Reviews
Decent enough Chinese spot right in the middle of downtown. Though it's nothing special, the food is all a bit lacking. If you want good Chinese food and can spare 15 minutes, go down to Chinatown
This place was great! So great in fact that we ate here twice in 3 days. The first time I got their chow mein noodles, which they say was their specialty. They were very good and I found it to be a rather generous portion. The second time, I got cumin lamb, which was also quite good. Both times we also shared some crab Rangoons and my wife got some kind of breaded chicken (sesame chicken?) and shared that with our daughter. The chicken and lamb came with a side of rice. The place is nice, clean and modern; people seemed to be dressed a bit nicer than average there. Service was good and they brought our food out faster than I expected. Overall, the food was great, there are still other things on their menu I want to try, the prices were fair and the service was good. If I find myself around here at meal time, Im sure I'll be going back.
Came here to dinner after a long day, we got here close to closing hours and the service was still on point, i ordered the thai bowl and it was delicious, but consider ordering one dish for 2 people if you are not that hungry
Texture of the noodles were a little too soft for my preference. Service is fantastic and open to customizations. Stick to the schezuan dishes.
I wanted to like this place, but I have to say I was a bit let down. The twice cooked pork and vegetable delight came out very quickly, and did taste a bit like it was directly reheated (also thought the flavor was a bit lacking from the twice cooked pork). That being said, the crab noodles which are not pictured were absolutely delicious. In addition, the service was solid and the atmosphere is quite nice. Perfect for a quick meal on a Sunday evening if you’re in the area craving Chinese food. If the twice cooked pork were better, I’d be much more of a fan.
