    Veggie Dumplings!!
    Bite M.

    Great seat super stuffed veggie dumplings!! First time won't be the last !! Sweet spot!

    Double Happiness Fried Rice with pork belly and Chinese sausage
    Evelyn F.

    The area around this shop is cute, with many little clothing, book and jewelry stores, lots of food options. The atmosphere here is very mom & pop style, basic seating. I ordered the shrimp har gow ($10) and the double happiness fried rice ($15). The har gow was just ok, not super flavorful, the shell wasn't as fresh and bouncy as I'd hoped. It came with an interesting fried frame. The double happiness fried rice was definitely more worth it for the price and yummy. There were 3 big pieces of tender pork belly, a flavorful green sauce, and a big portion. Glad one of the two items I ordered was worth the visit. Not sure if the other dumplings live up to the hype. Service was helpful, if not particularly friendly. Wouldn't say this is a must try, but good to try if you're nearby and curious!

    Woah a hidden gem in CARROLL GARDENS !! this place has been here for a while but I'm just trying it and wow ! Such great food- fresh dumplings- not frozen- hot and ready to eat. I ordered inside to go and sat outside to eat. Quick and easy meal. I got the shrimp which was perfection by itself.. veggie was great too but lacking flavor a bit. Service was helpful right when I walked in. The place and ambiance is nothing special at all, which is why I've never walked in. But the food speaks for itself. My new go to Friday night take out and movie meal.

    Pretty good dumplings and other small bites. Stop in by chance. Was not disappointed by anything. Will return when I'm back in the neighborhood

    Pork bun and mango boba
    DJ L.

    It's a cute little place, and the staff is friendly. I ordered the pork and chicken buns which were both very tasty. To drink I ordered the mango boba and while it's alright, it definitely leaves something to be desired. I think the boba bubbles were somewhat bland and it affects the sweetness of tea which was otherwise pretty good.

    Left over bubbles and amount of bubbles they give.
    Helen L.

    I went in to get a mango bubble tea. This is the worst bubble tea Ive ever had. You can tell the bubbles and tea are left over from at least one day before. $6 for left over bubbles and tea? This is very disappointing.

    I want to start off by saying that I am an impatient person, and I realize that. But because I realize that, I try to be more patient with things if that makes sense LOL. Anywayssss, you'll see why that matters in a bit. My friend and I came here last Saturday around 5pm. I went up to the counter to order to-go because we have a Shihtzu with us, and restaurants typically don't welcome dogs. They didn't have a problem at all with us sitting near the front door where there were two chairs meant for people waiting, which is definitely a nice touch. I waited about 15min before I decided that I've been patient enough. I asked one of the waitresses about my order. She asked what I'd ordered and came back 2min later saying that it will be another 5min. Ladies and gents, I know my dumplings and they typically take 5min to cook. So this tells me that in the 15min I've been working on my patience, they hadn't done anything for my order... (I was FUMING.) Also I don't want to claim that I know how to run a restaurant, but I've eaten at enough places to sort of know their inner workings. Typically carryout orders aren't placed in the order of arrival, rather they're typically moved up in the line because people aren't there enjoying the ambiance. During my wait, I saw multiple tables get served. I understand that they placed their orders before me. What bothered me a bit was that they already had food. I personally wouldn't have had a problem if they were empty handed and were served first, but because they already had food, my understanding is that restaurants typically wouldn't mind having them wait a bit while they fulfill takeout/carryout orders. I guess I should speak a little to the flavors too. Because it was carry out, it wasn't as crispy which is no ones fault. The filling had a lot of meat, I ordered the dry beef one which tasted almost a little like lamb? It was $8+tax+tip for 5. I wouldn't say it should be considered a cheap eat but it is on some cheap eat lists. The sauces were all standard out of the bottle stuff like Siracha, nothing home made which was disappointing. Overall, it could hit the spot if you're starving, but nothing to rave about. With the service I had, I doubt I'll be returning unless one of my friends really wants to try. I'd get the noodles next time I think haha. Man, I really wanted to like this place :(

    Vegetarian dumplings $7
    Johanna B.

