Dipping their toes in so many different arenas might actually be their detriment because they're going for everything while not excelling in most. I would rather they cut down on some dishes and make sure all are great instead. I absolutely love their Thai fried chicken, which is so affordable (8 pieces for $12), and tastes so crispy on the outside but so moist and flavorful on the inside. It comes with a tangy fish sauce, but you can add different green curry and/or red curry for 50 cents each. I like it best with the fish sauce. However, that's the Thai fried chicken is the only dish I absolutely love from this place. Everything else is very mediocre, which is unfortunate. 6 rolls bento - $15; comes with california roll, spicy tuna roll, lobster salad roll, salmon avocado roll, eel cucumber roll, shrimp tempura, kani salad, seaweed salad, and fried chicken. It's a lot of food for $15, and the sushi actually tastes decent. The kani salad, seaweed salad, and fried chicken are just tiny portions, but the fried chicken are like nuggets and taste really bad. 4/5 Mushroom noodles - $10; It's so rare to find such affordable e-fu noodles but sadly, it tastes nothing like what e-fu noodles should taste like. I wouldn't even know that they're supposed to be e-fu noodles if I just blindly tasted. I would not get this again here. 3/5 Pad see ew beef - $13; Again, like the mushroom noodles, it didn't taste like pad see ew. It's missing that sweetness and charred factor that's usually present in pad see ew. 3/5 Pad Kra Pao (??) - I can't remember if it's this dish that I got, but it was some type of Thai rice dish with a meat sauce. It was so terrible, I only ate 10% of it and didn't take it to go. 1/5 Pad thai - I didn't try it but my friend got it and the color looked really off. Aside from the food, there are other improvements to be made here. It seems like a family-run restaurant, with only two workers facing the customers. It's really hard to get their attention when the restaurant is busy. The space is very tight and looks like it could be more well-maintained. They also need more menus. Hard to share just one with the whole table.

Ambiance is nice. For appetizer we got the rock n appetizer which was good. Then for entrees we ordered: the dancing eel roll and hubby got the California dinner. His came with soup and I got the salad. I love their salad because of the sauce. I ate some pieces of my husband's roll and they were good. Dancing eel roll was good but a bit sweet and I didn't like it too much. I used to order that a lot before my pregnancy and now I didn't care for it. I also got the green tea tempura ice cream. It was good, but next time I'll should ask them to hold the whipped cream. It made it too sweet and I couldn't taste the green tea ice cream much. Next time, I'll try other rolls or the unagi don which is good too.

Very popular with the locals. The manager said it's crowded early in the mornings, so expect a wait unless you get here before the doors open. You can get a seat faster if you are willing to share a table with strangers. Say... Who is that, trying to eat my pork bun? Usual old school carts are pushed around often. The usual dim sum suspects are served piping hot. Tried various dishes. Good but not great. Many private rooms in the back for large parties. Each private room are equipped with their own A/V system with Karaoke (for those less timid). My favorite were the shao mai. I've rarely seen a place put in so many mushrooms! My least favorite were the taro puffs. Were these just taken out of the fridge? But at least they give you four! But on the smaller sized than normal. Some parking beside the restaurant.

This spot feels super low-key, like a 'if you know, you know' place. All of the tables were filled with Chinese families, which made me feel excited because usually that tells me a place is going to be good. Seems like a hidden gem because I was expecting more yelp reviews for this place. We ordered the following: - braised pigeon - fresh squid with salt and pepper - Salted Fish & Chicken Tofu Pot - Sautéed String Beans with Minced Pork - prawns with walnuts (mayo on the side) - off menu mei fun dish (forgot the name) - crispy large fried sausage (fried pork intestines cut open) The pigeon was crispy and flavorful, especially with the salt and sweet dipping sauce. The fried squid was fresh with a crispy exterior but still soft and fluffy inside. The salted fish & chicken tofu pot came out sizzling hot, and the tofu was incredibly smooth and silky, it paired so well with rice. The string beans were packed with flavor and had a great crunch from the meat and pickled vegetables. The prawns were massive, fresh, and perfectly crunchy. The mei fun and pig intestines were decent, though it didn't stand out for me. The pig intestines needed just a pinch more salt but it was still good. Overall, the food was delicious and definitely worth trying. The waiters seem to speak mostly Chinese but I'm sure you can order with some basic English or point at items on the menu. Would recommend if you're in the area looking for a family style meal.

