This place deserves its flowers! It’s a great local restaurant, and I feel like I’m eating homemade food in the best way possible. The potstickers were great, and the hot and sour soup stood out too. We’ll be back again and again! Could easily eat here weekly.
Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly!
The Food: Fabulous. The best in Berkeley. The Service: Professional. Atmosphere: Nice. The lunch special is a tremendous value. Alternative: Becky’s, also on College, just south of Rockridge BART.
