no frills chinatown restaurant with seating. the interior is relatively clean and neat. it is gritty though like old school nyc. walls are plastered with pictures of menu items. there's a decent amount of tables and bar seats. CASH ONLY.
there are dim sum menu items, rice dishes, noodle platters and much more on the menu. serving sizes are ample. prices are pretty relaxed. last time i was here, ordered the shrimp rice noodle (aka streamed rice roll). you get 3 fairly big rice noodles stuffed with large shrimp. it was really tasty as a snack / light meal and hit the spot. it was season and flavored well. the shrimp tasted fresh. the rice noodle was thin yet perfectly chewy. it is served with soy sauce and some greens. $7.10 + tip. well worth coming for some Cantonese & Hong Kong style eats.
staff was quick.
If you’re reading this, stop and go. This place has a variety of traditional & authentic food. I came here with a group of friends two years ago, and last week I just came by Myself. The portions are large, so if you come with a group of friends, I suggest selecting something different from the menu and sharing it. I got the shrimp lo me in and the pan-fried chicken and fungus dumplings. The dumplings, marinated with soy sauce, were super flavorful. The lo mein was good. Nothing out of the ordinary, but the portions were significant. The service was speedy, and I was able to tale left-over food to go. If you are looking for authentic traditional dim sum, this is your place. It's nothing fancy which doesn't take away from the aesthetics of the place. I felt like I was at grandmas house waiting for her to cook a homemade meal.
Small dim sum restaurant but big on flavors and portions! You don’t get the classic carts like in other dim sum restaurants but you do get the same classic foods and tastes. The shrimp shu mai are so good and massive
Really great food. The menu is amazing... you can get many more types of dishes than in other restaurants. We had shrimp rice noodle, eel and tofu casserole and teriyaki chicken. It took only 10 minutes to make. There were lots of locals waiting for pick up, so this is definitely a place to go!
Absolutely FANTASTIC and AUTHENTIC!! (And INEXPENSIVE for NY!)
Went on a Sunday morning at 10. Promptly seated, and immediate attention from staff. Service was insanely fast!! We each ordered three dish items (a bit much honestly) and all of it was on the table within 10 min, maybe less. You'll see lots of locals from China Town, but take that as a sign that they trust it too! Even if your not familiar with Chinese cuisine, you'll struggle to make any bad menu choices. All three of my dishes were just DELICIOUS.
6 Dishes, two diet cokes (plus two complimentary teas), and built-in gratuity was $42!
Authentic Chinese restaurant full of locals which is always a good sign. The menu is large with a huge choice of dishes from appetisers to mains. Complimentary Chinese tea is provided which was a nice touch. It is a little difficult asking questions about dishes due to the lack of English speaking employees. The pan fried dumplings are by far the best I have had to date!! Would definitely recommend those. Large portions at inexpensive prices. Would definitely recommend.
Cash only, yes there’s a bathroom. Prices are $7.50-$12 per dish, they add a 18% tip automatically.
Solid authentic Chinese joint. I’ve been coming here for years. You’re here for the food, not the restaurant vibe.
Great food only for the ones who really know where to find them. Amazing prices for its quality. Humble space but definitely worth your visit. Absolutely in love with their congee... the most satisfying yet light meal after a long day of hard work.
Went at 6:15pm on a weekday. It was a little quiet but by the time we left, there were people waiting for seating. Had the pork sho mai (amazing), steamed spare ribs, scallion pancakes, and Singapore Mei Fun noodles. The food was delicious.
One of the best chinese restaurants in Chinatown. I 100% recommend coming to this place. The food was a 10/10. Prices are fairly reasonable. A bit expensive but for something big it’s really good. Service is great. Overall is a 10/10. Come here for some really good Chinese food
