"The menu is extensive, offering a variety of options for every palate. Don't hesitate to try something new; you might discover a delightful surprise. We always kick off our meal with the scallion pancakes, which are perfectly fried. Personally, I enjoy the spicy crispy fried pork or shrimp. The wood ear mushroom salad is a delicious burst of umami flavor. This restaurant is perfect for a group of friends who are eager to share dishes. You'll find plenty of new flavors if you're accustomed to a Western diet. However, the service can be inconsistent. When I dine with someone who speaks Mandarin, the service tends to be much more attentive, lively, and friendly. On the other hand, if I'm dining without a Mandarin speaker, the service can be slow and somewhat brusque. The atmosphere isn't particularly remarkable, but it's comfortable enough. As for vegetarian options, there are plenty to choose from."
