Worst food ever. I came here for the first time. I ordered multiple items and every single one of them was inedible, yes it was that bad. I never throw away food, and this place took took cake for it since I had to trash everything. The fried rice had no flavor, the lo mein was mainly sprouts and little flavor. The lemon chicken was so over cooked I couldn't eat it. As you can see from the photo they probably didn't wash the lemon as the sticker is still on the piece. The shrimp toast was rubbery and clearly from a frozen package. I have never had such bad food on every single level. Not only that, they keep their kitchen door open to the outside letting bugs fly in.

First and last time ordering! Food was hot…good! Food was bland inside and out. Dumplings taste like processed meat/pork, shrimp toast was all fish, all food was bland…had to season myself, still didn’t help! Requested soy sauce duck sauce…not included! Husband order was supposed to be spicy…not! Sorry, I am first one to compliment a place ignore bad food, but this was so bad I had to say something. They also mandated a $10 tip for restaurant with tip to driver. Grub Hub deserved the entire tip!

I was actually very disappointed, I have ate at this establishment for over 20 years. The shrimp I received were very slimy, the chicken I received was a very dark color and did not taste like chicken. I don’t even want to know what my daughter are. The soup was ok and that’s the only reason I gave this place 2 stars. Just a word for the wise, you can’t raise your prices like that and serve food like that. I won’t be returning.

This is another small, family run business that seems to be pretty well run. Tables are appropriately spaced, and we've never had to wait long if wait at all for a seat. Food has always been good and the services been good as well. My only suggestion is that if you're really not that hungry, be careful what you order. The servings are pretty big. Even the lunch fried rice serving was huge. Well worth the trip, two thumbs up. Book a table now

The restaurant has a truly elegant atmosphere and a fantastic location, but unfortunately, the food falls short. The shrimp was chewy, and the black bean sauce was bland. The duck dish was slightly better; while the meat was tender, the sauce lacked creativity. The soup was disappointing—bland and tasteless. This place could be great for drinks at the bar and enjoying the ambiance, but I wouldn't recommend dining here.

stopped by here recently, early Friday evening, first time in many years. I had shrimp and lobster sauce with sweet and sour soup. Based on recent reviews I was a bit hesitant, but it wasn't bad at all ! The only thing was it was priced high. The food was at least average or above compared with other Chinese restaurants in the area, just a tad more expensive. Waitress was good! I will return.

Everything about this place is great except the loud obnoxious customers who are almost always there. Just because you're in a group does not mean the entire room wants to hear your conversation ? The staff can't really control that though. If you love quality authentic Chinese you'll love this restaurant

Visiting from out of town. This place has a lovely atmosphere. Well decorated but not overly so. The hot and sour soup was fabulous! I'd love to come back if I'm in the area again. Book a table now
