This is an great restaurant for authentic Chinese dishes if you dine in. Ask the waiters what produce is in season/freshly arrived and they will have wonderful recommendations for you, they can make any dietary accommodations. Some of their dishes can run spicy or oily (I’m coming from a Taiwanese/Shanghainese/Cantonese palate), but that is in line with regional cooking styles of parts of China (ex. Sichuan, Hunan), and the staff are more than happy to adjust dishes to your taste so long as you specify what you’re looking for. Recommend their seafood, veggie dishes, soups, dry pots. Prices are higher than they were previously but they are in-line with other post-Covid restaurant prices. The atmosphere is a bit quirky with One Piece decor around, but there is always an abundance of space/seats and staff is friendly and responsive. Having seen other reviews, I’m not sure about the fusion/non-authentic Chinese dishes, as that’s not what I eat. I’m also not sure about how well the food translates to take out as most authentic Chinese dishes are best enjoyed fresh off the stove. If you’re familiar with authentic Chinese food and go in with the expectation of a typical authentic Chinese restaurant setting, you won’t be disappointed!

Tried this place for the first time through Uber eats. Got the Kung Pao chicken and spicy chicken fried rice. The food was tasty and spicy. But had lot of soya sauce, sweet syrup, oil and lot of oil lol the fried rice was good though but quantity of chicken was like very very less. Hardly saw some chicken in that dishes lol but it was substituted with vegetables instead. I don’t understand why chicken is included in the dish name lol. 20 bucks for each of those dishes, the quantity and quality was not worth the price. Very disappointed and wish it was better.

This place is a hidden gem! The staff was friendly and helpful and made sure to accommodate for our allergies by letting us know which items were gluten free. The food was phenomenal (we loved the mushroom broth) send very reasonably priced! We will absolutely be coming back for dinner again.

Variety of delicious dishes and aromatic flavors, the food was lovely and beautifully presented/plated. The menu offers entrées, sushi, and hot pot options. The staff, although understaffed, are very friendly. The atmosphere is decent, yet the highlight is the food and socializing with friends.

We loved the food and they have a whole section in the menu for veggie/tofu dishes which is nice for vegetarians. They also have lunch specials but they seem to be offered only until 3pm. The service was fast, we got our food in like 15 min since ordering. The price is reasonable given the ambience and food. We plan on coming back!

This restaurant is truly a Hidden Gem. Atmosphere is fantastic with decorations from anime shows, mostly One Piece, all over the walls. Very friendly staff and amazing drinks. But most importantly some of the most delicious Asian food around. Great sushi and fantastic hot pot plus unforgetable dumplings. I highly reccomend you try the homemade lamb dumplings!!!
