When the crab was served, a strong unpleasant odor filled the air. It was extremely off-putting, indicating that the crab was dead. Consuming dead crab is dangerous and should be avoided! Food rating: 1/5.

This restaurant offers genuine Hunan cuisine as described by the locals. The dishes can be quite spicy, but you have the option to customize the heat level for each meal. The service is friendly and prompt.

The food was average. We ordered shrimp with potato noodles, but it didn't taste fresh.

This is the best Chinese food in the Bay Area—no joke! We often choose it as our go-to dining spot when we’re too lazy to cook.

The food was genuinely authentic, although the service and atmosphere were just average. Our meals arrived just five minutes after placing our order. I would certainly recommend this spot for anyone who appreciates real cuisine. Just be ready for the spicy dishes!
