    Rice a palooza lunch
    D W.

    Been here many times, won't be going back. -Previous dinner orders of General Tso's chicken is full of breading it's arguably 75% breading just terrible. -So much rice for lunch now they are purposely pushing the rice outside the two small cups in the styrofoam to take up more space in the entrees area it was the same in all three of our lunch orders. -Beef and chicken lunches had maybe 3 ounces of actual meat. -Sauces all lack flavor they are a just sweet, watered down soy sauce mess. -Spring rolls are wrapped so many times to limit the filing to have to really bite down with gusto and sort of naw your way through it, they are not crisp and delicate with nice filling as they should be. Just sad about this place, really thought I found a decent Chinese restaurant that cared about quality, and cost engineering their food, wasn't crazy expensive, alas I was wrong.

    We ordered dinner for takeout on their online website. We got the crab rangoon, general tso shrimp and beef chow fun. Crab rangoon was good.. the general tso shrimp was extremely over sugared. For a dish that is supposed to be spicy, this was not spicy at all. It was like eating candy shrimp. Online ordering was easy but our notes/comments were ignored. For example: we asked to make a normally spicy dish, extra spicy, but it came out non-spicy. Beef chow fun was decent and had snow peas which is always a nice addition to the dish. Overall, this place is reasonably priced but portions are scaled that way. Good if you're in a rush and want quick takeout.

    Highly recommended for take out or Del Ray neighborhood of Alexandria delivery. Been eating their take out for over ten years. Family run, this is really good food. The vegetables are fresh and cooked perfectly. Highly recommend the Chicken and broccoli, or the shrimp and broccoli as the oyster sauce is very well done. In those ten years, we've gotten to know them well - and they are good honest folk. Let me repeat that, these are good honest, hard working folk. The food is always good, they work hard to make it that way, and they produce a very good meal at a very good price. Yes, the store front is nothing great. But the food that comes across the counter is really good, well seasoned, and properly prepared.

    Be very careful, these people did not deliver my food order correctly and when I called to let them know they came out denying what was missing and the payment for my food was made and they even collected the tip from the person in charge of the delivery without authorization

    Solid takeout Chinese option! Orange chicken was great. Fried rice was average. There in a spring roll for free! Win!

The owners were very kind, friendly, and attentive! There were a couple of tables inside, so we chose to dine in. Everything tasted fresh, not at all salty, and prepared with care and love. I'd love to try out their lunch specials and other chef specialty entrees on the next visit.

We've eaten at nearly every asian restaurant in the area because we're pretty picky and if we want consistently good American Chinese food where we'd actually finish the leftovers, we always come here. We only wished sometimes they'd offer real Chinese dishes and a smaller portion for smaller price (so we can order more dishes) but that might be adventurous, though I feel for this area the palate would allow it. Also, as a security person I want to comment on the website/credit card compromise several old reviews mention: This type of scam is happening to other restaurants in the area (such as Momo's) and I would recommend against ever ordering online through websites (for pickup or delivery). UberEats and GrubHub takes a painful bite out of profits for small restaurants, but BeyondMenu doesn't take as much of a cut and the restaurant gets to use their own delivery drivers. I support them this way. I recommend the restaurant consolidate their orders in a safe way that discourages online ordering through their website to avoid this issue. Finally, phone orders are probably still a good way to do business, but I recommend pickup and to pay with tap or smart chip, not slide. I really think they deserve more stars than they have.

The space is airy, filled with light and felt modern and beautifully designed. Decided to do the Endless Table Essentials Tier ($44/guest) with some drinks (+$1 each). I felt like the food in this tier was pretty good value - highlights were the xiao chi platter, the char siu specials (perfect char), pork wuharou, and little pot mixian noodle. The food came out a little bit slow despite the restaurant not being full, which contributed to us eating less than I expected to during the 90 min res. But, for AYCE the food quality definitely beat my expectations. Would skip the crispy garlic rice as it was pretty plain and the souffle pancake (honestly more sponge cake than souffle?). I've heard the Braised Beef Lu is good so I'd come back to try that next time. If you're looking for a modern asian brunch/lunch spot, definitely recommend checking out this restaurant!
