The food is awesome the place is always clean . Four of my friends and i had lunch here and the bill was $34 . The price is right and the food is good. Sounds good to me .

Spicy diced chicken - for $1 extra they will give you white meat. Beware the dish is hot and will have you sweating :)

Brady Lee Hodge

Best Staff , Great Food! Reasonably Priced For HK! Happy Hour is the best! $5 Cocktails ! Try the Beverly Hills Iced Tea , just don't have too many!

The Corcoran Group

Stop in for a lightening fast meal before heading to MSG. The ambiance is very chic and the food is quite good – get the Beef and Broccoli .

Lauren Rodas

Portions are large... One thing that ticked us off was that our team were 12 ppl, we made the reservation a week ahead and the morning off, we called to confirm and when we got a small table

Great happy hour - 4-8pm, 50+ drinks for $4.50/$5! Food is good too - comes to your table almost immediately!

Scallion pancakes and the spicy diced chicken are great. This local spot beats out all of the over priced Asian fusion spots. Don't forget the $4 happy hour also

Wendy Astridge-Adams

Had the tangerine chicken , wonton soup and egg roll was delicious. Drinks $5 from 4-8pm the pom martini was great!
