  This place is honestly pretty great. The kung pao chicken was the star for me — the peanuts were super crispy and it had just the right kick. Everything came out really fast too, didn't have to wait around forever which was a win. Prices are super reasonable, totally affordable even if you're not trying to splurge. The whole place was clean and the staff were actually friendly — had questions about the menu and they were happy to help. Overall a really comfy vibe, I'd definitely come back.
