Kung pao chicken texture was quite nice. The chicken was partially deep-fried before hitting the wok. It gave the pieces a nice, light crispiness. They portion size was fine for the $27 lunch price tag, which is probably the most expensive kung pao chicken I've ever had so far. Good ratio of chicken and peanuts. The sauce was on the sweeter side, which unfortunately muted any real spiciness and savoriness. The heat level was also very mild. The sauce itself was also a tad "wet" and thin, whereas I personally prefer a thicker glaze that really clings to everything. Interesting twist was the addition of sambal chili in their recipe. Definitely not a typical choice and gave it a unique flavor profile. read more

Food 3.5, ambulance 4, service 2.5 Our group of 8 foodies came for dinner last evening, on a regular basis we try a restaurant picked by one of the members. My pick this time Glad we made reservation in advance, the restaurant was fully booked as it was moon festival last night First time for most of us since they changed owners, we had high hopes. The interior is still beautiful as I remembered from two years ago, ordered via the QR code without help can be challenging. The young waiter was trying very hard running around, friendly and helpful if you can get his attention but clearly they were severely short staffed for a busy night. We ordered a total of 10 dishes plus streamed rice, food took a while to show up and sporadically. We ordered mostly non spicy dishes except for 1, and the group reviews are as follows. Good and repeatables: -Whole roast duck, for $28 is such a steal. Unfortunately it finally brought to the table almost 1.5 hours after ordering. We were mostly done with the dinner. Not sure why they can be better prepared anticipating a full house. Some of us thought the flavor was lacking while others preferred the less salty version. Very good duck -walnut shrimps, very large prawns fried with light batter, not overly mayo'd which we liked -Roast pork belly, tofu clay pot, large portions of fried tofu with shitaki mushrooms and chunks of tender pork belly. Excellent - steam whole fish, clean and fresh tasting -beef Chow fun, we had two orders. Decent/ good. - stir fried bok choy, fresh and tasty As a group we didn't enjoy a few dishes: -walnut ribs, good price for the portion size but the ribs were dry with a strangely sweet sauce, walnuts were a little stale - stir fried lamb, very very spicy , only one person was able to eat it. Small portion for $27 was our least favorite -preserved meat with dried long beans.... Well, not very attractive looking, small portion, can't taste the smoke meat. Not recommended. Our total after 18% tips came to $300 which is not bad. The dinner took 2.5 hours which was a bit too long. Imho If the operation is more efficient with proper staffing, the business could be doubled. We will be back but avoid peak time and hopefully the operation will run smoothly. read more

4.5 STARS Cupertino is being put on the map in an upcoming TV legal drama series where there's zero AZN representation. Who knows, maybe they couldn't afford BD Wong or Riz Ahmed. Cupertino is like a suburban Chinatown but just like this TV show, it's crazy to me that there's zero Canto Delis (99 Ranch doesn't count)... I'm talking the likes of Hing Lung aka Go Duck Yourself, Cheung Hing, Ming Kee, Kam Po, etc. in the city. And, while you can get roast duck at dim sum spots in Cupertino, IMO...they're not that great. Coming from the city, Jade Xiang Yue makes one of the best, if not the best roast duck in The Bay (to me)! The duck is perfectly rendered with juicy, flavorful meat encased in a thin, glossy, crispy skin. Savory, slightly sweet, and ridiculously good without being overly salty...it's made even better with the side of plum sauce which adds a nice, sweet-tart tang. AND, the best part...half a roast duck is only $15!!! I mean when a tiny 1-bedroom shack goes for $2 mil in Cupertino, you can't beat this deal! O T H E R I N F O * Jade Xiang Yue is owned by the same people behind Jade Tea Garden. The resto changed its name several months ago, kept the old sign, and dropped their dim sum menu. They currently serve Canto and Hunan cuisine. * Order via QR code but you need to pay bill with the server, -- NOTE: The $15 Half Roast Duck is listed below the $19.99 Half Roast Duck, so keep scrolling to find the cheaper option. * We tried one Hunan dish: Beef Tendon + Tripe Dry Pot ($27.98) - flavorful, garlicky, and spicy but the proteins needed to be cooked longer to reach the ideal soft, chewy texture. * The Stir-fried Bok Choy ($15.98) was expertly cooked so it's silky smooth while retaining a fresh crisp. * Hella fast food service, we received our entire order in 5 minutes. Transactional customer service so don't expect check-ins. We had to request the bill several times. * Spacious dining area with odd, still videos playing on the jumbo screen. read more

