Disappointing Duck and Pork - All Fat!
My experience at the restaurant was quite disappointing. The lady at the counter, where you can get duck and rice plates, seemed to give smaller portions if you weren't paying close attention. I received three pieces of duck that were nothing but fat, and four pieces of pork that were also entirely fat. I was charged $13 for this. When I tried to explain the issue, she stated she didn't speak English. The place frankly sucks.

Big Portions, Salty Pork, Good Soup
My experience at this restaurant involved trying their Beef Fried Rice, which came in a big portion that could be shared by two people. However, it lacked taste. The Roasted Pork Belly was also a big portion, but it was salty, and the skin wasn't crispy. Overall, it was just okay. The Seaweed Soup was really good with a good taste, and it was free. The service was just normal, and the atmosphere was also just normal.

Good Value, Mixed Food Quality
My experience at this restaurant offered good value for money, with decent portion sizes relative to the price. The free soup was okay, though it had a slightly unusual smell. While the roasted pork was tender and the Fujian fried rice was great, the sesame chicken was disappointingly rubbery and I would not recommend it. The beef tomato dish was good but was missing eggs. Overall, it seems you get what you pay for.

Quick, Nice, and Good Value!
My experience at this restaurant has been consistently positive. I love the service and their food, which is always quick. The people who work there are nice, and the price is good. Recently, I've been getting takeout, and their food was still good. I even got to try food I normally don't eat. Their customer service is.

Wrong Price and Old Food
My experience at this restaurant was disappointing due to issues with both pricing and food quality. They charged the wrong price; it was supposed to be $11 per lb but they charged me $14. I advise checking your price tag before paying. Additionally, they served me old food. If you decide to try it, be sure to check your price tag before paying.

Delicious Chinese BBQ, Must-Try Pork Belly!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The Chinese BBQ was high quality. If you're unsure what to order or don't speak Chinese, I highly recommend the fried pork belly and the soy sauce chicken. Be prepared to eat around bones with the soy sauce chicken, but it's incredibly delicious! The pork belly is a unique treat, like a cross between chicharrones and bacon – if you don't find it yummy, I don't know what to tell you 😂.

Fabulous Duck Addition!
My experience at the restaurant was fabulous. Although we didn't initially order the Duck, the server brought it, and it was good. I'm glad she added it to our bill. 😁
