New owners & new menu (Northeastern Chinese). They bring Hot & Sour Soup before ordering anything, & when we complimented them on it, they brought us 2 more small bowls. We split the Cumin Beef. As the name would imply, it was spicy, but not exceedingly hot. The beef was very tender, as were the veggies. The rice was $1 extra, but we were not charged for the soup, & ended up bringing home enough leftover beef & rice for one more helping. All in all, a very pleasant lunch, both the food & the space. Nice folks running the place, 2 sisters & extended family. We'll be back.
