Reviews

We decided to have lunch there today and the food was exceptional. All came in such generous portions at a reasonable price. Highly recommended.
Lilian G.
The chili fried chicken is heavenly. The Sichuan peppers bring a beautiful, floral aroma and heat to the fresh, crispy, juicy popcorn-style chicken.
Shivani R.
Went there with my friend for dinner, the food was really flavorful and good. And plus the staff is really friendly, loved his vibe. Would recommend!
Neema G.
This place was so good! We got a bunch of different dishes and I thought we’d gotten too much but we ended up finishing pretty much everything!
Kay Q.
Awesome place to eat! Food was absolutely delicious and the service was amazing. They were very kind and even gave us some complementary dishes.
Zain D.
Really enjoyed the fried rice. The texture was great, with fluffy rice, well-seasoned eggs, and a nice balance of flavors. Portions were generous.
