Jason, the proprietor, was very friendly and engaging. He made menu suggestions, had conversation with our table and even surprised my GF with birthday fried ice cream. Good experience, tasty food and decently priced. Worth a visit

The service was great,portions were awesome, the decor was inviting wasnt over done. Overall great experience. The flavor was fantastic. Ordered their house fried rice chuck ful of the meat options unlike some places where they only put in a few dainty pieces.

This place had food that was so good I'd have to say top 3 places I've ever eaten in the world..no joke..the flavors were completely amazing, you will never eat fast food asian again after this! Our first time there and we are hooked! Just try it! Happy hour 4pm till 7pm, half price appetizers and $2 good beers! I have not tasted food like this in the U.S. ever.

Walking downtown Lincoln and came in here really just to warm up and try it. Most likely one of my new favorite places. Ever. Tried tomato and egg soup. Who knew? Also had vegetable fried rice, 6-7/10 spicy, 10/10 taste! Can’t beat the prices either.

We got to the restraunt about an hour before closing with a large group. We were seated at a round table very fast and the owner made us specialty drinks that were amazing. We were not sure of what to order so the kitchen made a bunch of different options for us to try and everything was amazing!!!!! They even catered to a vegetarian in our group. The service was amazing and the food left us speechless. I highly recommend doing the family style dinner. Words cannot describe the experience we had at this restaurant you just have to experience it yourself.

Very authentic Sichuan dishes! I love all the dishes I ordered. The environment is also good. Sunday is free parking in the front of the restaurant.

Apparently been 2 years since our last here. Lunch today off the specials menu. All very good and service just right again. Small lunch crowd here now, but is after noon rush. Our selections all good and better.

My friends and I were looking for a place to eat and decided on this place. Okay I'll be honest, I was just really stubborn and saw this and nothing else was gonna change my mind. We went primarily for hot pot. There was some confusion at first because we got the regular menu and there is a hot pot entree. But when we asked, they said that hot pot entree just has the food and no broth. Instead the waitress gave us a bottomless hot pot menu after we clarified what we were looking to eat. The bottomless hot pot is $30 and you mark the type of broth and meats/veggies, etc. They will bring everything out and it seems there is no time limit. However, they took their sweet time bringing stuff out for us to eat. We were there for over 3 hours which was a little frustrating. They do have a lot of options to put in the hot pot on the menu for you to choose from. We thought it was funny that we marked bamboo shoots twice and they never brought it out. Instead they gave us something else that we did not even mark to have. Fortunately none of us have food allergies. I would not go here regularly and only on special occasions would I want to go here. The food is delicious but their service is severely lacking. For example, they had dirty cups and bowls still on their table from the night before. We were informed that they stay open late so that is a perk for late night eating. This place does have many food options for everyone to try.
Great service! Great food! And lovely atmosphere! I had the sushi and my hubby had a beef plate. Nice combination of authentic and American Asian cuisine! They have $5 sushi half roll for happy hour which allows one to taste more than one. I will be coming back to this place to have some of the more authentic dishes... toasted duck and duck tongues I'm sad to say that the food quality has gone down. This place no longer serves sushi and both Kung Pao and Cashew Chicken has exactly the same taste, same sauce and very similar look. I finally had the smoked duck, it's was served with a clear sauce on the sauce and white rice. It would have been nice to have at least hot fresh rice served. Food overall was cold and not what we expected.

Good food and excellent service! Nice patio with live Jazz! Would highly Recommend. Best Asian restaurant in Lincoln. Located in historic Haymarket!

with a whopping price of about $30 per person we expected better. we went to this place mainly because of the hotpot and to say that we were disappointed would be an understatement. although there was a nice wide variety of options for the hotpot items, each serving of meat product GREATLY outnumbered the seafood servings. the meats were subpar, definitely not with the price and honestly the seafood was the best part. we were told it was unlimited as long as we finish so we found ourselves desperately trying to finish off the meat options that became so unappetizing. more importantly, our noodles had some nasty green stuff in the middle of it that was not our doing but when we asked our server about it, she just brushed it off. oh and about the service, it was terribly lacking. no one was checking in with us every now and then to see if everything was alright at all and we would have to go find them every time there was an issue. it was also really hard to communicate with them too since they were busy listening to their own music. all in all, the price was WAY OVERPRICED for some frozen foods you could buy at your local super saver and the service is basically nothing of importance there. would not recommend

Good food and good service. Gratuity wasn't automatically added, as I see in some reviews. I recommend this place. Beware, hot spice is hot!
