We came in near closing time but the owner was kind enough to get us a to-go meal. We ordered the Soy Sauce Raw Marinated Crab, and Spicy Sir Fried Squid. It was prepared within 10 minutes, and the quality was excellent. For the crabs, the flesh was succulent with umami flavor, and wasn’t salty at all. The stir fried squid was satisfying with each bite and wasn’t chewy. Overall I would say their food is well worth every penny.
