Good Chinese restaurant serving Yunnan style cuisine. Service is just OK but the food was very good. Restaurant can be crowded because the service is too slow. If you don’t mind the slow service, this is a great place to go. Prices are a little high, but the food is great.

A lovely Chinese restaurant in Lake Forest. It’s Yunnan cuisine which is like southern China. Their noodles are very good. The noodle portion is very large; for $15 a bowl, it can feed three of me. The servers are friendly. We ordered the meat wrap, which the server told us later that it’s the most popular amongst non-Chinese customers. We laughed so much because that’s our favorite dish. Nice atmosphere.

Good value with great service. All the things we ordered hit the spot. The restaurant is clean and would recommend to everyone who is looking for some authentic Chinese cuisine in the area! Don’t miss their counter featuring various side dishes (the shredded potatoes and sliced oyster mushrooms are personal favorites).

Third time eating at this restaurant — love their food.
But today I noticed something sneaky: their suggested tip is calculated after tax. So basically, they want me to tip on the tax too .
Sure, it’s only a dollar or two, but hey — honesty shouldn’t be taxed, right?
So I did my own math, tipped 18% before tax, and called it a day.

This is by far the best Yunnan rice noodle restaurant I’ve tried in North America including over 15 years living in Toronto, the capital of Chinese cuisine oversea. We ordered #1 and #9 noodle. The presentation and taste of #1 is great. My daughter is not very into spicy food and has been a picky eater. She loves #9 and finished it all. The pork kidney is also cooked at perfect time and temperature. Very juicy and tender. The knife skill to cut the kidney is top notch that you rarely see outside of China. It definitely helps to make it a beautiful and tasty dish. The portion of the cold fish appetizer is amazing. Well worth the money.

We had lunch here the other day. There is a lot of parking available. The restaurant itself is warm and inviting with plenty of seating inside.
We started with the fried rice cakes. The mochi-like rice cakescmixed eith black bean sauce, assorted vegetables and different types of meat was so delicious.
Next, we had the Xiao Long Bao. The dumplings were thin and packed with soup and filling. So good.
We then had the crossing-the-bridge rice noodles. The rich and creamy broth along with the thick rice noodles and an assortment of vegetables and meat made for a comforting dish.
The braised pork with buns was Next. The melt in your mouth pork belly and the warm and sweet buns were perfect I could have eaten this all by myself.
And to top it off, we got the smoked duck. Smoked to perfection, another dish I could have eaten all by myself.
Wonderful food and a friendly staff will make this your go to place for Chinese comfort food.

5-STARS because not only is the food tasty, it is priced reasonably and the workers are much more friendly and service-oriented than most Chinese restaurants.
The first time I walked in, one worker was enthusiastic about providing me samples of the vegetable cold side dishes.
This is the best Chinese Yunnan cuisine I’ve ever had. I will be returning here as much as I can!
I only wish I could make friends with some Chinese folks to try out more of the menu family style. Unfortunately I cannot find any Americans who are interested in eating here with me because they don’t want to explore outside the non-General Tso’s kind of “Chinese-American” food.

I love this place and have been coming ever since they opened. Their food is pretty good, and if you like strong flavor, I think you will like this place! I came here with my friends and family. All of them liked the food they ordered. I recently moved nearby here, and have been ordering takeout more often. We did dine in before, too. Their service was friendly and helpful! I think their service is better than many Chinese restaurants in OC.

First of all, the meal is delicious and genuine. I particularly like the assortment of cold appetizers available for perusal and selection at the counter. They use a lot of beef, and I think the beef noodle is above average. Servers are pleasant. I intend to visit frequently in the near future.