Pretty solid chinese food! We came on a Friday during lunch time, and there were a decent number of people but we were still able to get seated right away. The roasted duck is a must try. It's my favorite item from here, the skin is so thin and crispy and the meat is really flavorful. We also got the spicy green beans but they were WAY too spicy that we couldn't eat them. They were so kind to cook us a new plate without spice tho which I really appreciated :) Those were really yummy but still a bit salty. Mapo tofu wasn't as spicy as it looks, and tofu was soft but it is really oily, so I probably wouldn't get that again. The cucumber salad was yummy! I liked the garlicky vinegar taste to it. We also got this mushroom pork dish that I really enjoyed. Honey walnut shrimp is always a solid option. I loved how big and crispy the shrimp were and the honey glaze is so yummy. Sizzling beef was also super tasty. XO beef noodles were good too, but a bit oily. Overall, very solid chinese food options but some can be a bit salty or oily. read more

Excited to try this new place which used to be in the old Joy Luck Club location in Cupertino Village. The Hunan-style Beef was amazingly good and our favorite, but everything was very well done. They had a super cheap peking duck deal (not sure how long that is going to last) that was great. Loved the beef chow fun too. Happened to watch the World Cup here while eating as there are a lot of screens. This place is legit and so authentic that Chinese parents will enjoy it if you treat them here. Perfect for special occasions. We'll be back! read more

We went during an assuming Wednesday and it was a good no fuss restaurant. During weekday lunch time, they didn't have dim sum like regular Cantonese restaurants. Instead, we ordered from the menu directly. Food was prepared very quickly and everything was flavorful and tasty. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The insides of the restaurant looks like a grand hall and was very beautiful with intricate details and decor. read more

(4.5 stars, rounding up to 5.) We stopped by to try their rice noodles and will definitely be making this place a regular stop in our restaurant rotation. This place seems to go by different names - the sign says Jade Garden, the name on yelp is Jade Xiang Yue, and on DoorDash it's some noodle restaurant. The food took a little time to arrive - about 15 minutes. We ordered the bbq pork over rice noodles, the roast duck over rice noodle, soy sauce chicken over rice noodle and a side of chicken fried rice. All of the meats were solid and flavorful traditional Chinese bbq items. The duck had a nice crispy skin and the bbq pork was the right balance of meaty and fatty, and tender. The chicken was perfect as well. The dishes were served over a choice of noodle - we went for the rice noodles as we heard they're known for them, and we were really happy with them. Think spaghetti but rice noodle - much more substantial than say, pho noodles. They're very fresh and chewy and served with a small amount of a soup-like sauce in the bottom of the bowl which adds flavor and richness. The chicken fried rice honestly blew us away - the sheer volume was huge. But more than that, it was delicious with good quality chicken and yellow kernels of rice that were individually coated and flavored - the sign of a high quality fried rice. My wife is Chinese and said this was some of the best fried rice she's had in the South Bay. The restaurant itself is humble but has modern and clean decor. Service was good and you order through an app. Parking is easier than some places in this shopping center since there's a big parking garage right next to the restaurant. We will be back to try more items! read more

