Reviews
- maverick_mambaCame here with my family to celebrate a birthday and it was honestly such a great pick. The place has a really nice vibe — cozy, warm, perfect for a special occasion. The food was legit, the roast duck had super crispy skin and tender meat, and the Hunan dishes were fresh and nicely spicy. We left super full and happy. The staff were so on top of things too, always swapping out plates and refilling tea without us even asking. Oh and they had live local singing going on which was a fun little surprise. Honestly just a really comfortable, easy experience all around. Definitely would come back for another celebration.
