You can not find a better place in china town. This place is top tier and it has everything you could want. It was incredibly fast and the food was hot and fresh. The fried tiny buns are a must order by far. I would also recommend the beef w broccoli, fried rice and soup dumplings. There were other things on the menu that looked amazing but we didn’t get to try like the fried pork dumplings, beef lo Mein and peanut noodles. The noodles looked thick and saucy. It’s cash only so bring some cash but everything is priced under $10 except for the mains at dinner. We ordered 6 things and it was $45 . We couldn’t finish it because the portions are so huge. You can’t get a better meal for the price in NYC.
Best Asian food we had in a while. The dumplings are fresh and really tasty. The portions are big, so do not order too many at once from the menu. The staff is friendly and the service is fast. Above all the prices are good too.
5 star stop on your way through Chinatown. The staff is very attentive and your food comes out quickly. The scallion pancakes were delicious. Also had the roast pork chowfun. The small steamed dumplings were excellent
Large menu, simple and quick Chinese food. Known for buns, dumplings, and some noodle dishes.
5 stars for price + food. Service and atmosphere were eh, even for a Chinese restaurant felt a little off but no complaints. Cash and venmo are the only two forms of payments.
Highly recommend getting the hot & spicy wontons or the pan fried pork dumplings. Ask for some chili oil on the side as well.

Hot and sour was great, spicy noodles were the best of the three dishes we got. General Tso with white meat was meh - chewy and didn't have much heat. Seafood pasta was also tasty with tons of seafood in the dish. Note even at lunch the dishes are pretty sizable so heads up if you don't want a lot. Pork Potstickers came out last for some reason but they had a lot of taste (8 total) and loved how they were cooked. Staff was attentive and kept coming back for anything we needed.
A nice authentic Chinese resturant in the middle of China town. They serve all kinds of Chinese food.
Tasted the fried pork dumplings and vegetable, they were good.
They have a lunch offer that until 3:30.
The resturant is Always busy and full of people, but they serve food really quick.

Great soup dumplings ($9) - best in Chinatown so far! Huge fried mini buns ($9). Big portion of cold Drunken chicken with wine ($10). All very good. 6/23
7/23. Went back for a second visit. Got the lunch (before 3:30pm) special: 3 dishes from list of 20, for $24, included hot and sour soup and rice. Portions are half a regular order. The General Tso’s chicken was spot on. The Mapo Tofu was lightly spicy. The vinegar pork chop was cut thin, deep fried and had a black vinegar sauce. All were pretty good. The smaller lunch portions allowed for a variety of dishes.
