Amazing food with a variety of food types per dish. Though the price is more elevated than other Chinese restaurants, it is definitely worth the price. They have maintained a great quality for the several years that they have been open.

Good old fashion Chinese food. Very friendly team at this restaurant. The waitress works there part-time, was very hospital, and provided a list of recommended restaurants in Bellaire Blvd. We brought back leftovers and were very good the next day. We thought about going back. However, we wanted to try as many restaurants as we can during our visit. There were a lot of take out during Christmas Eve, though they were one of a few restaurants opened in Diho Square, east of Ranchester Drive.

Peking ribs were good, a little too saucy. Beef with sour mustard was good. Clams and beef soup were ok

Been years since my last visit, food was good, way better than the past few times I went! The wait is about 30 mins, but we knew gonna be a bit of wait because there was a big table and 3 small tables ahead of us.

I ordered through Uber Eats and the food was horrible. The Butter Nan was not fresh, my jaw still hurts from chewing it, looks like it was made yesterday. The Goat Massala was 80% sauce and bones and just literally 2 pieces of meat, horrible, and to top it off, i don't like spicy and i said i wanted mild and it was really hot. Don't go to this place
