I grew up in Costa Mesa and it was a two horse town in terms of Chinese food, Golden Dragon on Harbor by 19th street and the place behind 7-11 on Harbor and Mesa Verde.
So I was curious when I saw this big established looking place, oil change at Toyota made for the perfect excuse to walk over, since oil changes take 1.5 hours...
Ordered the egg rolls (sorry)
Hot and Sour soup
Dumplings (steamed)
Noodles with gravy(Chachiang Mein)
Soup was my favorite
the dumplings were not my favorite steamed- I will get pan fried or deep fried next time
egg rolls were veggie only and all the stuff came out first bite of each
Noodles with Gravy was interesting- I just don't know that it was exciting enough to order twice
Kimchi was kimchi...
The waitress armed up to me after I ate all the food mentioned above in its entirety.
My family and I decided to try out this restaurant tonight. The food was excellent. The best chinese food we have had in a long time. It was first quality, very fresh vegetables, prime tender meat. cooked to perfection. The Sweet and Sour Pork, was superb. Light and crispy. I took a year of chinese cooking classes just for fun and learned a lot and this place is wonderful. The help was very nice and attentive and the waitres even showed us the correct way to use chopstiks. You should have seen how fast I picked up my dumpling when my husband and son went after it. Even I was impressed. It was a great evening with great food! We were already talking about he next time we go back. We highly recommend it.
