I get why people love this place but it's just not my thing. Don't let me stop you from enjoying some great Hong Kong style Chinese food, because it's obviously a popular spot.
The service is great, the price is right, and the vibe feels like a Shaw Brothers movie from the 80's. Pay them a visit.

I only have experience with takeout, but the food isn't worth spending money on, there are better places that cost the same or less close by.

This is a traditional Cantonese restaurant that has been in operation for decades. While it now appears somewhat old-fashioned, one can imagine that it was once beautifully decorated.
The restaurant specializes in various classic Cantonese dishes such as white-cut chicken, soy sauce chicken, pipa duck, Cantonese-style char siu, and cured meats. The flavors are very authentic.
If you enjoy traditional Cantonese cuisine, this place is a great choice.
There are plenty of free parking space in front of the restaurant so that you don’t have to worry.
Delicious lunch entrée at a great price, with tea included!

Delicious, fast, healthy and authentic Hong Kong style.
The expanded hours are great... Now open till 10!
The parking is often full but if you wait a minute someone shopping at the liquor store will leave.
Good for families. We brought our own takeout containers to avoid plastic, and has plenty to take home. Very generous portions.
We asked for the fried tofu and vegetables to be steamed instead, and it was even better.
So delicious!
The staff is courteous and friendly. Service is quick. The restaurant is simple and authentic. It's a refreshing change from the dolled up restaurants with fancy dishes that cost a fortune and leave you hungry.
Vegetarian options: They cook from scratch so you can ask for dishes to be made the way you like them, without meat or adding tofu.

I often ate at his old restaurant 25 years ago. Last time I went back to Maryland, I saw they had moved here and tried it. The same recipe and the same taste.

Went here a few times. For a Chinese restaurant located in DC, I will say it’s good Chinese food and okay service. Every time, I ate there, the food tasted great. The waiters that served were all polite and open to questions.

Authentic Cantonese food! I am a fan of their shrimp/pork wonton noodle soups, and their char siu pork. Roast duck is on display for ordering too! They serve up many great authentic Cantonese dishes, like beef tendon... which is a delicacy. If you would rather not want to experience authentic Cantonese cuisine, they also have Americanized Chinese classics available.
We read the reviews before coming here and thought we'd check it out since the reviews said they were good. We are avid travelers so we have tried everything and thought that apparently this place had a more Hong Kong style of Chinese food. The ambience was really nice and clean. The service was good but could have been better by offered recommendations or asking what we were interested in being that it was our first time. They could have asked if it was our first time. I love seafood so we ordered a fried salty shrimp, squid and scallop dish. There were only 2 shrimps and 2 scallops and a plate full of squid. I was disappointed since squid is the cheapest of the 3 and this plate was expensive. We ordered some beef brisket and it was full of tendons not meat which was also pricey. They claim that tendons is the most expensive part of the dish however, if that were the case, why fill the plate with the most expensive but when eating the seafood we had the most of the cheapest seafood. I was disappointed in the food in general and would not recommend them if you are looking for quality meats. The pictures below show that there is all tendons in the beef brisket dish and all squid in the seafood dish
