Utterly delicious! My belly is left full and happy! Thank you to the owners for accommodating us right before closing 🙏 Sorry I have no pictures to share, we ate it too fast! But the serving was plentiful, a perfect and delicious night!

The food was nice for what we paid for. A decent casual meal. The staff was also accommodating allowed us to sit with our choice of table and helped me ordering a gluten free option.

The food is very affordable for the amount they give you. The soup broth is a little on the blander side and definitely not a Cantonese style. The chicken was decent. Good flavors but a little overdone. Great little spot for a quick fix.
