Place filled up Saturday at lunch time.

I ordered the won ton soup.  You get 8 won tons with some bok choy.  Bok choy was crisp and fresh.  Loved the flavor.

Won tons were a mixture of shrimp and pork.  Loved the flavor.  Soup was seasoned just the way I like with salt and maybe some msg.

I also tried the black pepper udon noodles with chicken.  Dish was bursting with black pepper flavor.  A bit too much for me.  I’d like this dish with maybe 70% less black pepper.  Udon noodles were soft and had a mild flavor I liked.  Chicken was tender and moist.

Staff was nice and the won ton soup was excellent.

2nd visit.  I found the downside to the online ordering.  Normally I’d ask the wait staff to make changes to my order like no garlic on my chicken wings.  With their online ordering there was no option to remove the garlic.  So I figured I’d brush off the garlic when my order came out.  Sadly for me the garlic powder had adhered to the wings.  I loved the thin layer of crunchy batter and the juicy wings.  Loved the mild fried flavor.  These would be great tasting wings without the garlic powder.

Pork chow mein.  Alot of the places I go to would list this dish under lo mein.  I liked the ingredients in this dish.  Mild flavored noodles.  Crunchy cabbage.  Bean sprouts with their mild flavor.  Tender pork.  Sadly the amount of pork was low and this dish was mostly noodles.  What I didn’t like was the heavy handed application of soy sauce.  I couldn’t really taste the ingredients.

I’d probably love this dish if I could order it with 25% of the normal amount of soy sauce.

Next time I visit I’ll stick with the won ton soup.  Kirk of mmm-yoso!!! has visited too.
