Customer Reviews
We went here looking for some good Chinese food, and ended up with flavorless food, and a high price for flavor. For us to eat it cost $52 so we expected at least decent food. However the dumpling taste and feel like mush. The rice is flavorless, and the chicken even worse. It’s hard, half cold and half hot, it’s like it’s been microwaved. The drinks had a bad after taste and after working in a kitchen, it’s because they aren’t changing the spouts to their drinks. There was no seasoning and we had to douse it in pepper. The only redeeming quality was the staff. They were funny, nice, and put forth effort to make sure we were comfortable. The restaurant has character is one way to put it. You can see where it was leaking from the roof. I don’t care about the look of a restaurant, but the qu
The old building has character but is better on the outside than inside. The ceiling had leak marks and tbe vents were filthy. The booths were very old and decapitated. When I sat down the seat cushion was wonky so I adjusted myself and when I sat back down it felt like the bottom fell out. The staff was very pleasant and professional. I had high hopes after reading reviews but the food was only mediocre to us. Brought take out home for our kids and they didn't like it either. The egg roll was very different, and had a pungent taste, and didn't taste cabbage. The egg drop soup was okay, but a little on the bland side- just thick broth and egg, nothing else.

I don’t have any pictures for you, and you don’t need them. It’s really kind of sad that with such a prominent location in the city, that this place couldn’t do better. The space is rather awkwardly arranged. You walk in and queue up to the right to place your order. Then backtrack to the cramped dining area. The booths are really tired, ours was so old, the upholstery has worn off the seats. If you look up you’ll see four overworked ceiling fans and the disgusting stains on the drop ceiling tiles. I didn’t get to see the restrooms because they keep them locked. The room is accented by a giant monolithic stainless steel freezer that belongs in the back, not in the dining area. While the price of the food was reasonable, it was certainly nothing good. The egg rolls appeared to be old, an
Went there with my boyfriend, lady at the front is really kind, service was fast and food was delicious.
