Spy something on a rolling cart that intrigues you? Hail one of Phoenix's many servers, and you'll swiftly be in business. This popular restaurant includes upstairs rooms which are a bit more formal. The Cantonese-styled menu includes everything from traditional offerings, like shrimp dumplings and orange beef, to more innovative ones like shark fin soup and jellyfish. The BBQ pork buns and braised beef ribs are among its most popular dishes, and the wait staff will continuously refill your tea cups throughuot the meal. There can be long waits for tables on weekends, so weekdays are a better choice if your time is limited.
