Stopped by on a whim and saw a bunch of 9.99 specials including pan fried flounder, crispy chicken, and a few other dishes. Ordered some for home and food tasted good, probably better eating there. The waiter was super nice, while waiting offered a seat and tea. Though i think they may need an additional waiter, saw people come in and had to wait a minute to see the waiter to get a table.

This restaurant exceeded expectations with delicious food, a $10 lunch special, coupled with friendly service from staff and the owner. Generous portions made it a satisfying and budget-friendly dining experience.

Open 3 months, both phone numbers not working, menu pricing wrong, owner and his buddies blasting cigs in the restaurant getting wasted before noon. Truly amazing.Get the mapo tofu it's very very good. Kitchen knows what they are doing.

Vegetarian options: All of them are incidentally vegan. It's Chinese food.

Modest looking place with a great kitchen making a mix of Cantonese, Fujianese and Szechuan dishes. We let the owner drive and had an amazing meal for an amazingly low price.

Saw the $9.99 and $12.95 specials outside and thought to give it a try. Wasn’t expecting much, for that price either the quality or the quantity should take a hit. Boy was I wrong, quality and quantity was much better than I expected. I recommend the stuffed tofu for $9.99 and the walnut shrimp for $12.95 (I’ve seen this dish go for $24+ at other restaurants). Very kind and attentive servers as well. I will be coming back for sure to try the other options!

Great little new Cantonese restaurant in elmhurst, right next to the food court (as it took some of the food court's space). I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. Cantonese is generally not my favorite, but these two dishes - the stuffed bean curd (shrimp inside) and the short ribs with shallots - were nicely done. Neither were greasy and the both had a lot of flavor. Ask for the chili sauce as they make it themselves and it has a nice zing of ginger. We will definitely be back!

The owner is the sweetest guy ever and he was the person taking the order and bringing everything. He answered whatever questions I had about the dishes both in English and Cantonese, hahah, the American that I am.We ordered from the special menu:-Beef short ribs with shallots $12.95-Peking Pork Chops $9.99Off-menu-Pan Fried Noodles with beefThe prices are fair for the portion especially the specials. The food was tasty. All I said before leaving, when are we coming back for lunch again?!

We ordered the black fish special which comes in a soup and fillet stir fry with veggies. They were delicious. The crispy chicken was tasty and was actually crispy although the meat was on the dry side. The other four dishes were decent except we had to return the cubed steak with vegetables: the overall dish was good except the steak itself (sadly, it was like cardboard). I hope that their chef can improve on making that steak tender cuz everything else in that dish was very good.The staff was friendly but I think they probably need another person during busy time.
