Jordan M: I love the spicy peanut noodles. And of course the bao are great. Kung pao chicken is my favorite.
Time Out Chicago: Pot stickers are fine; better to go with the Thai curry-chicken rice bowl with its yellow curry. Or just stick with the bao, steamed buns stuffed with fillings such as slightly spicy kung pao chicken. Read more.
Stephen Lemoine: Great food. The kung pao chicken bun and Mongolian beef buns are great
