Our friend selected this restaurant for it’s gluten-free options. But due to her celiac disease, she couldn’t have a lot of the items. The gluten-free dishes still utilized chicken bouillon which has gluten in it.

Went there for dinner on a Thursday night at around 6pm with a group of friends. When we walked in the manager greeted us and was very welcoming. Since it was early it wasn’t too busy so we were seated right away. The interior is very new with modern design and the vibe was very relaxed. There were a lot of families out to dinner with their kids. Our server Anthony was very accommodating, friendly and attentive. We ordered the XLB, short rib dan mien, dungeness crab fried rice and the 3 cup chicken dish which came with a side of rice. Since this place is a more modern and elevated approach to Chinese food I will say that the servings were smaller and more expensive then the Chinese food I am used to but I feel like it makes up for it with the service and the more careful approach they have to preparing the food. That said my favorite dish was the crab fried rice. It was delicious with many pieces of real crab in it. The dan mien was a little sweet for my taste and the XLB was good, tasted very much like crab since we got the pork and crab. Something that I would point out for improvement would be that the XLB was not really hot when it was served to us, but other than that I had a very good experience at this location. I would definitely come again!

I know about Dan from the one in Playa Vista, I think I like both but prefer this branch better. In terms of the restaurant setting, this one is very spacious, clean and well-lit (not too bright nor dark). Customer service was top-notch, very polite and knowledgeable about the menu. I much prefer that the waiters/waitresses know if there are onions on any given dish, and this branch didn’t disappoint. Thank you for training your employees well. In terms of pricing, I thought they did price their dishes fairly, so cheers to that!

It is difficult to tell this place is a worth to try Chinese restaurant in the Great LA area. If you are into DingTaiFu style Taiwaness dishes it probably will suit you. We went on a Thursday Lunch hour after the Christmas holiday and it is little chaotic with only two or three staffs running around serving all tables. It took us more then fourth minutes to get our fried rice.

This place is nice overall, but not excellent. First of all, there is no beer in this restaurant. Second, they were out of jasmine tea during our visit. Third, the cup with another tea was dirty on the outside. Lastly, oolong tea at this location tasted weird, very different from the oolong tea we are accustomed to. Since the place opened recently, their interior is very stylish and modern. They have nice take-out packages, also their dining area and entrance are separated. Food-wise this place is okay, but not the best. Shrimp da mein was delicious, the best dish here. The noodles were very well prepared. Shrimp/chicken soup dumplings were quite good, but the meat had some weird spice. Short rib fried rice was very good. Pork/shrimp crispy dumplings were served in an interesting way, but tasted worse than steamed dumplings. Chicken noodle soup was plain and could use some spices and salt. Oxtail soup was fine, but soups in general are mediocre here. The ingredients were all fresh. Overall, we have a good experience here. The manager provided some complimentary appetizers during our visit, which is a great touch for a newer restaurant. The waitress was friendly and attentive, came to our table several times.

This place is amazing! I came here on a weekday, by myself for the first time, I’m young and have never tried solo dining and I was very nervous about it. The host and the server were both incredible though. It’s been a couple weeks since I ate here so I don’t remember their names sadly. They were both young, 18-21 I’m guessing and both girls. The server complimented my overalls. I informed her that I have dietary restrictions and she made sure to ask if the vegetables were okay in the plates that I got. And she made sure that the cooks wouldn’t add the ingredients I couldn’t eat. I really appreciated that since it could make me really sick if I ate certain veggies!

Surprisingly good! Cucumber salad was nice, the beef roll was excellent, and the short rib noodles were great with very tender flavorful beef bits. I wish the beef rolls were served a little smaller so they fit in my mouth, but I had a great time for lunch service.
