Super friendly and inviting staff. Small out door seating area, yet perfect on a summer day or evening. Food is Amazing! Stop in for lite lunch or filling dinner. We had the Wings, dumplings and Generals. Great little spot, you won’t regret.
Pretty ok and mostly delicious. Wonton noodles soup and spicy chickens are good. Restaurant’s decorations are great and nice. Restroom is clean but floors are very sticky and dirty. When I step by step. I heard that sticky sound of my shoes. If you like a drink beer All flavors are delicious but if you’re not drinking beers might be salty and spicy. So if you’re over 21 drink beer with this restaurant foods together. My youngest baby loves wonton soup. It’s way hot when they served so becareful your tongue and hands. Also if you want to order food you must line up front desk and paid tip first before you got a food. Kinda awkward.
Speaking strictly on their pizza week for mapo tofu for $3, it’s not a normal on their menu, so I would definitely come back to try their hand pulled noodles.
Just from my only experience though, the pizza was not great. But the flavors of the tofu I could tell it would be. Sat at the bar and was surprised to see “cat liquor”, a Chinese matou liquor special. Not many know about it so I could tell this place is legit.
I watched the cooks prep for dinner, and all the ingredients looked fresh. They were efficient and prepped a lot pretty quickly. I ALMOST ordered more food than just the pizza, but I was on a mission that day. Would definitely come back to try their menu, just not their pizza in the future 😅.
Plenty of street parking outside. Nice bathrooms. Recommend y’all to give it a shot.
Solid inner SE counter service Chinese. This is one of my favorite quick and good food places close in- it’s almost always easy to get in and served without much of a wait, and it’s a really easy way to get great versions of tasty dumplings and other favs. Portions are pretty large- I almost always feel like I have some left over when I come here.
The flavors were very new and fun. The wontons were the best dish and super tasty. The sesame ckn was nice, very sticky and a depth of flavor. The Dan Dan noodles were hot but hard to stop eating bc of the sweet and citrus balancing the heat.
The corn was like rough tempura corn kernals but became a fun topping for all the dishes. Totally recommend.
The fries were a bit too hot but had a nice unique flavor.
Maybe it's because I've gotten used to nicer staff in the towns outside of PDX, but this was a familiar nonchalant IDGAF air that made them neither rude nor welcoming. Food was great.
Stopped off for pizza week and had the get sone noodles while we’re were there (a must if you visit) pizza had fried tofu from across the street at Ota. The crust was interesting, kind of cracker like but soft in the middle (maybe some rice flour?) but a really good slice. Noodles speak for themselves.
Definitely one of my favorite dining experiences in Portland.
Our friend brought us here, and they told us they found out about the place through yet another recommendation about a particular dish - the Scheczuan Chicken. I love spicy food, but this one ends the chili wars. This dish takes pride in the chillies that came all the way from the province of Scheczuan in China, so you can actually taste the authenticity. It's dry, flavorful, somewhat flavorful and spicy, BUT IT'S JUST THE EXPERIENCE THAT GIVES YOU LIFE. No kidding. Aaaah I'm craving for it as I write this review!
The place is also cozy and chic, giving you that oriental and modern culinary experience. Staff were also friendly, warm, and provided topnotch customer service.
Food is AMAZING here. I do not understand how this place only has 4 stars. Best dumplings I have had in Portland, way way better than some of those Insta famous spots. Noodles were also spot on, steaming hot and so flavorful. Foodie paradise ✨
Food was amazing. The pork looked dry and tough at a glance but wait till you try them! Moist, flavorful and comes right off the bone. Noodle was a bit on the salty side for my liking but it complimented everything else pretty well. Order everything, try everything. Very clean and nice restroom.
We dined here on the 4th of July, 2020 using their outdoor patio set-up which was very nice as the weather was perfect and the sun was out. Overall, the staff was nice, the prices very fair, and the dish flavors were great!
My only complaint is that the dishes, especially the chicken, were not very warm. This was a bit disappointing but we did enjoy our overall experience and recommend trying this restaurant for sure!
This place also has a great menu with many options, and the drink selection is also very nice. The Pinot Gris I got was absolutely fantastic, if you like white wine, get a glass!
