I got sick from all the MSG they put in their noodle soup. Their soup dumplings skin wrapping is too thick- not thin like the way it should be. Their fried dumplings are average as well. Would definitely not go again.

The xiao long bao (soup dumplings) are delicious. Expect to be rushed out by all of the employees. But that’s the joe experience.

Best place to eat chinese food in new york. If you are going try the soup dumplings, was what I had and really delicious. The place is very crowded and has a 30 min waitlist, so try to be early or late. Also nice to go with family, and even friends if you want to have some sake.

From Oklahoma City, the hand pulled noodles are to die for. Many different flavors. Reasonably priced. Still craving it.

The chicken corn soup and Shanghai fried rice with chicken is everything. Cheap so it's ok it's cash only. Always a wait, but carryout is legit.

We had a small wait but nothing bad the food was worth it. Ordered way too much, be prepared to share food! Also the place was packed so.dont expect a nice quiet dinner.

The soup dumplings are a must have if you're ever in the city. The family style seating is an interesting experience in the best kind of way

Tourist spot: unremarkable food, overly crowded, preoccupied staff -there is much better in the area.

If you going to eat here you got to get the steamed soup dumplings it's a must all the food that is here is delicious! I've gone to all three establishments and the only problem I would say is the parking so make a little extra time for yourself.

Expect long wait to get in, table sharing with strangers, no special requests or deviation from menu. Had five different dishes with only one deemed good by the four of us dining together.

If you have to introduce anyone to soup dumplings, this would be the place. They even have a photo of Jeremy Lin on the wall when he was a Knick!

I love introducing new people to the joy of soup dumplings! I think theirs are better than the ones I had in China. Leave room to try other dishes. The sea bass is delicate and delicious. Weekend dinner can mean a very long wait. If that's a problem try coming in the afternoon. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do

Quick service. Reasonable price. Big Portion. Must order their famous crab and pork soup dumplings aka xiao long bao. They also sell frozen soup dumplings if you want to steam them at home! We usually buy the frozen ones when we go there. Go early for dim sum esp on the weekend, otherwise it can take up to an hour. Great Value for money!

1.29.18 - First time in years and it's still great. The soup dumpling is not too fatty; the fried rice is made well; we do not prefer the Shanghai Fried Noodles; the scallion pancakes is great; service us relatively fast and friendly.

Wait times can be 40 minutes. CASH ONLY.

Great soup dumplings. You'll probably have to end up waiting outside for a bit as it's very busy and you share tables. Food was amazing.

Great food. We had the dumpling soup. It's worth going back just to eat that again. One of the best Asian cuisine in China Town.

I had visited few times. Once I went there thwy had B grade from health department.any way This place is allways crouded even lunch or dinner 7 days for week. Popular for there soup dumplings.thats realy good. Only thing is you will not have private table as they have big round tables for 10 peoples you always will sit with strangers. Some times waiting time to be sitting is more than 30 minutes. So its adviceable for make reservation. Food is good in general good portion size.

This place is a must while in Chinatown.it does get crowded, and you might be sitting at a large round table with strangers.but the soup dumplings are CRAZY GOOD! It’s worth whatever you have to go through.
