In Short – This is a charming place that diverges slightly from your classic, homey Chinese restaurant. There's an enormous television set in the east corner of the restaurant.. The large space is usually packed, yet unhurried. The hot and sour soup comes in a mammoth bowl. The prawns with special salt prove crunchy. The Chinese beef will gently dissolve in your mouth with hardly any assistance from teeth.
Editor's Tips
- The Extras:
- There's a fish tank in the middle of the restaurant stocked with invertebrates just waiting to jump into your mouth.
- Know Before You Go:
- A sign near where the butcher hangs out cheerfully requests that you inform the cashier if you want your chicken with the head intact.

absolutely the best Chinese food i ever had!
by Bigmanfromtexas at Citysearch
it gets crazy busy after six so a reservation would be helpful, very fast service of food so eat your courses quick, very helpful staff, we had two soups, sea weed and wonton, both had awesome flavor, for the beef lover like me try the orange beef, my wife loved the sea scallops and the singapore noodles, most authentic chinese food in town..

most authentic chinese food in austin
by mikemart at Citysearch
there are many things on the menu that most americans have never heard of. if you want something that is not on the very extensive menu, just ask, they will make it for you!
for me, i LOVE the bbq pork and the bbq duck. these items have no equal anywhere in austin. maybe anywhere in the states!
service can be slow otherwise it is a 5 start joint.

Great Food, very friendly staff
by Rachelmom at Citysearch
This was some of the best food I had had in a while.
The staff was friendly and the seating was good. Try eating here and you will go back. After I ate there I was back 3 times in 1 week.

Terrible Customer Service AND Great Food All In One Place!!!
by Upperhand at Citysearch
Great food...but gets crowded & loud at times. Lets not forget the extremely terrible & poor customer service. Beware of Chinese female waitress, the tall one. I don't know her name and don't care to learn it. She has a tendency to be inattentive to customers, rude and over bills customers...BUT!!! she enjoys giving herself a nice fat gratuity for parties of 5, of which I personally believe she NEVER EVER, EVER deserves.
The sorriest part about the poor customer service is that it continues and the lack of ownership this restaurants owner/management neglects to take responsibility for & correct.
I give them one star only because I don't have the option of giving them ZERO STARS. I've made up my mind to only order take out from on.
