Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; generally available within two blocks after 9 pm, but limited during dinner rush.
Dress code: Casual — most guests come in hoodies or T-shirts after hours.
Noise level: Moderate — kitchen sounds and takeout chatter, but still fine for solo dining or quick conversation.
Weekend wait: 5–10 minutes depending on delivery orders in queue.
Weekday lunch: No wait — walk right up to the counter.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes — vegetable chow mein, tofu with mixed vegetables, and eggplant dishes available.
Vegan options: Limited — request no oyster sauce or egg; staff are familiar with vegan adjustments.
Gluten-free options: No dedicated gluten-free prep area; some dishes like steamed rice and sautéed vegetables are safe choices if cross-contact is not a concern.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Not ideal — it’s a takeout-centric setup with minimal seating and fluorescent lighting. Better for a casual late bite after drinks than a true date spot.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes — it’s counter-service only. Small dine-in tables are first-come, first-served but usually open late night.
Is it kid-friendly? Somewhat — fine for quick family takeout, but limited seating and late hours make it more adult-oriented after 9 pm.
Best For
Better for: Faster and cheaper than nearby full-service Chinese spots; ideal for last-minute takeout and consistent quality late at night.
Skip if: You’re seeking a sit-down experience, ambiance, or regional Chinese specialties — try Mission Chinese or San Tung instead.
