February 2024: Enjoyed a Lunar New Year lunch with pork dumplings and mu shu vegetables (not the most traditional Chinese dish but it sounded good). Dumplings were very tasty 😋. Each order came with 15 dumplings. The mu shu vegetables came with six thin wraps. Nice assortment of vegetables. Overall, had a great lunch and would come back again for more delicious food!

Excellent next level Chinese restaurant with friendly staff. Given the large size of the dishes which can be shared by several people the prices were actually quite affordable. They have several signature dishes that I have not seen at other restaurants, a big variety of offerings, and we were very impressed by the flavorful quality of the food. The staff was also very helpful. We had the half tea smoked duck which was excellent as well as several other unique delicious entries. They have brown rice available too.

Been here 10 years ago and amazed to find my memory intact ^^ The hot and sour soup is the best I’ve had, even better than some I had in China. Other dishes are all wonderful. Peking duck, garlic chives, Chinese cabbage… no wonder it’s so popular. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

It’s true. Their food here is awesome. Obviously the Peking Duck is a must. It’s pricey at $70 but a superior product. Combination chow mein comes with beef, chicken, and shrimp. Thick udon type noodles. Yum! And the snow peas with shrimp come with large, plump prawns. The whole meal is pricey. But it’s ok once in a while. Nov’24 update: Still good here though I took a start away this time. Always get the Peking duck even though it’s super pricey. It’s just good. This time we had green beans with beef which was excellent. Also had sweet and sour pork which was better than average. Chicken fried rice was delicious. Ma po tofu was good but a little on the vinegary side. I like that it’s less oily than most Chinese restaurants. Portion size was good which I’m glad because it’s expensive at approximately forty dollars per head after tax and tip included. I mean, it’s Chinese food. Plus we waited 40 minutes for the food to come; that’s not great service.
