Delicious and super flavorful food!! Definitely one of if not my favorite Chinese place I’ve ever tried. Such a gem in an unexpected location. I keep going back for the mapo tofu and tried the hot and spicy fish and the chicken dry pot today which I loved!

This is my favorite Chinese restaurant in Paoli. The appearance is very modest but the food is fantastic, service is really prompt, and they have lunch specials which are great value for money. I recommend the Dandan noodles or dry pepper style chicken for appetizers, and the hunan and kung pao chicken for entrées.

We've been here over 10 times, and is our go-to for Chinese food in the area. Ambiance is not fancy, but the food more than makes up for it. Every dish is always delicious (e.g., Westlake beef soup, string beans w/minced pork, chow fun, dry hot pots, sesame chicken, mapo tofu, etc.). A big plus is that the food comes out FAST so great when the kids are hungry! Prices are very reasonable, too.

Have been visiting this restaurants for more than 5 times now. We always have dinner here every time we come to Philadelphia. It never disappointed us. We always ordered 2 main dishes for 2 people. The food is very delicious and authentic with spice. The order comes out very fast. Service was great. The restaurant is always busy with a lot of customers.

We went to celebrate my mom’s 55th birthday party based on the good reviews. We had over 20 people and it was a huge disappointment. The servers and the owner were rude and cheap. They charge for take out containers $1 a piece. ( The lady said it’s too much and gave a nasty attitude). If you are going to do good business don’t be cheap. We didn’t feel welcome at all. The lady also said out loud you need to leave tip… When we already set a side money. After being seated less than 20 mins we were reminded that we have to eat fast because there was another party coming in soon. Overall would NOT recommend and we would not come back for sure. One and only time. For spending over $500 including tip and being treated like that? No thanks!! Food was nothing special, taste just like any other Asia
