"This old-school Chinese restaurant delivers on traditional Chinese-American dishes served family style, however its famous black pepper wings stand out above the rest. Perfectly crispy with just the right amount of salt and pepper and chopped green onion, it is no surprise these wings are considered the best in town by many." - Mario A. Cortez
