The hallmark of this place (other than the flavorful food) is the value. Considering that this place is BYOB, you can have a good dinner with food costs topping out at 10 bucks a person. Add the fact that the food is delicious and it's a hard one to pass up. Beware that the place is small, so you might have to wait a little bit if you show up during a busy period.

Awesome Chinese food for shockingly cheap prices. A very, very low key atmosphere that features plastic plates and utensils, but worth it for the food. Get the big tray spicy chicken or pork pancake. BYOB friendly.

My friends were super late so I asked if i could wait inside and they were very nice about it. i ended up waiting at a table while studying for 30 min but they didn't shoot me any dirty looks or anything.

My friends and I split a Big Tray Chicken and wow.. it sure was good.
I'm korean, so if you've had korean food... this is like the chinese equivalent of dakdoritang. Spicy Chicken soup with potatoes. But this version has a more chinese flavor profile, especially the spices used. It was really delicious but also interesting because I think they dried the chicken a little. It had a more pork-like texture.
If you like spicy foods, chicken, potatoes... BOOM. this is your dish.

It's big enough for 4 people to share (with other sides) but if you're just gonna eat this.. maybe 2 people.

price was pretty good too.

hope to come back and try some other dishes

This tiny restaurant needs an expansion. Since the write up in magazines and the papers hipster have flooded a once peaceful hole in the wall restaurant along Forsyth Street all wanting a taste.

The owner a jovial plump Chinese woman who mans the cashier at the back of the restaurant. Prior to this it was just her and one other and a cook but on a recent visit she has gained two additional help. Even then it is slow going if the place is packed.

This is a no frills service here. It is about the food. You get greasy paper carry-out menus to order or the pictures on the wall for those who need more help. You get your own drinks from the refrigerator. The food can take a bit to come out if it is busy.

If you have had similar food from the Henan region of China you will recognize it. It is spicy, lots of flavor from cumin, anise and red peppers with usual protein of lamb, chicken beef and fish. The Spicy Big Tray of chicken is exactly what it says. A tray of chicken full of a spicy oily broth abundantly flavorful and full of heat . It is plenty enough to share for two. Make sure to order the noodles as it doesn't come with it. The pancake with lamb is wonderfully delicious but filling. The ox tail soup with rice is plenty awesome for those you love gnawing on bones and sucking off the meaty morsels.

For now this is my favorite Henan cuisine spot away from the other popular chain got notoriety by a certain TV host. It is a no frills all food and even the busiest they never rush you out. Chinese service with sort of a smile. I'll take it!

Tasty hand-pulled noodles, but not as exceptional as the raving reviews led me to believe.
Not very spicy, but excellent quality chili oil on every table, so you can adjust for your taste
