Diane Lucille SuarezDecember 4, 2015Minced pork with basil is #1, three cup chicken, beef with scallions. This place is shared tables, no frills, cheap, cheerful and authentic. Great spot for solo or group lunching and dining.UpvoteDownvote
Chris GampatMarch 8, 2018Besides what’s going on with the duck menu, the pork chops and bean curd are very good.

Kevin LiJuly 7, 2012This is by far the best kept secret in flushing. Try their "fly's head" or their 3 cup chicken. The "si gua" which is a Taiwanese melon is AMAZING. Hands down the best authentic fare in all of NYC.Upvote1Downvote
Christina C.February 24, 2013Good food. Gets packed during dinnertime. Three cup chicken is not salty & plump pieces of chicken. Pork with leek is yummy but watch out for the spicy peppers. Stinky tofu is good too.
