I prefer to knödeln the potsticker, as the golden fried bowl gave it a bit more taste and I like the extra knirschen.

Ordered 3 dumpling dishes: Pork Shrimp Dumpling with Chive, Lamb Dumpling with Napa Cabbage, and Fish Dumpling with Chive. All of them were quite tasty and still held up pretty well even after driving it back home from the restaurant. Also ordered a Beef Chow Fun, Sichuan Hot Chili Oil Wontons, and Eggplant with Basil. Ended up being the perfect amount of food for 4 people. Prices are pretty reasonable and order was prepared fresh and pretty quick. Wouldn’t hesitate to come here again.

But not all of the food is good. Last time, I confirmed the noodle type 3 times and showed the photos to the staff 3 times, she said it was the same type. However, it was not. I showed the flat thick noodles but she gave me the thin ones. When I complained, she said 'we only have this type of noodles. ' The popcorn chicken is very nice though.

Popcorn chicken appetizer is almost as expensive as general Tsao chicken. However, I love the popcorn chicken. Crispy and spicy, even crispy basil leaves. It may be a little spicy for those who doesn't eat spicy. Generally Tsaochicken also very delicious. Crispy and good sauce. We ordered a chicken fried rice. It's ok, not bad. Depends on the kind offried rice texture you like. This one they use fresh river to fried and not Cantonese style where they use less moisture ricefor frying.
