    Pork chop and rice, sausage and rice

    Craving an old fashion smoke? This is the spot ! Hidden gem in Va Beach. Been around for years

    Apparently this place is a community staple and to me the staple must have been used or broken. I checked out some reviews to be fair, but was not feeling the look inside. I mean one door was blocked from being open, the kitchen was a bit messy, and it just wasn't an inviting place for a sit down experience. The food was alright in quality. I ordered a soup which was warm and the entree was rather full in the container but needed more seasoning. It was worth a try just not a place I'd wanna try again.

    Vegetable lomein

    My food was pretty good today. I ordered veggie lomein, shrimp roll & chicken wings. I highly recommend the lomein & the egg roll. They're not oily and always taste fresh.

    Egg Drop Soup, Vegetable Pancit, Egg Roll
    Kaitlin A.

    I would give it a solid 5/5 just for the vegetable egg rolls alone. They're honestly the best I've ever had probably in my life. Sometimes they can taste a little oily, but the flavor overall makes me not care. The crispness, the thickness, the flavors, it all just makes me want to eat 10 of them. The egg drop soup is pretty mediocre, I recommend the hot and sour soup instead. It's very tame in spice level in case you were worried, and it also has meat in it and is a meat based broth, in case you're vegetarian. The soups also all come with wonton chips you can put in it. They're pretty flavorless, but add a nice texture to the dish. The vegetable pancit is really nice, I have no idea what it's supposed to taste like seeing as I've only had it from here, but it tastes oily and good to me. The flavors all vibe together well. The lo-mein noodles are a bit chewy in my opinion, not really my thing, but my dad seems to enjoy it. I'm gonna try more things from here seeing as it's so close to home, I love chinese, and the food portions are really good. I definitely recommend coming here, despite it's dated look, the food really is worth it!

    I ordered Shrimp lo mein, chicken with garlic sauce plate and steamed dumplings. I'll start with the low hanging fruit, the steamed dumplings are delicious! There is just a little bit of sweetness in the soy sauce that comes with it that makes them perfect. Can't stop eating them! The garlic chicken plate is a great deal that will serve two hungry adults!

    Ming's "Pork Yat-A-Mein". Completely inedible unless you like noodles with ketchup and raw onions.

A sweet soy sauce/oyster sauce taste. The Peking duck is very good, skin is crispy. The char siu pork is also very flavorful. THE WALNUT SHRIMP, it's always a winner. This is my husband's favorite. The white sauce just pairs so well with fried shrimp. The dumplings and Rangoons are thick. The dumplings are covered in sweet soy sauce. Very tasty. The pork belly was crispy just like Filipino lechon. I really enjoyed the custard buns. I do love that they have dim sum available to order all day. We have been here many times, and the dishes are always very good. They put a lot on the plate. This is definitely a place for family style. A must try!! We will be back.

I called earlier in the day to see if we should make reservations, but was told they wouldn't be busy. Well, we got there and while they had plenty of tables at 6:30PM, but 7PM that place was completely packed! They had lots of carry-out orders happening too, which all made the kitchen a little slow. We ordered many dishes to share and all started coming out one after another over the next hour until the beef & broccoli was the last dish. Again, I attribute the slowness of the kitchen to their being so busy. At least all the food that came out was very fresh, tasty, and piping hot. Some interesting items that were quite good were their potatoes and green peppers. This dish is something I've never seen before but was pretty good! It features long julienned potatoes that they clearly soak in water before wok'ing with the peppers - that was all that was in the dish, but it was still tasty. Their Fish in Chili Oil & Bean Sprouts was really tasty and fresh! The fish is flounder. Their spicy wontons in chili oil were very popular with our group too. Service here was friendly too and helpful. Like I said, we tried many items, so many more than I just outlined and all were nice. I'd definitely return for a slightly more elevated Chinese menu from what you get at the typical Chinese-American joints.

While the exterior of the establishment appears quite understated and traditional, the interior is an absolute masterpiece utterly breathtaking from the moment you cross the threshold. My friend had very wisely arranged a reservation for me in advance. As I was dining solo tonight, I chose a beautifully convenient, intimate table that allowed me to fully take in the surroundings. The attention to detail here is extraordinary; the serene atmosphere, the curated decor, and even the traditional Chinese attire worn by the staff create a thoroughly immersive and sophisticated experience. I found it deeply admirable. The hospitality was nothing short of impeccable. A wonderfully gracious waiter welcomed me with immense warmth and escorted me to my seat, demonstrating a top-tier standard of service throughout the evening. To begin, I treated myself to a Lychee Cocktail my absolute favorite and it was mixed to perfection. Following a most pleasant conversation with my waiter, I decided on the Soup Dumplings for my main course. They were a absolute revelation extraordinarily fresh, delicate, and bursting with rich, complex flavors. It is no exaggeration to say that this establishment feels like a hidden paradise rediscovered. Between the flawless service, the stunning ambiance, and the culinary execution, it receives full marks from me. A magnificent experience

I found maybe 4 at most. It was also disappointing most of the sauce was on the bottom. So it's imperative you stir everything from bottom up upon receiving the order. The top layer tasted like it had barely any seasonings because of it. I wish I had known the meal came with copious amounts of mushrooms. I otherwise would have specifically requested the order be made without the them. I am not a big fan of mushrooms and especially the fragrant kind like the shiitake variety. I feel like I had mouthfuls of mushrooms in each bite and that's all I tasted. Perhaps I will order something else they are more known for the next time I believe they specialize in Szechuan cuisine.

My family and I (5 people) came in to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday dinner and there was nobody but us in the restaurant. The first thing I noticed was the server. He was dressed in jeans, hooded sweatshirt, a beanie and had a toothpick in his mouth. A bit out of the ordinary but to each their own for proper attire in what I would deem a upscale-ish restaurant. The real issue was him taking our order, seemed rushed. As we were deliberating and figuring out what we wanted. My girlfriend was talking about the scallion bubble pancakes. He came over and said, "I overheard you said the scallion pancakes, did you want to put in that order?" My girlfriend said no, she wanted everything to come out all at once. He said ok and then we walked off. Next thing we know, the pancakes came out WAY ahead of everything else we ordered. By like 15 minutes at least. When my girlfriend said something about it, the waiter said, he said outright " I never heard her say not to order them, she never said anything, and they are out right now". No apology, no I'll go ahead and fix that...nothing. When we we on the way out, we talked to the owner about the experience and the only thing he mentioned was that, the server was new and it's hard to find good employees because they revolve so quickly. Which wasn't really an answer at all. It was definitely a 180 degree turn from the first experience we had here which was 5 stars all around. I think given the experience, we unfortunately won't be coming back
