A really lovely place with decently affordable lunch specials. Fast and excellent service. Lunch special came with choice of crab rangoons or spring rolls as well as fried or steamed rice and hot and sour soup.Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is up a set of stairs and I didn't see an elevator.

The building is beautiful, very fast service. The food is pretty good but a little too much oil.

Order food online but not available 2 hours later. The front desk lady had a stone face and try to up-sell stuff just like other reviewer said. Used to be better than now. I will NEVER come back.

If there were half stars, I’d probably give a 3.5, but I’m rounding up to 4 because I would go back for sure.I started with a mai tai which was just ok. They don’t have a lot of tiki cocktails on the menu but maybe they can make the basics. I’ll try something else next time.For an appetizer we got crab Rangoon. It was minimally stuffed and not very good. It should be avoided.Dinner was much better. The half peking duck was good. The meat was excellent and the veggies were fresh, though the pancakes were more like a tortilla than a traditional peking pancake.The spicy sautéed cabbage was amazing. I highly recommend the cabbage, particularly with the duck.The service was efficient even though the dining room was pretty crowded. The atmosphere is nice, above average for a traditional Chinese restaurant.Bottom line: I’m looking for a Chinese restaurant near by to be my go to. I’m not sure this is it, but I would go back again.

Not authentic, the food is far away from expectations. Almost every dish came out as a shock. Smaller plate, pricier, not tasty. I tried 8 dishes and came to this conclusion.

We’ve been here multiple times and never been disappointed. Until this evening. Our order was over $70 and it was not worth. One of the items ordered was Beef Lo Mein and it had 4 pieces of meat, I ordered beef but got pork. Additionally most of the noodles were burnt. This was a pick order, so I didn’t notice until I got home.

Nice decor. Menu looks good. Food was good. Missing little things...details. For a Conch dish, it is usually served with shrimp sauce/paste. They did not. We ordered a dish, but when they started serving us our entrees, told us one entree was not available and we picked another dish which turned out to be not as good as in Boston Chinatown. Speaking of which, in Boston Chinatown, after a meal, would serve complimentary dessert, like fresh slices of oranges or bowls of hot tapioca with red beans. They do not. Overall, a pleasant dinner and good service.

This place should be jammed every night of the week given how good the food is. The ownership and service is somehow even better. Frances is amazing and if you are lucky enough to have Kenny as your server you're in for a great night, he is the absolute best. If you're open to it, Kenny will make suggestions on new dishes to try, and he has never been wrong. This is our favorite spot in Lexington.

Food here is excellent and our toddler enjoys eating their lomein, broccoli, green beans and rice. She can be rather picky so we'll glad there is something she likes here. Hoping they we'll eventually try everything on the menu.

I came in with my family to have Peking Duck, which we haven't had in many years since traveling to Beijing. While the duck was good, I wish it came with traditional spring pancakes instead of flour tortillas.

A good restaurant with decent chinese food. Highly recommend the “chinese spaetzle and egg drop soup”. Also, they have plenty outside seats on the second floor, which is very nice during summer time.

With the hope of finding a few authentic Chinese dishes in this restaurant, it turned out to be a little disappointed. We ordered jellyfish with cucumber (good), Chinese spaetzle and egg drop soup (ok), shrimp stuff eggplant in black sauce (ok), sauteed sea conch with mixed vegetables (ok), salt & pepper small smelt (good but not crispy enough), and pot-roast pork with scallion pancake platter (ok). The service was good and the place is big and clean.
