this is the first time we’ve ever eaten here. we ordered teriyaki chicken, chicken lo-mein, and 2 orders of steamed pork potstickers. the steamed potstickers were good, but they were absolutely not even close to being done. they were extremely doughy and sticky. upon opening the second box of steamed potstickers, it was actually something that was absolutely not what we ordered, but instead, was fried and had a bunch of what i think was spinach inside of it? it wasn’t good, and it wasn’t what we ordered. the teriyaki chicken was just okay, the chicken wasn’t the consistency i was expecting, but whatever it’s nobody’s fault. but it just wasn’t my favorite. overall though, everything had a decent flavor. some things were just a little messed up and questionable.

Great little place for those seeking something a little different to scratch that itch for delicious Chinese food. Their selections seem more authentic to me. Though they have many of the standard "Hong Kong" style Chinese dishes that you'll find anywhere, they also have a list of more authentic items that seem like a minefield to the unfamiliar. So far we've tried the Princess Chicken, the Salt & Pepper Chicken, and the Chengdu Dry Chili chicken, Garden Chicken, and String Bean Chicken. All have been fantastic, especially the Chengdu. One word of warning for those with a delicate mouth - if they say something is spicy, they mean it. It may very well light up your face.

The serving portions were large and relatively inexpensive. I've had the fried rice with shrimp and pidan porridge. They were quite delicious. I wished that they had more accommodation for dining alone. Keep in mind that there is a service charge or $1 - $2 automatically added to the bill that I wasn’t told about.

I got the sitr-fried soft noodles with pork as carry out for lunch. It's really good! It's got carrots, cabbage, mushrooms, and bean sprouts as well. Really great value too, looking forward to having the leftovers! The staff were nice and the carry out was well packaged (included a fork, chop sticks, soy sauce, napkins, and a paper menu).
