Reviews
- mocha_figOh my god, the big chicken feet here are INSANE. I'm pretty sure they get braised first and then roasted, and they come out all chewy and a little crispy on the outside — texture is so good. The grilled oysters are hands down the best bang for your buck. Oysters are the right size this time of year, super plump and meaty, and the garlic topping is perfect. The lamb chop and meat skewers — honestly every little skewer is worth a try, all tasty, no misses here. The tofu skin skewers were a little salty for me but that might just be personal taste. The razor clams were spicy stir-fried, super meaty, though a few had some grit. The vibe: parking is super easy which is a huge plus, you can just relax and eat. They've got an upstairs and downstairs, with about 8 four-person tables on the lower floor. Service was really great too — nothing tastes pre-made, tons of that smoky wok flavor. Definitely coming back.
