THOUGHTS: FOOD TASTE, QUALITY, PROPORTION, FRESHNESS, REASONABLE PRICE & AUTHENTICITY HANDS-DOWN BRAVO SOLID FIVE STARS AND SURELY I WILL COME BACK TO TRY OTHERS, THEIR BEEF RICE NOODLES WAS SO GREAT THE SOUP IS SO RICH, THE MEAT IS SO TENDER, AND THEIR NOODLES WERE PERFECTLY COOKED NOT SAGGY AND NOT THAT HARD, ALSO THEIR CHICKEN & SHRIMP STEAM DUMPLINGS IS TO DIE FOR VERY CHEAP FOR THAT QUANTITY AND QUALITY SUPER GOOD 100% RECOMMENDED A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED WITH THE DRINK BECAUSE I HAVEN'T SEEN "WITH HONEY" AND UNFORTUNATELY I DONT LIKE THE TASTE OF HONEY ALSO IT TASTE A LITTLE HERBALLY TO ME BECAUSE OF THE JASMINE FLOWER WITH IT NEXT TIME I WILL TRY THEIR HOUSE BLEND DRINKS AND DESSERTS.

BECAUSE OF THEIR GREAT FOOD I REALLY DON'T CARE ABOUT THE AMBIENCE OF THE RESTAURANT

AGAIN 100%...

Our recent dining experience was disheartening, to say the least. Every aspect of our visit fell below acceptable standards, leaving much to be desired.

The state of cleanliness within the establishment was appalling. Persistent flies, treating the premises as their own, marred our experience by incessantly hovering around our beverages, our faces, and most distressingly, our meals.

The culinary offerings, despite their lofty prices, failed to impress. Far from exceptional, the quality of the fare was decidedly average, if not outright lackluster. It was a stark reminder of the dissonance between cost and quality.

Service, too, left much to be desired. Rather than attending to the needs of patrons, staff members appeared preoccupied with their own meals, demonstrating a concerning lack of attentiveness. Moreover, the intrusive presence of the delivery person, engrossed in the cacophony of TikTok videos, further detracted from the dining atmosphere.

Speaking of ambiance, it was far from conducive to an enjoyable meal. The incessant chatter of the host, engaged in a conversation of unnecessarily elevated volume on his mobile device, permeated the dining area, creating an unwelcome distraction.

In summary, our experience was deeply unsatisfactory. I cannot, in good conscience, recommend this...

We ordered their hot & sour soup (they bring a large bowl enough for about 6 small bowls) it was very delicious 🤤. We tried their beef noodles which was good (we chose spicy 🌶️ so they added chili oil. I found the chili oil flavour to be unpleasant. I didn’t find it too spicy but felt an itch in my throat which was weird and uncomfortable) I recommend ordering without spicy flavour 🌶️ and asking them to give you some outside. Their boiled spinach is great also (we chose garlic 🧄 to be added) The stir-fried dumplings were tasty. Their service was good. I suggest making a reservation since it can get crowded during dinner time. We arrived at 10 p.m. and were informed that several tables were reserved. They give you complementary Chinese tea 🫖 when you are seated which was wonderful. It is very tasty and I will come again. Their prices are good 👍

We went there again and tried their hot & sour soup with beef strips. We were surprised to find that they added spam & cow stomach instead of actual beef strips like the photo in the menu show. I suggest sticking to ordering the...
