MY REVIEW: I love this place very much. Waitresses are very friendly and the owner walks around to make sure that the food serves on time and explains to customers how to eat properly with chopsticks, mix sauces...
Besides, the decoration is very elegant and warm atmosphere... Try and you will love this place.

MY REVIEW: This Chinese & Vietnamese restaurant is delicious. Tenya, a Vietnamese friend of mine, recommended me to come to this restaurant. She would make the trip from Tomball to eat here in what she claims is the most authentic Vietnamese restaurant. After hearing this, I decided to try it out especially since it's so close to me -- in Bellaire Chinatown.
The table-clothed tables all are round with those rotating plate in the middle. The restaurant seemed to be very utilitarian -- simple and plain. Even one of the waitress wasn't very nice (but another waitress came by and saved the day with her generosity).
When we placed the order for appetizers, we ordered the shrimp spring rolls. They were thicker than normal and were very good. We also had wonton soup with vegetables (they may have added them when we asked if it had vegetables) and they were also very good -- and it had beef too. It was one of the most flavorful wonton soup I've had in a long while.
We ordered walnut chicken, spicy scallops, and pan-fried vermicelli. They were all delicious, especially the walnut chicken. The scallops were good also, but I thought it could be a little bit more flavorful. Considering the quality of the rest of the food, I would give the scallops another try -- but since the menu is so large, I probably would try something else the next time I go.
They only had jasmine tea, not oolong tea (which is something I normally get) but that's ok. The jasmine tea was good nevertheless.
Also, the fortune cookie was stale. But I'm not going to complain about it since it's supposed to be a complimentary treat and it's not something they make at the premises.
The price was good for the quality and the portions of the food.
Generally, what they make is very good, and it's a great addition to Bellaire's Chinatown.
