Came on Sunday for dimsum. It was a combination of cart and menu ordering. Food was wonderful and authentic! Don tot were flaky. Tripe was savory. Soup dumplings were gingery and tender. We will definitely be back to also try their regular menu.

This place was right under our noses on Kildare Farm Road, but we kept zipping by, thinking it was just another run-of-the-mill takeout joint.

We ordered delivery from this place in the past. The food is awesome— especially loved the chili oil dumplings and the tea smoked duck! It’s also a delight to eat in the restaurant. Great portions and selection of dim-sum and entrees. Also quite reasonable prices for this area!

This is our second visit. The foods that we have tried are very good. They have a very extensive menu and not willing very willing to make any changes. This visit we had crispy tofu, mixed vegetables with tofu, and pad Thai with vegetables. The crispy tofu came with nothing but rice. Should definitely come with a sauce or something on the side. I had the mixed vegetables with tofu. It was very good. My son got the pad Thai and it was good once it arrived. His food was about 10 minutes after ours. Our waitress did not tell us there was a delay. We had to flag her down and ask where his food was. The wait staff were not voluntarily helpful. If you asked directly for something they would comply, if they came to the table. They did not offer anything. Food is good, service is ok. We tried their bubble tea and this is NOT good! The gelatin balls were an extremely firm texture like they were stale or something. Private parking lot for this restaurant.

As First time customer, I think the food overall was good. Very tasty, lots of items on the menu. Friendly staffs, fast service. Just a few dish that we don’t think they used the right/real ingredient. Like we ordered lamb dish, but we think they used beef instead of lamb (last pic square dish), beef noodle soup (second pic) is not the right type of noodles. It supposed to be thick undo noodles. But other than that everything was good.

The reviews for this place are really mixed, either 5 star or 1 star, and I fall firmly in the middle. I think if you order takeout you’re probably in the 1 star camp, but if you dine in then you’re probably in the 5 star camp. We ordered takeout. The restaurant inside looks really nice and is probably a cute date night. Our takeout order was ready on time and nice and hot by the time we got home. The egg rolls were comically small tiny baby egg rolls, which was foreshadowing because the portions for the combos were also comically small. If you’re used to typical American Chinese takeout in the area you’re getting about half the portion for the same cost. The taste has real “mall food court” kind of vibes. We were disappointed to find that they didn’t include any fortune cookies in the bag. Overall, wouldn’t come back, but not the worst experience I’ve ever had.

Service is on point! The food is delicious but make sure you understand the difference in the regional flavors before you order. They do have Americanized chinese food… but they also offer very traditional delicious foods too! And, they have soup dumplings which are to die for!

Beautiful authentic Chinese food with sushi. Chinese hot pot was absolutely delicious. String beans with perfect texture. Soup pork dim sum perfect. This was one of the best Chinese restaurants experience we have had in a long time since Szechuan Chinese closed down in Cary.

Came here for the soup dumplings, which were delicious, but I ended up ordering a pork platter, and my daughter ordered the duck, both were very good. Definitely worth the drive from Durham.

Now you know the food is not that great when you’re hungry and it still taste bad. I ordered takeout tho and from the looks of things that isn’t the best option. Either way I’ll pass on lunch special but I might go back for dinner one day…who knows.
