We come here every month or two. We tried a bunch of new dishes this time and I now believe that this place rivals restaurants in Flushing New York after having similar dishes in flushing. We got: 1)Numbing frog - huge pieces of meat, broth is addictingly numbing. 2) large pig intestine - reminds me of mapo tofu with huge pieces of large intestines too 3) whole fish in tangy pickled chili - this came out much different than I expected but was still very good. 4) chow mein for the kids, but even the adults liked this.

Amazing fresh and authentic food. The service here is amazing. My husband and I were sat immediately and given our hot tea and waters in less than two minutes. Our meals came out fast and super fresh and hot. I love the chicken corn soup here. I had some leftover soup and the staff helped me pack it up which I thought was very kind. The food here is delicious and I will definitely be back!

If you're looking for authentic Chinese food, this is the place. A variety of dishes all very well made. Would recommend if you're looking for something more traditional than your average take out Chinese food. Everything was reasonably priced and service was quick and friendly.
