One of the best Chinese BBQ spots in the Southbay and their aren't many. Good comforting good and the atmosphere and decor is the same as any Chinese BBQ place you would ever visit. Nothing fancy here, but we come for the food and not an art gallery.Don't ever forget the plum sauce with your roast duck or you'll be missing out. Sauces and napkins are self serve.Always hits the spot and fulfills my cravings.

One of the best hole in the wall Chinese joint. Food is absolutely MSG delicious. If you want to eat healthy, I recommend you go elsewhere. But if you're up for good old-fashioned quick Chinese food, come here. Roast duck is good. Peking spare ribs is bomb, but it is recommended to eat it at the spot (instead of takeout) while it's hot and crispy. House fried rice...the glistening of the dish will call your name. Best of all, they have this sauteed spicy chili paste...

Alright food. Not the best not the worst. Compared to most other places, i suppose this isn't too bad pricing wise. Ordered a beer chow fun to go. Bit on the light side and the taste a bit bland. Had to add more sauce in myself.
