Very delicious and original food. I tried lobster dumplings for the first time and they are not to be missed out on! Perfectly cooked with an exquisite sauce on the top. The service is great. Very kind waiters and quick service guaranteed. Best chinese food in Boca!

Was not crowded at all for a Friday. Service was excellent. Very personable and friendly. Lots of choices and much more authentic than your average Chinese restaurant. Dim sum platter was delicious. Split with two people for appetizer. Split a 3 lb lobster cooked with house chili sauce. Cut up and nice presentation. Excellent. Half Peking duck. Excellent. Baby book choy. Cooked perfectly. The table was a little too small for everything but we figured it out. There's a lot of other dishes that I want to try so will definitely return. The prices are a little on the high side. $43/lb lobster. Duck $48 half. But the quality was there and when everything is right it's worth the extra few bucks if it's in your budget. Sorry no photos because heads full of finger licking good sauce 😛
First, we arrived on a Friday at 1:00 PM and the restaurant was empty. It was the same when we left. We ordered cold sesame noodles that were quite tasty yet they put the noodles in a small bowl and the peanut sauce on top. Trying to mix the sauce into the noodles without it going all over the table was difficult. Next came the Bite Size Garlic Ribs. The meat was tough and hard to chew. Last we ordered the Duck Lettuce Wrap. The duck meat was chopped so finely you could not know it was duck, it looked like spam. The taste was not to our liking. It was spicy and had a weird taste. I order lettuce wraps at other restaurants and have never been disappointed. This was our first and last time to this establishment.
I grew up in NJ right outside of Philadelphia and have looking for a great Asian restaurant since I moved to florida. I had literally given up after being disappointed so many times. And then….found Chili crab and it exceeded all of my expectations and ranks up there with the best I’ve ever had. If you want great Hing Kong Inspired food then you chili crab is for you

Food was good but not great. The corn and crab soup was bland. The lobster fried rice was good. The grouper was fine but the sauce was a touch oily. My main problems are that they pay no attention to bringing the food out in a timely manner in so far as having plates down at the same time as the other people at your table. This is annoying. Also, the server tries awfully hard to upsell. Last nitpick: at these prices ditch the old bbq joint hard benches and put in some decent seating
A Birthday to Remember! From the moment my girlfriend and I walked into the restaurant for my birthday lunch, we were greeted with a warm smile that set the tone for a wonderful experience. Tiffany, our waitress, was absolutely fantastic—attentive, friendly, and made us feel truly celebrated. The food was delicious, the sake was smooth and satisfying, and the surprise birthday ice cream was the cherry on top—sweet, thoughtful, and just as tasty as the rest of the meal. We'll definitely be coming back. Thank you for making my birthday so special!
This place is phenomenal! Sooo glad we decided to eat here. We decided on the dim sum platter, the lobster preset menu and a whole crab on the side. We were blown away by the freshness and quality of every dish. The dim sum were so flavorful along with their dipping sauce. All made in house. Seafood is definitely what you want to get when you come here. We tried the ginger scallion preparation for our lobster, it was out of this world! We also got the whole Dungeness crab. Cooked fresh, soooo delicious! Super hospitality! Excellent experience for a special occasion and worth every penny. Definitely recommend! Mr. Allen was kind enough to show the King Crab for the next table.

Just ordered through Door Dash tonight ($175 order). When it got here it was missing 2 dishes- the crispy shrimp roll and the Yuzu BBQ spare ribs. I called and spoke to the manager who blamed door dash and could not care less- told us we have to call door dash. The food itself was way overpriced and frankly some of the worst food I have had (I am from the NY/NJ area). The kung pao chicken was dry, not much flavor except the spice level. The bok choy, supposedly with garlic, was dry and without sauce (and only 3 pieces!) and the singapore rice noodle- which was supposed to have shrimp, chicken and pork had a few slivers of chicken and pork, a few small shrimp and was dry and tasteless. If you eat there, don't say you weren't warned. (and yes, Door Dash refunded us $37.84!).

Delicious, authentic, and great food ;) Peking duck, chili lobster, lobster dumplings, pork ribs, everything was fantastic. The Peking duck is by far the best we have had in a long time!
