This place is great. Carry out only at this time. They have a full menu. I have been going there for a long time and love their combo meals.

The food is unbelievably flavorful and authentic! There is both a menu for both authentic Chinese and American Chinese dishes. Everything is so fresh! My dad's and my favorite restaurant!

We tried their dim sum and steamed fish. The food and experience is great! The tofu pudding with ginger syrup is also very refreshing. Great for a chilly winter!

Had been here three times and Uber eats once, I would say it's the best spicy (call it spicy coz it has both HuNan and Szechuan dishes) Chinese food in the area. Attentive services and reasonably priced.

Good good, friendly service and a lot of options to choose from. The platter options are very good (2/3/5/.. items etc.). A good number of options are available even for vegetarians.

This place has really gone downhill. The fried dimsum we ordered (ham sui gok) was fishy and super oily. Not edible. The shrimp dumpling skin texture tasted like it was in the microwave too long and the shrimp tasted old. The pineapple bun was way...Read More

I went there this evening for the first time. I ordered a pretty standard dinner special and the chicken was way overcooked and dry. It was fried, but it was like having it fried twice. More than a couple were too tough to even...Read More

Amazing dim sum! Great selection of delicious, fresh food. I went with a family who used to live in China, and they said the food was very authentic. The chicken feet were good but spicy. The don tat and pork dumplings in particular were delicious.

This place has had a very storied and controversial past, and it looks like it's demons are still haunting it. The atmosphere was like a poor attempt at mimicking a 1960's shopping mall with the same coldness and stark panels on the walls. Only Dim...Read More

Excellent food -- basically every dish we had for our Chinese New Year meal was really good. Seasoning was well-done (not overly salted), flavors were fresh and bright. Especially good was the pork with black bean sauce.
