Avoid this place – zero service and aggressive pressure for HIGH TIPS.
There was basically no service at all. You pour your own water, and the only thing the staff does is bring the food. When we asked for the check, we told the owner we only had two dollars in small bills left for tip, since all our other cash was large bills. She kept repeating “this cannot be tip” multiple times and insisted we hand her more cash so she could give us change to pay as tip, clearly pushing us to tip more. It was insane and completely inappropriate.
On top of that, they force customers to pay in cash to avoid tax, yet still charge tax and expect a high tip. Truly unacceptable.

Food portion are huge, normal not fantastic. Didn’t like the tips being demanded as a must with a specific amount. Come at your own risk

One of the few places that opens for breakfast in Chinatown on the weekends now. Can go with breakfast combos or go with chow mein, chow fun or congee. Good amount of food for its price point, but taste of the food is lacking. Mainly a place to grab a bite to fill yourself and/or your party early in the day before you spend hours shopping for groceries and other things around Chinatown.

The staff upcharged us and made us pay more than what we ordered. They also pressure tipping. Will NOT be coming back.

I basically never write any reviews - but that's been such a bad experience.
We were not happy with the food & service (the duck was bones and fat, we asked for some white rice which never came - we didn't have any with out food, noodles were strangely dry).
They started to become aggressive when we didn't want to pay cash (we use credit cards). We got more and more uncomfortable. Then they proceeded that we couldn't have the receipt. They didn't respect physical distance (blocking us) and became even more aggressive regarding the tip (they wanted more). Then they insulted us. We took the tip back with us from the table and left, they became super aggressive and harassed us even further.
We were nothing but clean and respectful guests.

Minced beef wasn't that great but the roasted duck was delicious. Service wasn't pleasant cause it was the type where its the communication was too fast and high expectations. On top of that the waiter was expected a tip when we waited to pay. The atmosphere was too live becuase when I first entered, a random person came up to me and try to sell some earpods, and towards the end of my meal session, there was loud and rowdy motorcyclists passing by.

Char siew & wonton noodle. The char siew was so fresh and meaty! Not fatty. I loved how much they put on my bowl of noodles. The Wontons have huge shrimps inside!
Goose rice. And the goose is flavorful and tender.

Came for the wonton noodle soup. It’s been over 15 years since my last visit. Good to know it’s still here with the classic items. It’s a relatively affordable place. The wonton noodles were average, perhaps a bit overcooked. The broth was kinda flat and the wonton is average as expected. Nothing stood out other than I wanted to revisit this place after all these years.

This place serves some of the best Chinese cuisine I've had in a while—absolutely delicious and incredibly reasonably priced! The portions are generous and shareable, making it perfect for friends or family, and you can really enjoy a variety of dishes without breaking the bank. The only downside is that if you split an entrée, there's a $2 share charge, which is a bit of a bummer, but overall, the food quality and prices make up for it. Highly recommend for anyone craving flavorful Chinese food at a great value!
