Came on a Thursday night at 9pm and we had to wait a few minutes for a table of 3. This place was still packed after normal dinner hours. This place is my new favorite place for Chinese food. I've been here in the past, but coming this time reconfirmed it's status. Their sweet and sour pork was my favorite dish as it had the perfect crisp. Their beef ho fun also had a great wok flavour, which is rare. Solid food and not too expensive. Highly recommend and would come back.

Went there on Friday at 6:00. Didn’t need to wait for 2-person seating. Eel rice is good for 4 to 6 people, eel tofu soup is included in the price . Eel tofu soup is very white peppery. Steamed chicken is yummy, garlic spareribs is super tasty. Cost me $98 including 10 % tips on the bill by default . Called to reserve for 2 - person seating, but told us they have been asking 4 - person seating to queue up upon arrival too. I think they only accept reservations for big tables and they said no need to call and reserve the eel rice. Just place order upon ordering. So it is different from the reviews I have read.

Super underrated Cantonese restaurant. Long wait lines - don't be fooled by the low Google ratings at all. This place is legendary. This is the classic restaurant that's all substance and no frills. I can see why regular western clientele might be turned off as the interior is quite dingy, but the food is to die for, at really affordable prices to boot. I personally loved the stir fried Chinese cauliflower and deep fried oysters in sauce.

Fantastic food at great prices. Be aware there is a long wait for it. The pepper stir fried with eel is probably the best I’ve ever had. The scallion chicken is cooked just right where it’s smooth, not raw, and snappy skin. Fresh tasting oysters for the clay pot unlike other places. The only dish that is so so is the sweet and sour pork. Otherwise, fantastic service and food at very reasonable prices.

tasty but portion seems smaller than before, personally suggest whole fish to serve and not cutting into pieces when they suggest you to do so, spareribs is always my fav here
