The food is pretty good and fresh. The service is fast. They do lack a little spice. The hot and sour soup lacked some spice and flavor, but it was ok. The hunan dishes were good but again lacked some spice. Pretty tasty though and this was a nice place for a quick meal at descent prices. Services was good and the menu very simple. Restaurant was nice and clean with a bright and open atmosphere. Nice place for a group or an informal meal.

Simply perfect. I'm fairly positive the dumplings were made from scratch when I ordered them. Looked and tasted like it, and took the appropriate amount of time. I had them add a few things to the Orange Chicken, and it was delightful. I will definitely be back. This place is a gem hidden in the old medical district. Stop by and enjoy, just remember they close between lunch and dinner.

Kung pao beef. Garlic eggplant. Crab puff. Spring rolls. Everything is fine. Fresh. Good flavors. Not fancy but good. I like the big chunks of vegetables and big pieces of hot chili peppers.! Awesome with fried rice. But they offer brown rice on every dish ...your choice (extra fee). The delivery is all I have done this year and they are very nice. Sometimes the food is not hot enough and I just heat it up but the service is fast!

The Won Ton soup was amazing but was luke warm. The main dish was steaming hot and served with the best egg roll I've ever had. Ask for Jasmine Tea...it's wonderful!
