My boyfriend took me to this place because he loved their sesame chicken. I was skeptical at first because it seemed like Americanized Chinese food, but it wasn’t entirely. It seemed like a hybrid of traditional Chinese food mixed in with American influences, something an ABC (American Born Chinese) like me would cook up if I decided to whip up something relating to my heritage. I really enjoyed their “Country Rice Chowder,” a dish my grandmother would frown upon because the ingredients are all scrambled in, making a colorful mess, but that’s something I always did with my food.

Their dishes are geared towards a more westernized palate, as they offer “fried calamari” and “mushu pork.”

My last visit wasn’t as memorable as the staff can be a bit rude, but I think it’s worth visiting at least once. Hopefully the tastiness of their food will make up for their service.
