I’d probably eat there everyday.
If I lived closer, I’d probably eat there everyday. The food is fantastic! My kids can’t get enough of it. Definitely love all the newly added fresh flowers through the restaurant. They’re so beautifully done. The new host, Logan, is a fresh of breath air to a place we’ve been going to for years. Wish hosts and hostesses at other restaurants could learn from this guy.

It's very solid
I have lived in the Denver metro for more than 6 years, yet I had never been to this place until recently. It’s very solid - probably among the best American Chinese restaurants in the south metro. Lots of longtime Denverites say that and I can now understand why. Food is definitely fresher and of higher quality.

Beautiful presentation & amazing food.
Had the cold noodles and chicken dumplings. Amazing, table side service was impressive! We also had sesame chicken and chicken chow meín. Beautiful presentation amazing food. I don't know why this place has a 4 for overall rating. The sérvice staff go above and beyond. I would kill for food this good in salt lake city. Our Chinese restaurants are not great. This place is great. Old eclectic decor. I will be back for a whole fish and more cold noodles won tons and dumplings.
