Reviews
- crude_phoenixI ordered the minced pork steamed egg from Xian De Lai — portion was really generous and it tasted great. The braised river eel was crispy on the outside, super tender inside, with a rich sauce that you can tell uses quality ingredients. The stir-fry was cooked just right and the seafood tasted really fresh. The place was pretty packed but the staff still took time to remind people to keep their voices down, which I thought was thoughtful. Eating solo here didn't feel awkward at all — it's clean and chill, perfect if you just want a quiet meal.
