Classic delicious Chinese food in an old fashioned Chinese restaurant. After a brief holiday Yin has returned to bring her beloved neighborhood restaurant and cuisine back to life!!! Just like before Dinner and Lunch!

Back again and its October 6 2025
And after while the CRISPY CHICKEN is back on the Menu!!!
I came to Celebrate the Moon Festival tonight and got the Crispy Chicken and beef with Bitter Melon as well as Kung Pao Shrimp!!! All so delicious!
I asked several friends to come but they were all too busy. They missed a fabulous Dinner!!!

Really kind staff! I accidentally left my passport there, and when I returned the next day, I was warmly greeted and relieved to find my belongings had been kept safe. Truly appreciated! The food was also authentic and fresh. 生意興隆!

Have not been here for many years so was curious to see/experience the latest... The menu looked promising.

The crispy fried chicken, flavorful with surprisingly light & crispy skin, was very good. (As per menu, 30-minute prep time required.) Bitter melon with beef was not bad, but there was a large puddle of oil on the bottom. The special clay pot (contained some meats & seafood) was mediocre. Shrimp with lobster sauce was very salty, and unfortunately resembled scrambled eggs + shrimp instead of the expected creamy sauce.

Lasting impressions: good fried chicken, very difficult parking, and unfriendly hostess/waitress.

Walk by it all the time. Decided to get soup egg flower soup with extra veg and loved it the portion was big enough, and tasty. Also few spots walkable few blocks around that doesn’t use seafood broth for soup which helps vegetarian like me

The service was good. And the portions were huge. But the food was all on the sweet side.
