Excellent hot (spicy!) food, and vegetarian options. Their dishes with lemon grass are fabulous and their tofu is good in anything. Order it with light oil for the freshest experience! Free chocolate fortune cookie for desert. :) More

Wow! Really well flavored and the brown rice made it even better. The mongolian beef was delicious and the meat was very good without any fatty sections. Very good hot and sour soup with a nice kick to it. Kung pao chicken had a delicious sauce. Everything tasted fresh and yummy! More

Favorites are the delicious potstickers, beef chow fun and a really wonderful Won Ton Soup. All of the vegetables are crisp, fresh and splendid in their dishes. A nice casual dining experience. Only negative is that... More
