Was it the eggplant ? The tangerine beef ? The Singapore noodles ? The soup dumplings ? Everything was so good, I completely forgot about my cocktail - and I love cocktails ! You WON'T be disappointed.
Fantastic Chinese food and atmosphere. And I mean REAL Chinese food . The soup dumplings are can't-miss. Wait staff is A+. Don't forget to say hello to Gold Dirty B*stard (the goldfish) near the door.
Shanghai soup dumplings are big. Patio seating can get hot. Great presentation, you can taste the ingredients. Wait staff are nice but kitchen can be slow. Reserve seating and order many dishes early.
These guys go by less is more from a menu perspective, but what they put forth they do well : chow fun , Kung pao , green beans all great. Skip the crispy noodle joint it’s not what you’re lookin for
Every single item on the menu is delicious. I would eat the napkins if they said they’re edible. Love Chinese and haven’t eaten? Leave Austin.
Tangerine beef was wonderful. Very nice place and atmosphere. Great quality, but it is much more expensive than the tips make it look like.
Came for lunch , have never had such amazing eggplant .
The Soup Dumplings and Eggplant are so bomb. Come with friends and try a bit of everything! It's all great ????????
Green beans , spicy wontons , soup dumplings , tangerine beef , salt & pepper squid were all delicious. Only thing that disappointed was the wine , but that's because my GF likes small, boring reds.
The soup dumplings were lovely, Wu Chow has a great vibe and I can't wait to try their dim sum
The tenderloin pork steam dumplings were very good, 5 for 8. I'm a student, the one $ is not accurate for me, but maybe for richer people.
Soup dumplings are amazing! The cocktails are great too. Some served in fun containers. The place is definitely not cheap .
The soup dumplings are overrated, but everything else was so good, we went back 2 days later. Bottomless water and Diet Coke made it great.
Everything we tried was fantastic both for dinner and dim sum ! I loved the lion head meatballs !
The okra is the best I've ever had
It's a cool atmosphere and I liked that the waiters are knowledgeable about the food. The pancake and chicken bao are good.
The seafood birds nest is unique and fresh. The soup dumplings came leaking, but nobody is perfect
We had the Soup dumplings , green beans and yu xiang pork tenderloin and everything was delicious!
It's a pretty fancy place . They serve great drinks and the food's good.
Pretty decent Chinese in down town . Green beans , salt and pepper shrimp
Great atmosphere, good service , crispy noodles were excellent
Sichuan won tons , mala ribs , egg custard tarts , pineapple buns !
Top tier Chinese food at a fair price ! You won't be disappointed.
Soup dumplings are LEGIT. If you've gone to Joe's Shanghai in NYC you'll like them here. Obsessed with the homemade chili oil ! Thanks CK! ????????
Soup dumplings and tangerine beef are mind-blowing.
Singapore noodles or tangerine peel beef . Good strong cocktails
Green beans and Singapore noodles (if you like spicy food ).
Cabagge and Guam Pao chiken and dumplings
The sichuan deep-fried chicken is amazing!
Green beans and chicken . ????????

The dim sum is amazing!
Had a second order of soup dumplings for dessert
Great soup dumplings .

Favorite brunch !
SOUP DUMPLINGS 4EVAAAAAAAA
Soup dumplings
Honestly not sure what the hype is... everything we had was mediocre at best - minus the soup dumplings , which were excellent. The green beans didn’t stack up against all the amazing reviews ????????♀️
This mix of texmex with Chinese is both unique and delicious! - Deborah Chang
Great dim sum and Asian fusion spot. Def try sui mai, soup dumpling, bake choy & mushroom, and scallion pancake! - Sandeep Madhur
This is a great place for authentic, but approachable Chinese food. The staff isn't super fluent in English, but that shouldn't deter anyone as they are very friendly. The restaurant is very clean! - Justin Young
The pirate cocktail is so cool! Also, the charcuterie was really nice, especially the duck liver mousse - Jonathon Taylor
Great, tasty cocktails. Quiet, dark atmosphere. Great for happy hour and waiting our traffic in downtown Austin. Located truly in a parking garage. - Sara
Hibiscus and ginger mojito is fantastic! And so is the goat cheese salad. - Emma
