I wanted to put a review together for this restaurant because I’ve been here several times and the last one was carryout and I didn’t want to judge by carryout. We went here tonight and got the potsticker, cauliflower fried rice (not rice), moo goo gai pan, sesame chicken (not on the menu) and the five pepper chicken which I think was the best. This restaurant seems like a very upscale Chinese restaurant, not your typical run of the mill. Very nice ambiance, bar, drinks and everything had a spectacular dark theme. Everyone from the hostess to the waitress did an excellent job. Now for the food, everything we had was excellent! Definitely recommend the cauliflower fried rice and the five pepper chicken. Those were our favorites but everything was excellent. We will definitely be back!

I ate here and was very impressed. Everything was excellent. I had the walnut shrimp a Maui salad and the short ribs all very good.

We actually found this place due to a tragic situation. I took my feline to the vet across the street during the COVID-19 shutdown. We were famished and did a random search and found this gem. We have been going back ever since. Everyone who works here is immensely friendly. This is one the most delightful Chinese Restaurant that I’ve found in the area. I really love their Spicy Hawaiian Sweet & Sour Shrimp. Try it, you won’t be disappointed (it’s not really that spicy and you can ask for extra spice on the side).

I really like this place. I was looking at several Chinese restaurants in Novi that offered vegetarian options, and this one stood out to me with their “from the garden” section on their menu. It was nice to see quite a few full entree options and not just sides.

There is something SO CHARMING about the owner. I didn’t interact with her directly, but witnessed her interact with 10+ customers. She was funny, approachable, communicated wait time well and was extremely ENGAGED with her staff, which is hard to find.

Delicious food. Good menu variety. Nice atmosphere . Attentive service. What more can you ask for? It’s not fast food , carryout, cheap. But if you want a nice dine-in experience with well prepared Chinese food, This is a wonderful place to eat.

Very clean restaurant. Food was served hot and full of flavor. Service was wonderful. This is a tad more expensive then anticipated. But I will come again. The quality is great so the price matches up.

We have been eating at this restaurant for 10 years or more. And you keeps going up in price. They just continued the noodles that you put in your soup or in dip and plum sauce along time ago. No egg foo yong off the menu a while back now you can’t even get a fortune cookie is getting ridiculous. Very disappointed won’t be back.

Best Chinese Food I’ve had in years! Hands down the Mongolian Beef is the best item on their menu! Highly recommend! I live out of state and when I come to Michigan for work or to see family, this place is a must-visit!
