“CheLi in Flushing is legit amazing. That squirrel fish? Super crispy, sweet, tangy — straight-up addicting. The place looks gorgeous too, like old-school China but super clean and chill. Service was on point. Honestly, I’d come back just for that fish.“

“Perfect soup dumplings, other dishes tasty as well, great service! Highly recommend.“

“Good place for various dim sum dishes, including fried buns and dumplings. They also had a promotion going on for free Peking duck buns with purchase, which were really flavorful. We went when it opened, so there wasn’t much of a crowd. Cash only.“

“Always enjoy coming here! Having lived in china for several years this place really hits the spot when I get that craving. The Yunnan Spicy Pork is quite a treat. And spicy dishes are spicy! No watering down here. I’ve yet to try the Peking duck they have but will definitely bring more friends.“

“A modest counter in the New World Mall food court, but the food is delicious and the prices are reasonable. We loved the Pork Soup Dumplings and the Spicy Beef Casserole.

Parking: New World Mall Parking Garage has direct access to the Food Court on Level C.“

“Din Tai Fung has been a long-time favorite of mine, and I’ve visited their locations across Asia more times than I can count. So, I was really looking forward to the opening of this NYC location. It took some time, but as soon as I walked in, I could see why. This isn’t like the more casual branches I’m used to – they’ve gone all out, creating a stunning space that’s perfect for a special night out. Though it’s a large venue, it feels intimate, and the table arrangement makes conversations easy. Service was excellent; our waiter was excited to introduce us to the restaurant and stayed attentive throughout the meal.

Now, the food! We tried two varieties of their signature xiaolongbao – the traditional pork and the pork and crab. Both were superb and just as good as what you’d find in Asia. The paper-thin wrappers are some of the best I’ve had outside of the Pacific, with great flavor and delicious soup inside. The pork chop fried rice was also outstanding – tender, juicy pork served over perfectly cooked fried rice. We also enjoyed the seaweed and tofu salad, which was a great starter. I did miss the wild vegetable tofu and sesame oil salad I’ve had in Asia, but I imagine it might be due to ingredient availability here. Prices are a bit higher than their Asian branches, but for me, the atmosphere and quality were worth it. I’ll definitely be back.

Note: Unlike other locations, this one is reservation-only.“

“I lived in NY for 37 years and nothing beats the food. That being said, I moved to Florida 4 years ago for work and haven't been back until last week. We went in for Thanksgiving (work), and decided we would do take out for dinner. This place was amazing. Food is always what I expected.....New York food is the best. The staff was super friendly, the prices were not anything crazy, and the food was ready within 10 minutes. We brought it back to the hotel and ate all of it. I don't know how food is where you are, but they always bury it in rice. Not here. They gave so much chicken and pork on top of the rice, I was very satisfied. Highly recommended.“

“Delicious, well executed dishes. Had the cilantro beef stir fry (ordered extra spicy - and it was! 🤗), and the black mountain ramen - both were excellent. You self order at the kiosk, which worked great, and the food came out promptly. Highly recommend!“

“I enjoyed my last visit, so I stopped again on Oct. 26, 2024. The food was still great. Ordered a lot more than what we could finish. Packed and brought home. If I have to do some comparisons, the Soup Dumplings with Pork were much better than Pan Fried Pork Buns.

This was my first time at Lao Yu Yuan. I very much enjoyed the food and experience. The taste was pretty authentic, the service was good, and the environment was clean and enjoyable. For the 4 dishes we ordered, I liked the "Mustard Green, Bamboo Shoots, and Pork Rice Cake" was the best. From the materials to preparation to taste were just perfect. The taste of the "Sesame Praised Fish" was great, but it would be better if a different type of fish was used. The fish was a bit too hard. The "Soup Dumpling with Pork" tasted great. The vinegar prepared for the dumpling was perfect. The dough for the dumpling was a bit too tough, especially the top tip portion of the dumpling.“

“The food turned out to be better than I expected, and many dishes go really well with drinks. Everyone in our group thought their fried rice was excellent, with each grain well separated and plenty of ingredients. The Sichuan dishe I ordered was very spicy, and most of their Sichuan options are seafood based. It would be even better if they offered more meat dishes. A place worth trying if passing by.“

“Shanghai cuisine, Shanghai flavor restaurant“

“service is topnotch friendly..food is superb 10 out of 10! enjoying Chinese cuisine to another level!“

“I was there at Jian Nan Syosset, Long Island. Everything went great!! But, those took the orders needed to be more educated to understand each dishes. We were a fairly larger group than standard party size. Some dished were small and some dim sum served with small quantities, like 3 or 4. Those who order for the large group, should give suggestion to order multiple orders for the same dish. So, each one in the group can have at least one.“

“I've been here 3 times. Once with co-workers, a friend and then family. Each time was a different experience - all positive. I may have even reviewed this sometime ago. My first time coming here I came with co-workers and it being my first time they recommended certain dishes which I really loved. Soup dumplings, and rice noodles. My second visit was with a good friend of mine and we chose completely different dishes like the Peking Duck and spicy garlic ribs and a veggie fried rice. Phenomenal. My third visit I came with family. I pretty much repeated the same meal that I had with my friend but we also ate the sesame chicken, duck buns, more soup dumplings and spicy noodles. This restaurant does not disappoint. Soup dumplings are free if you order over a certain amount and it's not even a high amount, the wait time is minimal and the food is just so good. My son is a huge fan. Will be coming here a 4th time for sure!“

“The Best Dimsum ever! People are nice too! The best!“
