Everything here was on point! When you first walk in they have all their fresh live seafood on display, then the dining room is elegant and inviting. The service was prompt and they were friendly and welcoming. We ordered steamed oysters for and fried dumplings for an appetizer. The oysters were some of the biggest I’ve ever had, but the were steamed to perfection and seasoned with a bit of soy sauce along with chopped herbs on top, perfect combination. The dumplings were on point as well for my main course I had shrimp stir fry, it was a super simple dish but done well. I want to come back and try some of the more exotic dishes they offer

Went in here for a random dinner night strolling through Chinatown. and definitely enjoyed it. It was quite busy but we were seated in about 20-30mins. Waiters were pleasant and quick with service. Food also arrived super fast. I will come here again. Great spot.

One of our favorite places in Chinatown, more authentic as opposed to the takeout. Perfect for groups, service always good, the food, the space, come with a group of at least 5 people, get a round table perfect for ordering family style is always the best so you can have my dishes at once, all the classics always so good.

Came here for dinner while spending time in Chinatown. It’s a Cantonese style restaurant focused on seafood, but also serve all the traditional dishes. As soon as you walk in, you’ll see several types of fresh seafood waiting to be prepared. There’s only about 8 tables inside, but was seated within 10 minutes. Service was extremely prompt. Waiter came by immediately upon sitting down to take the drink and appetizers order. Throughout the meal, he constantly stopped by to check on the meal and refill the drinks.

Solid place for Chinese Food in Philadelphia’s Chinatown. We had the lobster with sticky rice and seafood in a bird’s nest and both were very good. We were disappointed in the snail dish only because they were a lot of work to fish out and eat.

We ordered the lobster with sticky rice and it was delicious! I would definitely come back. The salt pepper shrimp was the best … Just the right amount of saltiness and really delicious. Their seafood is super fresh here. The chef is really good at what he does. We also had the shrimp fried rice which was good and typical. They gave us complimentary mung bean dessert with tapioca pearl. Service was quick. They are no fuss here. Typical Chinese restaurant…. order quickly, get your food quickly and get out. I ordered a margarita in a Chinese restaurant and to my surprise, it was delicious and for the price it was a steal!

Went there for lunch for the 1st time. Variety of seafood options and other meat dishes. I order my usual favorite that I get from other places. This place was nicely fried salted shrimps without the shell. It can use more salt I ask waiter to bring me oil hot pepper and he also got slice green pepper in soy sauce. It was nice clean place. Staffs are helpful.
