Had a great first experience at Sunny’s Chinese. We had a very attentive server who walked us through the menu. We choose the chef’s tasting menu, the dishes were well curated and had the perfect portion size. The flavor profile for each dish was unique and the dessert was the best. Overall a great experience will visit again!
