When we leave, a male waiter physically blocked the exit, trapping us inside the restaurant. He aggressively demanded a higher tip, yelling that their minimum tip requirement is 15%. When we refused to comply with this forced fee, he resorted to severe verbal aggression, screaming at us and yelling that we should never come back. Having lived in the US for 20 years, I have never experienced such unsafe, lawless behavior over a tipping dispute. Stay away! Any they delete my Google review.

Better than a lot of places in Flushing & Chinatown and even the San Gabriel Valley in CA! Highly recommend the Salt & Pepper Grouper. It's deep fried and has the same seasoning as the popular Fried Squid with Salt & Pepper, but better! The fish is much more tender than squid. The batter is crispy and not oily at all. Also delicious was the Shrimp with Black Bean Sauce. Not on the menu. Will definitely be coming back in the future to try their other dishes and dim sum as well.

Not sure what happened here.. I've eaten this once at a different location and it was delicious and…read moreamazing. We started with chicken soup dumplings, good but not anything I'd go crazy over. The scallions pancakes are perfect, and between the honey lemonade and scallion pancakes I was ready to come back. Our eyes were sparkling and we were ready for the next round. When our chicken and broccoli finally arrived, after the rice, I was so confused. Something tasted off, and I found myself wondering if it was the serving spoon (used it to eat bc I couldn't wait to ask) soon I discovered it was a fishy smell/taste and was definitely coming from the meal. My husband, finding the same, asked what was in the chicken and broccoli. Our waitress informed us they've heard this before and it's not fish, but mushroom, giving it some flavor which I couldn't hear as she was practically whispering at this point. We replaced it with an order of orange chicken, which was good, but that fish taste ruined the meal for us, honestly. Anyway, not sure if we'll ever be back, but decided to warn others. I googled it, and there's no recipe online but either way, we shouldn't be smelling and tasting rotten fish when having chicken and broccoli. The place looks nice, is it an old gas station?

This restaurant features a minimalist Shanghai-style design, centered around a striking red and…read moregold color palette. Although the decor is simple, the bold use of red and gold makes it highly memorable--and the space is very clean. Even though the bowls and chopsticks are disposable, there's clear attention to detail. The chopsticks feel great to use, and they are even engraved with "上海小笼," which is a thoughtful touch. The bowls are made of thick, sturdy paper, with a beautiful red base and gold rim--both aesthetically pleasing and environmentally friendly. Ordering is done through a self-service kiosk, but there are still staff members nearby. When it's not busy, they are friendly and happy to assist with any questions. The Noodle in Scallion Sauce （上海葱油拌麵） has a rich scallion oil flavor with perfectly chewy noodles, while the Cold Noodle w. Peanut Butter Sauce （麻將涼拌麵） is packed with a strong peanut flavor and equally chewy texture. Both dishes are delicious and taste very similar to Taiwanese sesame noodles. Every dish is served fresh and hot, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality. Whenever I'm in Edison, I can't help but come back to try more items on the menu.

My favorite were the pork juicy buns (soup dumplings) but the most unique thing was the pan fried noodle which was like a crispy deep fried noodle that would soften as it sat in the sauce. The golden lava buns were sweet and rich and perfect for dessert.

For me, this is the go-to restaurant for Cantonese cuisine due to its variety, authenticity, and menu choices. Aside from weekend dim sum, my go-to dish was the chicken pan-fried noodles. I met up with my old colleagues a few weeks ago when I was in the area. I was glad to be able to visit this restaurant again; our original choice was closed on Tuesdays, like many others. Braised Eggplant & Chicken with Salted Fish ($25): A uniquely authentic Hong Kong dish that I rarely get to try. Delicious. I would definitely order it again. Lufa & Fresh Tofu Skin in Chicken Sauce ($22): The tofu skin was a bit tough to chew, but this is another dish that is not commonly available in standard Chinese restaurants. Beef with String Bean ($21): On point. Dry Beef Chow Fun ($20): This is a common dish found in most Chinese restaurants. It was a bit lacking in flavor, but the texture of the chow fun was perfectly rendered. Pork Chop with Salt & Pepper ($19) Another classic fare. Crispy and tasty, with jalapeños to boot. Unlimited complimentary tea was served, and the staff was attentive and friendly. Decors and ambiance were good for any occasion. It was an excellent evening spent at West Lake Plum House.

THE FOOD ----------------…read more+ Very good dim sum all around. ++++ Shrimp dumplings, pork dumplings, chicken feet, pork ribs, sticky rice, mini egg custard tarts, baked roast pork buns, spring rolls, shrimp rice rolls, shrimp and chive dumplings were all excellent. + Variety of dim sum available was comparable to what I would find at most authentic dim sum restaurants anywhere in NYC. + Non-dim sum/Regular menu consist of typical Cantonese-style food/entrees that you will find at authentic Chinese restaurants - seafood entrees, noodles, fried rice, casseroles, etc. THE SERVICE ------------------- + Dim sum push carts go around with dim sum here, which is my preferred way of having dim sum at restaurants. Ask for or point to what you want and the push cart ladies will mark your dim sum card. THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------- + 2 connected dining rooms inside with about the same amount of seating in both. Not a huge restaurant, but ample seating though. + Private parking lot in the front and back of the restaurant. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Came by on Labor Day around 12:15 PM and it was expectedly busy inside, however, we were seated immediately. There was constant turnover inside, so there were never any parties waiting, but most tables were occupied.
