We came here at 7 pm. There are 4 tables are being served and non of the guests are Chinese. Also they use fork and spoon rather than chopsticks. Kind of unusual Chinese restaurant to me

We had a 5 person group with each person ordering a different meal. The portions were large and the prices were well within reason. Everyone was impressed with their meal. We also did a bit of sharing and, again, impressed with each others meals.
I would highly recommend this restaurant if you like Chinese food.

Besides being known for its' appearance in the Rush Hour movie, it is a pretty unassuming restaurant in Chinatown. Traditional Chinese restaurant vibes and food. They have some photos of the cast back when they filmed the movie on the wall as well. The food is solid and I do not think you could go wrong here. The beef chow fun is not too saucy but still flavorful. The string beans have a decent crunch and the kung pao chicken is tender and delicious. I also need to call out how good the hot tea was. It reminded me of this dragon jasmine tea that I have loved in the past. We even got some to-go cups on the way out because it was just so good.

Now for my standard comments. The location is clean and well kept. Comfortable indoor seating. There is an upstairs that you can check out but another floor that is cloesd off as well.

Food is good. Portions are huge. We overordered for three and could not complete it. Came here for the experience and knowing this was featured in Rush Hour.

I’m only came here to see the real life movie scene from Rush hour first one and I’m so happy that I find what I’m looking for and I love how they still have the Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker in the photos

String beans are my favorite and the egg rolls are the absolute best. Perfect crunch. The jasmine tea to start is such a bonus. Cool seeing the Rush Hour history on the wall. Excellent stop for lunch and a great value.

Pretty good traditional Chinese restaurant. Of course mostly known for its appearance in the first Rush Hour movie. This is a great place to visit history while enjoying good food. You start off with Jasmine tea and then I tired the egg rolls and seafood soup to start off. I then got the Half crispy duck, orange chicken, shrimp and broccoli, house special chow mein, and sliced fish with red wine sauce. Orange chicken had good flavor and the red wine sauce has a good herb flavor to it. The red wine isn't as intense like other cuisines that reduce it into a sauce so it isn't overpowering. Parking is street parking and there are lots around too. First floor makes it very wheelchair accessible and great for kids/family

Everyone was very nice. We got aTo go order. The tsao chicken was bland and a little bitter. The duck was dry. The eggplant was flavorless. The hot and sour soup was slimy but also lacked flavor.

I did not expect the food to be well seasoned and so tasty. We ordered the shrimp fried rice, chow mein, pot stickers, and fried shrimp!! All of it was amazing. The service was also great with friendly staff. They are quick with the food and ensuring the tables are nice and clean. We also ended up drinking two kettles of Jasmine tea. Highly recommend. Did not get a chance to take a picture of the food because I was truly enjoying the moment. 10/10. Street parking or there are a few lots as well.
