Not sure why the rating is only 4.0 when it should be at least 4.5! It's such a nice and cozy spot to get a Chinese comfort food!!

Loved the mapo tofu and chong qing style diced fried chicken (also they came with free white rice)! They're super delicious!

Reasonably priced and generous portion! Staffs were very friendly as well!

Can't wait to be back!

Clean and cozy place with excellent food. You could smell the freshly cut greens in the soup. Meat is tender and rich with the sauce flavours, not overcooked with some sauce on top like in many other establishments
