    Ask for the little booth rooms. A curtain closes to make it even more private! The is supposed to be the oldest restaurant in China town

    Its reputation is well-deserved. Aside from being reasonable, the prawns are good. For dessert, try the sesame balls.

    They’re very rude to tourists & foreigners! 🙄 plus they add like 20% to your check. Our table just had 5 ppl. That’s ridic! Never again will we eat here. Food was ok, but the service was terrible.

    Cold food. And not good to begin with. If you came to this place - leave immediately. Worst restaurant experience ever.
