  • I'll give it a 2. I've definitely had better. They have a minimal English menu, but what English the have on their menu is confusing. The majority of the menu is in Chinese. To my knowledge (I don't read Chinese), they specialize in something akin to Northern Chinese style hot pot, but one has to order each item for said hot pot individually. That being said, some of the items I saw in English said, and no soup bases or sauces were mentioned in English, "basa fillet", "shrimp", "chicken wings", etc. I'm not sure what the price point per item was either. We weren't interested in hot pot, not having enough time, but we had seen outside that they had noodles and dumplings, which are not on their actual menu. We had to ask them for that menu. We got "noodles in sauce - $7.99" and Chinese fried pork buns - $5.50 for 10. Talk about vague. The noodles in sauce ended up being broad noodles in a broth that tasted of cinnamon, soy sauce, brown vinegar and chili oil. This was topped with chunks of carrots, potatoes, celery, wood ear fungus, dried tofu and a minute amount of minced pork. For $7.99, I certainly expected more. The Chinese fried pork buns were a disappointment. A month ago, while in Shanghai, I was having the most incredible Chinese fried buns of my life. Those were the size of a typical steamed bun and were incredibly crisp on the outside, and squirted juice when bit into. These were about the size of a steamed soup bun, were slightly burnt on the bottom, the wrap was hard (not even chewy. Hard.) and had next to no liquid in them. They were not dry, just disappointing. Their most redeeming quality was that each bun had a sprinkle of black sesame seeds and a few slivers of green onions on them as garnish. At least that was pleasant to look at. The table we were at was sticky. That was gross. Unless you speak fluent Mandarin, and ideally can read Chinese as well, I don't suggest you come here. The servers seem to only speak Mandarin and they are quite impatient when you don't speak Mandarin and you ask questions about their vague menu items. I came once. That was enough for me. I won't be coming again.
