Reviews
- Cory_2Honestly this place is such a hidden gem in the Nanyuan area. It's on Jingbei West Road, the storefront isn't huge but pretty easy to spot, and there's free parking right out front which was super convenient. Walking in I was actually kinda surprised by the vibe — fresh, elegant, and they have an open kitchen so you can see everything's clean which immediately put me at ease. Portions are really generous and the food is legit authentic. The roast duck was crispy outside and tender inside, the stinky mandarin fish was packed with flavor, and the sticky rice stuffed lotus root was so soft and coated in this amazing osmanthus sauce — all worth trying. The staff were really attentive and food came out fast. Great for family dinners or hanging out with friends, prices are pretty reasonable per person, overall felt like a really solid deal. If you're going on a weekend I'd say get there early or call ahead so you don't end up waiting for a table.
