In-house made veggie spring rolls won me over. So many places have store bought items. I wasn't expecting it. Not just filled with carrots. Will be marking as a favorite. Going to have to pull out my food ctitic notebook next time.

I came here for dinner after a long day at work. The owner and cook made me feel such a warm welcome, it felt like coming loving home than a restaurant. Speaking with the staff, I felt genuinely cared for and a part of the family. The food was flavourful and filling, made fresh on the spot. I highly recommend coming here for the food and welcoming atmosphere!

I’ve been ordering takeout from this place since 1984. My daughter and I recently stopped by to pick up an order of Yang Chow rice. After living overseas for 4 years, we were excited to eat our fave rice dish and it didn’t disappoint. I was pleased to reconnect with the same woman who has been serving us for years.
