Good food quality, meat is great. Cash only

I have been looking for the eggs noodles soup with duck for my mom and this one hit the spot. She liked it and said she would be back. In general, it looked pretty much like every other Chinese restaurant that has been around 20+ years. It’s all about practicality and you do not come here for the ambience or hanging out. You come to eat and then leave. The menu range between $15-$18 and a portion is large. They give you a lot of rice whether it be plain rice or fried rice. We ordered three dishes and I think the egg noodles with duck was the best. What was interesting to me was that they were about six people who worked there all the which have to be at least 60 to 70 years old men, which I found kind of strange (Saturday lunch as of Jan 2026). While my rating is not very high, I would come back for that noodle soup with my mom.

This is my go to place when I want to eat something warm. In my opinion their noodle soup is unique to others because theirs are always hot (temperature wise). This seems to an ignorable factor but for some reason they just always do it better. In this picture I posted is the roasted duck rice sticks soup. The portion of the duck is generous and delicious. The soup and the rice sticks are light but flavorful. This is perhaps the best noodle soup I enjoy among all kinds.

Good place for catering! Cash only!

One of the best Chinese BBQ spots in the Southbay and their aren't many. Good comforting good and the atmosphere and decor is the same as any Chinese BBQ place you would ever visit. Nothing fancy here, but we come for the food and not an art gallery. Don't ever forget the plum sauce with your roast duck or you'll be missing out. Sauces and napkins are self serve. Always hits the spot and fulfills my cravings.

Great bbq duck place.

I had the pork offal noodle soup here. Nothing like hk but there’s not many restaurants here that serve this. They gave decent portions and I was pleasantly surprised.

One of the best hole in the wall Chinese joint. Food is absolutely MSG delicious. If you want to eat healthy, I recommend you go elsewhere. But if you're up for good old-fashioned quick Chinese food, come here. Roast duck is good. Peking spare ribs is bomb, but it is recommended to eat it at the spot (instead of takeout) while it's hot and crispy. House fried rice...the glistening of the dish will call your name. Best of all, they have this sauteed spicy chili paste condiment that just compliments every bite. Downfall. Joint is small. Cash only; however, they do have an ATM. Service is a hit or miss, but if you speak their language, probably better than usual. Not going to lie. Enjoy.

Extensive and diverse menu spanning from noodle soup, fried rice, porridge, chow mein, stir fry and marinated meat. Generous portion and teasonabe price

Bokchoy from the house special noodles had mold, please fix this issue for future reference

Hi, I just received the roast duck, but I noticed that it’s mostly bones, organs, and large blood vessels. Is this how it’s usually prepared?

Roast duck (half) costs US 16.5 (before tax) reasonably priced it tastes good staff here could speak cantonese, Vietnamese

Seafood chow mein had two shrimps:( and duck didn’t have meat!! For the price I expected better food.

Cha siu is a 0. It was dry, aged, and just sad to chew on. The pigs already died and they died for nothing. Roast duck was pretty good. Clams were great. Disclaimer: Pictures were taken after the meal

They did not clean the sand out of the oysters and a mouthful of fine sand is no fun. Meat was cold. Rice was ok. Veg was ok.

I went back to this place just to reminisce old memories. I grew up coming to this place for they're bbq pork and roast duck. The quality wasn't great. The duck was dry and flavorless. The saddest part was the skin. It was not crispy at all. The barbecue pork was not flavorless and was not smoky. Both dishes added up to $70. It was a complete disappointment, and it tarnished my childhood memories.

Food is not authentic. Cash only and has an ATM. Withdraw use my debit, after 2 days, got a fraud alert someone trying to withdraw money in Utah. Previously only withdraw money using bank's ATM. It is a TRAP.
