A lovely Chinese restaurant located in Jersey City. I’ve been there twice, once with some work colleagues and then with my wife. I’m both of the visits, the food was great, with a generous size. We’ve had dumplings, scallion fried rice, vegetarian beans and the fried chicken – all of them were delicious. Service could be a bit better – no one was asking about our experience – but still a great place.

Overall, the food was very good. I was delighted with the portion sizes and the flavors! I went around lunch time, and it was only me and one other person dining in, but the service was lackluster. After my server took my initial order, I did not interact with her for the remainder of my dining experience. A food runner brought out my food and the host brought me my check when I was ready. She never came back over to ask if I was enjoying the food, or if I needed anything. Another thing that bothered me was being charged something different than what was reflected on the menu. I bought a beer, which was priced at $5 but was $8 when I got my bill. When I asked about the discrepancy, I was told that the menu hadn’t been updated and that’s the new price. Granted, it’s only a $3 difference, but I don’t like surprises when I get the bill and if the menu is not going to reflect your new price for something, then at the very least the server should inform patrons. I did not think the response I got was sufficient because I take menu pricing transparency seriously and I don’t think it’s fair to essentially trick people into paying more than what they agreed to. All in all, the food was delicious with sizable portions but poor service and surprises on the bill can affect the dining experience enough to not have people return. (Scallion beef with veggie spring rolls)

The interior of the restaurant was so welcoming along with the live music! We were seated right away and I was so overwhelmed with the huge selection of items. My favorite part about the menu was even though it was so overwhelming, there were pictures included to help narrow down what catches your eye.

I had a disappointing experience at this restaurant today on 9th April 2023. The food was not up to par and definitely not worth the high price. I was extremely disappointed with the quality of the dishes, which lacked flavour and taste. Specially the Chicken and Vegetable Noodles and Spring roll.

This place has a fair amount of seating, so many large tables. We tried some vegetables dumplings, steamed chicken dumplings, and scallion pancakes. The Scallion pancakes were great. I personally preferred Scallion pancakes over the Dumplings.

I recently dined at this restaurant, and while I found the food to be oily, the steamed dumplings were decent. I decided to try Bamboo shoots for the first time and was pleasantly surprised by their taste. The shrimp fried rice was definitely a standout and highly recommended. The scallion pan cake was also enjoyable. For starters, the pepper crispy chicken was a tasty choice. Overall, the restaurant offered a satisfying dining experience.

I am really disappointed with the portion sizes at this restaurant. They are extremely tiny! It’s almost like they are trying to be sneaky with their takeout food, using a round lunch box that is even smaller than the usual rectangle one, and only filling it halfway! Please keep the portion size for takeout is the same as for dining in!

A wonderful little gem we picked out for our evening. We tried a variety of dishes and enjoyed ALL of them except for the pork belly dish (not much flavor except for spice and cucumber). Their noodles, wontons in chili oil, and mongolian beef were super delicious! Very interesting menu as well with dishes of all sorts I hadn’t heard of. Beautiful beautiful beautiful atmosphere!

My family was visiting from Singapore and loved the place and food so much they made me take them back 3 times. So we went four times for dinner in just ten days. If that doesn’t tell you how good some of the dishes were, then maybe these pics will.
