Another Yelp gem! Our family was craving traditional Chinese food. Most of the places I was finding in the area were mainly Americanized Chinese food. Even this place had mainly general tsos chicken and the such in their pictures but I saw the high reviews and their menu had a different section for chefs speciality items. Those items looked more traditional even though the reviews didn’t reflect a lot of people necessarily ordering it, was worth a shot.
Upon getting seated, we noticed that yes their menu was heavily pushing the Americanized options there was a whole page dedicated to traditional options. They start your table off with fried wonton strips, like the ones you put on top of soups. My kids love this!
We ordered 4 entrees the eggplant, the beef and bok choy, the peppery pork chops, and the black pepper shrimp.
My favorite was the black pepper shrimp, they use big shrimps here and it’s not overly salty. The beef and bok Choy was loaded with beef, the eggplant stayed crispy, not mushy, and pork chops were extra crispy. Each plate was huge, and plenty for our family of 6 with leftovers.
The meal ended with complimentary red bean sesame balls, and this was the best part of the meal! My kids ate them all up.
The service was super attentive, they were constantly refilling drinks and fulfilling any requests. Truly a hidden gem in SA.

Ordered food to go, I was surprised, it wasn’t that good, the sesame chicken was dry and no sauce. The fried rice is plain, big portion though. Egg drop soup was great.

The portions are generous to say the least, especially for the value! My wife and I both got the dinner special plates which came with a small Appetizer, soup, noodles, and protein. Honestly we both could have shared one single Special, we ended up having dinner that night and both a left over lunch portion for the next day for under $30. Taste was a 8.5/10, honestly once again great value for your money here in terms of flavor and quantity.

I have to say this place was in my top 3 best Chinese food restaurants. But today has to be my last time coming. Service is fast and it’s nice place to eat in. But the food quality has took such a plunge that it’s not worth the higher prices. I’ve been coming here for 10 plus years, the last 5 visits have been disappointing. Today I decided to try one more time. Getting a meal that supposed to be mostly beef. Was mostly veggies with a barely any meat. But worst of all was the flavor, or lack of flavor. So plain that I needed to add my own sauce. Not sure if they went through a staff change. But something has definitely changed.
Best spot in town for this type of cuisine. Very nice and clean, great service. Highly recommend.

Pretty good food, not my favorite, but definitely enjoyable! I did take out for lunch, but hope to come again and eat in, the place looks really nice inside. Would not go for dinner though with how high the prices are.
