We had high expectations for this restaurant as, from the photo provided on Google maps, it appeared this was a nice, sit-down restaurant and the total rating was 4.3. I was disappointed that the restaurant was dark and lacked any kind of ambiance. The food I ordered (cashew chicken) lacked sauce, the chicken was tough and the broccoli was cool. On a plus note, my husband enjoyed the hot mustard sauce and the service was excellent.

The building seemed a little old, but the food was excellent! There was also alcohol.
I had Beef noodle soup, Mapo tofu, and Furong crab (though it's not crab), and they were all very delicious.
I would like to try other menu items as well.

I personally like the food. The only place with ginger lobster dish that I prefer. I sometimes get it as take out and heat it up by putting it in the air fryer (makes it crunchy). I also love the rock tofu. Those are the two main dishes that I come for.

Two fantastic experiences! I always feel you can tell the integrity of a restaurant by their takeout service. We took a chance and ordered takeout and were so impressed. They even cared about the presentation of the food in the to-go container. So a week later we dined in for lunch and were even more impressed! The service was outstanding. The food was so fresh with great vegetables. The shrimp dishes had ample shrimp. ? The Szechuan green beans are amazing. The Kung Pao pork super fresh. Even the fried rice I don’t normally eat was great.This is my family’s new favorite Chinese place and we will be ordering way more often.Note: I will say I originally ordered orange beef and it wasn’t great. So I won’t order that again but everyone else’s dish was great and so was mine the second time.

Definitely our to go to Chinese restaurant!Don't judge a book by its cover. This restaurant is a secret gem in Cincinnati. The owners are nice once you get to know them. The food is always good whether you take out or dine in! Been coming here for the past 9 years with friends & family and it never fails :)

Solid 3 stars, the place is a bit older and not the prettiest but the hostess was fast and my lunch came out hot and within 8 minutes of me ordering.Could use a facelift inside and out, but overall a positive experience, and I would return.

Parking: The lot is long and kinda tight getting in and out. If you have a larger vehicle.
