I stopped by here this weekend with my girlfriend for lunch. We had an unexpected delay in Squirrel Hill and decided to look up a good place on yelp. As soon as cool ice came up it reminded me of some good reviews I had seen in the past and so we decided to go there. The inside of the restaurant is nice with both the chairs and walls having bright and vivid colors (think blue, red, yellow, etc.). We were greeted almost immediately upon entering and given out choice of seats.\n\nFor my lunch entree I decided to go with the salted pepper chicken over rice while my girlfriend had the beef noodle soup. Our dishes came out in a reasonable time and both looked good. I first started by tasting my girlfriends dish which had a wonderful broth with a hint of spiciness at the end that the noodles took on. Her beef was also good and for a split second I was sad I didn't order it until I tried my chicken. The coating was a beautiful brown color and was crispy while the inside was moist and hot in temperature. I loved it and the slightly salty crust paired perfectly with it making it the tastiest chicken I have had in a long time. My chicken also came with cold bean sprouts and something else, maybe a cabbage that had some semblance to haluski (I am part polish after all). Finally there was the rice which had a sauce on it and was slightly sticky which made picking it up with chop sticks easier.\n\nThe bottom line for me is that I would definitely head back here in the future. The food was awesome for the price (less than $9 an entree) and the service friendly. I am also eagerly awaiting the warm weather so that I can try some of their shaved ice which they had pictures of on one wall.
