Went there with high expectations Extremely disappointed. Ordered dumplings which were extremely doughy Also ordered shrimp with walnuts/ mayo dressing which had absolutely no taste Brought it to waiters attention and then either the manager came and asked about the dish. Told her above and she neither said can we remake get something else Said we could take it home but no taking it back Will never return and buyer beware

Always consistent and delicious food. The soup dumplings are always on point, but take out can lead to some of them popping open. It's best eating once they are ready. Cumin lamb, spicy beef noodle, minced pork, & items for kids like lomein & chicken and broccoli are always well made. There are many styles of Chinese cuisine and I feel like many bad reviews of this place are because lack of cooking and cuisine knowledge. The food is clean, consistent, and great. Don't trust people with a palate of a 5 year old

Our go to. Never disappoints. Soup dumplings, shrimp and snow peas, sesame chicken, Singapore noodles, pork with scallions are all wonderful.

Have eaten here recently 2 times. The food is wonderful. The portions are more than ample. Service is very good. Prices are very reasonable. Can be a bit of a wait but worth it. We will eat here often and recommend it to all.

First time ordering from here despite living close by. I haven't had really good sesame shrimp in a long time and decided to order their sesame jumbo shrimp. I'm so glad I did! They arrived hot and drenched in a delicious sauce which is perfect. I ordered it with a side of the small white rice which realistically is a portion for 2 or 3 people not necessarily a bad thing but something to keep in mind when ordering! great for dates and sharing with friends and such. I only wish the broccoli the sesame shrimp came with were cooked or steamed. They're pieces of raw broccoli which is surprising. Other than that, I would order again!

I love their soup dumplings. Fish was also nicely plated and very tasty. Only problem is limited parking.

Queens! A real Chinatown food wise but without any tourists. I loved this fast paced dumpling emporium. You can park in an underground lot underneath the building if you figure out the way in. That's the way that you know this restaurant is frequented by locals. Such delicious food.

This restaurant has the BEST Chinese food I've ever eaten. Every dish is delicious and beautifully presented. Soup dumplings, grilled chicken with chilies, three green vegetables in garlic sauce and lobster in brown sauce are my favorites! My wife and I eat there at least once a week! Enjoy!!

We came here for lunch the other day and ended up getting a Thai tea, some soup dumplings, and the general tso's chicken and the crispy pork chop lunch, special dishes which came with rice and soup. The Thai tea wasn't bad but could've been a little less icy. The soup dumplings weren't bad either. The two lunch dishes we got were very good and a good amount of food for the price you paid, which was around $10 for each. The place is clean as you saw them spray and wipe down the chairs and tables after people left. The service was also good. Cash only.

Always have a great meal here. We started off with some crispy salted chicken- AMAZING. A scallion pancake- super crispy and not too oily, the Westlake pork, awesome- but be warned, super fatty and rich so it's best shared by many, and the pork soup dumplings. Which I unfortunately did not get a pic of because they were eaten so fast. Great prices, great service, clean place. We can't wait to come back!

Still five stars!I've tried many other items over the years and a new favorite would be the wontons in chili peanut sauce. I always get the snow pea leaves which come with brown rice, and I ask for extra sauce with the chili wontons to put over the rice!Recently tried the crispy noodles with beef and was disappointed in the cut/quality of beef--very chewy and not great texture. Would stick with the chicken in the future.

Great place for a sit down meal or for take out. Service is good and prompt! The food is overall very good and they have some dishes where they really shine. Soup dumplings are one of those, and their Beef and noodle soup soup is fantastic. My favorite is the Salt and Pepper Shrimp, prepared perfectly with just the right amount of kick to the spices! If you have never tried this dish and are a fan of spicy flavors and shrimp, so try it! It is difficult to find parking but worth the bastle.

Not bad! Food was tasty. Had the pork belly, rice cakes, mock duck, spicy beef appetizer and soup dumplings. Everything was fresh and delicious. Only complaint was it was so crowded and stuffy in there. Chairs were placed too close together. It was just uncomfortable. Service was good cash only.
