Wow! Stellar dishes and service. Vegetable eggs rolls were best I’ve had in a long time. The back pages of the menu have the more authentic and unique dishes, for the adventurous diner… Cumin Lamb here was spectacular (spicy, in a good way!) Nice touches with tea and almond cookies. I’m glad this spot is in the neighborhood!
Also, responding to earlier comments: The place was super clean. My booth and table was wiped down in full before being seated. And the bathrooms were spotless.

Spiciest Chinese food I've ever had! And that's a GOOD thing!! I love my food with a good kick and this is the only Chinese place so far that has actually came through with the spice level when I asked for it! Really really good flavor and great spice level! 9/10! Only thing I can say is that there should've been more sauce; after mixing up the chicken I was satisfied but it would've been PERFECT if there was more sauce. I got carry out for reference.

Disappointing
Stale almond cookies, those seem to be very common.
Tomato pepper beef was chewy, tough to eat for my disabled friend with dentures, and not pleasant for me either.
Combo rice was huge, but really tasteless, the chicken, beef and shrimp were not so great.
Oh, yes, egg rolls. Typical cabbage filled, huge. Not impressed.
Tons of food, but only about two or three?! packets of soy sauce and hot mustard. That needed to have been about three times as much, especially because folks like to mix sweet and sour sauce and a little hot mustard for egg roll dipping.
It's not as good as it used to be oh, not by a long shot.
It all got returned, and Mister restaurateur does not love me nor did he appreciate commentary because, gee, he's been in business for years and years and years and nobody! Ever complained... Golly. I've only been eating and restaurants since I was 5 -- Mom was a waitress and cook; that's about 65 years worth of experience.
That only goes to support my theory that most of the American populace has no idea what food is really supposed to taste like. I have a better than just decent palette and a very good smell, taste, mouthfeel, overall food memory. How's yours?
For $33 + change I expect a whole hell of a lot more.
In a word: fehhh. So, who do You like for Chinese? DO share, please.
I may post this also on Yelp.
There you go. Have a great 2022.

I finally made it into this place after saying I would for two years! I love how this place looks on the outside, like it just popped out of a time capsule. I also love that there’s free parking in the attached lot.
When we arrived we were seated right away. As expected from a traditional Chinese restaurant, the menu is extensive. What’s unexpected is the list of tropical cocktails and selection of beers, many of them Chinese. I personally loved the fun tiki glassware for the cocktails and the Buddha-shaped bottle of my Lucky Buddha beer.
After reading the reviews, I had to get an egg roll. It was as gigantic as everyone says. I also got Hot and Sour soup, which was very tasty. The General Tao’s chicken was crispy and had a tiny bit of heat. A carafe of tea is also served to every table, which I thought was nice.
Overall, I had a good experience here. The service was quick, although not entirely cordial. The food was good, the drinks were fun, and the prices were reasonable. I can definitely see myself coming here again.

Not impressed. Was so pumped for this food, but not worth it. Potstickers weren’t even like a regular potsticker. General Tso chicken had barely any sauce on it. Nothing had flavor. At all. Just bland, soggy chicken. Starving and can’t even finish it. Wish I could get my $30 back. Only thing that was positive was fast delivery and great presentation. That saved them from a one-star review.
