| - I love a good Chinese restaurant. I've been a "regular" at Han for the better part of two years now, and while there are a couple of close seconds in the area, Han for me is the best! Quiet, friendly service, and a great menu with many different dishes aside from the standard Genetal Tso's Chicken.
Much like many of the Asian restaurants in this area of town, you may have some apprehensions about going in at first. It can be overwhelming if not awkward, especially for a suburbanite such as myself. But I would encourage you to cast aside any feelings of uneasiness and give this place a try. There is a bit of a language barrier from time to time with some of the servers, but they will always take the time to try to understand what it is you are looking for, and they truly want to make it a pleasant experience for you. I've gotten to know a number of them over the past couple of years, and they're always eager to introduce me to new dishes. Put yourself out there with a friendly smile, and you'll be amazed at the response you will get.
On the menu-side of things, I can't say enough about a couple of their dishes in particular. The Korean Spicy Seafood Noodle Soup for example, is piquant with Korean spices, chunks of squid and shrimp, cabbage, carrots, udon noodles. Yum! Other delicious offerings that are a bit more toward the authentic side are the Xinjang Style Lamb (spicy ), Chongquin Casserole () , Boiled Fish in Spicy Szechuan Sauce (), and Mapo Tofu. Don't let the scare you though, if that's not your thing tell them, and they can tone down the spice for you.
I'm in there at least once a week for lunch, if not more. I've never had a bad experience at Han, and I often find new things, or specials to try. If you like Chinese, and care to be a little daring, Han is the place to open you up to a while new world of Chinese food.