    My pitstop snack at East Wind Snack Shop was a pure delight. I have been meaning to try it since it is a new addition to Smith Street. I wasn't aware it was table service so when I arrived, I was greeted and told to take any table. The menu included a variety of dumplings, rice dishes, beverages and snacks. Since I only wanted and craved dumplings, I selected the Vegetarian. They seemed busy and must take pride in preparing the dumplings as it took some time to make its way to my table. But when they did, my eyes looked at them dreamily. They were perfect and colorful, garnished with scallions and I think, edamame paste (not entirely sure). When I placed my order, I was informed that the dumplings were pan seared but with a steamed finish. A variety of hot sauces and soy sauce were on every table. As I took my first bite (5 dumplings for $7 and prices/portion size varies according to meat or seafood), I was in heaven. I loved how the dumpling was filled with lots of good veggies (red cabbage, carrots and scallions) from one end to the end. They were stuffed! The flavors were excellent and one side of the dumpling had a seared/crispy texture. I observed that the dough was ever so slightly thick/sticky. East Wind Snacks is a perfect place to get your dumpling fix without trekking to Chinatown. They also have a variety of rice dishes to create a more filling meal, but the 5 dumplings I savored were delicious, satisfying and a pocketful of bliss. Give it a try.

    Probably some of the best dumplings I've ever had. The dried beef potstickers are shaped like mini buns. They pack full of ginger flavor and have water chestnuts to give it crunch. It's been a long time since I've tried dumplings with a different spin on them. Most other dumpling spots serve the classic chive and pork. They have multiple locations around New York. I also tried the Hong Kong cakes and wasn't too impressed. Would definitely be back to try their har gow and pork dumplings. Cheers!

    Juicy Pork Dumplings
    Peter D.

    I'm so excited. I'm so excited...and I'm only a little scared. Here's why: 1. Anything new that opens on Smith Street gets me going. It's my backyard, and I love new places that will serve me food. 2. Anything new that opens on Smith Street that isn't Thai or sushi is to be celebrated. It's not that I'm opposed to Thai or sushi, the market is just oversaturated and we need variety. 3. I've been hearing about East Wind Snack Shop's delicious dumplings for years, but for some reason I haven't made the arduous trek...like a mile away. 4. The rumors are true. East Wind Snack Shop serves delicious dumplings. I walked in on Friday evening after my fair share of happy hour beverages (and my wife's share as well, seeing as how she wasn't drinking). As I went over the (nice and tight) menu, I asked when they opened. The dude behind the counter told me it was just a few hours ago. I knew I wouldn't have let something like this slip by me for long. The shop is small, with just a counter where you order, and a few tables (although there is a backyard, and it is backyard season) to post up and eat if you're sticking around. We ordered the original Juicy Pork Dumplings, the Dry-Aged Beef Potstickers, the Incredible Har Gow Shrimp Dumplings, and the Housemade Chow Fun Noodles w/beef. Just a taste. There was a slight hiccup as they initially gave us the Double Happiness Fried Rice (with pork belly AND Chinese sausage) instead of the chow fun, but I think we can cut them some slack when they are hours old. In actuality, I wanted to order the rice anyway (so maybe the guy at the counter is telepathic), but my wife was all about the chow fun and she doesn't care about anyone's happiness being doubled, least of all mine. We brought our food home, and I must say...these are very, very tasty dumplings. They are clearly high quality, made with care, and I have no doubt that I will be eating them on a regular basis. I'm normally a classic pork guy, but the dry aged beef were the winner for me. All were excellent though, and I love that each dumpling is completely unique, with the delicate har gow differing drastically from the other two. If I could change anything,I'd just ask for the addition of a dumpling sauce instead of just straight soy and sriracha. I love the vinegary kick of a classic ginger/scallion dumpling sauce. The chow fun wasn't exactly what I was expecting either. The housemade noodles were indeed the wide, flat ones reminiscent of a pad kee mao, and in actuality it resembled a Thai dish in a lot of ways (topped with bean sprouts, chilis, and more). The portion of noodles was actually smaller than I would've guessed, but there was plenty of the tender beef included, and the overall effect was definitely tasty. All in all, I'm looking forward to working through the short menu (should only take another visit or two), and finding out what Hong Kong Hotcakes are, and whether or not they're as tasty as they sound.

