    Wait stage was very friendly, food was delicious! We ordered a whole Peking duck which was more than enough for 4 people with rice & veggies. Pork fried rice didn’t really have pork, it was mostly fat. Only complaint. No room for desert!

    The food was delicious and of high quality. Not your average Chinese restaurant. I had lobster fried rice and soft shell crab entree. All 4 of us shared delicious appetizers. Our server was very attentive and helped us pick dishes. Noise level was low. All together a great choice We’ve been there before and always see Asians eating there, a sign of good Chinese food.

    A very enjoyable experience which was completely unexpected. Excellent Hot & Sour soup and delicious fried rice. The Peking Duck was prepared very well. Will definitely return to this hometown favorite with incredibly friendly service. You won’t go wrong here.

    We always enjoy dining here. I think the menu might be a bit different since our last visit but we focus on one dish…the Peking duck, which is so delicious. We shared pork bao to start. Then the Peking duck and an order of pork fried rice tha t was very very large. It is preferable to have more people so you can enjoy more tastes. The wine list is small but we found a nice white to wash down our food. And while the tables are not on top of each other, this visit and others we have been close enough to converse with another couple which of course makes it a bit more fun.

    Chili Crab was a wonderful experience. The service couldn’t have been better. It was a Saturday night and the kitchen was backed up by the server was constantly stopping by to update us. We had the calamari appetizer which was delicious but different than any we have had. The Peking Duck was one of the best we have had. Highly recommend ordering it. We had the boc choy with garlic. Very good but was better at the bottom where it sat in the sauce. We come to the area and stay for 5 weeks every year. Chili Crab is a definite for next year.

    I lived in China and this is one of the best Chinese restaurants I’ve been to. The spicy cucumber is the best I’ve had since Beijing. The dumplings are terrific. They really know how to cook here. As good or better than any Chinese restaurant I went to in New York when I lived there.
