After pulling over to gas up at QT, I spotted this place and I'm glad I did! The oxtails were great and the cabbage was better than expected. Service was excellent, almost felt like family. I look forward to returning!

First time here. Staff was nice! They make their own ginger beer. This is the real deal. They get crowded quickly so make your order early as possible. Great food! I had the ox tails sooooo good.