It was a quiet Sunday afternoon for lunch. Decided on a sushi for appetizer and a rice don bowl for meal. Lunch special had any 2 rolls for $8.95 and they have a spicy scallops roll. It turn out to be a California roll with chopped spicy scallops on top. If I knew, I would not have gotten it as I imagine a spicy tuna roll but with scallops. I don't normally get California roll (not basic) because I also don't know what imitatation crab Kani stick product they are using as I have a crustacean allergy. Some Kani stick is purely fish and some have crab extract in it which I can't have. I wish there menu had more details/informations but most sushi places don't list what is in the rolls and expect you to know it or Google it. But for people with allergies (yes, I know, why eat sushi if I have a crustacean allergy but there are other options for me), we would love to know what is in the dish. Ordered: 2 rolls for $8.95: eel avocado & spicy scallop rolls and a Salmon Eel Don. Lots of rice for don and good portion fish. Zoomed in photo of the spicy scallop sushi showed it was California roll with the chopped spicy scallops on top. Overall, enjoyed my lunch. Would definitely come back to try other dons and noodles.

The fact that it's all on skewers makes cooking and eating easy. It's truly such a wonderful dining experience. We came with a large party of 11 and we were more than satisfied. Everything was delicious and I love how easy it is to get more skewers on your own. They also have a large selection of drinks from soy milk to herbal teas. In the end, you also get ice cream although the flavors are pretty basic here. Note that if you pay in cash, you get free durian, which is nice and creamy.

We got the hotpot and skewers combo and the experience was quite nice and different. We ordered the soup base for hotpot with the workers and the skewers as well. All the hotpot items are in the fridge in the back along with the drinks which is also included in the price (all you can drink). We ordered skewers and whatever offerings that came with this option and then went to get stuff for hotpot. I think they have a good enough variety and the fun part is to put the sticks in the hotpot and eat off of it as well. WIth the skewers options, I think each person gets a scallop with vermicelli but we didnt know and we asked for seconds (whooops). the lady was nice enough to give it to us anyway. The workers are super attentive and very helpful. As for drink options, they have a variety of sodas, wong lo jie, fruity drinks. I was def happy even though I tried not to drink too much. They also have "snacks" on the back side by the drink fridge that you can help yourself to. Will definitely be back to try the grilll fish option!

The food was beautifully presented in an authentic way and the service was quick.

The restaurants was very lively and spacious which I appreciate. We got a large corner table with the turntable in the middle. We started the meal with two chicken feet dim sum and Mah Lai Goh. The dim sum while looked nice did not have much flavor. One of the things you have to watch out for are the dim sum cart ladies would try to put dim sum dishes you didn't even ask for on your table so you have to make sure to protect your stamp card. You will be charged for items you didn't even ask for. The seven dishes we ordered were: Shrimp with Broccoli and Walnut, Seafood Pan Fried Noodles, Roast Pork, Young Chow Fried Rice, Buddha Delight, Ginger Scallion Chicken, Steamed Fish. The waiter was nice enough but he was really trying to upsell and have us order more than what we ask for. He screwed up two of the seven dishes. I ended up getting the Roast Pork Ping Poon which is the dish with Roast Pork and other meats and jelly fish after I specifically made it very clear that I did not want that particular dish. When it arrived, he tried to make an excuse claiming since we have ten people, it was best to have this dish since the roast pork by itself would be too plain. I wrote this one off since he agreed to charge me as if I got a Roast Pork instead of the platter. The other dish they screwed up was the Chicken Dish. They gave me some Chicken with brown sauce. I just wanted a very basic chopped whole chicken. They then claimed they don't have a basic chicken with scallions and ginger so I had to suck it up and take this dish. I would have been disappointed but the Chicken Dish was actually not bad so all was not loss. The dishes to never order: Buddha Delight- This dish reeks of strong MSG and salt. It's not much green veggies in the dish except mushrooms, more mushrooms and mushrooms. I would skip this dish if I were you. You're basically paying for canned mushrooms on a plate. Young Chow Fried Rice- Seems basic enough but no flavor. It does look good though. After not much shrimp. In the entire dish, you get maybe two pieces of shrimp. Not worth the price or the space in your stomach. Roast Pork Platter- The roast pork didn't have much meat on it. It was very fatty and the adjoining meats were no good. They have the pork slices, the jelly fish, the seaweed and the beef. All were sour and not tasty. Never get this dish. You are wasting your money. The best dishes: Shrimp with Broccoli and Walnuts- Even though the walnut was burnt, the shrimp with mayonnaise sauce was awesome! Steamed Red Grouper- They only had three types of fish to choose from so I had to go with this one since my mother did not like the other fishes. It was surprisingly a good choice. It was very fresh. This one is good. The fish was steamed just right and the meat was very succulent Okay Dishes: Seafood Pan Fried Noodle- It was basic enough but they drench the sauce over the noodles so the noodles got soggy fast. Definitely not something you wanna take home if you don't finish it in the restaurant. Chicken with Brown Sauce- The chicken was very large and meaty. The sauce was not bad. It was actually better than the plain chicken they chop up for you. After the banquet, they give you some sliced oranges. I give this place three stars for the service and the food. I would come back here again but not for the dim sum and the bad dishes. If you want the ordinary dishes like the roast duck, roast pork or anything of the likes, this would not be the place for it.
