A few pieces of my chicken were a little tough and chewy, but the sauces and rest of the meal were fine. The BBQ pork was amazing and tasted like it was made there, and not prepackaged with red dye like other places. Will go back!

Finally got to try the food and it's probably the best Chinese/Asian fusion food that I've had…read morearound here in Spokane. When we go to our go-to fast food Chinese restaurant, the chow mein is either too salty, too sweet, or often a bit of both. We went during the dinner rush so the wait was a bit long. We were surprised by the portions of the food because we still had quite a bit of leftovers and we ordered for 4 adults and a kiddo, and we all had 2nd or 3rd helpings. It's nice to finally find our default Asian food restaurant here.

I had lunch and boba here for the first time today, and I'd definitely recommend it! Our server was…read moresuper friendly and attentive throughout our meal. We ordered the Vegetable Delight (stir-fry), Chicken Ho Fen, and Popcorn Chicken. Everything was delicious, and there was more than enough food to feed three people. For drinks, we got the Strawberry Matcha (without the foam), Oolong Black Tea with Sea Salt Foam, and Okinawa Milk Tea. Even after choosing "less sugar," the drinks were still a bit too sweet for my taste. The boba was also a little too cold and firm, which is why I'm docking one star. Next time, I'd probably order them with no sugar and give the boba another try. Overall, I really enjoyed dining here and would definitely come back!

The ambience was a throwback, and I would love to see a restaurant this large bustling. It was clean but dated, in a charming way if you can appreciate its history. We had the boo boo appetizer platter which was good, although the quantity of food wasn't quite worth the price and it was tough for each person to try each item. The favorite was the fried prawn and egg rolls. My husband ordered the No 1 and I ordered the No 2. My dish was great! The fried rice lacked flavor. My husband's dish, while elements were good, was overall unappetizing from the plating and what seemed to be a pile of steamed cabbage taking up half the plate. My mom's Moo Shu pork was disappointing to her, but as someone that has no frame of reference for what it should be I thought it was good. I will say, I loved that nothing was super greasy and everything seemed fresh. It was not the best tasting Chinese food, but I also didn't leave with a gut bomb and feeling gross. I'll probably be back given its convenient location and fresh options!
