We came on a Saturday night and the place was surprisingly empty. We ordered the following: Garlic bok choy: 9.5/10 - wouldn’t change a thing and even increased the flavor of the mixian Sautéed green bean: 10/10 well worth the price. Crab Rangoon mozerella sticks: 10/10 whoever thought of this is a genius. Highly recommended. Southern soul Bao Bun: 8/10 the bun was a little too thick. Carne asada fríes: 8.5/10 very good just wished the fries were crispier. Asada was well seasoned. Hot stone short rib mixian: 7/10 the broth was lacking body and the meat was unseasoned. Adding in the bok choy increased the flavor. The food is rather good but they lack foot traffic. I think this place needs better outdoor decor to attract the eye. We were looking on purpose and almost passed it. Not having

I wanna start by saying that the young lady that was working when I went to this restaurant last night was amazing. She was nice. She gave some good food advice that I’m sure saved me from being disappointed in what I was originally going to order. I also want to say it’s a nice little spot. Got a good vibe to it. However, I ordered takeout last night and if I’m being honest, it’s the worst Chinese food I’ve ever had in my life. I ordered the lemon grass ribs, absolute worst ribs I’ve ever had as you can see from the picture. They were dry overcooked under sauced completely underwhelming. I also ordered shrimp fried rice since the Carne Asada fried rice was not going to be made with the meat it’s usually made with and I ended up with this dry flame with rice with baby baby baby shrimp.

Food is great! 4 star because I do miss some of their old menu items, steak in the eye of the tiger is a tad overcook to me but overall the flavor was delicious. love that they kept the noodles! Service is great and very attentive! Love how they decorated.

Hidden Gem in Baltimore! On our drive back home from NYC, my wife and I stumbled across this amazing Asian restaurant in Baltimore—and wow, what a surprise! The standout dishes? The ribs and the potato dish—absolutely incredible. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender and packed with flavor, and the potato dish was unlike anything we’ve had before—crispy, savory, and perfectly seasoned. Easily the best we’ve had in a long time. What really made the experience even better was our waiter. Super friendly, welcoming, and really informative about the menu. He gave great recommendations and helped us understand some of the more unique dishes. We weren’t planning to stop in Baltimore, but now we have a reason to come back. My wife and I will definitely be returning!

My second time here and they didn’t skip a beat! Dayana and Zezou were excellent servers and the chef visited our table and thanked us for our service. We will definitely come back and check out their Premium AYCE menu
