Customer Reviews & Ratings
I came here with my family for early dinner. They have a super late lunch special that ends at 6pm. Anyone that comes for their lunch special gets complimentary steamed rice and some soup. The sad part is that they didn't have iced lemon tea like other Hong Kong style restaurants. There was plenty of parking spots in their lot, but there is also street parking if you can't find a spot to park at. Their food quality was good, but wasn't great. Service was fast and I think because we spoke Chinese, the staff felt more comfortable with us. I enjoyed the fried fish, but i wished their fish was a little more "steamed". The meat didn't quite fall apart well compared to a steamed fish. Their shrimp with egg was quite large for an Entree. A lot of their lunch specials were under $16 a plate! The women's restroom had 2 stalls. One for single and a wheelchair accessible one. The single felt extremely small and compact that if you're a plus size woman, you'd have a hard time using it. At least that's how I felt. When we got there, the ambiance was casual, but really quiet. We wouldn't mind coming back.
I came here with my family on a Saturday. I asked my mom to modify two dishes to vegan dishes for me so I can join my family to eating lunch. They have lunch specials from 11am-6pm. My mom ordered me deep fried tofu, and buddha's delight (veggie stir fry) . I was a little upset when the waiter didn't feel like asking the staff how the food was made, but he reassured me that those dishes are not cooked in animal Products. The food was really good and enjoyed them with rice. Thank goodness I didn't feel sick afterward. Ambiance was typically noise level for an Asian restaurant, at times average and at times loud.
I came here with my parents for lunch. There was a good amount of people in line waiting so I would just come here early before the crowd on weekends. We got a booth in the corner along the wall. The chicken and the fish were delicious, perfect with sauce and not overcooked. my parents really liked the seafood tofu dish. Overall Taste and cooking were pretty good. We would come here again. I recommend coming here when you're craving a sitdown chinese restaurant. But warning that it feels like theres not many waiters available to take your order. The table next to us ended up waiting a long time before they had their order taken. The best strategy would be to take a look at the menu while waiting in line and know what you want so you can order right away once you get a table.
Excellent value for decent sized dishes. The lunch special menu offers a variety of entrees and it comes with rice and soup. My family had the sweet & sour pork chops, fried fish, and green beans. The food was fresh and piping hot. The sweet and sour pork chops had a good amount of meat so it wasn't like you get mostly bones. The green beans and fish were super crispy though I would have liked more soy sauce on the fish, maybe it was mostly absorbed by the fish. Parking is a bit on the small side but street parking is available.
Lunch special restaurant! Portions are worth the price, there could be more finesse with the end product but you can't be nitpicking too much when the restaurant is setup to be known for lunch specials. Soup and rice is surprisingly included, not many restaurants include soup now. It was lotus root and pork broth soup on the day we went, it had a good flavor of lotus root. Dinner time rice and soup is not included. We had dessert bean soup included instead. Great value for dinner items, I would say restaurant is comparable to the level of Henry's Cuisine in Alhambra.
Very good value lunch deal! The restaurant opens at 11 am, and because it is close to my work, I was able to try it on a Friday recently. After I parked (parking lot is not too big, but can street park), there were already people waiting for it to open. So I know this place has been approved by its customers. The interior is nice and the price is super good! I ordered a Kung Pao chicken lunch special, including a big bowl of rice and soup (猪骨汤)for only $11.01! The quantity is more than enough for one person, and the taste is very Hong Kong-style, which IMO is good:) Please go try, you won't be disappointed!
