Avoid peak hours - drink some lemon cucumber water while you are waiting
Satvik BeriSeptember 17, 2014Pretty bad service and experience–took more than 15 minutes to take our order even after we flagged down a waiter, and got our order wrong. Waiter was constantly absent and hard to reach.
Victoria ChanNovember 16, 2017Food was excellent but the service was so-so.... also it is very noisy inside. not sure if i will come back.
Vaidehi KJanuary 8, 2019It was good, but not great. Their sister restaurant China Blue, which serves Shanghainese food, is much better.
Maggie BlackwellOctober 21, 2015Food is good and fast but servers were dry and unhelpful. Don't ask for iced green tea. I guess they dont like that
Lance LiuJune 22, 2013Don't get why this place is so hyped. Nothing special. Plain food. Tasteless and poor material. One of the waitresses was hot but that's the only thing worth mentioning, yeah, at a restaurant.
Annie JAugust 11, 2013Bad service and sub par Chinese food. They serve frozen packaged soup dumplings to their customers!! Overpriced and small portions. You're better off going to Evergreen for Chinese good in the area.
M GonzalezMarch 17, 2019Very cozy but not worth the wait time or price - decent but not great. Skip the dumplings, stick to entrees.
Congrats on 2 stars with the NY Times! Well deserved!!!
- Lears FoolFebruary 17, 2016For a regular place, it is damn good. For a Michelin star, it was meh. Pork dumplings with chili oil was great.

"Try the sticky rice stuffed shu mai. It's one of my new favorites."

"Dim sum is unreal. Ideal meal is crab and pork soup dumplings, Katz pastrami egg roll, BBQ pork belly, and pan fried spicy pork buns. You'll pay twice the price of Chinatown and it'll be worth it."
Noah Weiss - 8.3
"Very cool and authentic place with Chinese street food. Try dumplings and their special tea."

"Excellent Korean coffeehouse in the heart of K-Town. Some of the best coffee to be found near Penn Station."
Adrienne Stanley - 9.5
"Amazing park. Tiny, but lively and packed with activities. Ping pong, reading room, and a carrousel to name a few. Plus lots of great food options. My favourite spot in Manhattan."

"Take the tour! I highly recommend it! You will learn so much more than you would by just walking through yourself"
