Great food and beautiful price! Try their “rice in clay pot”. Also other pot dishes.

Service and other aspect is look old Chinese restaurant, not too bad.

At 10am on a Saturday morning, this place is PACKED and you actually have to wait. The claypot rice here is excellent…crispy, fragrant and beautifully cooked.

I would recommend getting vegetable soup to help wash things down. We got the pea sprouts (上湯豆苗) and the broth was clean and flavorful without being too salty.

Probably one of the most authentic and affordable Toisan spots in the area. The boss lady speaks Mandarin, Cantonese and Taishanese. Cash only and parking is difficult in the area.

I ordered a lamb brisket rice dish. It came with a large amount of rice and very little vegetables.
Most of the lamb was just bones. There were only two or three small pieces of actual meat.
The big bones were mostly tendons, very hard to chew and almost impossible to eat.
Overall, it was a very disappointing experience.
I don’t recommend this place. I paid $17 for this meal, and it was definitely not worth the price.

The fish & tofu claypot exceeded expectations. I am gonna try the beef one next time. The Chinese sausage rice claypot was good too in a way that the rice was steamed well and not overly crispy.

No frills claypot rice place with generous portions and very affordable pricing. At $12 a bowl of claypot rice (small size), I can see why this place always have a line during lunch hours. The rice crisp is perfectly cooked, not burnt like other claypot places. This place is small and only accepts cash if you want to visit.

Prefect place to get a authentic Cantonese claypot rice, prefect cook with the prefect crispy rice crackling on the exterior, well seasoned and they provide a sauce by the side where you can add according to your preference. The place is small with limited seating and may take up some time to get a table and to wait for your food.

I recommend not to come if you’re on a rush or can’t wait.

Clay pot rice and pea shoots are delicious. Good wok fire. Service is terrible but you’re not there for the service. Great spot!
