Everything is delicious! The bartenders are great at giving suggestion as well . Be sure to check the hours of operation - we were there at 4 on a Saturday, but they didn't open till 5pm.

Abigail Koffler

This place is insanely good: the spicy vegetable wontons come with peanut sauce and the patio has AC ! A gem!

Marie Richer

Definitely the best soup dumplings in Brooklyn and give Joe's Shanghai a run for their money for best in the city . Better than King's County Imperial imho.

Christine DaCruz

Get the spicy veg wontons , my absolute favorite! But seriously everything on this menu is worth a try. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this place!

Evan Bartlett

It's great for take out but even better in person. Get the pork buns ( they are dumplings , not pork buns like you would expect), the mains are all good

brian braiker

The juicy pork dumplings are what I've always known as soup dumplings . Whatever you call them, they're the best I've ever had. Phenomenal. Bite a corner and slurp out the broth of insanity.

Thomas Strobl

Went there without any expectations and it looks like a crazy fusion between a chinese restaurant and a football bar . Still have dreams about those soup dumplings , really insanely good.

This place is one of the more "authentic " Shanghainese restaurants I've ever been to in NY. The flavors have a better salty/sweet proportion and really reminds me of the dishes my mom makes.

Went here with my wife & mother in law, food & wine were great, the first host was good, nice guy. Second hostess was rude & nasty. If I come back & see her I'll leave immediately. Else I'm in!

Eric Wagner

Xiao Long Bao on delivery--amazing. Dou Miao with garlic--also amazing. Spicy Pork Dumplings--not spicy , but delicious. Honestly, I feel like you can't go wrong with this place. Read more

Order the "Sliced Beef with Scallion and Onion in Brown Sauce (Awesome!)". That is the actual description. (#55 for dinner , #33 for Lunch )

Colby Spikes

First time here, MUCH better than M Noodle for sure! Soup dumplings were pretty good, fried rice was more steamed rice than anything

héloïse

Conventional American Chinese. The veg dishes hurt my tummy. Too much corn starch. Scallion pancake is the McDonald's burger of scallion pancakes + doughy inside. Try Vanessa's or Xian > authentic .

Shaun Newport

PUSHY STAFF . Food was tepid and came.to quickly to be "made to order". Literally less than two minutes...fast food shack with delivery . Worth it for casual convenience. No more.

Natalia U

Nice bartender , tasty food, nice cocktails , pleasant staff . Price higher than Manhattan

Robin Man

Order the following: Soup Dumplings , Pork Shu Mai, Awesome Beef , and Shanghai Noodles . Optional, scallion pancakes and roast pork buns . This place is so flippin' good.

John Deely

Come for the dumplings and buns , and stay for the rice cake noodle dish with pork . It's de best!

Johanna

The veggie dumplings and tic tac toe chicken are delicious. The mojitos are *really* delicious.

Mike Leotta

The steamed juicy pork buns are actually soup dumplings and you should get them.

Hunter Orahood

Juicy Pork Buns !! So damn good. Also really good Kung Pao Chicken .

Amy Tremmel

Get the juicy pork buns (aka soup dumplings ) and sit in the back garden .

Jason Spak

Soup dumplings are a revelation. Let the pro's mix up the tangy spicy dipping sauce for you.

Raquelle Jessie

best chinese food ever order awesome beef , spicy eggplant , salt & pepper shrimp & the soup dumplings

Anne Czernek

Pork buns = soup dumplings , spicy wontons = peanut curry shu mai. Add a noodle dish and it's enough for 2.

John Penner

Best place to get a dim sum type lunch on weekends in Williamsburg

Berrak K

Spicy vegetable wontons with a peanut sauce is a good try ????

Maria Stanisheva

The pork soup dumplings (the soup is inside ;)) and the scallion pancakes were delish!
