"I have never eaten in a better Chinese restaurant. The place is gorgeous adorned with fabulous exotic flower arrangements. Hospitality is evident by the warm greeting of the owner Cathy. The extensive menu can satisfy the pickiest person. The meal is served by a very professional waitstaff. Every dish is beautifully presented. The quality ingredients are well cooked with great flavors of varied spices and herbs. Even the ice cream is high quality and not the usual Chinese version of "ice crystal Pete". Our whole group thoroughly enjoyed this dining experience Will return very soon."

"No sense making a reservation for a Saturday night; I had an 8p rezzie for four and was finally seated at 8:25, and then still had to wait 15 minutes for a waiter. This wouldn't have been so bad if there was seating at the bar or an attentive bartender/hostess. Despite this, the food was very good. Next time, I'll just show up and hope for the best."
