They All Love Our Food

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I DIDN’T KNOW DUMPLINGS COULD BE THIS GOOD!!! Since this was my first time, I let Robert, a most excellent server, fill out my order sheet. I’m sure that was a great decision, but after trying a bit of everything on our table, I think even a random guesswork of choices would be outstanding. My beer was ice cold with a frozen glass.

Photos show my order sheet, our chicken cracklin appetizer (really good with a flavor new to me), my food, and some from the rest of our party. I’ll be back often!

Really enjoyed the dumplings, the potstickers with the extra flour making that honeycomb look. I’m always in the lookout for some authentic tasting Chinese noodles and this place delivered. The soup was not super oily or anything. It’s my second time coming and I’ll be back. Prices are pretty good as well. I do Enjoy the wallpaper decoration because it definitely had the local noodle shop vibe I’ve experienced in China.

New favorite place! The food was outstanding, and the service was fast and friendly. Soup Dumplings are great and the specialty vinegar sauce is a nice touch. If you’ve never had Sichaun cuisine, get the Triple Pepper Chicken because you’re in for a fun experience! Also I like how the dining room is partitioned, so when the restaurant becomes less busy, the place still feels cozy.
