In Pasadena for a wedding, we ended our visit with a wonderful dinner at this storefront neighborhood restaurant that was a short walk from the Courtyard Marriott (and from the Holly Metro station). It happened to be on the same evening as a massive U2 concert at the Rose Bowl, and some diners were on their way there after fueling... more

If you approach this on its own terms (i.e. westernised Chinese), you can enjoy some really fine cuisine. The real signature is the subtle flavour combinations. I go there whenever I'm staying in Pasadena (twice a year). It hasn't evolved in the years I've been going, but the quality has stayed consistently good. The seafood dim sum starters are excellent,... more

Definitely one of the best among the westernized, gentrified Chinese food places. Far superior to PF Chang's, though the menu is still diluted to be white-friendly. more

This was horrible! We had to leave because there were cockroaches along the wall. The food was very bad. The owners must have cheated on their Zagat rating. Avoid this place. more

Really good gourmet Chinese food. We had the seafood dim sum appetizer and sweet and sour soup to start our meal and both were outstanding. We had Kung Pao Shrimp, also excellent and a garlic spinach dish that my husband described as "to-die-for", along with yummy, but sinfully crunchy beef. I can't wait to go back. Definitely my favorite Chinese... more
