  • Did this place undergo new management? I haven't been here in at least 6 months and noticed immediately upon walking in that they've done a remodel. The walls are now red and they've got booths along one side. They kept the same old tattered menus, however, that looked like they can fall apart any minute. I was craving their Dan Dan noodles and it's definitely different now. Instead of spicy Sichuan goodness, this version is closer to Thai peanut noodles. Not entirely unappetizing but not what I was expecting at all. I felt robbed! The lunch special green curry with beef was a large portion. There was a generous amount of beef in there, along with black shiitake mushrooms, red bell peppers, snow peas and onions. My son seemed happy enough with it but I tasted it and it was also different from what I recalled in the past. The chicken lo mein was average, not any better than a Chinese take out place. Same with the pork potstickers. The last dish that we got, scallion pancakes, was probably the best dish of our meal. It came in 8 large wedge shaped pieces and while greasy, had good flavor. I did find it weird that the waitress didn't bring out a sauce for it and she seemed confused when I asked for one. We ended up using the dipping sauce from the potstickers and that worked fine. Bottom line, given all these changes, this place no longer distinguishes itself as one of the better authentic Chinese restaurants in Madison. It's now just like any of the dozen quick take out places in town but with higher prices. Edit: found out why the green curry "lunch" portion was generous. Even though we pointed out the item clearly to the waitress on the lunch menu, she ordered it as a dinner item. So of course we got charged $12 instead of $7.50 and when I pointed this out to her, she just shrugged and did not offer to make any adjustments on the price or at the very least apologize. Another reason to not come back.
