Good authentic Chinese food available here. A large number of affordable dishes. Portions are pretty large and are intended to be shared within a group. Great value.
The shrimp is pretty good. -

Overpriced bad chinese food with terrible service.
I came here with a group of friends and we were discussing what to order. We were asked three times if we were ready to order. The third time the server said "talk talk talk don't order". We haven't even had a chance to go through the entire menu. The menu is extremely disorganized. I've never seen a menu organized with the type of meat and vegetables at the end.
We ordered a soup, a beef pancake, some eggplant, and a beef. The soup was okay, not the best ingredients. The pancake was very weird. The beef had some carrot mixed into it. The eggplants were extremely oily and overcooked. The beef was dry and inconsistently marinated.
The total was around $54 for those 4 dishes. Extremely overpriced for their quality of food. -

They try to imitate an authentic Chinese cuisine but only succeed in doing so with the atmosphere. The food doesn't taste like authentic Chinese food at all, but it isn't too terrible either. Should probably just be named The Bowl

This is a rating for their all u can eat hot pot. It is great value! They also charge for sauce which is pretty annoying and ridiculous but they r relatively cheap comparing to other hotpot places in town. The meat selections are limited but they taste good.

Good affordable food, but a little bit greasy/oily. We were not able to finish everything so had a To go box and we're surprised to see all the oil in the container the next day. Would be back to try other items, could be just what we ordered.
