I thoroughly enjoy this restaurant so much!!! Everyone I have brought to eat here has either become a full fledged customer themselves, or if not from the area, they have enjoyed it as much as my wife and I have. The service has ALWAYS been very minimal, but you are there to eat good food in a beach community, your not eating at the 4 Seasons. That said, if you need service, sit at the bar area, it will allow you to get there attention easier, and get more water, or whatever you required.

I wanted to try this one out with my mom and aunt. I was pleasantly surprised by the food taste and portions. Servers were really attentive and the price is on point. The place is a little tight but it might have been a club or bar at some point so it's

It's been here forever, it even burned down once! The salad is their signature dish but there are much better items on the menu. Ho Sum is always my Tuesday night choice. The staff are friendly but recently there was some confusion when members of my group paid separately, causing bills to be swapped when we paid in different cards and cash. Someone else ended up paying for a much less expensive meal in cash while I paid for theirs on the card and the waiter pocketed the cash difference. It was obvious, it was theft and it was fixed. After 15 years of attendance I won't be back for that specific reason,no matter how good the mu shu is.Parking: You have to really try to get parking within a block

Wow, drove by for years and finally ate here. Blown away how good the food is. Also a great value. We ordered the Ho Sum salad with chicken size large. Literally 4 people can share this. Also ordered the Mu Sho with pork. Also unbelievable how good of a value this place is. We will definitely be back!

Stopped for dinner because where we were going was closed for Halloween. Meals were bad. Not one decent dish out of the 6 we ordered.

The small combo salad is too big for one person. The lunch specials from 11am to 4pm is the best deal in the OC.Vegetarian options: They have a lot of vegetarian dishes.

Scraven some Asian cuisine or Chinese food. And came upon this place yesterday. It's a quaint little place that serves good Chinese food.Kid-friendliness: Small area, but you can be seeded in groups of 4.

Decided to pop in for a quick stack during happy hour. Very pleased with my dumplings and glass of wine. Although my server was a bit abrupt and not that friendly but I was a quick in and out customer.I would return again if I was in the area.

They charged me through their on line ordering, which I have a receipt for, and then demanded more money when I arrived. Is this some sort of bait and switch? I tried to call and speak with their manager but they wouldn’t call back.
