    The food was ok but small portions and really expensive. This is not good value at all. I think they even charged us for tea. It is not elevated Chinese food or authentic Chinese food. Just overpriced

    Service was not very attentive. Food was OK but not great. A bit salty and oily but the servings were large.

    Went for Lunar New Year and staff was super friendly in suggesting dishes from the menu that I haven't tried before. All of them were awesome including a hot pot and a sweet desert soup. Besides, the eggplant in spicy garlic sauce and sauted wide noodles with seafood were some of the best I've ever had.

    The food was real disappointment measured with respect to previous visits. The meat in the sizzling short ribs was unchewable. It was quite a negative experience.

    This is one of my favorite restaurants in the Bay Area. They have excellent sea food dishes and the best hot and sour soup.

    Waiters should be more friendly and give more advice about the dishes. The food is very good.
