Owners are very sweet. Attentive bar staff. Karoake on Wednesdays. Amazing salt &pepper chicken. Stiff drinks at good prices. Places like this are what make Ballard/Seattle great!

Everyone is very nice. Any time I am feeling a cold coming on, ginger chicken 5* makes me all good. They use ginger like a vegetable in the dish and it makes me happy.

The food is okay I'm a big fan of the old "Moon Temple " on 45th and Meridian. Although the food is good, it doesn't come close to my old place. The cocktails are fabulous and so is the bartender. Lots of parking spaces.

My husband and I come here everyday for lunch. He wants nothing else and you get more food here for lunch then you do at McDonald's for the same price.

I order from here pretty typically and the food is always outstanding. It’s also my go to place to order on Christmas which I did tonight and despite some delays in the orders (due to a huge number of orders) their service is incredible the workers are kind and helpful and yet again the food is 10/10. My favorite Chinese place in Seattle I wish them all the best this Merry Christmas.

Loved this spot. The food is super on point. If you are looking for the classic Chinese American dishes. Their execution is flawless. We had fried rice and Mongolian beef. And NEVER SKIP the GREEN BEANS, they are so fresh and that great garlic flavor. LOVED my experience here. Super nice wait staff also. Really in tune with their local customers and nice to new customers.

Best Chinese food in Seattle so far. They kept staying with the integrity and authenticity of Chinese cuisine yet be able to offer some American-Chinese food. Their soups are always good. Also, they have a bar attached to it. If alcohol beverages are the goal, it is great place to get drink with yum food. The interior can be updated a little bit. But the tables and chairs maintaining in a good condition. Update: went back foe the lunch special. The food is as good as dinner with smaller portion and cheaper price. Great for lunch break if you work in Ballard.

We stopped in to get take out and the staff were friendly and welcoming. We sat at the bar to order and wait for our food and the bartender made us feel like regulars. The food was delicious.

The food is good (kungpao chicken) but BEWARE that their soups have pork broth. The egg drop soup is not vegetarian and there is no description of it not being vegetarian on door dash / Uber eats. I did call to confirm with the restaurant so they did tell me, so this is more on food descriptions than anything and should be updated.

Great little Chinese place. Love that they were open on Labor Day. But we get take out from them frequently. And they actually remembered me and asked me about a customization that I usually make and forgot to enter when I ordered. Great service. Wonderful food!

the portions here are insaneo style! i got the beef fried rice. the food is probably just what you're expecting, which means it's good. but the portioning really makes this place worth your buck, i had leftovers for days. service nice as well.

This is my father's favorite restaurant. The staff knows him and if I pick up a carry out order they always ask after my folks. I love the food, but I prefer carry out to dinner in.

This place is such a neighborhood gem. Every single thing is just so delicious. Great service and reasonable prices for gigantic portions! If you are hungry for that old-fashioned Chinese restaurant experience, where the food is plentiful and perfect without all the posh décor, this is your place.

The service was top notch. The best and kindest I have ever had. The food came so very quickly and tasted amazing. The server was very kind and suggested the pan fried noodles over the chow mein and I have never had a better time. Definitely favor the Hong Kong style noodles. I will be coming back many times to try the food here.

I really like this place. They have really good food, and they are really reasonably priced - especially compared to some of the restaurants downtown. I think their food is better than most of the places downtown as well. The people that work there are very nice, helpful and friendly. Definitely one of my top ten places to go out to eat in Seattle.
