We had sauteed chicken and string beans, black bean chicken, pan fried dumplings, chicken lo mein and chicken fried rice. All delicous!!!

Best Chinese food in south Florida!
The atmosphere in the restaurant is very pleasant, and the service is excellent. We had spicy dry pot and crispy diced chicken with chilli. Both dishes were 10/10 and very generous amounts

I’ve been here a few times two out of three times and the food was good Much better than any of the other Chinese restaurants around town, however one time I walked out because we were totally ignored for at least 10+ minutes and the restaurant was pretty empty
