Incredible experience - The staff were so accommodating and the food was genuinely the best Chinese I've ever had.
I had the soup dumplings which were so good I ordered seconds, followed by the pork belly bun which was recommended to me and I couldn't have been more happy!
I'm annoyed I only came across this place on the last day of my trip in LA or I would've come multiple times
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I have only ordered online so cannot rate service and atmosphere. The food has come quickly and is hot and well packaged. Then the best is that it is really good and there is a lot of selection. Try it out.

Wandering along the street and popped into this great restaurant. We had spicy pork dumplings for a starter which were absolutely delicious. We shared the beef black pepper and shrimp fried rice which were both extremely tasty. Great food and service.

Wish there was more options. They cook with no tamari for gluten free.

The Mapo Tofu and the Soup Dumplings are so delicious. Crab fried rice was perfect with the right amount of Wok Hei flavor!

The atmosphere and service were great and reasonably priced, but the food needs improvement. I didn’t enjoy the taste.

Had dinner here during a long layover at LAX. Food was just OK. The first red flag was that none of the service nor kitchen staff were Chinese or even Asian. The second red flag was that none of the guests except our table were Chinese/Asians either. Ordered some fried rice, noodles, dumplings, Xiao Long baos, bok choy and mapo tofu to share. The pork chop fried rice was decent but no wok hei, chicken fried rice was kind if bland, ox tail noodles were extremely bland, bok choy was decent, chicken dan mein was OK, mapo tofu didn't hit the spot. Service was decent and ambience was bright and modern like their name.
