My parents really wanted to try this place out after my dad heard some pretty good reviews from a friend. It isnt located in a convenient restaurant area place, so you do have to drive out to El Monte if youre not in the area. A pretty small restaurant with maybe about 10 or less tables. They have lunch specials that range from $5.99 and up and if you dine in, they give you a large bowl of soup! The dishes came out quite slow. We actually got each one, almost finished it, before getting the next. The overall quality wasnt bad though. We ordered the chinese broccoli sauteed with diced fish (not sure if thats the English name) - good dish but not enough of the fish. The house special chicken wasnt as tasty as other places (Tasty Garden, etc). The chicken was warm and tasted like it had been overcooked! Usually this type of chicken is served cold/lukewarm. The two redeeming dishes were the roasted duck and the roasted pork belly. The roasted pork belly is a must try. Small pieces of really really good pork belly with just the right amount of pork, the pork fat and the crispiness from the skin. You didnt even need the BBQ sauce! And the roasted duck (which came really really late because they said they needed to cook it extra in the oven or something) was also really good. A pretty big plate of duck (more than Sam Woos) and the skin was crispy and the meat was tender. The sauce wasnt too flavorful, but still a good dish. We came in around 1 on Saturday and the restaurant was pretty empty. But after we sat down, a lot of different tables came in, too! They only accept cash. The service could be a bit friendlier, (I guess Im used to people saying "thank you! come again soon! after walking out whereas the workers just stared at us as we left) and the dishes could be served in a timelier manner, but I definitely recommend the pork belly and roasted duck!
