I'm a vegetarian, and they have a lot of vegan options. They have General Tso's tofu, Sichuan tofu, and . The sauce is rich and spicy, the spice level is just right, the prices are reasonable, the portions are generous, and the waiters are friendly and attentive. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone who loves Chinese food! Five stars!
