Reviews
- Parker_14Tried a few Huaiyang dishes here — the soft eel noodles were silky and tender, and the sauce really brought out the flavor, super comforting. We got a private room which was nice, plus it had its own bathroom which was super convenient for a dinner with friends. Staff was friendly, food came out fast, didn't have to wait long at all. Honestly had a great meal overall, would definitely consider coming back here for the next get-together.
