This restaurant has very good Chinese food, particularly fresh seafood, at reasonable prices. We started with Mu-Shu Pork and then had Fresh prawns and baked pork. All were very good, but the prawns were incredible. Fresh, large and beautifully cooked. We were the only non-Asians in the restaurant and it was busy.

0 stars. These people are crooks and cheats. They would cheat their own fellow asian customers out of every penny possible. They make asians look bad. Again proof that most people are not good people and just crooked greedy selfish [--], that would stab their own mom in the back for money. Went to dinner here for Chinese New Years,... more
