It is in the same price-range as Golden Harbor (which I love), but in my opinion the food here is even better.\n\nWe were a party of 13, and were seated comfortably in the large table in the side room. The owner of the place took our orders, and she was wonderfully fun/sassy about it. She gave great recommendations, and would tell us if she thought we were making an unsuitable selection.\n\nCuisine highlights:\n- GARLIC SAUCE, anything in garlic sauce was delicious (beef, eggplant, etc)\n- Beijing duck (wraps had good texture, duck was cooked well, good sauces)\n- Crispy tofu (crispier coating than from Golden Harbor)\n- Fish with pine nuts (fish was battered and fried, and drizzled with a sweet sauce)\n- Steamed tilapia (very tender)\n- Scallion pancakes (owner served us two orders for free)\n- Kung Pao Tofu (all-around delicious)\n\nI had been skeptical of the place because of its location in the eerily-deserted Lincoln Square mall, but they renovated the place a few months back, and the ambience is great!\n\nMy only regret is, having left the area, I can no longer partake in this sumptuousness :(\n\nNOTE: Older reviews (pre-2011) for this place are likely dated, as management has since changed and they've renovated the interior. This place is definitely worth a try."^^ .
