It’s an almost fully self-service spot, which is great, but may not be what some are looking for. They have a number of great dishes and I love the flavor of their dumpling sauce.

The ambiance of this location is very warm and welcoming. The staff is always kind and efficient. If it’s your first time here, make sure to scan the QR code on the table and place your order from your phone. They have several dishes that are must trys. I recommend the Kung Pao Chicken or the Beef Soup. The Chinese scallion pancakes are also a good starter.

One of the best Chinese food places around the uci campus, these shopping plaza is filled with great food but this spot is fast and convenient. Food quality is great and price is extremely affordable even to student. Been eating too much American fast food so this spot is great to change it up. The service is self serve once u finished ordering. Loved the place is spacious and vibe is great. You can either dine in or order to go.
