We came here as four people and ordered about seven dishes. Overall the flavors were good, portions very big, and some dishes stood out.
• Sliced beef tenders and pork w. spicy sauce (夫妻肺片): The best dish of the night — seasoning was excellent, portion generous for an appetizer. We even packed one to go. • Shreded potato, the chilly one (尖椒土豆丝): Actually tasted more like sweet-and-sour potato, not really “chilly.” Flavor was fine, just different from the name. • Small combination (小拼盘): Pork head, beef, and Harbin dried sausage. All cured meats, flavorful but quite salty. • Ganbian string beans (干扁四季豆): Traditional and authentic, but a bit salty. • Sweet and sour sliced pork, the vinegar flavor (老式锅包肉): Very crispy, big slices, vinegar taste made it refreshing. Definitely recommend this version over ketchup style. • One pot dish (东北一锅出): With ribs, beans, corn. This one was disappointing and below expectations — I wouldn’t recommend.
Service wasn’t great: the waiter seemed rushed, kept pushing us to order, and one vegetable dish we ordered never arrived. Environment was okay, not too crowded.
👉Food overall is tasty and authentic Northeastern style. but skip the one pot dish.

Hidden gem for Northern Chinese food. The soup we ordered had lots of veggies and tofu. The sweet and sour is different from what you get with American Chinese food. It's is crispy and the sauce is lighter with a vingery tang. The glass cold noodle dish is so good and refreshing. It's in a peanut sauce that is not sweet and works with the noodles.

Very good good and very reasonably priced. Very generous portions as well. The dumplings are delicious. Also try the shredded cabbage salad.

The food was okay, we had the lunch specials and it was enjoyable.
I don’t understand what they were thinking when they decided to put four dishes, one appetizer, and two containers of rice into a single bag. The bag tore, and the dumplings fell out. If you're going to be that cheap and only use one bag, at least take an extra five seconds to staple or secure the containers, so that even if the bag tears, the food doesn’t spill everywhere. As usual, Fantuan was completely unhelpful. They contacted the restaurant, and the response was basically that since it was a pickup order, they didn’t care.

THE WORST RESTAURANT IN THE WORLD, DON'T GO THERE. ALSO, IF YOU WORK AS A DELIVERY MAN, IT'S A NIGHTMARE TO COLLECT ORDERS!

This dish has a weird taste and texture - the weird taste is not because of the sauce, but because of the quality of the ingredient. The texture as well. I can’t help spitting it out and finally I give up. The taste ruins my lunch and feeling sick now.
The quality control of this restaurant is terrible; sometimes it tastes good, sometimes it is awful. I have been there dine in and take out couple times. In general, the dining has better quality; but the take out is terrible (it makes me wonder whether they keep using lower quality ingredients for take out on purpose.
