“Always a must stop when staying in Philly! I crave their cold sesame noodles!!! The fried dumplings are excellent as well!!!“

“The first meal we had as we were visiting the city. The xiao long baos hit the spot. The forbidden ribs are good to the bones. The place is neat and cutely decorated. Staff is personable. We totally had a great experience here. So worth it after a whole day of travel.“

“All the rave reviews are true! I visited with a friend from out of town and we had a feast of our favorites. Nearly everything on the menu is vegan, and it was hard to choose! The lunch special is a fantastic value and includes soup and a spring roll. We chose the miso soup, which we agreed is the most flavorful we've ever had. The staff are friendly and really helpful, and the food came out really fast - truly cooked to order. And, as if that weren't enough, the prices are incredibly reasonable. 10/10. I can't wait to go back!“

“10 out of 10! Thank you so much for an outstanding dinner. Everything was on point and tasty.“

“We had a few different things off the menu and shared. Everything was amazing. All of the ingredients were fresh, the servers had great recommendations, and the service was prompt. We will definitely be back in the warmer months to enjoy the outdoor seating.“

“When I saw how affordable this spot was, I wasn’t expecting to be wow’d by the food but oh my goodness it was good! I got the chicken chow mein, pork dumplings in chili oil and the crunchy spicy cucumber. The heat levels were perfect (I got medium for the chow mein and dumplings, and the recommended level for the salad). I could still taste all the flavors but my mouth was coated perfectly in sichuan. The balance of sweetness and aromatics in everything - especially the pork dumplings - was delicious.

The staff was friendly, the wait time was short, the food was fresh.

I will absolutely be coming back and you should too :)“

“I’ve never had such a cool and friendly experience at a restaurant. Everyone was so nice and the food was great! One of the staff members even played a song on the Jing Guan for our son! One of the best experiences I’ve ever had!“

“Great food with great service and the atmosphere was a Vibe....will be back soon.“

“I love their Big Buns! Being a Filipino, my favorite dimsum is Bola Bola siopao (a bun stuffed with pork, chinese sausage and salted egg) which I found out is not available here locally. But when I discovered Bao Mama, they sell Big Buns which is quite similar to a Bola Bola siopao! I was hooked! Plus the Big Buns ARE HUGE and has a generous amount of filling! I just love them! I am also looking forward to try their other products.“

“Great Food and amazing drinks“

“used to loveeee their seafood spaghetti. cried when they downsized their menu T_T but i still enjoy the other dishes they still have up!!! only thing is that it feels like they change their format everytime i go in..? used to be a really nice, chic resturaunt, but now opted for a more take-out service, which i do not mind“

“This is definitely one of the better Chinese restaurants I’ve been to. The food itself was delicious and high-quality. One thing I noticed, however, is that there seems to be a slight difference between the menu offered to Chinese patrons and non-Chinese guests. I saw some people ordering dishes that weren't on the standard menu—I’m not quite sure what they were, but everything looked authentic and tasted great. If you're looking for solid Chinese cuisine, this place is definitely worth a visit.“

“Great food! delicious soft shell crab, vegetable dishes, soup dumplings, & more!“

“Made reservations at 7pm at loch bar for my sister’s birthday. I got there first and since my sister was a few minutes away, the host couldn’t seat me without her. My sister arrived at 7:05pm and the host informed us that it was busy therefore we would have to wait at the bar until there is a table available. I’m not sure what is the point of a reservation, if you won’t be seated right away. The bartender was really nice and welcoming. 20 minutes later, there was an open table. The appetizers were delicious especially the mussels!!!! The caviar and potato skin were sooo good as well. The oysters were fresh & cold just how I like it. I ordered shots of clase azul for my sister’s bday and we decided to do a bump of caviar & a shot of clase azul. It was a great combo! Thank me later.“

“Today was my first time ordering from this restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious. It was so fresh. I had sweet and sour pork and the hot and sour soup. It was the best soup ever! It's the only Chinese restaurant I will order from in the future. Also, the person who took my order was so friendly as was the delivery person. And the food was nice and hot when it was delivered! Thank you!“

“Wait staffers very helpful with menu“

“Just had this place for the first time. Got the lunch special garlic chicken. HIGHLY recommended. If I’m being honest, the non-lunch-special prices are a little high for the area, but that’s not to say it’s not worth it. Best Chinese food I’ve had since Flushing, Queens.“

“Great local spot for fresh yummy food“

“We had my grandmother's 91st birthday celebration here in April. It was a party of 18, family style, and it was the best experience ever! The food was delicious, a great variety, beautiful plate presentation, and a warm atmosphere. The staff was attentive to our every need, the restaurant was clean and inviting and our entire group had an amazing experience! We will definitely be back!“

“The best“

“all food Good 100 persen like“

“Great food! Easy walk from convention center! Enjoy!“

“CASH ONLY. They have an ATM on site though.

