    This is my family's go-to spot for northern Chinese food. You have the option to either order in person or through a QR code/online menu that you scan at the table. The dishes come out fairly quickly and are all very good. Their food is made up of a lot of simple ingredients that are put together into very tasty and satisfying dishes. As a side note, if you order anything with leeks in it, they will give you a generous amount of them in the dish. The restaurant is for the most part clean and they use disposable utensils. There have been several occasions where I've gone and either parts of the table or the chairs were sticky. This last time that we went, there was a family with a dog sitting on one of the chairs and the dog was eating off of the chair which didn't seem the most sanitary.

    Fantastic place. Was craving dumplings for breakfast and saw they were open and decided to give them a try. Glad I did. Got the house dumplings. Soft and juicy and a delicious chili garlic sauce but wasn't too spicy. Very fast service and nice people. You order on your phone with a QR code. Not the biggest place and I can see it getting crowded at peak hours. But it's big enough to hold a decent amount of people Will definitely be back

    We actually ordered this for an office lunch through DoorDash. We have some employees that wanted authentic Chinese food for the lunar new year and this place was chosen. We had about 10 or so entrées which were well packed when they arrived. Some of those items included the pork bun, scallion pancake, kung pao chicken, and wonton noodle soup. The spicy chili dumpling were the star of the show. All of the items tasted pretty good except we found the broth in the two soups that we ordered very bland. We probably would try a different soup. One of our orders included the soy milk which the person who ordered it said was pretty good. We did not visit the actual location inside, so I can't comment on the interior or parking. We probably would order again from this restaurant.

    The location in Irvine is good. The inside is clean and spacious. The menu is hands free as is the ordering and paying. If you do not wish to use their hands free system they are happy to accommodate. The staff is friendly and very happy to make recommendations based on popularity or your tastes. There is a crepe station at the front where you can watch them make your crepe if you like. You can go for lunch as there are many item menus but I was told they are "known for" their breakfast items. Ordered their regional food including the savory crepe, pork and pickled veggie buns and the house special dumplings. Oh and a yea egg because I haven't had one in a while I can't decide which I liked better the bun or the dumplings. Either way I left full and happy!
