    I know it's not the most beautiful upkept restaurant bit it's certainly a great ma and pop place. The food is made fresh on thee spot, all there dishes are great and not heavy, because i get an upset stomach when i eat at fast food restaurants, who still does that anyway. the kun pow here is my favorite. The owner will come and chill and have a conversation while our food is being prepared. Please come by and support these good ol folks. They deserve it This is still a good chineese restaurant.

    I have been looking for a good Chinese food restaurant and I FOUND IT Food was FABULOUS I had the shrimp fried rice, black chicken bean sauce, shrimp in oyster sauce, and noodles. Perfection!! Service: it's a family style restaurant so it's small but owner was really nice and attentive. Go try this place!

    Everything was good! Me and my family always order from here, customer service is great now!

    My absolute favorite other than my Mom's wonton soup.

    A small, hidden, modest gem, that deserves much attention! I have been ordering take out from this restaurant for the past couple of months and I have yet to be disappointed. Made to order. Fresh, well prepared Chinese food. From the wor wonton soup, to the fried rice, to the cream cheese wontons...everything has been so delicious and hit the spot on the dot! Service has always been friendly and efficient. Price point and portion sizes are perfect for a very hungry one or for two to happily share.

    Its kinda hidden in the plaza towards the back.

    Its bomb here. And not expensive. Its always fast and affordable. Id recommend the beef chop suey. And house special fried rice.

Ordered the potstickers, the spicy wontons, the beef noodle soup, and then jiajiang noodles. In order of preference, it is the spicy wontons, the jiajiang noodles, the potstickers, and then the beef noodle soup. What they got right with the spicy wontons was the sauce - spiced, kinda spicy, sour, and also sweet. I could use that sauce on everything. The jiajiang noodles was just a good combo of cool from the cucumbers and the noodles and minced meat were good. The beef noodle soup was fine but I think the soup could've packed a bigger punch. It felt almost watered down but I say the piece of beef were great. Overall, the meal came out to around $65 and it is pretty standard now but $13 for 8 wontons or 8 potstickers just feels a bit nuts still. Overall though, it was a solid meal and I'd recommend coming

However, I am thoroughly impressed by Hengry. ​I prefer my food simple, fresh, and mild but never bland, and they went above and beyond to accommodate my preferences.

You can tell he truly cares about the dining experience and makes you feel like a special guest from the moment you walk in. ​I will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu!

Hengry isn't your typical Chinese restaurant, the creative decor alone is worth the visit. Eclectic and cozy with stunning pop art and mid-century seating, it feels more like an art gallery than a restaurant. And the food? Absolutely addicting. The Guizhou-Szechuan fusion dishes are packed with bold, authentic flavors. The sour soup fish is a nostalgic delight: tangy, spicy, and perfectly balanced. The kung pao chicken is juicy with a unique Sichuan twist that sets it apart from anywhere else. Leo, the owner, is a visionary with a story as unique as his tattoos. You can tell he's poured his heart into this place.

Mama Lu's is known for their dumplings but they also serve Chinese dishes such as beef chow fun, roasted duck, fried fish fillet, and more.

The service was good, My grandma's friend apparently scoped out the place before hand and put her card down for the table. Sneaky sneaky, she put down one of the trickiest plays. The place has a very high ceiling, Spacious doesn't seem like it had a lot of tables, but it wasn't packed.

It's pretty good here and they have complimentary refills! They're known for their rice noodle rolls here and you can order them, along with their small dim sum menu, all day long. The wonton noodles here were just $13.98! They come with 5 large wontons and vegetables over wonton noodles. I always recommend adding chili oil. The steamed spareribs on steamed rice have some bones, just like the ones you find at dim sum. But there's a lot of meat in the steamed rice bowl for a single person.

    I had a wonderful meal at Mr Dragon Noodle House. It's located in a plaza surrounded by other…read morerestaurants and stores, and there's plenty of parking spaces in the lot. The popcorn chicken is a must - the portion was huge and the mild flavor was top notch. The beef noodle soup was also solid. It came with a generous amount of noodles and big chunks of flavorful beef. Lastly, the regular soup dumplings pass exceptionally well with the ginger, vinegar, soy sauce condiment. Service was quick, friendly, and attentive. Atmosphere inside was hip and vibey. Overall, this is a great restaurant and I'd highly recommend others to try their dishes.

    This was my first visit to Mr. Dragon Noodle House…read more I stopped by for dinner on a Saturday night, and one thing became obvious almost immediately... This place is busy. The dining room was absolutely packed. Every table was full, people were waiting near the entrance for seats, and the energy inside was loud and lively. If you're looking for a bustling restaurant with lots of activity, you'll enjoy it. Personally... I'm more of a quiet-corner kind of diner. Unfortunately, I didn't find my usual quiet corner this time, but I managed to find a corner, and that was good enough. The restaurant has a modern Asian-inspired interior with black brick accents, warm wood furniture, hanging pendant lights, and a striking red geometric ceiling. It feels contemporary and spacious, although with a full dining room, it quickly becomes energetic and noisy. As soon as I walked in, a waiter handed me a menu along with an order slip to fill out while I waited for a table. It was efficient, but it also made the service feel less personal than I usually prefer. Once seated, everything moved very quickly. Considering how busy they were, I understand why, but I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being rushed through my meal. Now onto the food. Hot Tea ($2.00) Simple, warm, and exactly what I wanted on a busy evening. Xiao Long Bao (8) ($13.00) The dumplings arrived steaming hot filled with juicy pork and flavorful broth. They were the highlight of my meal. Spicy Beef Ramen ($16.00) Large chunks of beef sat in a rich, vibrant red broth alongside ramen noodles, vegetables, and a hard-boiled egg. The beef, however, was not as tender as it looked. Unfortunately, the broth was simply too spicy for my liking. The spice overwhelmed many of the other flavors, making it difficult for me to fully enjoy the dish. Subtotal: $31.00 Tax: $3.02 Total: $41.02, including tax and a $7.00 tip. Overall, the food was decent. The soup dumplings were the one dish that I enjoyed.