This place is great!

Typical Chinese takeout spot with a pretty standard menu. They have a great lunch deal during the week where you get an entree and either a soup or soda for like $10.

I’ve tried a bunch of things here and have never been disappointed. Portions are a good size and I usually have leftovers.“

“I was looking for roast crispy duck. I didn't want to go to Chinatown because its gotten rundown, yucky traffic, expensive parking and horrible SEPTA. I decided to stay in my neighborhood so I could walk. I worried about it being expensive. Chestnut Hill is high end and the restaurant looked pricey. What a WONDERFUL SURPRISE! I was a solo table but still treated like a queen with lots of servers checking in, giving water and smiling. The roast duck in black bean sauce on the cast iron plate was SCRUMPTIOUS. It comes with a healthy side of white rice and delicate, flavorful bok choi. The skin was crispy yet NOT oily or greasy. The CHUNKS of tender duck meat were excellent. The sauce was thick, savory and yummy. FOODGASM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The portion was so healthy that I was able to take a container home for lunch the next day. Then I ordered the Mudslide ice cream pie for dessert. PERFECTION. Dense, creamy, sweet but not cloying with nut accents, fresh strawberries and cream as garnish. Cool treat on a humid Summer night. When the bill came, I was shocked that it was less than $40. I did not order a cocktail because I wanted to concentrate on the food. I gave them a big tip and said I am absolutely returning. I am also addicted to their spring rolls too. Two perfect crunchy flaky rolls filled with a balanced combination of shrimp, cheese, and cabbage that you can dip in duck sauce or mustard or just enjoy plain.“

“Awesome dumplings. Food seemed very authentic. Great service, quick too.“

“It’s by far the best Chinese food I’ve ever eaten. Not only is the food delicious, the owner, Cary and his staff are the nicest people. I highly recommend them! Also, they deliver. #wontonsoup #exceptional“

“Eggplant yum. Dan Dan noodles yum. Delish.“

“They have so many options for vegetarians/vegans! The veggie dumplings were nice and I’m looking forward to try more dishes like orange tofu while I’m at Temple. Great option for late night eats. The place is clean and relatively easy to find healthy options!“

“Recently tried this place and the food is delicious. I did a make your own bowl and the broccoli was crunchy and the noodles were cooked perfectly. I wasn’t a fan of dumplings wish they were chicken but weren’t bad . Definitely recommend“

“Excellent Asian food! Great service!“

“Pussy driver shook my Pepsi up I’m calling back and telling him he forgot his tip n do my American best to break his jaw…. I recommend they insure their drivers health for shaking my Pepsi- he forgot it not me-“

“Anyone who dares give this place less than 5 stars has got to answer to me! This is a phenomenal little place. A huge portion of Dan Dan noodles with minced pork for under $10. You cannot beat that. I can't wait to try other dishes from this place!“

“great food clean friendly service“

“The food is as amazing as the owner. HAN IS THE MAN!!! Get the Dan Dan Noodles.“

“The chicken frames are full of great flavour. In my opinion, their braised chicken with brown sauce tastes even better than dedicated braised‑chicken chain restaurants — definitely give it a try!
If you can handle spicy food, go for extra‑hot on the grilled skewers. They taste fantastic.“

“I had high hopes after seeing a tiktok about how someone enjoyed the food and service here. Having said that the service was excellent. The owner was very sweet and thoughtful which I truly appreciated. The food however wasn't the best tasting in the city. The chicken wings were the best part but barely noteworthy. It tastes like my shrimp and broccoli has been seasoned with old bay and my white rice was a bit soft. The fried was was tasty but the general tso chicken was small and a little chewy. Cheesesteak Roll was good. Overall I'm not disappointed with my experience but I would have second thoughts about returning.“

“Been wanting to try this place for years and finally made it today! The fried gizzards were good—perfectly cooked and not tough or chewy. The cheesesteak egg rolls were decent too. Glad I finally got to try it!
The area around this place is a little rough. The service was fine.“

“The oyster house always hits the mark! The raw bar is , of course, exceptional, but the entrees are also skillfully crafted and the ingredients always fresh. The service is just attentive and helpful enough, and the unique cocktails are always to be savored. Another home run experience!“