The front sign "jade tea garden ", actually the Chinese name is " jade Xiang yue ". The dishes here present two major Chinese cuisine-- Xiang and Yue. The atmosphere is great, luxurious golden glory wine shelves really light up the room. And crystal dragons and clean wall and up to date touch ups. The waitress welcomed us right away when we walked in. By 7pm on Tuesday, there are ten tables. Meanwhile discovered one private room for bigger party like 10people size. I tried two Xiang dishes, two Yue dishes ( attached in the photos). Except the fish belly soup lack of the Yue cuisine essential flavor , need little more cooking time. Impressive roasted duck skin, crispy and crunchy, meat is juicy. The two stirred fried Xiang dishes are good. And the dessert , so far the best I tried in the Bay Area-- brown sugar sticky rice roll. Be cautious about the inside hot running brown sugar soup. This is fancy place for friends and family gatherings, personally don't think its options are kid's favorites. Price wise, really reasonable align with the quality and value, also the convenience. read more

Horrible experience, small portion, super slow service. No waiter around. Taste is ok

Im pleasantly surprised by this place. It was a dim sum place before which was quite good. So I was disappointed to find out this is a different one now. But the dishes - with a combo of Cantonese and Hunan - 2 types of cuisine - on the menu are quite good. Had a half roasted duck which is on promo for only $15. Very good. Crispy skin, tender meat and flavor all in. Rate as 5 Garlic scape with preserved pork stir fry. Very flavorful. Human is know for its preserved pork and this didn't disappoint. Also a 5 Also ordered fried lotus root box which is 2 slices of lotus root with meat inside and fried with a thin coating. It is not bad with could use a bit of salt and ideally more flavorful dipping sauce than the sweet chilli which is more like Thai style. It's a 3.5. This place is spacious and service is good. It has water tank with big live crabs and lobsters always a good sign to see Will come back to try more Hunan dishes and the duck. read more

This was my second time here. First, was for a funeral banquet and the employees did an excellent job. The food was very good. We had sweet & sour pork, beef & Chinese vegetables, beef chow fun, duck, and other items. I asked if we could order these items again but they said we could only order off the menu. The signage is a bit confusing. This place was Jade Garden but they closed. The sign is still up. It's now Jade Xiang Yue. It's spicy Hunan dishes and also Cantonese dishes. We came for my Mother's 85th Birthday. Even with handicapped parking, it is a bit of a walk. But there was plenty of parking on a Wednesday evening and quite a few open tables. There were families and couples. We were seated by the hostess and then she walked away. There was a QR code on the table. You will need a cellphone to order off their QR code. Even with that, I was able to click on what we wanted to order but I was unable to pay and order it. We flagged down a nice employee and she tried to help me on my iPhone, then she got an iPad and her iPad got stuck so she had to put in two orders for us. Table was good size and all the customers were spread out. The tv screen had one big picture with background music. We had the walnut pork ribs. They were a bit sweet. The Cantonese roast duck was crisp and fatty. Royal chicken was fresh. Hunan style stir-fried beef was tender. Black pepper beef short ribs was okay. Braised pork belly and tofu clay pot was much better. Steamed sea bass was good. We ordered 7 dishes for 7 of us and 3 servings of rice so there was enough food. We didn't take home the leftovers because all the dishes were on the salty side for us. We were expecting a fixed tip on the receipt because there was 7 of us but there wasn't which is nice since you order yourself and they drop off the dishes. read more

5 stars for their food. In particular their roast duck was excellent. One of the best I have eaten anywhere in the world! Sounds over the top, but true! Their cumin lamb dish was quite good, more sauce plus slightly sweeter than the traditional kind. Their cold jelly noodle was excellent. While food was excellent, the wait for food was terrible. We came in around 1130am, hardly anyone around, but our main dishes were served only like 30-40mins later. The appetizer came out early and then nothing. Service was ok, efficient, so efficient that after waiting for 30-40mins for the food, they hurried us out at the end because "there are people waiting for the table"... Well, if the food came out quicker ... Overall, I recommend the food, disappointed by the wait time. read more

