We had the Mongolian beef, honey sesame chicken, some lo han noodle dish, calamari, and lettuce wraps. Overall, we were disappointed. The Mongolian beef and calamari didn't form enough of a crust when they fried, so they had this unappealing sogginess. It kind of had a clumpy, doughy texture. The Mongolian beef sauce also had no thickening agent, so it had the thickness of warm soy sauce, which resulted in weak flavour as it couldn't stick to the beef. The honey sesame chicken had good flavour, but not a lot of dimension to it as it was just the entirety of the dish was pieces of breaded chicken and sauce. The lettuce wraps' filling actually had excellent flavour, but even here there was disappointment in the lettuce they provided. They basically just gave us a whole wedge of lettuce, including the wilted dark green exterior and the heart of the lettuce which were yellow, curly, and too small to be usable as a vessel/wrap. The noodle dish was most disappointing. The sauce was weakest of all and the vegetables didn't really cook enough to caramelize or blend flavours. We each tried a few bites and ended up throwing it out. None of the dishes came with rice, which I thought was super weird and would've appreciated knowing ahead of time. It wasn't that big of a deal to cook some at home, but still another mark against the place.

This was our first time here, and we loved the food! I played it safe and ordered the empress chowmein, but my wife wanted to try out the walnut shrimp and garlic noodles on the side, and that was the best decision ever! The food was fresh and extremely tasty, the prices were very reasonable, and the service was prompt, polite and helpful. Definitely recommend trying this place out if you’re in the area!

I've heard for years how great this place was, how awesome the food was. It's not great, looks better than it tastes. We were a party of 5. We made reservations. We arrived and waited for 30-minutes. Walk-ins of two went before us. I get it, two is easier to sit than 5. We were eventually seated by the kitchen. We were finally greeted 5-minutes after being seated. We ordered cocktails, which were delivered 10-minutes later. We finally got to order 5-minutes later. The staff was rushing around like madmen, so explanations or apologies for delayed service were absent. Labor shortage, definitely not.... We saw plenty of staff. Food was delivered as the dishes were ready, all food delivered 5-minutes after the first dish was placed on the table. The food presentation was very good and the food looked great! The taste, especially the sauces, lacked balance and were obviously rushed. The sweet and sour pork was excellent, the pork riblets almost unedible, the sauce was overpowering and tart. The noodle dish was soggy and lacked punch. We had 4-other dishes. All in all, fair. $251.00 later, I'll be looking elsewhere for Chinese food ) Asian cuisine.
