Description
This restaurant captivates patrons with its diverse offerings of traditional Chinese cuisine, particularly notable dishes like chili pepper shrimp and twice-cooked pork, praised for their unique flavors and excellent preparation.

While the pricing can be perceived as high, the combination of flavorful dishes and a pleasant atmosphere makes it a worthwhile visit for food enthusiasts. For those looking to explore authentic Chinese flavors in a charming setting, this spot is a must-try.

The food was fantastic, with plenty of options to accommodate various dietary needs and preferences! My friend and I started with the crab Rangoon, which was a generous portion and exactly what we were hoping for. I ordered the braised chicken with chili oil, and it was bursting with flavor. My friend tried it too and thought it was delightful, though he noted that the numbing spiciness might not be suitable for everyone. He went with the black mushroom chicken noodles, which were also very tasty. Since it was lunchtime, we experienced no wait time and were seated and served promptly. We will definitely return soon!
Ate here last week. Saturday evening. It once was a favorite Asian restaurant in a Blacksburg, but I had not been to it for several years. Seated quickly. Waitress very slow to take our order despite restaurant not having many people in it. After we eventually received our order she never returned to refill drinks, or ask how the food was until sge brought our check, and she did that without checking on us first. Horrible service. Food prices are significantly higher, which is true most places, but more so here than other places. Portion sizes are significantly less. Very small bowl of rice, and no offer of refills. Taste of food was good, but not as good as it was in the past. Three star on taste. I doubt I will return. Sad to see what once was excellent Chinese food deteriorate to very mediocre.
Please do not go to this restaurant. The service is horrible. Absolutely nobody else in the restaurant, we were the only table with 2 servers on duty. Neither knew anything about any of the dishes. Neither knew what vegetables or sauces were even cooked in the dishes. Nobody asked how the food was or refilled the drinks. Worst service I’ve ever experienced ! Restaurants complain good help is hard to find but in this case the owner clearly doesn’t train or educate the staff on the menu or how to treat the customer. Toilets were disgusting, floors looked they hadn’t been cleaned in weeks. Seats are torn A Run down disaster !! Too many Asian restaurants in Blacksburg that are far better than this shambles
