or something LOL. We ordered their combination fried rice, combination chow mein, sweet and sour chicken, salt and pepper porkchops, and their beef ramen (all four of our kids love ramen). Let me tell you, this place did not dissapoint! Their food is so good and from there on, we've been going to this place and have been ordering take out. The lady there is so friendly and nice - she even remembers us and knows our usual orders.

We were apprehensive because it was so empty, but we were pleasantly surprised by the food! Bathrooms were very messy, but food was good.

We drove out of our way several miles based on the strong reviews on Yelp. Unfortunately our experience did not measure up. The food was OK, but I waited so long food a glass of wine that I finally just cancelled the order, as my meal was finished. We were the only customers in the entire restaurant, so there was no excuse for such poor service. I hope they do better in the future. We will not return.

They offer a great variety of delicious food. I enjoy eating here. The employees are always friendly, prices are reasonable and the place is always well organised.

First time here. I was initially worried as the restaurant had no patrons but was greeted by a courteous hostess who would be our waitress as well. I had the curry fried rice which was delicious and my wife had the fried rice and kung pao chicken that was quite tasty as well.

I like it because you can get Japanese, Chinese, and Vietnamese all in one place. The seafood pho is really good. The kids like the orange chicken so it works out for everybody
This is easily the best Chinese cuisine in town that has solid options for vegetarians. The vegetable fried rice is fantastic, and we've personally enjoyed this restaurant for over a decade!

chinese food and the atmosphere here is above par. Great spot for an appetite of any size. The service here is outstanding. Bring your appetite because portions are generous. Makes me feel like I in Nashville again.
