This spot has been faithfully serving up Mandarin and Szechuan cuisine since 1978. Owners Ben and John Tzou have taken a rather nondescript building, located a few blocks south of the Orange Circle, and turned it into a haven for both its patrons and for eager young restaurateurs, who learn the business here before going out on their own. But the food is the thing, and you can find classic Chinese-American dishes like garlic chicken, moo shu pork, won ton soup, Szechwan beef, kung pao shrimp and a variety of chow mein. Family-style dinners are popular, and the Peking duck is a crisp-skinned standout. Although there is not a full bar, wine and beer are served.
