    French Crunchy Special Roll and Chirashi Sushi
    Michael P.

    Came here with a large group and you know what? The sushi was great. Best in the state? Well, not exactly. But the fish was fresh, the service was exceptionally great considering we had 10 people and we had a great time! The chirahashi was a nice dish for a "lighter" option, and when I say lighter, I really just mean I didn't want to fill up on all specialty rolls. Very healthy portion of fish over a bed of rice. I thought the pineapple and bamboo shoots had a bit of an odd flavor, but it was easily ignored. The French crunch roll was very good. A little softer texturally than I was expecting but I enjoyed it a lot. I tried a few other pieces of sushi from friends and honestly, all their specialty rolls were good. Give it a shot for sushi, especially if you need a large crowd accommodated.

    Love Boat

    Hei place is a go to for me if I want a larger amount of sushi at a good price. I highly recommend the Love boat and have yet to find a better Lychee martini in RI. Warning that they are stronger than they taste!

    Udon Noodle Soup with 3 Tempura Shrimp
    Mike F.

    This place never disappoints. The crab Rangoons are deliciously filled with a creamy cream cheese and crab filling. The edamame has a hint of salt and steamed to perfection. Then the Udon noodle soup is great when flavored with a little Hoison sauce. Not to mention it is served with 3 fried shrimp. The service is pretty good as long as you come when it is not packed. Overall if you haven't been here you def need to try. I would give it a 4.5 but 4 is the closest.

    Fired Roll (decent)
    David S.

    Here's an interesting non-fiction anecdote. Once upon a time, two brothers invested over four million dollars into an antiquated pizza establishment in the heart of North Providence, on the bustling Mineral Spring Avenue. This fancy, shiny koi welcoming palace is known as Jacky's Galaxie. Unfortunately, these brothers clashed like two cymbals. One Chef brother split and decided to start his own enterprise. This new venture would be known as Hei Place. It shares ambiance, but is lacking something. The service is average. The food is hit or miss. The location is strategic. Overall, 3.75 with a round up for posterity. Bon appetite!

    Cantonese Noodles with Bean Curd
    Candice S.

    This was my first time dining inside and not getting take out. My takeout experiences are always easy and my order is correct. I usually call ahead or order online. This time we came in for dinner. Wow; it was crowded as there aren't a ton of tables but after a short wait we were seated. The space was clean and service was great. The food took a little while but no complaints because it was very crowded. Our sushi was perfect! It was tasty, rolled properly and no mess/falling apart. Our meals were perfect. The only thing I found a bit weird is that the dinner doesn't come with rice, you have to order some. I'm not sure who just wants to eat a place of sesame chicken and nothing else but other than that no complaints. My drink was also good! We will definitely be back.

    Hot & Sour soup - highly recommended
    Billy C.

    The food is delicious whether your ordering Chinese, Sushi, or appetizers. If you like Hot & Sour soup, Hei Place makes the best! I also recommend the Shrimp Tempura, and the avocado salad

Staff greeted us and got to see it real quick. We and another party was only ones there lunch time. Probably more take out than dine in. Menu selection was huge, so much to choose from. My gf is from china so picked out some noteworthy dishes to try and they did not disappoint! 4/5 stirfry bacon with bamboo shoots was excellent. The bacon is more like the fatty cross section of pork that's thinly sliced. It had a smoky flavor to it which mixes well with the crunchy bamboo and peppers. The spice level was also just right to give the dish a good kick. 3.5/5 fried intestines were also good but just didn't hit as well as the other dishes. Maybe just not crunchy enough. At least also spiced well. 5/5 Salted egg yolk with tofu... I could not stop eating this dish with rice. I don't know what kind of tofu they were using, but it was super silky, but it was also maintaining its form really well in firmness so doesn't break apart in contact. The salty egg yolk flavor balances out with the tofu and rice. It's so it's like a comfort food for me. 4.5/5 beef with Longhorn peppers, definitely on the spicy side, which I love. This dish was a bit softer than normal, but I was fine since we had rice to go with it. The beef strands mixed well with the thin sliced peppers so it was easy chew and the spice packs a punch. Overall, I love this place and will definitely come again when I'm around the area. The menu is so huge that I feel like I have to come back multiple times just to try 80% of the menu.

I have never had a bad meal here, and I always try to be adventurous and try something new each time. With that being said, I always get an order of the Chongqing diced chicken.

The dining area is spacious and cute, and the staff here is always incredibly nice and knowledgeable. Very helpful when there is a lot of dishes you might not be familiar with !

