Reviews
My family will be coming here from now on on nights that we don’t feel like cooking. Prices are very reasonable, especially considering how amazing the food tastes and how large the servings are. I hope they don’t change a thing in the coming years.
Usually when we order so many dishes at a place, we find a couple that are weaker than the others. That was not the case here. We might have had things that we favor a little more than others, but in terms of flavor and overall culinary excellence, they all were perfect in their own way. This place is truly a rare find!
I love it.
portion is big
the food came out fast and hot
price is reasonable and cheaper
compare to cherry hill or south jersey in general.
Food: so good. we got toothpick lamb, salt and pepper jumbo shrimp, stir fried cabbage (vinegar), thin sliced beef (brisket) in golden sour soup, and beef and tripe soup with radish. my favorite was the salt and pepper jumbo shrimp; perfect fry, good but not heavy seasoning, and the shrimps were nicely big, cleaned, and fried hard head-on (shells were crispy enough to eat and you get all the good stuff in the shrimp head). next best would be the thin sliced beef in golden sour soup; not as sour as you’d think (i love sour) but really hearty and satisfying with the beef and enoki mushrooms. the stir fried cabbage is a classic and they did it well (crunchy, flavorful); pork was nicely thin and tender. the toothpick lamb was good, nicely spiced, but didn’t wow me; it was fun to eat but not as tender as i’d prefer. the beef and tripe soup with radish was comforting, creamy, nicely opaque and milky, but overall didn’t wow me. Food was served in a good amount of time. I’d definitely return for to try their fried fish, soft shell crab, and cumin lamb.
Service: Friendly and communicative. Really attentive with water refills and even transferred one of our half eaten soups into a smalller bowl so our table surface had more space to accomodate dishes.
Atmosphere: Casual, clean, with a good amount of seating. They have a restroom available (I did not enter so I can’t comment on the cleanliness or ease of use). Good for groups, for sure.
100% would come back again.
Salt & Pepper Fried Frog this was good. Would have liked a little bigger pieces
Sautéed Eggplant with Green Beans well flavored. I liked that the eggplants were not falling apart. The skin was soft but not mushy
Mapo Tofu with minced meat we felt this was average. Not bad but would get something else instead next time to try
Spicy Chinese food, “Oh, I could die for you.”
There’s not many more food delights that I have than getting the lip tingling, mouth numbing sensation from Sichuan peppercorns and other hot chili’s. When I walked in and saw Lazy Susan’s on some of the tables, I knew I was in for an old school treat.
Chef Zhangs offers some of your Americanized classic Chinese dishes, but they also have items that you aren’t going to find at your typical spots. Some of these dishes include stir-fried intestines with hot peppers, spicy stir-fried kidneys, salt and pepper fried frogs, just to name a few.
Those dishes would be a little too adventurous for me to take on all by myself, but if I were to go with someone who has a comfort level eating those, I’d really like to try them and expand my horizons and give them a try!
Pictured here are the pork soup dumplings, toothpick lamb with dry red chili, and stir-fried sliced pork with hot pepper. Of course, I asked for everything extra spicy.
Everything was exquisite! The spicy heat levels were on point. I appreciate they took my request seriously. The toothpick lamb, the bite of pepper along with the ginger and garlic, oh my, it was just divine. The sliced pork (they asked if pork belly would be okay and I wasn’t going to say no) had at least 3 different types of peppers. I have a high spice tolerance, so I was still able to taste everything and enjoy.
This is some of the best Chinese food I may have ever had. It’s a spot I know I’m returning to next time I want legit Chinese cuisine.
Also, I have to note that they brew you fresh loose tea and not something from a tea bag. They don’t need bonus points from me, but they get it anyway. Lastly, I don’t want to overlook our servers who were so kind to answer any of my questions, patient while I overlooked the menu, and overall did a fantastic job. Please put Chef Zhang on your list of places to check out!
