Hu tieu ga? Or something similar.
Laura P.

I happened upon this place when I was actually on the way back from another restaurant I love. It was too late (and I was also very full!), but I vowed to come back. I was not disappointed. This is definitely a family run business, which I always really enjoy. Our waitress was helpful and friendly, as a good portion of the menu kind of assumed you knew what certain dishes were, which is not a negative for me (I have a smartphone, I can google stuff! Or ask whoever is waiting on us). My friend ordered a pork, shrimp, egg, and rice dish while I got hu tieu ga, I think! I made the mistake of forgetting to take a picture of the menu, but hu tieu ga is one of my recent google searches, so I got that or something similar. It was basically a soup similar to pho, but with clear rice noodles and chicken instead of pork. Both dishes were divine and both were so big, it required boxes at the end. The bill with drinks came out to $11-12 each before tip, which is definitely a deal in my book. The restaurant is located a lot further south than I'd like to drive most days, but I will definitely be back!

Tried the combination pho, which has everything in it. Broth was oily and rich, which is a good thing, but it was missing that five spice aroma that is synonymous with pho. It was a good broth, but for something like chicken noodle soup or beef noodle, not really for pho. It was still delicious, just didn't feel like it hit the spot for my authentic Vietnamese pho craving. The waitress was really nice, and polite. They also have house made hot chili oil on the table, which makes a huge difference to the taste of the broth, but still didn't smell like pho.

We usually get take out. First time eating in at this location. There is a large event space…read moreavailable for rent. Nostalgic of the Americanized Chinese food I grew up with including the paper zodiac placemats and tea cups. There is a bar, and a mix of tables and booths. We were seated right away. Hot & Sour Soup - the perfect balance of black pepper spice and sourness. As good as I remember. Sometimes I'll ask for half-and-half - half hot & sour and half egg drop soup. General Tso's Chicken - pleasantly surprised with the large and tender chicken pieces with less breading. Did not taste any spice, but it did come with the spicy red chili peppers you can eat for more spice. Great flavor otherwise. Curry Chicken - green curry with tender chicken and I liked all the veggies that gave it great texture - green peppers, onions, celery, small chunks of water chestnuts, peas and carrots. Marked as spicy on the menu, but I tasted absolutely nothing spicy. I can no longer tolerate much spice so that was surprising. I am limiting white rice consumption so I wish they had brown rice as an option. Only white rice or fried rice available. I just ate our meals witbout rice. We had a nice family dinner and would come back.

After seeing this restaurant take first place in the "Best of West Michigan" vote for Chinese…read morerestaurants my wife and I decided to give it a try. This is a big place with a very nice dining area - clean, well-lit, and not loud or "tight" at all. Service was impeccable - fast, friendly, and accurate. Why only three stars, you ask? The food was, at best, average. My wife and I both like spicy food, and prefer seafood for our protein. So, she ordered the Hunan Shrimp lunch special (with hot sour soup and white rice) and I ordered the Kung Pao Shrimp (with hot sour soup and fried rice). The soup was a bowl, not a cup, and was FULL of meat, vegetables, egg, and tofu. It looked great. The taste was...unusual compared to others I've had. The "hot" seemed exclusively due to a huge amount of black pepper. The "sour" was barely discernible - no trace of vinegar or similar. Very hearty, vegetables nice, but the overall taste was meh. Our entrees arrived and they were HUGE. You definitely get your money's worth here. The crab cheese was nice - crispy with a decent amount of filling. The eggrolls we got were very different. My wife's was mostly cabbage, while mine had a nice variety of things in the filling, the best eggroll I've had in a while. I definitely appreciated both plum sauce and hot mustard - it's rare to get the latter these days. My fried rice was decent - not bad but not distinctive, and my wife thought her white rice was a bit overcooked. The entrees were the source of our biggest disappointment. The sauces on the Hunan and Kung Pao were bland and indistinguishable. They tasted absolutely identical - like brown gravy with a few peppers tossed in. Despite a little "burn" the sauce was reminiscent of grandma's beef gravy. Vegetables in both dishes were nice - good variety and nicely crisp. Shrimp was cooked perfectly and there were many. Despite the positives, they just couldn't overcome how bland the sauce was. I will probably give this place another shot and not order the same food. The service and atmosphere are so good I think I need to try it again.

Taste & Flavor - 10/10 Flavor balance - The balance of flavors dancing on your tongue is immaculate it's not too sweet not too spicy it's just perfect. Freshness: 10/10 You could tell that the stuff was freshly prepared there wasn't anything that was stale Portion Size - 10/10 I was full after the first 10 rolls and then took home the other 10 and proceeded to get full again. Value for Money - 10/10 I paid a total of $21 for two special roles the Cali deluxe rolls which were deep fried rolls. That is a steal when it comes to sushi. ‍ Service - 10/10 Service was fast and friendly and on top of things. Overall Rating: 10/10 Final Verdict: wasabi sushi and Chinese is by far one of the best sushi places I've ever tried and as someone who goes out of their way to try as many as possible- This one exceeded my expectations. Would I return? If I could eat here on a daily basis I would. Would I recommend it? Absolutely it would be a great place to get together with friends or even bring a couple family members or have a date night.
