    I was hoping new management would elevate the food but it didn't, at least so far. I got the beef chow fun, stewed beef and congee and it was good but not great. I'll give it a couple more tries. Service was ok.

    Won Ton soup was meh, while the pork dish pictured was much better.
    Andrew A.

    This is not the same as the Good Taste in Portland Chinatown or on SE 82nd, but the owners are related. The Won Ton soup was average, while the BBQ pork had that off-putting bright pink color. Overall, a classic 3-Star. Staff are very nice.

    Roast pork belly
    John S.

    Came upon this little spot tuck in the dark. Standard Chinese eats with a splash of generousity. The Super Bowl was tasty. Lots of meat for this carnivore! Bbq pork, roast duck, roast pork belly and won tons! Yeah!!!!!! Also had to grab a side of roasted pork belly...because....well if their pork belly ain't crispy and delicious, I'll keep hunting for a better spot. But they nailed it. Juicy, fatty, crispy pork belly. The kind your doctor screams at you about as you casually give them the middle finger in your head!. Come try this place if you are in the mood for some Chinese. Woooooooo!

    Decent American Chinese restaurant in Vancouver, WA. Good option if we want something nearby. The chow fun was the best thing we ordered. Roast duck and egg plant were okay.

    Crispy pan fried noodles with chicken (to go)

    I have often shopped at the market next door but had never stopped in here. I was so very excited when I saw the menu that I had very high expectations and I was not disappointed at all. I had the salt fish friend rice and my partner had the crispy fried noodles with chicken. The salt fish friend rice was delicious. It's not super common to find locally, and the rice was perfect. Every grain was separate, it wasn't gummy or mushy, it wasn't overly salty or fishy, but perfect. It was eggy and delicious, and piping hot. The crispy noodles were packed separately so they wouldn't get soggy on the drive home (we took things to go) and they were amazing. The staff were very friendly, and the decor inside was cozy and clean, with a vibe that was well suited for family style dining. We went around lunch time for a to-go order. Plus they have peking duck, and ginger onion chicken...which we will definitely have to try next time we eat in person. The tripe on the menu looks good too. This place is a hidden gem. Do not pass it up!

    Not sure why I haven't stopped here before. It's right next to where I buy live crab. Stopped in today for lunch specials. Super friendly and fast service. Run by a couple and they get busy. Between 1130 and noon all the tables filled up so get there when they open or after the lunch rush. My food was perfect. Fresh, hot, flavorful. I want to try other dishes I saw coming from the kitchen and they all looked wonderful. Entree, fried rice, spring roll, soup, hot tea, and water, was $15 out the door including tip.

    Curry Chicken
    Dawn P.

    A few years ago, my favorite local Chinese food restaurant went out of business. I've been searching for a new place to lay claim to, this might be it......the jury is still out. This order was a "to go" order, so I can't speak to the interior or the staff. I had a simple order, the appetizer platter and the Curry Chicken. The appetizer platter had two spring rolls, four crab puffs, four tempura fried shrimp and a huge portion of BBQ pork. I started with the crab puffs which were not great? I suspect had I eaten them right out of the fryer, they would've knocked my socks off! The flavor was good, but they were sweaty and chewy- not in a good way. They did not travel well! The tempura fried shrimp were A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!! So light and so good! They were so good, I could've eaten ten more easily. The spring rolls were also very delicious. I appreciate that the fried foods weren't dripping grease. The BBQ pork was typical. Not great, not bad. I didn't get the tangy red sauce I'm accustomed to, but instead had sweet and sour sauce and the hot mustard. There was zero fat, something I truly appreciate! The Curry Chicken was not at all what I expected. The menu picture shows an appetizing and appealing of mostly chicken with some red pepper showing. What I received was a pile of food dominated by huge chunks of green pepper, which I DETEST! It's not enough to pick them out as they contaminate everything they come in contact with. Also had large pieces of celery and another yucky (I know, I'm quite sophisticated!) water chestnuts. The chicken looked great and was all lean white breast meat. It had a very mild curry flavor and a family sized portion to boot! I would try it again, having the offending veggies removed. All in all, I was pleased and next time will eat in the restaurant.

    It's my go-to roast duck and stir fry place in Vancouver. They are Cantonese and serve decent porridge, wonton soup, stir fried veggies, etc. the beef tripe was just okay, but everything else is decent and affordable too. I will try their fried rice and Peking duck sometime soon!

    Chicken Trio
    Taylor S.

    I'm so pleased that I ate here! I had the Chicken Trio- lemon chicken, cashew chicken and general tso chicken. All three were delicious! In fact, I devoured almost the entire thing (which was family size) NO REGRETS! The restaurant was impeccably clean and the server was as kind and polite as can be. Going forward, whenever work brings me to the greater Vancouver/Portland area I will definitely be dining here!

    Food was good but $21 after tax is insane, and it wasn't nearly enough. Are the owners trying to buy lambos or something?

It seems new…read moreownership has taken over, not sure if this is a continuation of prior issues or caused from it. Either way as others have noted the service is extremely s - l - o - w. Firstly, I want to preface this by saying the one waitress they have tending the bar, tables, and everything else is amazing. She should not be doing all that on her own, and that's a lack of planning allowing that. She's friendly, helpful, and does what she can, but she's only one person. Secondly, the food is often way too oily. This can range from the appetizers, to some of the sandwiches/burgers, and even veggies. Lastly, I used to love coming here for the salads. They were fresh, large/filling, and full of toppings. Now? A $25+ salad with some added protein comes in a regular sized salad bowl you'd have in your home which is seemingly new with the recent change in management. Definitely not worth the price. I don't say all this to disparage the restaurant or employees. I want this place to succeed because I like the location, and think it's a fun spot to frequent. Changes are needed though if they're going to continue to charge the amount of money for the lengthy waits, and quality/quantity of the food being served.

We got to our table and were tended to right away by the host and the waitress. I ordered a large 22 ounce size Stein of German beer and my son enjoyed one of their cocktail specialties, The Black Forrest, which consisted of , Jägermeister , whiskey, chocolate, and cream, topped off with chocolate sprinkles on the top. Very tasty. The wife had an Arnold Palmer, well because, someone had to drive home! LOL! The food was absolutely outstanding! My son had the Bavarian feast which is a sampling of all different types of German food. His first time having German food and he loved it. My wife ordered the chicken schnitzel and she liked it a lot. I ordered the Hungarian Jäger Schnitzel and it was outstanding. Not to mention the cheese fondue with bread and sausage and it was a perfect evening with the family.

Prices are reasonable, especially now, with how many restaurants are price gouging. One little thing: the soy sauce they use is really great quality and tastes so much better than what we've had before....need to ask the brand next time. All in all this was a tasty meal and we would not hesitate to drop by again.
