    L7. Orange Chicken honey walnut shrimp, CN42. Mapo Tofu In Spicy Sauce, taro buns, cheong fun, eggplant
    Joellen C.

    WOW . I'm shocked. Despite the low reviews, this spot actually satiated my "dirty authentic" Chinese food craving. BEST to LEAST BEST: 1) shrimp cheong fun $9.95 - SO delicious. The wrapper was a bit thicker but extremely soft and tender in its chewiness. Fresh shrimp. Four pieces was generous. Glad they accompanied it with the sweet savory soy sauce instead of just salty soy sauce. 2) mapo tofu ~$16 - this was more of the savory umami soy sauce light spice sauce as opposed to the chili oil sauce. This sauce was so addicting as it had that umami msg kick to it. 3) taro buns ~$6 - gave 4 pieces. Slightly more bun to filling ratio but the flavored taro buns were still deliciously starchy bread bland like. The inner filling felt like taro and not too artificial line which was good. 4) orange chicken ~$16 - mainly because of the savory umami orange chicken sauce... this dish was addicting to eat. However if you really analyzed it, the breading was kinda thicker and hard, not crispy and the chicken meat was very thin chewy and not juicy at all. 5) honey walnut shrimp - the fry in the shrimp was more of a baked breading as opposed to a golden crispy fry. The mayo dressing was alright. Not very well balanced. They added soggy wontons which was kind of nice addition to the regular candied pecans but they were just ok. It's still honey walnut shrimp and I still kinda enjoyed it. 6) the eggplants was a lifting disappointing. There was no garlic flavor to it and it was overly salty. I would not get this again. Did not enjoy.

    A4. 8 Piece Cream Cheese Wontons

    My partner and I ordered takeout from this restaurant on Sunday night. I've heard about this place before so wanted to give it a try. We called and ordered Cream Cheese Wontons, Orange Chicken with Steamed Rice, and Combination Chow Fun. Our total came out to about $45. The order was ready when we arrived about 15 minutes later. The restaurant was pretty small. There was no one dining in, but there were a couple others who ordered takeout. My partner and I took a couple bites of the food in the car to taste the food when it was most fresh. The wontons were great. No complaints. They tasted fresh out the fryer, extremely crispy, and had a good ratio. Unfortunately, the orange chicken was dry. I wasn't in love with the taste, but the portion size was nice. I had two filling meals out of the orange chicken and rice. My partner thought the Combination Chow Fun was alright but not the best. Overall, I didn't love this restaurant so I will not be visiting again. It would not be the first Chinese restaurant I would recommend. Parking: Free parking lot

    The food here is pretty basic, and it's lacking. a lot of the usual Asian flavors and spices. The food is pretty one-dimensional however they give large portions and the price is really really good. If you just want a meal for a good deal this is definitely the spot for you.

    This place has gone through so many incarnations and I've been loyal on and off for over the past 15 years but they've become progressively worst as far customer service and some cases certain food items! I had Ordered from them through Uber eats and they got my order wrong so I called the store to complain and the guy blamed it on the kitchen and then he just started yelling and screaming at me over the phone! I was in shock so of course I matched his energy because I was totally caught off guard! The employees there are absolutely evil! They have no respect for their customers so they're not interested in building relationships with their long time & loyal customers! They just want money and that behavior makes me question what goes on behind the scenes especially in the kitchen! I've had many disagreements with them over the past 15 years but they've crossed boundaries that should not have been crossed! I'm officially done with this place so I won't ever be ordering from the place again! I hope others will do the same because they don't deserve people's hard earned money!