I've been to this restaurant twice recently. The food is good, and the prices are reasonable. The Roast Duck and Assorted Mushrooms were especially impressive. The service was good as well. Three large 4K screens are side by side on the back wall. My first time visit is during the World Cup, and watching the game there was very enjoyable. Overall, it is a very good Chinese restaurant with serving stir-fried dishes. I'll definitely be back! read more

We had a wonderful meal at Jade Xiang Yue. It was pretty empty when we first got there at 6pm, but it started filling up soon afterwards. The service was great and they were helpful with recommendations. I would recommend getting the roast duck and shrimp fried rice, which is an elite combo. We ordered the pork intestine stir-fry, which was nice and spicy. The brown sugar mochi was good as well. read more

Second visit and this time is for dinner. We were tempted by the 4th of July special of Peking Duck set $39.99 (menu price is $59.99!) or Lobster E Noodle ($29.99). Dinner service was much better, more attenuative. Tea was free and once we showed the city coupon, we were able to enjoy the Peking Duck set at the discounted price. Food came in on a reasonable time and the portions are big. The house special seafood fried rice is pan fried with enough wok heat. The Peking Duck came with scallion threads and a sauce and a basket of steamed buns. The duck meat under the skin were cooked to perfection, soft and juicy, the drums were slightly dry. But overall it's quite tasty. We had better dining experience during dinner than dim sum and we felt confident at their food quality. read more

This is a relatively new restaurant that has two sections. There is the main restaurant section and a more "fast food" section on the other side. Both sections share the restroom that is in the corridor that connects the two sections. My review is mostly regarding the main restaurant section. The Chinese name of the restaurant means a combination of Hunan and Cantonese cuisine. I have a feeling the Cantonese part is mainly the leftover of the previous restaurants on the same premise before the current ownership/name change. The Hunan cuisine here is pretty good to be in the top enchelon. Food is spicy and flavorful correctly. I wouldn't say it's the best there is but it's way better than your average Hunan food. My only complaint would be the portion could be bigger. I think they did a good job with stir fried pork with peppers even when you choose the non spicy version. As I said the dishes are very flavorful. The frogs are very tender but portion is tiny for the price you pay. I love the crunchy pork stomach. It's different from other hunan restaurants I've had but wouldn't say it's worse. What came as delightful surprise is the actual roasted duck. This totally falls into the Cantonese part of the food menu but it's very very well done. The duck skin is crispy properly almost as good as an authentic peking duck skin. The meat is tender juicy and very flavorful. I'd say it's the best Cantonese roast duck I've had in the whole Bay Area. It's pricy for the original price but for the sale price it's a must have. The service is decent and attentive and the place itself is smaller than what the outside would suggest. The decorations can be cheesy but I don't really care and the tables are arranged in a functional way that works well enough. They wanted but give a higher class feel but somewhat fails due to open dining area arrangements of the tables. Overall I think it's a solid 4.5 but due to lack of choices in the Bay Area, I've decided to give it 5 stars instead of 4. read more

To me, the food was very good. It is a mix of Hunan and Guangdong cuisine. Service was pretty standard and waiters were nice. Flavors were great, authentic, and aromatic. I'd come back. I really liked this sizzling pot we got with the short ribs. This fried glutinous rice cake thing we got was also really good and had some date-like syrup on the inside. The inside of the restaurant looks quite nice as well. read more

Really great dim sum spot! Came here on a Saturday for brunch and really liked it! We were seated quickly and they even gave us a large table to make sure we had enough space. There's tons of menu diversity and we were able to order quickly. Some highlights include the fried pork intestine, the congee, and the pork dishes! They also have interesting desserts, which were fun and novel but weren't the best in my opinion. In all, I definitely enjoyed coming here and would come back again! read more

All the dishes taste great, portion is generous and the waiter was very helpful, We have ordered 10 different dishes . I like the dinner dishes more than their dim sum !

