Famous Food Chinese Restaurant

Humble family business style Chinese restaurant. Their food is very like dad mom’s cooking with good and fresh ingredients. All people are nice. This has been my go to place to eat.

Hole in the wall place. Inexpensive price, unfortunately food quality reflects that.

This restaurant is more of a takeaway place because there were only 5-6 small tables inside. We came here for the weekend special menu and were a bit disappointed by almost everything. The tofu bean curd with savoury sauce and the tea eggs barely had any flavour, the buns we ordered were just ok, the Tianjin style crepe was disappointing too, it was so thin and really wasn’t worth it. The only thing we liked was the fried dough stick, it was fluffy and crispy. We over ordered and paid $68 (two people, tips included) for everything in the picture. Will not return.

Food is not too bad, but they dont speak English. I suggest you look at the wall. Or the paper menu tape to the counter window. If you dont, the other menu is expensive. I dislike restaurants with QR code (that require you to order from phone) because service is bad. The tables are very close together so whoever sit on inside cannot come out. This would be no big deal if there were service.
But the waitress took the water pitcher away when my glass was empty, I could not get up to refill on my own. It is like they have no brain. The food took awhile so dont put the pitcher on next table, or if you do that make sure no ones glass is empty.
The food good but they double charge us for shepards purse wonton. They charge 14.99 twice. This wonton soup was not very good. It was average but did not have the shepard purse flavour. Just taste salt. So not worth 14.99. Our bill came out 89 plus over 102 with tip because they double charge us. I caught the mistake & they did offer to take it off but Dad got extra buns instead. I think this place is kind of expensive & tables are too crowded. Waitress appear for 2 seconds then disappear. Its annoying

This review is for Jiangbing served only on weekends at this location.

When I lived in Beijing in the late 80’s I would start my day with one. The kids who ran the street food cart made my crepe with 2 eggs, diced spring onion sesame seeds on top with Youtiao and hot sauce wrapped inside.

This restaurant nailed it for me. They spoke perfect English and made mine perfectly. There is no other dish or menu item similar to this in the world that combines these flavors textures and taste. A decent blend of protein carbs and spice to start the day or fill an empty belly.

Will definitely be back.

It was quiet and quick service!

Loved the eggplant bao!

Very bad service, staff were always busy with something, paying no attention to customers. They did not wear any gloves when handling food, leaving concern about food hygiene.

food: This is the first time I eat pancakes without any fillings (without any vegetables, onions, meat, etc.). Maybe everything eaten in China is fake.
service: attitude is okay
Atmosphere: The store is chaotic. Takeout only.
