Great place, great food, great service. Noticeably fresh ingredients. The flavors just jump off the plate.The spicy dry cooked beans are amazing. The garlic eggplant is terrific. And the ginger chicken, mentioned by another reviewer, is so sweet it should be served for dessert. The prices are not the cheapest (nor the most expensive) but you get what you pay for here. Oh, and ice-cold Tsing Tao is only $5 a bottle so at least you don't get extorted on the beverage side of the menu. The restaurant itself is always empty and I have no idea why except that it seems everyone in the neighbourhood orders delivery - go there around 7pm and the phone doesn't stop ringing. Service is friendly and fast. Decor is not trendy or upscale but it's clean, white tablecloths, etc. And you'll have to ask for chopsticks (that's the mangiacake clientele, not an indication of the food or restaurant's philosophy). Best chinese in midtown by a wide margin.
