Keep walking by. The prices are too high. We paid twice what we would normally pay at an award winning Asian restaurant in the states. The soup dumplings were good and the General Tso's chicken was good even though the server said it came with steamed rice, it never came. We also ordered fried rice which was not good, see pic. Never have had fried rice with bell peppers and other frozen vegetables. It was so bland and there were no condiments on the table. We didn't want to finish it. To cap it off I ordered a plum wine and it was awful and sour. The server said I just opened a new bottle and I said it's sour, can't drink it. She didn't care, didn’t offer an alternative and didn't subtract it from our bill. Nor was I offered water. As I paid the bill for the highest priced meal that was passable, I said she should've removed the cost of the wine and as I handed the full glass back to her, she said sorry, but that was too late, no help and a waste of €85.
We ordered the Signature soup dumplings, crabmeat soup dumplings, chicken with broccoli, and beef noodle soup. My grandchildren especially loved the soup dumplings—they were a huge hit! Every dish tasted fresh, and you could tell everything was handmade. The food was delicious, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We will definitely be back.
Friendly service and great food. I had the soup dumplings that have a lovely delicate flavor that combines perfectly with the vinegar you pour inside. The smashed cucumbers were delicious as well, though I think they’re a bit expensive. Don’t know why the place was almost empty, I would recommend :)
The food was super flavorful and delicious. The scallion oil noodle was the stand out, and the beef in the spicy noodle soup just melted in our mouths and was immensely flavorful. The soup dumplings were good, but difficult to eat (probably user error, though!). My only feedback/negatives are that there’s no background music, so it’s very quiet and a little awkward to have a conversation with someone over the meal. Also, there is no tap drinking water available, only bottled water for a price. Overall, I’d definitely recommend dining here for super delicious and authentic Chinese food, especially the scallion oil noodle!!
The place was empty on Thursday evening, but we decided to trust the Google reviews and give it a try. I don’t regret it. The fish soup/ramen was excellent: very flavorful with a generous amount of fish. I also enjoyed the steamed dumplings. The beef ramen, however, could have been better. It was extremely salty and quite simple: just an overly spicy and salty broth, ramen, and chunks of beef. Compared to the fish soup, it lacked depth and variety of ingredients. Another downside was the interior. The place felt plain and a bit neglected, and it didn’t give off a clean or fresh impression (even though I didn’t see any visible trash). The table was slightly sticky, and the bathroom floor was too, which raised some hygiene concerns. We didn’t experience any stomach issues afterwards, but overall, I wouldn’t come back despite enjoying parts of the meal.