They have a separate menu for dinner dishes and not just seafood . Will come back soon to try other items . read more

Stopped here for a quick bite after grocery shopping (LOL) and ended up with a feast. We ordered the roast duck, chicken and the cauliflower. Timing of food delivery was off with the cauliflower coming out a good 15 min before everything else, but everything was delicious and the portions were very generous. The ambiance reminds me of a cruise ship food hall but they had some pretty elements to make it nice and the bathroom is clean and spacious which I appreciated. Would definitely eat here again. I also noticed they had a lot of large private rooms for group events. read more

Restaurant used to be a Cantonese restaurant, therefore, they do offer some typical Cantonese dishes. Ordered spicy green beans, it was spicy but bland, asked for extra spicy assuming more peppers lol not chili powder. Dry pot was the only thing that I thought was good. Frog was expensive and it was just aright, took a long time to come out and I just don't find it worth it. The fried mochi with red sugar inside is not that glutinous at all. I personally wouldn't order it again. Nothing was bad? But it wasn't like super good either? Wasn't really the Hunan cuisine taste that I expected. But do have to give to them that the food was spicy. Bring your own napkins as theirs are super tiny and thin. read more

Jade Xiang Yue - Chinese Near Me - Cupertino, California

I've been to this restaurant quite a few times over the years- when it was Joy Luck Palace, Dynasty Restaurant temporarily, and now. They've done a lot of improvements to the decor and ambiance of the restaurant, it feels very modern and upscale now. The service was also a lot better than previously, though that may be because I went at an off, less busy hour (2pm ish on a Saturday). I had the baked BBQ pork bun, shrimp rice roll, seafood pan fried rice noodle, egg yolk buns, sui mai, and pork ribs. The pork ribs were a little too fatty for my taste, and I wish that the buns had come out a little warmer/fresher tasting, but I was satisfied with the taste and quality of the food otherwise. This was my first time having pan fried rice noodles like this, and I loved having the mix of crispy and non crispy noodles as well as the generous portion of seafood and veggies! read more

Jade Tea Garden is an upscale Chinese restaurant in the heart of the Cupertino Village Plaza with its impressive newly renovated interior, projection logos scattered throughout the restaurant, and intricate ceiling details. The menu is a booklet with many photos of the dishes however, the selection is not comparable to a lot of other upscale Chinese restaurants. They offer a selection of typical Chinese dishes like kung pao chicken, walnut shrimp, fried rice, and chow fun. *Lobster e fu noodles - This dish is incredibly aromatic. Lobster meat was a lot of work but each bite was sweet and meaty. The noodles were sweet and buttery with an eggy finish, pairing well with most of the other dishes we ordered. *Pork jowl with bell pepper - The pork jowl was so good. Each cut was fatty with a nice snappy texture. The bell peppers were interlaced with jalapeños so it was like playing russian roulette heat edition. Its difficult to tell the jalapeno cuts from the bell peppers so it truly did feel like a gamble each bite. I dislike how this wasn't disclosed on the menu to warn you ahead of time. *Salted egg yolk prawn with pumpkin - perfectly fried to a crisp, although greasy. Pumpkin is tender and goes great with the salted egg seasoning. This dish is truly a guilty pleasure. * rock cod fillet tofu clay pot - Rock cod is incredibly soft and melts in your mouth. The braised tofu is seasoned well and soaks up the soy based sauce beautifully. * beef short rib with mushroom & bamboo shots - firstly, it was asparagus not bamboo. I'm disappointed because the dish wasn't as described and I'm not so much an asparagus fan. Other than that, the dish itself was so flavorful. The sauce was so tasty and bold while the beef was melty soft and tender. The mushrooms were juicy and cooked perfectly. * Red bean dessert - this is a complimentary dish so I wouldn't expect too much. Beans and tapioca pearls were soft but the red bean liquid was really watered down and thin in consistency. * corn mango pudding - Flavor is just ok, just a novel cool dessert item to order. I wouldn't order it again honestly. Food quality is a solid 4. We ordered 12 items and found 10 of them to be high quality in both taste and texture. Portion sizes were great for sharing family style. Service is a 3 because for a restaurant that is 30% full on a Saturday night, it was so slow and the waiters seem to be hiding somewhere at all times. Our meal took 2 hours to complete with perhaps the longest part being tracking down a waiter for boxes and the check. Our waiter was constantly shouting at us when speaking to us which may be a cultural practice but can be perceived as rude and unprofessional. One thing I didn't like was how the dishes were mismatched with the utensils. For example, a stringy vegetable dish was paired with a large serving spoon making it impossible to effectively serve. A lot of the dishes didn't make sense for the silverware provided. At least give one spoon and fork for each dish so we can use it like makeshift tongs. I wanted to give this place a 3.5 but the food quality was actually good so I just rounded to a 4 instead. This review is strictly based on dinner so dim sum experience may be significantly different. read more

