Reviews

  Got the stir-fried beef with yellow chili and wow, the beef was sliced thick but cooked just right — chewy without being dry, super savory, and went ridiculously well with rice. The place itself was clean, wooden tables, little lanterns hanging around, gave off that cozy Hunan hole-in-the-wall vibe. Portions were really generous, honestly didn't even realize I finished two bowls of rice. Staff was friendly and food came out fast. Heads up though, it's definitely on the spicy side but it didn't hit my stomach too hard. If you're into Hunan food, this spot is worth a try.
