Overall I enjoyed this restaurant. The restaurant was clean and appeared to run efficiently. The food came out quickly and accurately. My particular waiter was quite efficient but to a level that the friendliness was lacking and that’s okay as I was there to eat and not have a discussion.

I went in not having very high expectations because the stairway leading down to the restaurant was littered with trash and there was a strong chemical smell when I entered the dining room. However, the food and service made up for it all. If you’ve ever been to a nice restaurant in China, you’ll notice that the cleanliness standards aren’t the same as they are in the United States. What I’ve discovered is that just like the Health Department, they restaurant owners mostly concern themselves with the back-of-the-house. Meaning that although the floors, chairs and seafood tanks were in desperate need of maintenance and cleaning, the food is where their focus is, and boy it did not disappoint. My husband, who is retired from building maintenance told me that the Health Department isn’t concerned with the cleanliness of the dining room as much as the kitchen because their main concern is food safety. The food was absolutely delicious and dare I say some of the best Chinese Food I’ve had in my life. The presention was average but the service was impeccable. They were very attentive, professional and welcoming. My recommendation is for a restaurant to change their Floris to vinyl or wood to help with cleanliness & saftey. The chairs could either be cleaned or have covers on the backs to keep debris from settling in between the slats. Otherwise we’ll done. The restaurant has space for events and the prices were actually pretty great. For instance, my dish crispy duck was only $13.99 and and very juicy. The beef was incredibly tender & tasty. The spring rolls were crispy, light and not greasy.

My husband and I had the Peking Duck with Chinese pancakes. They not only plated the pancakes stuffed like small crepes with the Peking Duck, they brought us all the rest of 1/2 of a duck cut up in nice sized pieces. It was delicious and perfectly cooked. We also had wonton soup as a starter. The Jasmine Green tea was made with loose tea, making it extra good. They even refilled our pot of tea as we drank it. The green beans and pork had a nice warm spice as well. I was glad to have the tea and white rice. The service was wonderful and the food was some of the best we’ve ever had. A little on the pricy side, but totally worth the cost. We completely devoured everything but the duck bones!

Came for an impromptu dinner date that ended up being beyond our expectations. We got the dim sum sampler, and the crab with black bean sauce. The crab was definitely the star of the show and although very messy to eat, it was extremely delicious. I had never had crab cooked in sauce like this and I was blown away. Our waitress was attentive and kind and also very busy so we did our best not to disturb her too often. We came in on a busy weekend night and got seated quickly. The atmosphere is nice and well lit. You could easily come here dressed up or down and find something to enjoy. The dim sum was good but nothing to write home about, a great place to go if you have a group to entertain who like different options/flavors

Food was decent but not the best version I’ve had of each dish. I liked how the Peking duck came with the skin pre-wrapped, but the duck itself still had a lot of bones. The honey walnut shrimp was good but on the sweet side. Beef chow fun was good, made with the right type of noodles. The egg drop soup and shitake mushroom with bok choy dish was mediocre. It was cool to see all the pictures with presidents who ate here, but overall food was average.

One of the best meals I had in Waikiki. Been here for 5 days and have eaten at several restaurants, and nothing stood out until now. Had the Spicy Shrimp. Garlic Ftied Jumbo Shrimp, and the Yang chow fried rice [Shrimp and BBQ pork). Everything was hot, fresh, and delicious.

The best Asian restaurant in Kalakaua Honolulu Hawaii area. The food taste good and great portion in serving. We dine here almost every night during our stay in Honolulu. They have friendly staffs. The area isn’t that big so you have to be there early dinner to have a seat.

A decent Chinese restaurant located at Kalakaua Ave which is across from Waikiki Beach. Friendly service and wide selections on the food menu. Had the crispy seafood noodle and remarkable delicious. The seafood was very fresh. Noodle was fried but not as greasy as many other places. The sauce wasn’t too thick and everything was done to my liking. It’s a little more expensive than other restaurants all because of its location. It’s better to go in a small group so that you can order more dishes. I would go back and try other dishes next time!