I was kinda mixed on this one. We came in right when it opened and the inside and the restroom was bad. Apparently, they had a party the night before and did not clean. There were confetti and trash everywhere. Luckily, the food made up for the huge mess and cleanliness. The manager was nice to us, but not too friendly with his colleagues (and I can see why he was frustrated, but never in front of customers). Overall, I will return. The price is reasonable and parking is plenty. Love that they have a ramp for disabled people right in the front. read more

The food and service here is okay. They have a wide variety of dim sum and food such as fried rices, fresh seafood lobster and fish, soups, etc. We also tried the soufflé which was just ok. It was more entertaining to see and eat than having much flavor. The service was okay. This is a restaurant that will charge you for hot tea, which most Chinese restaurants don't, and also charge you for each take out box, so keep that in mind. It also doesn't feel clean in the restaurant, the chairs were sticky. read more

Jade Xiang Yue - Soufflé - Chinese Near Me - Cupertino, California

First visit--solid overall. I ordered three dishes: a fish, a dry pot, and the old-style oil chicken. Top pick: the dry pot. Seasoning was balanced (not too salty), the ingredients were prepped really clean, and nothing was overcooked--still a nice chewy/crunchy bite. It pairs perfectly with rice. The fish was super tender and not fishy at all, but the sauce was very doubanjiang-forward--well made, just not my personal favorite when the doubanjiang is that strong. The oil chicken was new to me and fun to try. Space & vibe: Compared with other Chinese spots in this plaza, the interior here is nicer. Clean dining room, roomy tables, generous space between tables, and high ceilings--so it feels open, not cramped. Not cheap, but the quality is there. I'd come back for the dry pot for sure. read more

3.5 stars for the new Jade Tea Garden. Jade Tea Garden is in the spot where Joy Luck Palace used to be by 99 Ranch on Wolfe. We were so excited to learn a new dim sum place opened up there, as that was our favorite go-to for dim sum and Chinese banquets until it closed. The vibe is very different! The whole wall by the back dining room is covered with huge TVs. We liked the pretty glass floral decorations on the half of the ceiling. They reminded us of Mandalay Bay in Vegas, but it was odd that they only covered the front half of the restaurant. We had to ask for tea, water, & dipping sauces multiple times. They brought us soy sauce, chili oil, and yellow mustard. For dim sum at the new Jade Tea Garden, you make your selections on the menu and then give it to a waiter to submit to the kitchen. We asked a waiter to add an order of sauteed pea leaves w/garlic sauce, as we didn't see that on the menu. She repeated back what we requested, but it never came. We ended up asking someone else to order that for us as well as getting one of our dim sum items that never arrived. We tried a variety of items including fried bean curd roll, sui mai, XLB, salt & pepper wings, gai lan, char sui Cheung fun, and beef chow fun. We also tried their shrimp & corn dumpling, which turned out to be a har gow w/corn. The other item we hadn't seen elsewhere was hom sir gok in the shape of little chicks. Hom sir gok are one of our favorites but these had very little filling. The food was okay and we had to hunt down people to get tea, water, sauces, and the bill. None of us need to rush back, and we will continue to look for our new favorite dim sum place in the south bay. read more

