Description

Beneath dim lighting, the kitchen serves up spicy cumin lamb stir-fry, ginger chicken soup, and generous portions of Dapan Beef with ribbon noodles resembling traditional Chinese preparations. The menu also features curry lemon pepper wings and garlic-sautéed broccoli. Because the room is exceptionally compact, it is best suited for solo dining or quick takeout; a heavy volume of delivery orders can stretch the wait times. Spice levels lean gentle, so those with a high tolerance should request the maximum heat or ask for extra chili oil.
