| - I've passed by this restaurant a couple times, and it has always been packed full of Chinese families, which is always a good sign. So, I decided to try it out.
Overall the dishes were pretty good and lean towards the salty side. Tonight, I had the "three cold side dishes" of pork stomach, pig ears, and tofu which were FANTASTIC. The seasoning was perfect and the pig ears were sliced extra thin. The second course was no.6 - live fish with peppered bean curd. This dish was a bit on the fishy side, and while it is definitely cheap for a whole fish ($13), I would not recommend it. Instead, try the beef noodle soup. It is very flavorful and the meat is part fatty and part lean, just the way I like it. It also went well with the pig ear side dish. Finally I ended the night with the xiao long bao. The skin was good but the meat filling was average.
Overall the service was good and the waiters were all very nice, especially considering how busy the restaurant was. It was also a bit loud and cramped inside, but definitely worth a visit for the food.