Came through during the soft opening for Jade Tea Garden on a Saturday morning to give this place a try. I was expecting to wait but we got seated right away and saw how big the dining area actually was. I ordered my usual go to dim sum foods: siu mai, har gow, deep fried bean curd roll with shrimp, poached tripe, and shrimp rice noodle roll. I felt like it was pretty standard tasting with the exception of the poached tripe sauce being extra tasty. There's no soy sauce or chili paste at the table but you can request this from a server. It took a bit of time for our orders to arrive (possibly due to staff getting trained up) but the wait is manageable. read more

Jade Xiang Yue - Siu Mai, Shrimp Dumpling (Har Gow), Deep Fried Bean Curd Roll w/ Shrimp, Poached Beef Tripe - Chinese Near Me - Cupertino, California

*Visited on Sunday, 10/13/2024 around 11am with a party of 7 :-) Came here as I have been wanting dimsum for awhile and my cousin in law had recommended as she had recently visited. The restaurant has two entrances, their main one in the front and their back entrance- it also seems that the restaurant in split into two sections. The restaurant is quite large, and plenty of staff members here. We were seated and given a menu where we were able to write in how many orders of items - the usual routine for a dimsum restaurant. The food was tasty and good. We all enjoyed our food and was able to try a little bit of something from each section (perks of going with a large group). I felt like this experience was just another typical dim sum spot- granted it's more modern looking and food came out swiftly. I'd definitely give this spot a try! read more

TLDR: Worth a try. Beef cube w/ Egg Tofu. If you have been a long-time visitor of Cupertino Square, you'll know this place used to be the Joy Luck. We asked our friendly waitress, and she mentioned that this is a completely new owner (not just a re-skin), who has made their money from selling restaurant POS. She wasn't sure if they are first-time restauranteurs, but they are more likely to be. Anyhow, the first thing you notice is how pretty the décor is. Very modern, with the lights and the ceiling and everything. A FAR CRY from Joy Luck, who had that 90's chic, but not retro in a golden memory kinda way. We came during their soft opening, which if you are an expert on Chinese Restaurants, can last anywhere from 1 month to 2 years. When we came, it was a bit crowded, but not TOO crowded. And despite that, we were able to order quickly and get our food as well. So the soft-opening jitters didn't seem to affect this place. Great! My wife was a little bit disappointed in the soup selection. She couldn't find those traditional Hong Kong soups that she loves so much. Instead, she got the Westernized "Chicken and Corn soup". I liked it! Which makes sense, since i'm also a Westernized Chinese... She said it wasn't bad. So that's HK way of saying, "pretty good!" Even though I can't really eat beef, my eyes lit up when i saw Egg Tofu. I LOVE egg TOFU! So I wanted to try the beef cubes with Egg Tofu. Oh man... there's SO MUCH egg tofu! I was in Egg Tofu heaven! Keep in mind, egg tofu is NOT soy-based, and that's what makes it great. It's like eating delicious flavorful tofu! We always have to have veggies, so my wife chose the Fish Maw & Goji Berry w/ Pea Sprouts. She liked the flavor. However, she felt like the sprouts weren't cleaned very well. She should know, she is the VEGGIE Whisperer! The flavor was a little too light for me, but perfect for her, if you wipe away the black stuff sticking on the veggies. I think overall, we enjoyed the meal. The only outstanding dish was the beef w/ egg tofu, which unfortunately, due to my gout, I'm unable to eat much of. However, the taste is good enough to warrant a second visit. I'll see how long they can maintain the quality of cooking. read more

I said we are pretty full since we waited too long. But she got it out right away. Took a bite and just Togo it... read more