    This place is an institution. After I wrote that sentence, I felt like I was trite. And like I said…read moresomething but not really. Like, one time I was watching Project Runway, a season finale episode, where the designers make their own creations, and do not have to make their ensembles from shredded newspaper or bird seeds or pinata remnants. And after a so-and-so of the fashion industry said, "I wanted to go and rip that jacket off the model." This other time, I saw a poster for a coming musical and it said, "stop everything you are doing, and go this musical now" says this important person in the theathre world. What am I am trying to say is that the comment I wanted to do this immediately or drop everything and do this immediately is so overwrought and widely used that it lost all meaning. Kind of like calling this place an institution. So I will call this place what I should to not be drown in my own trite. One time I went to this place and I went cause I was invited to a birthday party. And it was a large group of people. Me and a friend debated if Penny, from the Big Bang, had eaten at this place. She was also in Charmed--- it is a household name, I can't remember it. So this place is famous enough to be a go to move, and it has many pictures of celebrities that have gone there. The food is also super good, so this place, like I said is an insititution. When I went there a second time, I was more aware of the place I was visiting and kind of was ready to receive its Chinese fare with an unhinged jaw. I was dining with a friend, the same friend that I had the is that Penny from Big Bang debate? It was not. She eventually one. But like she and I ate here again, without knowing we were going to the same place. I would say its a small world but.... She and I ate with gusto. It does not take a lot to know that the speciality of the house is their slippery shrimp. They also have slippery chicken and slippery tofu. Super good, sweet, sour but it was not sweet and sour sauce shrimp, it had differences. I am not sure what. There were some heat notes but not like terrible heat. So I am not exactly sure what this place does to make their slippery sauce but let us just that it was delicious and different than other Chinese food sauces. Ronnie and I had the works. Rice, Beef with Brocoli, Pan fried dumplings, and dumpings. It was the type of Chinese food that was so good a coke was needed to balance the decadent saltiness of the fare. Yeah, that might not make sense but I wrote what I wrote. We had eniugh food to share between the two of us. It was that type of meal, where leftovers were welcomed and made sense. They were not left over, they were left untouched because it would be a shame to not enjoy them later. The service was great. The place felt traditional, and like it took you to an alley in China to eat a grandmother's food who knows how to use a Wok and pinch dumplings so they stay close for good. I saw this bad review that skewered this place. And I am like wow! How can we be so different. Not like Ying and Yang Different, more like flutter and flatten. But taste is subjective, so decide for yourself if this place is a peacock worthy of its feathers or a tiger with its claws clipped.

We ordered the combination fried rice, Mongolian beef, slippery shrimp, beef lo mein, mixed veggies and Szechuan chicken. Everything was delicious and super flavorful! It took a while for our server to attend to us once we were seated (we waited about 10min before we asked to have our order taken) but after that the servers were very attentive. The place is busy. Quick turn around. One bathroom for the entire restaurant so expect a line. I saw a sign out front for valet parking but I didn't see anyone. But there's plenty of parking places nearby. Found a place down the street for $8 all day parking.

It was a but busy when we got there but luckily we got seared pretty shortly after arrival. We originally wanted to sit at the bar, but opted for a table for less wait time. When first looking at the menu we were shocked by the prices. I knew immediately i wanted to get the hui tou potstikers with pork and noodles. We ended up adding on the hongkong style wontons too. To my suprise the wontons arrived in a delicious and warm broth, keeping them perfectly moist and plump. The broth was so delicious even on a hot day, tasting faintly of sesame and scallion. Despite both dishes being pork they were so different and equally amazing in flavor. The pan fried potstikers which were CRISPED TO PERFECTION especially reminded me of black bean shortribs that you get from dimsum, fatty but hearty and had me wanting more and more each bite. The minced pork noodles were to no suprise, so good. Noodles tasted fresh, the sauce was umami with mushrooms and pork. While im not the biggest fan of mushrooms, i still ate it up. I feel it would be so good with some picked cabbage too to complement the saltiness. Most notable thing... THAT CHILI OIL. We probably used almost half the jar left at the table. It wasnt spicy at all, but it had this flavor that i genuinely have never tasted before. The texture of the chilli and sesame and the nutty flavor had me in awe. Enough to take two jars home... i would do it again. Servers were so quick, made sure everything we needed was at the table. Regardless of the crowd we were met with promptness and generosity.

Everything was prepared wonderfully and had tremendous flavor. I recommend trying their Hui Tou, stuffed with pork or beef, pork and leek pancakes, they also have vegetarian options. Their pork shumai was delicious, xiao long bao's soup dumplings were flavorful. Delicious. I definitely need a second trip here to try their soups and more of their variety of dumplings.

The braised pork belly was so incredibly soft and melt-in-your-mouth, and paired with the pickled carrots and cucumbers tucked into that steamed bao bun - so juicy.

The wood ear mushroom and bean curd stick salad was a nice lighter contrast to the heavier dishes too. We tried the beef noodles as well.

The way it's set up is pretty cultural. It reminds me of some hole-in-the-wall Asian restaurant the way they have metal utensils at each table. It's almost like a self-serve system to certain tools which is pretty common. I haven't drank water out of metal cup in a long time, so that was nostalgic too. We tried a variety of dishes to get a fuller understanding of their menu of what this place has to offer. I was really looking forward to the beef roll because it's usually one of my favorite dishes, but this one was disappointing. I define a good beef roll as one that's a good mix of sweet, savory and refreshing. The meat makes it savory and the veggies are supposed to counter it make the whole dish feel light. If someone disagrees with me, please share your thoughts on what a beef roll should taste like. The one from Pine & Crane was drenched in sauce. I could not taste the meat or the veggies and the whole thing tasted like a stick of sugar. The mapo tofu was on point, but this is quality you can probably make at home. The flavor profile was very similar to that of stuff you'd get a grocery store. The three cup jidori chicken came recommended, so we tried it. The flavor is very pungent and goes well with rice.
