Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking on Fulton Street is limited; expect to circle on peak evenings. Best luck on nearby residential side streets.
Dress code: No dress code — casual, takeout-friendly attire is standard.
Noise level: Low to moderate — primarily a takeout counter, so dine-in conversation is easy but space is limited.

Weekday lunch: Typically no wait, with fast counter turnover.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Strong selection — multiple vegetable entrées plus vegetarian General Tso’s.
Vegan options: Moderate — tofu and veggie stir-fries without egg can be requested, but sauces may contain animal products.
Gluten-free options: Limited — no dedicated gluten-free prep or menu labeling; many dishes use soy sauce with gluten.
