I had dinner here tonight and ordered a grilled fish. The server told us it would take about 30 minutes, and we said okay. After waiting for an entire hour, he came back and told us they couldn’t make it because it hadn’t even been started. He said his position was lower than the kitchen staff and that he couldn’t tell them what to cook.
We asked to speak with the manager, but the manager also seemed completely indifferent. He said everything had to be queued and there was nothing they could do. When we asked for a solution, he said they could start making it now and we could keep waiting. When we pointed out that the server had told us 30 minutes, he said the server was wrong. They kept shifting the blame and showed absolutely no apology.
We hadn’t eaten all day and were already prepared to wait 30 minutes for this grilled fish. Instead, we waited for an hour only to be told we wouldn’t even get the food — and were treated with a terrible attitude. If zero stars were an option, I would give zero.

I would give them a zero if there is an option.
We went there last night. We asked how long the grilled fish would take before ordering and were told 30 minutes. After waiting over an hour, we were informed it hadn’t even been started.
When we asked for a manager, no one came. The front desk said the server had “misspoken,” but there was no apology or accountability. We were told that if we still wanted the dish, we would have to start over and wait again.
Delays happen, but honesty and basic customer respect should not. We chose to leave.

We arrived very close to closing. We had dry braised beef, rice noodles with beef, shrimp hargow, hot and sour soup and sesame balls. They accommodated gluten free and egg allergy (even remade a dish at no charge because I forgot to note egg allergy). Great service and really tasty food. We retuned after many years and it was as good as we remember.

Great place for lunch. Some American Asian food as well as some more traditional stuff.

The atmosphere: It’s a relaxed dinning room that’s a bit on the smaller side, maybe 10 tables total? Medium noise level. The sushi bar overlooks the dinning area so you can see sushi being made. Bathrooms are available downstairs. The dinning room showed slight signs of wear, there was a missing light fixture with wires hanging out, and the tables have clear marks of usage.
The staff: We saw only one waitress on a weekend during lunch, she was quiet, pleasant, and very attentive to our needs.
The food: Was simply amazing. So much flavor in every dish! You MUST try the soup dumplings (Xiao Long Bao), I think you get 6 dumplings and they are incredibly flavorful.
The dishes were pretty big, definitely a hearty portion, you won’t leave hungry.
General Tso’s was impressive as well, despite being a American-Chinese food staple.
The cucumber salad was very mellow, cool and pleasant, it broke the Sichuan pepper heat nicely.
All the vegetables used in the dishes seemed incredibly fresh.
The sushi was amazing as well, I think this was the crispiest shrimp tempura I’ve ever had.
Price: was very reasonable, the basic veggie rolls were all $7, I’m used to seeing them for $5 however. The specialty rolls were all around $17 ($14-20) which was not bad, I’ve seen average specialty rolls as high as $18-20. All entrees were around $15.
This was an amazing find, and we’ll definitely go back.

I got 3 items that I’ve loved at every Chinese restaurant I’ve ever been to. I liked none of them. Egg rolls, for the first time in my life, were the size of spring rolls. Almost no vegetables but did have mushy pork. Crab Rangoon filling was so runny (not just when hot) it flowed out. General Tsao Chicken was over breaded, and the chicken was over done and chewy. Will never go back. Waitress never smiled. Odd.

Food was fantastic. The steamed pork dumplings were great. Sushi was great and the beef short rib in black pepper sauce was especially good. Would definitely order from here again. The service had some hiccups. Felt a bit forgotten about but otherwise really happy.

Sushi was great! Soup dumplings sadly had no soup in them

Would give 0 stars if I could. I ordered through DoorDash for lunch and they didn’t tell me until I got to the restaurant on my lunch break that I would be charged an extra $10 for Chicken Fried rice and have to wait another 10 – 15 minutes for it to be done. Disappointing and inconvenient. Will come back to my review after I eat to give that information. They could have called and let me know this, but they did not, what a disappointment.

Our first choice in downtown Northampton for Chinese food – both eat in or take out. Friendly staff. Ample room.