When we went inside, there was only one other party there and no music, so just whispers and the sounds of utensils against plates. There are about 4-5 booths and 1-2 regular tables to choose from. Since l am not familiar with Sichuan cuisine, I had Al help me choose my dishes. I went with the dumplings in chili sauce, fried rice, eggplant in garlic sauce, and chongquin chicken. While we waited, we were given water. The dishes came out at different times. They first served us the dumplings which were really good. The sauce they were in did have some chili sauce, but it was mostly like a sweet soy sauce and really tasty. It came with about 6 dumplings with a perfectly cooked wrapper and filled with flavorful pork - simple but delicious. Next was the eggplant. I was expecting a heavy garlic presence, but it was more like a sweet and sour sauce. The eggplant was very tender, but really hot so we had to wait to let it cool down a bit. The rice came after. I honestly think this was one of my favorite dishes since it was perfectly cooked, great flavor, and good portion. Lastly, the chicken came out. There was a large pile of chicken, but half of it was peppers. The chicken was cut into little bite sized pieces, each fried perfectly. Some pieces were more tongue numbing than others but it was nothing aggressive; very gentle and comfortable numb. I would have liked if there were music, but the no music was fine too; an escape from chaotic reality. Our total was around $50, which wasn't bad for the amount of food we got. I would come back to try other items.

They had to go inside the kitchen to ask the chef and it took like 5 full minutes for this.... - The scallion pancakes had no scallion taste whatsover.

Taste was not as good as before either. - Pan fried noodles with roast pork was ok, but the pork was dry and bland. Not very good tasting. Very disappointed and that was probably my last visit. They had close to a year to keep the quality of the former food and kitchen and it is now focused on standard American Chinese fare, not Authentic.

    I have been on the hunt for the best crab rangoons in Rhode Island and this place came highly…read morerecommended. So I stopped in the other day in between some errands. At first glance, you don't see much from Elmwood Ave, but veer to the right and everything opens up on the left, with a parking lot in the back. Ornate statues lead you to the entrance, and once inside you are instantly greeted with bold colors and beautiful art everywhere. I wanted to take the opportunity to try some Cambodian food, so after some quick research, I opted for Beef Lok Lak, which happened to be one of the lunch combos. I chose fried rice and nime chow for my lunch options and settled back to wait for my feast. They bring you a complementary pot of hot tea, which I enjoyed. I believe it was a straightforward unsweetened black tea. Perfect for me. Before long the rangoons arrived. I literally said "wow" when the runner set my plate down. Beautiful golden brown, small bubbles visible all over the outside, promising crispy goodness. And it delivered. What I didn't expect what the slight chewiness to the wrapper that enhanced the experience. The filling was super creamy and delicious, but I prefer my rangoons with scallions as well. However, that didn't stop me from enjoying every bite. Then my lunch came. The beef was perfectly cooked, the dressing tangy and peppery. The nime chow was herby and super fresh as it should be. And the rice had this extra depth of flavor that made me think of tomato paste? A lovely addition the dish. I had a great meal here and the rangoons are definitely worth having! I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more of their menu!!

For the longest, I thought Apsara on Hope St and this Apsara were the same owners, different locations but I was fooled. They are different, so I came on a Saturday evening with my friend to give this one a try. They have a parking lot but it is small. However, there is lots of street parking around. When we walked in, every table was full and we had to wait about 20-30 minutes to be seated. Since we had time to look at the menu while we waited, we ordered right away: BBQ beef, stir fried thin egg noddle with seafood, and thai garlic chicken wings. While waiting for the food, I had ample time to take in my surroundings, including all the elegant décor around the restaurant including a lot of red and gold colors. Our food came out all together after about 20-30 minutes. The portion sizes were excellent, and all the food was still hot. The beef was cooked perfectly (for me) and cut into manageable strips. It was tender, a hint of sweet, and savory. It came with some sweet pickled shaved radish, cabbage, and carrots with cucumber. This with the meat created a contrast in texture and amplified the sweetness. There was also a clear sauce and that was also really.good. The fried noodles were delicious. They were thin so it seemed like the flavor penetrated inside the noodle. It had a good amount of seafood including big chunks of imitation crab meat, shrimp, and something else I was unfamiliar with. It also had mustard leaves; they weren't bitter, they just had a neutral green leaf flavor (maybe spinach but stronger). The chicken wing order came with about 8 wings, sitting on a bed of cabbage and topped with jalapeno and chili peppers. They were still very hot and crispy, and had a savory and a subtle umelike flavor. I wish the garlic flavor were stronger. I am excited to come back again and try something new on the menu.
