We really enjoyed our dining experience. We had our order delivered to Archetype Brewing next door which was a neat concept! We ordered the dumplings, veggie spring rolls, and the basil eggplant. Though all were delicious, the eggplant was extremely savory and a side of rice would have really complimented the dish and allowed the full flavor of the sauce to be absorbed. We’ll definitely try this spot again. :)

Excellent option if you are vegan and craving something good! With both indoor and outdoor seating, a quite atmosphere, and kind service, I would definitely recommend giving Gan Shan a try. (P.S. if you are a pickle fanatic, try their pickles)

Stumbled upon this cute spot and was pleasantly surprised! We started with the pork dumplings, they were good but could have used a little more chili oil. For our entrees we shared the general tsos chicken and the curry fried rice. Both were fantastic! Lots of flavor. Also, they are currently donating funds to the Texas flood victims with every purchase of Bushido sake. We will absolutely be back!
