Food was great. Service was attentive but perhaps a bit overeager. Main courses came out well before appetizers.

Delicious flavor and great quality for take-out. I'd recommend exploring the menu and asking advice on what to order beyond the standard choices!

Pretty good Chinese food in the area. We went on a weeknight so it was pretty quiet in general but regardless the service was great and food came out quickly. We started with the veggie dumplings and the scallion pancake. I liked the dumplings but the pancakes were too oily for me. I ordered the chicken teriyaki as an entree which was good and filling

The food was outstanding! Much better than usual Chinese restaurants. We went during the New Year's celebrations, so it was very energized and upbeat. In spite of there being a full house, the service was fine.

OK, honestly, a lot better than what we were expecting for a random place we found off the highway in Fairfield, CT on Thanksgiving Day. Because our family celebrates the holiday on Saturday, it's been our tradition to get Asian food on the Thursday, usually in Boston. We were in NYC in the morning for the parade and after that whole hot mess of humanity, we just wanted to hit the road and thought that we would make it to Boston for dinner, but got hungry on the way and ended up here. Long story longer, we were roughly one of two tables when we sat down to eat around 5:00 pm. The decor is basically like a Wayfair showroom, so we sat down with a healthy dose of skepticism, but the food was actually pretty good. Our daughter got steamed pork dumplings that she was very happy with and the dry-fried green beans were also better than expected. The cumin lamb was wonderfully spicy and definitely the best dish of the night. Honestly, the only disappointing dish was the wonton soup. The wontons themselves were fine, but the broth was bland and oily. Service was clipped but efficient. The place started picking up with louder/ruder parties that we had no desire to be around, so we're glad that we left when we did. 3.5 stars, rounding up in the spirit of the holidays. We'll never be back again, but this was a randomly fun experience in the middle of Wherever, Connecticut.

Absolutely great hospitality and customer service! We had a fantabulous dinner. We were seated outside and we were a party of 30. The patio had heaters but the weather was so beautiful we didn't need them. The stringed lights add a nice ambiance to the patio as well as some well place trees. The hostess and servers were fabulous. We were all able to order and be served at the same time and quickly as well. I had the seafood fried rice. It had shrimp, scallop, fried egg, sliced fish, squid and vegetables. It was delicious. There was a lot a flavor. You can taste the fried egg and the veggies prominently right along with seafood. The rice was cooked just right and moist and the rice was not overworked over fried. The rice was loose and not clumped. I also got Cumin flavored spareribs but didn't care for those at all. They were dry and the flavor was off they tasted a bit old. We also had vegetable steamed dumplings that were delicious and flavorful. Overall it was a great meal
