Most Popular Items

Orange Chicken
"Me and my fiancé got the Orange chicken w/ white rice and it’s really good I was surprised. It’s not your typical orange chicken though, it has a garlic forward flavor and not overly sweet which we loved."
Popcorn Chicken
"The popcorn chicken is equivalent to Taiwanese fried chicken I've gotten at other places but with a more muted five spice and pepper taste."
Soup Dumplings
"I found the food to be excellent, the ingredients were fresh, and the dumplings were perfectly cooked. I've gone twice and get the 5 sampler every time."
