"Relax in a cozy updated but old style type of Chinese restaurant. Subdued lighting, soft music, a phenomenally unique carved wooden table, and a drink mixing station off to the side set the mood upon entering. Playing into the nostalgic feel, I expected a little bowl of fried wonton strips to dip into duck sauce and hot mustard, but alas, none came. For a few cents, they should consider adding that--it 's akin to tortilla chips at Mexican restaurants--something to nosh on while deciding what to order. Same for offering up some hot tea in those little pots and tiny cups--I mean, if we 're conjuring the Good Old Days, why not? I ordered a classic Mai Tai, although I wish the straw would 've been paper instead of plastic, but the paper parasol was classic paper and wood: yay! It was perfect. Our server, Julie, was attentive and so warm and friendly that our entire experience was enhanced. PoPo Platter was my nibble-my-meal memory lane choice. There 's something about making your skewered treats sizzle on a tiny hibachi grill! The filled wontons could 've used more filling and the crab would more honestly be labeled krab. The selection would be enhanced by adding in traditional shrimp toast by replacing one of the filled wonton items. My partner 's pork, chicken, shrimp combo meal satisfied him and he said he 'd gladly order it again. For some reason, we didn 't get fortune cookies, but I thought of it on the way out and asked host Zack who quickly handed me 2 in cellophane. When we got out to the car, I handed one over and then looked down at mine and it was only broken bits with no fortune. Obviously a packaging flaw at the factory, but it 's a good thing I 'm not superstitious!"

"NK Score 6.5 10 6 10 Furniture Ambience 7 10 Food Quality 6 10 Prices Services Other Ratings Hidden _____________________________________________ BASIC INFO Tiny Restaurant, Mostly Delivery Usually Empty, Little Waiting Time Decent Foods 8.00 14.00 Uses Thin Styrofoam Plates, Meh Homemade Style Foods, Chinese Midtown Prices, Good Service Convenient Parking Spaces _____________________________________________ Atmosphere Really tiny little restaurant with almost nothing inside, probably not a good idea to dine in, but they do have good delivery service takeout. _____________________________________________ Food Quality Mongolian Beef 9.95 : Not bad, has an interesting sweet and sour flavor that's soft to the tongue. Also, the beef used was pretty basic, but the mixture of scallions, carrots, and onions make the dish a whole lot better. Ok price and portion for Midtown. Curry Chicken 9.25 : A good load of vegetables and chicken, but lacking a little on curry portions. The flavor is alright, kinda has a homemade Chinese dish feel to it. Ok to try, but not that amazing. Green Bean Chicken 9.25 : Decent chicken and green beans, but the flavor didn't really kick in. Wouldn't recommend this dish, but it's ok to try. _____________________________________________ Price Service Prices are pretty average for a Midtown restaurant, but the styrofoam plates they use are a little disappointing. Possibly a decent place to order delivery as the portions and prices are manageable. Delivery service is pretty good, they're fast and usually on time. _____________________________________________ Recommendations: Mongolian Beef, pretty good dish with a homemade type of feel and flavor.
