From Citysearch
A beautifully carved wooden screen and goldfish-filled fountain inject a dash of elegance into the otherwise casual dining room. A screened-in porch and a few sidewalk tables provide additional seating for neighborhood locals and small groups.
Accessible Chinese standards prove consistent but make for few surprises. Dim sum standouts include a tasty tunip cake and sweet and savory baked barbecue pork bun. The menu is stocked with plenty of the usual suspects--including kung pao chicken and Peking duck--but mains like beef with winter melon and the Half Moon Bay Harvest, a heaping serving of prawns, scallops, fish and calamari, liven up the offerings. Sweet endings include sugary sesame puffs filled with red bean paste and fresh mango pudding.
