| - I went here for lunch today and it was a solid three star, but has the potential to be a 4-5 star place. The place was pretty empty at lunch and my friend and I were seated right away. We ordered a bunch of things to share. Here is my complaint number one: We ordered the dan dan noodles, potstickers, eggplant, and sesame pancakes....I asked the waitress if this was enough food for the two of us and she said no, the apps were very small.....and we ordered some wonton soup. Well this was ridiculous, we had enough food for 4 people, I don't know what she was talking about! I guess it gave us an opportunity to try a lot of things. Anyway, we received the dan dan noodles first. I thought they were a 3 star, ok, but nothing super special. They had a nice mild spiciness. I probably wouldn't get them again. Then we got the wonton soup. The soup was pretty par for the course as far as wonton soups go. Another 3 star dish. Next we got the potstickers and those were a definite 1-2 star item....they were like the frozen potstickers you get from trader joes. That is always such a disappointment. After that we got the yu xiang eggplant and THAT was a 5 star dish. The eggplant was very soft and had a good texture and it was extremely flavorful. I was happy we got it, but at this point we were realizing the huge amount of food that we ordered. So finally we get the sesame pancakes and those are probably a 4 star, they were good, but not the best I have ever had. I am sure that this place has more gems like the eggplant, and that I would need to come back to try some other things that would maybe bump up the rating for this place. Here is my second complaint: The service was awkward and slow. We sat around with the food sitting out for about 30 minutes before having to call someone over (who was just standing there looking at us) to ask for a box. Then again we waited for another 10 min or so to get our check. In the mean time, the girls who work there were just standing there or walking by our table to another one of the 3 tables that were full in the restaurant. Also, it kind of looks like people live in the back of this restaurant, there were couches, a tv, people just hanging out behind a partition. Finally, they left the doors to the place wide open letting in a massive amount of flies that bothered us throughout the meal....I don't love having flies all over my food and one actually died in my friend's noodles and she had to pick it out.... yikes. I would give this place another shot, but, I have to say, I wasn't thoroughly impressed today.
