About

Upstairs on the second floor, this small Chinese restaurant serves home-style dishes such as Home-Style Tofu and sautéed potato, green pepper, and eggplant, with generous portions and quick service. The room is informal and often quiet while takeout orders are prepared; ask clearly which dishes are vegan, since the menu also lists egg and seafood items and communication may rely on a translation app.