    Read about the restaurant in Grubstreet and the chef makes 'Dragon Beard Candy! What is dragon beard candy? It's sugar and maltose syrup that forms a ring. From that ring, one stretches the ring and twist to form a second ring. The ring turns into many strands of rings. The point is to generate 12,000 strands of rings. So why is it called dragon beard? After all the stretching of the candy strands, it look like a dragon beard when you hold the strands up. When we arrived at the restaurant, we read that the dragon beard's is only available on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays on the menu. It was Wednesday, so we were disappointed. The waitress was nice while answering all our questions and checked in on us. The place is not big about 20-25 seats. The kitchen is in the back and the restroom (1) is next to the kitchen. There is a lot of foot traffic considering the restaurant's grand opening was this past Tuesday. We decided to try the following: Appetizers: (small paper containers) - Pork Dumplings (5) - the skin is a bit thick but I liked the bite size morsels. - Beef Potstickers (4) - didn't find this as tasty which I was surprised but it could be the dry-aged beef - Pork Belly Bao - the restaurant modern take on pork buns - this is open face bun though I ate the pickled pickles separately since it didn't go together for me. It's pork belly on bun -- can't go wrong. Entrees: (large paper containers) - Happy Buddha Vegetables - 1 side is rice with furikake (rice seasoning) and the other side is mixed vegetables including string beans, leafy greens, mushrooms, and bean sprouts. This was a bit bland though with a bit of soy sauce it was ok. - Double Happiness - Chinese sausage, fried rice and pork belly - this is delicious that we ordered a second one. Dessert: - Dragon's Beard Cotton Candy - Guess what! The owner, Chris Cheung, arrived and the waitress asked if we are interested in the dragon beard. Yes! He told us how he learned the dragon beard from his wife's uncle and it's a street food. For me, making dragon beard is an item that is becoming a lost art since it's time consuming to make and inexpensive ingredients. This dish is a fancier version than I have eaten. After the dish arrives, you should eat it quickly. This version becomes hard pretty quickly when it cools down though considering he learned it one year ago it's not bad. The filling is peanuts and sesame. Chris adds coconut flakes, peanuts and another item on top of the dragon beard and includes lollipop sticks to make it fun and if you don't want to get your hard sticky. All the food is served in take out paper containers (see pictures). Thank you for making the dragon beard for us and bringing back the art to NY! I haven't had it in a while and it was a treat. Some of my friends never had it so it was new to them. Another learned the English name. One thing: if you are sitting at the table by the door, the door doesn't closed automatically so if it is a cool evening like Wednesday night, it can get cold since folks walk in but doesn't close the door. Hope you get to enjoy the food.

The steamed spare ribs were hot, tender, and flavorful; the taro pieces mixed in were great too. The chicken feet were cut in half for convenience and the taste and texture were spot on.

The Yelp waitlist is useless here - wait was supposed to be 5-10 minutes and it turned into almost 40. All this could have been avoided with more planning, better organization, and training. Kitchen staff doing their job well. Front of house needs work.

Baked Pork Pastry was a little meh, it was extremely rich and ours was in that awkward in-between temperature. - Chive dumplings are pretty shrimp-forward, good, but shrimp-forward. - If there's something you want and it doesn't make its way to you, ask!

