I visited because of the overall positive reviews on this site. I thought the food was OK. I ordered the lunch special with sweet and sour pork. I liked the fried rice and egg blossom soup. I also ordered sweet and sour pork to go. It was OK. Kind of tough. I noticed several customers ordered large bowls of soup. Several customers seemed to be regulars. I would like to return and try something more traditional like soup. Some reviews said the service was awful. I had excellent service. The restaurant has a bit of an attitude. Next to the register is a sign that says “Anything extra costs extra!”, or something like that.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

This is my third time here and the quality of the food and service have been excellent every time. I’ve come during dinner rushes, and also during slower periods and it’s been such a pleasure every time. My favorite order is definitely the Village Chop Suey over chow mien. It’s loaded with delicious veggies, chicken, pork, shrimp, and a savory sauce all atop noodles. I love their house made chili oil so I was recommended to try the dish made medium spicy today and there’s no going back for me now. Absolutely delish, the perfect kick, depth of flavor, and freshness from the veggies. A favorite of ours is also the fried shrimp. Love this place and we will continue to return and support. Thank you!

It's an older place that could use some upgrades, but the food is good. The prices are high and they charge for everything extra. I understand but some items are ridiculous. My husband wanted extra wontons in his soup and they charged like 3.00 per wonton. Maybe consider a bulk price for like 3, 6, etc. But a 3.00 each ... no thank you.
