A very small family restaurant so there's limited indoor seating, but the food is absolutely amazing. I always come here with my Chinese family and they order, so I don't know the names of any of the dishes. I will say I have yet to have a bad experience here between the prompt service and great value for authentic Chinese food.

You get exactly what you want: good affordable food, direct & blunt service, and side eyes from the locals.

We stumbled upon this little restaurant, and it turned out to be a very pleasant surprise. The steamed fish was incredibly fresh, practically melting in the mouth. The congee with carp fish was also delicious. We tried the curry beef stew with potatoes and carrots, which turned out to be a hit with our group of teenagers, who are usually hard to please. The rice noodle pancake, served with a dipping sauce of beef, egg white, and vegetables, was absolutely delicious. The service was also excellent. We will definitely return to try more of their dishes.

This review for take-out only and specific to the lunar new year special- their "poon choi"/pen cai, which is a traditional Cantonese new years festival meal that consists of multiple layers of different ingredients. Second year in a row that our family of 4 have ordered from them, it takes the stress of cooking nye dinner off everyone's shoulders, they have a 6 person and 10 person option; the 6 person one was just right for 4 adults. Ingredients were very fresh and delicious. Easy ordering and pick up process: order and pay deposit, then pick up on designated day and time frame, pay small deposit for the giant metal bowl that's returned when you return it to the restaurant. Traditional home cooking without actually having to do the cooking and cleaning- just a bit of lugging bc it's HEAVY,(it's pre-assembled). Highly recommend!

Very authentic Chinese dishes cooked to very high standards. For those who know real Chinese cooking -- not Chinese-American cooking, which has its points but is not the real thing -- this place is a gem.

Visited China Town for Chinese New Year (February) Lady Chow was packed so we knew it would be good. Sadly they were out of the rice noodles and shrimp dumplings. What we did have was still very good. Eaten: Spicy eggplant with pork Soup dumplings Pan fried noodles- not what I expected them to be and they were amazing. They have mushrooms,green onion and sesame seeds. So good we didn't even get a picture.

I came here because I really wanted to eat fried rice.Since I was alone, I only ordered one item, but I would like to order other menu items as well.I couldn't finish all the fried rice, so I had to take it home.
