We stopped by for dinner on a Wed night. It was around 6-6:30. There were maybe 6 people eating in. There seemed to be lots of take out. The inside dining space was very dimly lit. Hubby wanted sushi. They have BOGOF. I did not find the sushi to be very good. We got spicy shrimp rolls and I couldn't find either the shrimp or the spice. The crab Rangoon appetizer was a winner. We also got a chicken pad Thai to split. Also not so good. Too sweet and not spicy enough. Even though I ordered chicken, I found more tofu in the dish than chicken. In my opinion, the menu is too big. Make it smaller and prepare those dishes really well. We may try again - but I really doubt it.

I've visited this place a couple times and have ordered 8 different menu items - nothing tasted like authentic "Chinese take out". Most of the items were also under seasoned and bland.Service was so-so.

Used to love this place. But they have declined their quality and service lately. Grabbed some dumplings for takeout and they were RAW. Called the restaurant and they didn’t offer a refund, just told me to drive all the way back out for them to make another…

My family of 6 including 4 kids came in on one Sunday evening to dine in. They immediately greeted and seated us. It was really dark with barely any lighting and I didn't like the setting of the takeout area. It's more of a date night spot for sure. The first thing I noticed was how sticky the table was, like unbelievably sticky. They were noticeably clean but hella sticky. Everything we placed up there stuck to it. We came at a good time because no one was here. They also only had one server. We did have to wait a little longer than expected to order an appetizer and they didn't come to pick up our plates after we finished our appetizers. The appetizer ordered were edamame and scallion cakes. My fam enjoyed them both. We actually wish we ordered more because it wasn't enough for all of us. The server slacked for us to be her only table. She didn't really check on us. She was friendly just was a little slower on some things. I had asked for some lemon wedges to add to our water and she only brought back 3, even though we had 6 cups. Before I could ask for more, she had walked back to the other side of the restaurant and sat down in a booth. We ordered six 8-piece rolls. All the rolls were pretty good. We had no complaints on the food. Overall, this place was good. I probably wouldn't come back with my kids though lol.

Great place for take out! Food comes out hot and relatively quick. The egg rolls are excellent. Nice size portions. Dine in seems dark and cramped. Staff could use a boost on friendliness.

This is our go to sushi restaurant in chapel hill/ durham. The sushi is consistent and delicious. The sushi chef is one of the best I’ve seen in this area. It’s always superb sush. My particular favorite is going during their lunch special , which includes weekdays and Saturdays. My children love the sushi and we get a couple of the triples that include 3 rolls with soup or salad. We love their spicy tuna, spicy yellowtail, Philadelphia roll, and generally the rest of their menu is all really amazing. The price is amazing and we always devour all the food. If you are someone who cares about quality, ratios, and consistency, then you will love it like we do. They do have a list of fancier rolls that we occasionally get and are also amazing. But we keep coming back because we hit the perfect balance between amazing cost and amazing, delicious food. You get the best quality and the best price here and it’s so worth it! Highly recommend it!

I went more for the Chinese menu, but they have a range of Asian dishes. One of the better Chinese places that I've been to.The flavors were really good and consistent. A little pricy, but not completely unreasonable. Portions were good.The ma po tofu was sweeter than I'm used to, so wouldn't get that again. But we also had dumplings, beef lomein, and orange chicken, all of which i would recommend again.
