New management and what appears to be, all new servers. Our waiter was not very familiar with the menu, indicating this was his second day on the job. I miss the old wait staff who I became very friendly with (Chelsea in particular) and the manager, Haven. Being a long standing and frequent customer, I am adopting a wait and see attitude toward how things may change, most noticeably the menu that I have loved and whether or not I develop a rapport with the wait staff. We really don't need another Chinese restaurant in Danville, so hopefully the menu with a few changes, will remain the same, rotating dishes depending on the season.

We had a great experience for my dad's 90th birthday- wanted accommodations for a quieter space and the manager was so gracious! The food was spectacular- the value was great with large portions, so we had a scrumptious meal. My dad had a hankering for veal parmesan, they made it happen and it was fabulous. This was our third great experience there... so wanted to share it with you- highly recommend!
