This restaurant has a good variety of authentic Chinese dishes. We got the braised pork ($14.95), lamb casserole ($14.95), and eggplant ($9.95). For the price, I have to say I was impressed! The braised pork had mostly really tender pieces and great flavor. The lamb casserole had a strong lamb flavor and delicious noodles in it! I thought the lamb pieces were kind of tough. The eggplant was delicious. We asked for less spicy, and it was perfect.

Honestly, this place flip flops in quality everytime I come. I've been dining here for about 10 years and have seen owners change many times. The staff mostly stays the same as well as the menu but the food is not regulated well. This restaurant serves home style food family style. It's always busy during dinner time. When the food is good I have no complaints and love showing this place to friends unaccustomed to Chinese food. But when it is occasionally bad it is disappointing....read full review

This Chinese Shanghainese restaurant is really good and cheap. I heard that it recently replaced an old oil pan. The fried pan-fried buns and sesame pancakes are so popular, loved by both young and old?.Parking: Lots of parking spaces
