Good food and ample portions- only done take out, but this is a place where you can count on consistently providing good service and not a long wait.

Sesame Chicken (lunch special) - This was a 4.5 out of 5. The sesame chicken was delicious and had large chunks of chicken. The crab rangoon was perfect - sweet and crunchy! For a lunch special, this was such a good deal and the price is great. The waiter was quick and ambiance was average. If you're looking for a good lunch spot for Chinese food that has great deals, this is the place for you!

Excellent - everything. I loved the spicy pork belly buns, the salt and pepper shrimp and the bokchoy.

Very quiet, we went mid afternoon right after lunch rush but before dinner! Our server was wonderful! So kind and knowledgeable. Suggestions were made and tried! Food was delicious, we tried a variety of things. Soup dumpling were perfect! Bok choy well seasoned! General Tso excellent in the spice department. Peking duck buns Mmmmm! The inside of the restaurant is a bit dated but just means it's a well established location!!!

How how HOW have I never eaten here before? It's definitely tucked away in a random plaza on Congress street but my god is it worth the trip. The food is definitely legit Chinese food and not the over fried over sauced American-Chinese. If you go you HAVE to get an assortment of dim sum dumplings. The best are the soup dumplings- I could eat 10 orders. The service is great and I can't wait to come back and try the chow fung and chicken noddle soup!
