  Great hidden spot in Renton with really good prices for your standard Chinese fare.  All the classics can be found here, and like I said, the prices are really great.  I'd pick this place over something to the likes of Panda Express any day.  You'd get much more bang for the buck, and they're quick too, if you call and order ahead of time.  They have large tables so a family gathering for a birthday or other special occasion works here.  They will take reservations (though after you hang up, you might not be sure if the person on the other end really understood what you asked for).  
  
  Some of my favorite dishes are Mongolian Beef, Salt and Pepper Pork Chops, Beef Chow Fun (dry style), stir fried pea vines, and garlic green beans with ground pork.
  
  I like the convenience of the location, and there is always plenty of parking spaces, though some spaces are right next to the dumpster for that real authentic experience and smells!

  Love coming here for nostalgic Chinese cooking. They have a new owner and chef I believe so some of the dishes aren't the same as before (like my favorite bitternelon eggplant vermicelli dish) but the others are still on point. Definitely come here hungry and ready to eat family style.
  
  I recommend the quail, white chicken feet, salt and pepper smelt?, pea vines, and clay pot dishes!
  
  It's a typical Chinese restaurant where it is loud, can be a bit chaotic, and Iove it.

  Maybe my rating will change if I visit again on a regular day but for now it is what it is.
  
  I haven't been here since 2010, I think they have changed owners since then. Came for Christmas dinner with my family. We got the $188 dinner for 13 people. It wasn't bad but it wasn't anything special either. It was quite a hectic night so I understand the slower service. However, they brought out the wrong soup and also mixed up one of our vegetable dishes. On top of that, there was plastic in one of our dishes that my sister and boyfriend found.
  
  For it being Christmas Day I didn't want to make a big deal about it. But note to them to be careful! It could've been way worse.
  
  I enjoyed the fried fish dish and the roast duck was good. Although it wasn't an incredible experience, I would give it another try.

  Note on the front says they are closed til March 1st. We were trying to make reservations but they phones don't have a message saying so. So that kinda sucks... but they do do pigeons right. So, 4 stars for good pigeons but -1 star for service.
