    Went for Mother's Day and I love everything about it. The food was delicious, and the service was good. Personally, I like having a lot of time to decide what I want to eat, and that's what they allowed me to do. It was a very nice experience.

    This restaurant left us with some mixed feelings, which resulted in us taking a star off. Starting from the positives, we can say that the food was delicious and the hot green tea was also great. We tried egg drop soup, gyoza, shrimp lo main, and house special platter, which all were very well-prepared and tasted amazing. The food was also brought pretty much momentarily. The portions are large, so there is plenty of leftovers, which you can take home. The negative aspect was the service. The waitress was completely indifferent and seemed to be hyper rushed, even though the restaurant wasn’t even full, and there were a lot of other waitresses and workers walking around. She also did not come to the table to check on us, and wasn’t friendly during the limited interactions we had with her. While we were still eating she brought to-go boxes and the check without even saying anything. Lastly, they did not have Thai iced tea in stock, but it’s not a serious problem. Overall, we had a nice experience, but it was not outstanding, thus is undeserving of 5 stars.

    I’ve been coming to this Chinese restaurant for years, and my most recent visit reminded me why it’s stayed one of my go-to spots. The first thing I noticed was the renovation. The place looks refreshed and thoughtfully updated, giving it a warmer, more modern vibe without losing the comfort I’ve always liked about it. I’ll be honest, I did have a moment of sticker shock at the price increase, but with everything costing more these days, it felt understandable; especially considering what you get. My meal came with a side salad this time, which was a new touch and a nice surprise. The real highlight, though, was the entrée. It came out quickly, piping hot, and tasted super fresh. And the portion? Massive. The kind of serving where you’re already planning leftovers before you’re halfway through the plate. For the quality and amount of food, it was absolutely worth the price. Overall, this visit was an easy reminder that they’re still doing things right through improving the space, keeping the food consistently great, and delivering real value. I’ll definitely keep coming back. Loved it

    Great service and delicious food! A bit pricey, but totally worth it. Best egg drop soup in Utah.
