From MN, found this little joint and LOVED, LOVED this place! Absolutely loved the amazing sweet staff, food came in big portions! 5 star service! Will definitely come back! Everyone has to stop here if they ever come to Susanville! It's a must! Steamed Fish was my favorite, def worth the extra wait. And free drinks on the house. Can't get no better!

A gem of a place in the high desert country of Susanville. Outstanding food. Wor awon Ton Soup, Cashew Chicken, and Seasame Chicken meals were outstanding, and the Pot Sticker were great, too. They are different, but great! Highly recommend to the locals or those of us that are just passing through. Peace

Looks like a Vietnamese owner recently purchased the restaurant so it offers a wide selection of Chinese food and a decent variety of Vietnamese food. We opted for two Vietnamese dishes. Both were delicious! My dish had fresh bok choy that was perfectly cooked. My only criticism is that they need to use fresh mushrooms and not canned. The service was great. The restaurant was clean and pleasant.

Friendly owner and lots of vegan options! They gave me veggie-fried rice (no egg) on the house! A 10 dish otherwise! I ordered the sweet and sour tofu and my friend ordered broccoli with cashews. Tofu was DEFINITELY more on the sweet side than sour haha but tasted great mixed with the fried rice! Each serving is a LOT of food enough for 2 people easily. I eat a lot more than others and i STILLhad leftovers for lunch! Good value, good variety, great taste.

I'm so glad we stopped here. They had some of the best pho I've ever had. I was tempted to buy another bowl to go. The amount they give you are good sized but I still didn't want to share it with my husband.
