Food was delicious.
They walked past our table with the chow mein and it smelled so good we had to order it.
It did not disappoint.
Soup dumplings were delicious as was the honey sesame chicken. Family run.
Small.
Only a few tables that were full before we got there and after we left.
Constant to go orders being picked up.
Was cash only.
We will come back.

As soon as you walk in the restaurant, you know you’re in for some good eating.
The decorations and music have that family business charm that makes you feel comfortable and nostalgic.
And the food lives up to those lofty expectations.
Each dumpling looks hand made with care and has that home made taste you associate with your mother’s cooking.
I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant.
It had me grinning ear to ear as soon as I stepped in.
Please, please support this business and make them the neighborhood institution that they deserve to be.

Update: The staff refunded the order amount. I made a pickup order of sesame fried chicken and chose spicy level.
I appreciate that, despite my early arrival and multiple pickup orders from other clients, the staff prepared the takeout at their earliest convenience.
However, I was disappointed to see that when I opened the to-go bag, the plastic lid was broken.
I wasn’t sure if the broken piece was left in the kitchen / preparation area, because it was definitely not in the bag when I checked.
Alas, it was inside the food.
I unknowingly bit a chicken piece only to feel the plastic.
It was only a part of that plastic piece—who knows if I had eaten the rest of it already… I felt very uncomfortable I didn’t end up finishing the dish.
Additionally, the dish was not “spicy” that I opted for, so overall, quite a disappointing experience.
I wish the restaurant did a better job because this could’ve gotten dangerous.
I’m still uncomfortable just thinking about what I could’ve eaten.
Hope this doesn’t occur to anyone else.
