Surprisingly authentic Chinese food here; I regularly order them every two weeks! So affordable, great quality, and fast service. Can’t go wrong with their soup dumplings— they’re not really soupy but they’re delicious. You really need to know what you’re ordering at this restaurant; the best option is just to ask or tell them directly what flavor profile you’re looking for. Some foods are going to be hit and miss, but I found the more traditionally Chinese food phenomenal. It’s a tiny place so don’t expect anything fancy or flavor-packed. I feel like the people who gave bad reviews have unrealistic expectations about the restaurant, not to mention Americanized Chinese food obviously almost always pales in comparison with oilier and bolder authentic dishes and they never specified what dishes are the bad ones. Take the reviews with a grain of salt.

Ordered through Grubhub; delivery was quick and courteous. The Mala spicy beef is exceptionally flavorful and tender. The onions and green pepper are expertly cooked, maintaining their crisp texture and bite. If you are feeling adventurous and want to experience the numbing schezuan peppercorn, I highly recommend it. The spice is warm and numbing but didn’t blow out my pallet. Shanghai Style Pan-Fried Pork Buns were fluffy, tender, and super satisfying. The inside of the bun had a juicy pork meatball packed with savory flavor. Overall the food was delicious, even though it was only a small sampling.
This restaurant is the one I like best. I visit many restaurants but here I go the most. The team is very receptive and the cooking they offer is so yummy. I never decline to have a nice meal here. I highly recommend this place.
I absolutely love the food. It is my go to on a carry-out night. However, they often blatantly ignore any special requests. I order through Grubhub and practically beg for extra sides of sauce, putting it in multiple special request sections, making it as clear as I can. But half the time I get no extra sauce or I get even less than what the regular order comes with. It's not a dealbreaker but it irks me. But like I said, the food is great.
Very tiny and dirty place, slow as well. Nice mural though.
