    Recommend Steamed Sea Bass! Very professional!
    "Yang Chow Pork Meat Balls" is  so so, if you ever had it in Zhenjiang, then don't try it here.
    "Stir Fried Chinese Mahogany with Eggs" is actually Mahogany omelet, I can understand the mahogany is expensive here, so the cook doesn't wanna use much, then why not just change the name~
    "Beef Flat Rice Noodle", not bad.
    The meat of "Braised Pork with Preserved Vege." is pretty nice.

    The atmosphere at this place is okay.  Just needed to put on some music, then it'll be lively.  The food here is pretty good.  The taste is less spicy than it should be..  It's a good thing for me.  The beef are pretty good.  The tea they serve you is just plain because it's been reused a lot of times.  Service is here is okay.  The girl in the front was busy cutting beans.  I would come here and eat again.

    Average food, not bad but nothing special either.  The onion pancake was a big disappointment, flavourless with hardly any green onion.  Dumplings and spring rolls were all cooked from frozen.  Prices are reasonable though.

    Solid traditional Chinese food at a good price. My wife is from Beijing and she will eat here quite happily. We have had fish dishes, dumplings, noodles, vegetables... you name it. The only limitation is the older building, decor and washrooms: upgrades would make a difference.

    The food for lunch is usually under 9 dollars. They do not use add much salt  as other places that's why you see people complaining about the seasoning. The sweet and sour pork is decent. Today I tried the Peking duck. It was not bad but I have had better.