The duck dumplings go BONKERS fr -- though I'm not the biggest fan of the gummy rice wrappers on dim sum, the actual duck meat itself was nothing short of mesmerizing. The small cubes of meat were incredibly tender and maintained the perfect ratio of fattiness to flesh, all enveloped in a rich brown sauce. Oh the goddamn Jiu Cai Jiao dumpling was a sleeper pick --, the succulent shrimp was starkly contrasted by the eye widening bright freshness of the chives. Like biting into a rain forest. The general Tso (yeah I ordered gtao suck me, it balances the other fresher and or spicier dishes well when eaten in tandem) was absolutely incredible -- the chicken was primarily breast meat and still managed to be succulent, while the breading itself was paper thing and crisp. The sauce had the perfect cornstarchy goopiness and was packed with fresh ginger and garlic. Highly recommend.

We all really enjoyed the soup dumplings (I requested a second order). The wonton noodle soup was spot on as well as the spring rolls, sesame noodles, and spicy cucumbers.

    Golden Wuish: A modern Chinese spot in FiDi that delivers on the experience…read more Came back to celebrate another friend's birthday and the service was phenomenal! It's a true fine-dining atmosphere where the food quality actually matches the aesthetic Flaming Peking Duck ($123): 5/5. A total showstopper and worth every penny Spicy Beef Stir-Fry ($29): 5/5. Super tender and juicy with a perfect spicy kick. Good portion size too! Sichuan Wonton ($15): 5/5. Big, meaty, and that numbing spice was spot on Crying Tiger Steak ($28): 4.75/5. Small portion, but incredibly tender and flavorful. Although the pairing with corn was a little off to me Clay Pot Rice ($25) & Duck Egg Pea Shoots ($21): 4.75/5. Reliable classics that never disappoint. Squid Ink Fried Rice ($30): 4/5. A bit bland on its own, but works well as a base for the bolder dishes Black Truffle Soup Dumpling ($19): 3/5. Although you do taste the truffle this was my least favorite, the soup was lukewarm, the skin was a bit rough Overall, a fantastic spot for a special occasion in Lower Manhattan!

    I came here for dinner with a friend and we had a great time! We had a reservation and got seated…read moreimmediately. The restaurant has dim lighting and lots of seating. There is a bar that plays music and service was overall great! Our server checked in on us often and was kind. The food was good as well. The Peking Duck was crispy and a little fatty, and the sauce had a bit of oil which I have never seen before. The standout here were the wrappers, they were perfectly thin and chewy. Though it was not the best duck I have had, it is still reputable. The steamed seabass was also delicious! I love how tender and melty the fish was, and the claypot rice was also good! The crispy rice and umami seasoning was on point. Overall we had a great time dining here!

    Went here on a Thursday night to catch up with some friends. I'm not really a big sushi person, but…read moreI've been giving it more of a chance lately. The ambiance is calm and cozy -- definitely a good spot whether you're grabbing a couple drinks, a quick bite, or sitting down for a full dinner. I ordered the Joker roll, and that's where things started to click for me with sushi. The tuna and avocado paired with the spicy red sauce really made it stand out -- honestly tasted great and something I'd get again. Also had the Mongolian steak with rice, which was another highlight. Presentation was fire -- it comes out still heating on a hot platter, which makes the whole experience feel elevated. Flavor matched the presentation too. Service was solid overall, no real issues there. The only downside was with a deal they were advertising ("3 for $33"). It was shown on their website and even posted outside the restaurant, which was actually one of the main reasons we chose the spot. When we tried to use it, we were told they weren't honoring it that night and that the deal had been causing them to lose money. I understand adjusting pricing if something isn't working, but if that's the case, the promotion should be removed or clearly communicated ahead of time. Having it still advertised and then not honoring it was frustrating and took away from the experience. Overall: good food, nice vibe, and a solid option in Brooklyn -- just make sure to double-check any deals before going.

They promote happy hour and it's good but, I'm going to say it "They SHOW NOTHING BUT, SPORTS Channels" Like it's so annoying. Ok but the food is really good, the fried rice is everything. All of them. And the happy hour menu you CAN NOT TOP prices awesome. Service is amazing as well, I mean they put up with me bitching about the TV all the time. And the worst part is that I bring my phone to watch. So am I just bitching... ugh Anyway see yall in a few weeks
