So ordered steamed pork dumplings, scallion pancakes, hot and sour soup, and corn chowder soup. The food was pretty good. I think I liked the scallion pancakes the best.The restaurant was pretty noisy with a building Sunday crowd.

My experience at this restaurant was extremely disappointing. Firstly, the dishes lacked seasoning entirely, making them taste bland and unappetizing. Additionally, the prices charged are excessively high for the mediocre quality of the food offered. Furthermore, the service at the cash register was unpleasant, the cashier was not only unwelcoming but also pushy. She constantly reminded us that the kitchen was closing and urged us to order quickly, all while continuing to let new customers enter. Finally, when we asked questions about the menu, her responses were terse and devoid of any willingness to assist us. Overall, I absolutely do not recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an enjoyable culinary experience.

I’ve been coming here for a year and food is pretty consistent and fine for the price. Today, I got beef lomein takeout and it tasted like fish. It was completely inedible. I called for a refund and they told me I had to come back to process the refund. I went to the restaurant and they then told me they couldn’t refund me or give me a gift card…. So now have been waiting 20 minutes for other food that they offered as a replacement that I don’t want. Needless to say will be finding a new place to order from.

Amazing food for a great price. The shrimp dumplings were perfectly cooked. Hot and sour soup had just the right kick! For an entree, i highly recommend the sizzling seafood with garlic sauce. Service was friendly and efficient. Can't wait to return!

I went in and ordered food late one night and it was clear the food had been sitting for a while because it was not hot. I ended up getting food poisoning from it.
