The clay pot here is legit! Every time we order the clay pot dish with the crispy rice in the bottom, all other restaurants give us just regular rice sitting in a clay pot. But this place actually has the crispy rice on the bottom.
Not sure why there are so many negative reviews but we thought the food was legit. The serving sizes were generous and the food was rather delicious.
Tomato beef. 5/5. Comforting smooth tomato based sweet and sour sauce with tender beef slices.
Curry beef. 4/5. Japanese style curry with beef pieces.
Clay pot. 5/5!! My favorite dish here. Filled with goodies like delicious Chinese sausage. Crispy rice on bottom was on point. Toasted but not burnt. Need to add a generous amount of the sauce that comes on the side in a bottle, but it was SO DELICIOUS! Would definitely recommend!!
Price was on point (really really affordable) and the flavor was on point. Couldn't ask for more. -

Came here for lunch with parents on a Monday. Good amount of people in there where we had to share a big table with another couple. The place could be a little cleaner but Is on par for a Chinese restaurant like this. We got the 3 items for $25 and every dish was good! Some were a bit salty so we shared a bowl of rice which we try to not too much of. My dad next time we could try asking them to cut down on the amount of salt. The food came out quickly and was very fresh and hot!
Here's what we ordered:
Salted fish with chicken tofu clay pot
Chicken with string beans
Mongolian beef
We'll be back again! I saw their Hong Kong style chow mein and it was huge and very crispy looking! -

Clay pot rice dishes are delicious. Rude waitress, not very clean here. We did not finish our complementary soup and she took it away. Like are you going to service it to another table EWWW. Not a very restaurant. They sure need improvement. Not sure if I am coming back.

In terms of taste and value, this place is top-notch. Last time I was here though, our server had his AirPods in, which was a little rude. But the service is usually quick, efficient, and friendly. I recommend the fried fish, clay pot, and the green beans with chicken. It's a great spot to take a large group so you can order a lot of food and try a bit of each.

Great neighborhood spot for a great price with easy parking. Portions are huge and their 3 items for $22.95 including soup and pudding can't be beat. We ordered 2 dishes and had enough leftovers for the next evening. If you are a student at USF, this place is a great bargain.
This is a family restaurant and you will find Chinese families here most nights. I prefer their Beef Chow fun, braised string beans with pork and their claypot dishes with eggplant!
