My group ordered several dishes, including Mala Fried Chicken, Brisket Fried Rice, Cantonese Scramble, Chicken and Waffles, and General Tso's Chicken. The Mala Fried Chicken was excellent and reminded me of the crispy fried chicken from a traditional Sichuan restaurant. The Brisket Fried Rice was also a hit and enjoyed by everyone in our group. While the General Tso's Chicken wasn’t anything extraordinary, it was still decent. The stars of the meal were definitely the Chicken and Waffles and the Cantonese Scramble. The waffles were bubble waffles, reminiscent of what you’d find in a Hong Kong dessert shop, and they were simply amazing. Crispy on the outside with a soft interior, they paired perfectly with the fried chicken for a delightful sweet-and-savory contrast. I was genuinely surprised by how much I loved the Cantonese Scramble. Interestingly, my Cantonese friends didn’t even know what it was! The eggs were scrambled beautifully, and when combined with rice and the provided chili sauce, it created a fantastic sensory experience. I’ll definitely need to order that again if I come back!

We waited at the front for a solid 5 minutes before I went searching through the restaurant to try to find someone to seat us. Once we sat down, we had to wait another 5 minutes for menus. To be honest, if I wasn’t starving.. I would have left.After taking a look around, we noticed there were only 2 servers and lots of full tables.The service honestly is awful. Luckily, the restaurant got slower but unfortunately, the service never improved.But the food is amazing! The general Tso’s chicken is amazing. Perfect crunch and spice. The brisket fried rice was also spectacular. We also really enjoyed the pork and shrimp dim sum. Shoutout to the chefs!Hopefully some effort is made to greet guests upon arrival and be more attentive to tables while they were eating. We were a little put off that we had to ask for a second round of drinks, water and utensils.
