Delicious and decent food. The portion is small given the prices.

By far the best Chinese place in the area. I grew up nearby, and it was a staple for my best friend and me on our Sunday afternoons after having scoured the flea market for anything reasonably priced. The food is consistently rich and flavorful, the staff is always friendly, and the location itself is so cute. My favorite dish is the crispy beef. The portion size does suggest being split between two, but it's so good I usually just get greedy and have all of it myself. Perfectly crispy and the sauce is just sweet and savory enough, pairs perfectly with the side of rice. The classic lo mein options are also very good. With more of a mild flavor, I usually like to pair them with a protein. The fish dishes are also delicious, super fresh and rich, the spicy hot pot fish melts in your mouth. Overall my favorite place to hit up after a long day, especially in the winter 🫶

The facility is old and the taste is average below , we pick the fish for $48 plus , it is smell and fire sure dead fish and not worth the value , this restaurant not recommended . Server is fine

We paid cash. It was added 18% tips automatically on the bill, and the waitress asked me to sign on the bill, what a wired request that I never encounter.

Love this place, the Shanghai soup dumplings are amazing and this place is a hidden gem.

I genuinely hate to do this as I’ve come here a few times before and had good experiences. I have to preface this review by explaining that I have NEVER left a negative review anywhere, but was honestly shocked by my experience here!

Tonight my group waited over an hour past our pick up time for our dinner, sitting inside watching people go in and out with their food. At first, they mentioned that they couldn’t find the order and told us to wait while they figure it out. Fair enough! I’ve worked in plenty of restaurants and know this can happen! We waited while others came and went, and only a few customers were sat inside. Wouldn’t you prioritize a forgotten order over newer ones? Especially after half an hour of waiting? We were told it would be another 5 minutes multiple times. After over an hour, the manager came out with our food which we kindly re-stated how long we had been waiting and she refused to even comp a little bit of our order. It was nearly $90 total, and at ~$20 a dish, you would expect way better service.

I came home and gave them a call as this was a special occasion dinner and I just didn’t feel right about paying $90 for only half the people to be able to stay due to it being over an hour past. I kindly explained the situation and asked if there was any way she could at least refund a few of the dishes. She became incredibly defensive and told me she had “never before had a customer like me” and that I was being very mean. I understand that food businesses struggle (again, I have worked in food hospitality for years), but customers also expect a level of professionalism when forking out $20/dish! We’re all struggling with inflation! (I also am very much not a Karen and hate confrontation, that I was being “mean” for asking for some reimbursement was a crazy statement to make)

Still a bit shocked by this experience and sadly will not be returning.

This place used to be excellent but it has gone down hill, very badly. Our most recent meal was badly prepared: the signature dish, hot pot, was so over salted we had to toss it out. 70 dollars down the drain. I hope they can get their mojoe back, but I doubt it.

Stopped by on a hot day. Had some water and beer. Nice place. Food looked good, but we already ate.

visited for lunch, ordered dumplings, mapo tofu, and an iced green tea. everything was delicious and service was great. thank you !

Ordered from delivery app and the mapotofu was spoiled. It made my partner sick. She noticed it had a sour taste but tried to convince herself it was a weird recipe.Tofu has a shelf life and why someone would risk selling spoiled tofu is beyond me. The food here is pretty decent but the lack of health standards needs to be noted.
