My free vegetables were stir fried cabbage, pickled red cabbage, and stirfry bean sprouts. For my free add-ons, I did fried soy beans, ginger scallion sauce and some cilantro. The line was not terribly long and the bowl is huge and delicious. I would say half of it for later but I don't have a refrigerator where I'm working! Fun flavors and I like the texture of the noodles too. Highly recommended in New Haven!

My booth was kind of in the middle of the room and was open on both sides so felt a little exposed and weird, I would have preferred a cozy booth with flowers or in a corner/against a wall. I guess that's on me for not asking to be moved, but it was weird I was sat there when it wasn't that busy. Service could not have been more friendly - both the hostess and my server were so incredibly nice and personable, especially since I was on a road trip and eating by myself. My server went out of her way to make me feel comfortable and to get to know me and was very sweet and attentive, which I really appreciated. I loved that there was a vegan option in almost every category of the menu. I got the Vegan Dumplings and was a little underwhelmed - the dumpling skin was so thin they broke apart easily when I picked them up with chopsticks, which made them even harder to eat. The presentation wasn't great and they were unevenly spaced and kind of deflated and small looking. They were also 90% mushrooms which I don't really like but will tolerate in Asian food, but the flavor was still pretty meh, and I normally go crazy for dumplings. I also got the Vegan Spicy Wontons, which were better than the dumplings and came in a similarly colored green wrapping. They were thicker than the dumplings but were a little difficult to pick up with chopsticks due to the shape. They were yummy but again pretty heavy on the mushrooms. I normally don't like spicy food but have been liking spicy Chinese dishes lately, and these really weren't too hot at all, so even if you're a little sensitive to spice you'd probably be okay with these. My favorite part was the Fruity Yogurt Tea with Boba that I got in the Mango flavor. It was a little frustrating to have to pay extra for Boba when this was listed under the 'Bubble Tea' part of the menu, so you'd think that would be included. My server recommended I get this at 30% sweetness, which was the perfect amount - I can't believe it was only 30% because it was still pretty sweet! It was tasty and came in a cute to go cup that I requested so I could enjoy it on my way home. I was surprised and sad they didn't have any desserts with a Chinese flair, like a dessert soup dumpling or anything like that. I'm glad I stopped in and would want to try the Vegan Soup Dumplings and Cucumber Salad next time - it was really hard to choose this time. I wish I was a little more excited about the food I did get, but the flavors weren't too special or exciting sadly. The branding and name of this place are phenomenal though and made me want to stop in the second I saw it when I drove by, so A+ to the creative team on that! If I were local I'd stop by for some of their happy hour etc. specials they advertise.

Years Later, Authenticity and Pride are still the words I would use to describe this place!!!…read more Have things changed since they first opened and post-Covid, Yes in operations, but the food remained consistently great. Their current operations could definitely use some great improvement! We arrived to a sign on the door saying reservations wete needed to dine- in. So i stood there and called. They encouraged us to get take-out but i said we were outside and was persistent on dining in. She said 5 minutes. They were already inside, but now they keep the front door locked to prevent ppl from just walking in. I think they prefer for people to order online but to me the food just wouldn't be the same taking it home. So this is real Chinese food. Not like the American stuff most people are used to, but Authentic Chinese like if you actually traveled to China. This place used to have 2 menus, 1 Chinese and 1 American "Chinese" but the woman said that they no longer Serve the American Chinese menu. It's mostly the Authentic cuisine and there were only a handful of American Chinese dishes still served. I could sense the owner's annoyance when 1 person in the group kept asking for dishes not on the menu. It was hard for this girl to understand that the Chinese food that she randomly eats isn't real Chinese food lol. I'm sure that they get a lot of that from Americans... Also note that some of the prices have changed, but the owner was upfront about it. The most accurate pricing is with their online take-out menu. I learned that with their culture, everyone typically orders a dish and then the food is served family style. So two people ordering one dish and splitting it, while not illegal it can be offensive to the culture. This time I started with the smashed cucumber salad. It was a good start definitely enough to share with the table. I tried the West lake thick soup. I had to ask what it was since there was No description, but I went for it. Don't remember exactly what's in it is but I would definitely get it again. The owner was more than happy to answer any questions about the food, the history, and their culture. We ordered a number of dishes, beef with scallions and onion, dbl fried sliced pork belly, crispy pork with sweet and sour, beef w/broccoli and potato w/ chili peppers. All were delish! It's definitely not the American version we are accustomed to. There were veggies we couldn't identify, while others used in ways new to us. The food was all very flavorful And everything is still made fresh in their kitchen. Another tip is Pleeeease don't ask for soy sauce, duck sauce, or any other condiments you are used to. They put their heart and soul in these dishes so It is very offensive. Appreciate the food as prepared, and don't try to Americanize out of habit. Taste it first, I can almost guarantee that you won't need it. Remember these are Chinese people bringing a taste of their culture to America. They don't want to be Americanized, which is why i noticed that most of their patrons are Asian. Definitely go with an open mind! Call ahead and reserve a table if you want to dine-in. Just Enjoy!
