3rd time trying this restaurant(not by choice). It was…read moresadly still the same. The meat was good!(hence the 2 stars). Everything else very bland. (rice and noodles were just boiled with no taste to it) The rice and noodles have 0 flavor or taste. The Peking duck and porkbelly were good. The Beef and Chicken Tjap Tjoi, thanks to the oyster sauce, very tasteful. Only things I actually enjoyed. The "saté with batata" had no flavor also. Was just boiled chicken and potatoes dipped in "peanutbutter". But thats just me comparing the "Antillean Chinese" to the more flavorful "Surinamese Chinese" that I am used to.

Not sure on the Surinamese food factor…read more.. What Ordered the beans and meat and also Bami with roasted meats. The beans and meat was quite a surprise to me as they put chinese Char Siu into this dish. Definitely a new innovation. The Bami with roasted meat was also not what I expected. Overall it was good but not sure the mix of cuisine it is. Definitely big portion and worth for a great deal, but I am leaning more towards this being good for chinese food. Environment Quite big space inside for sitting and eating. Very casual place. Niceness of the staff Very homey and nice staff that are always available to tend to you. Dollar Very worth the money. Portions are big so they are very filling! Yes If I want some chinese food definitely!

Came here to try out Surinamese food for the first time. As a former Dutch colony in South America,…read moreSuriname is not often a country whose cuisine is seen around the world but it is fitting that you can find it in Amsterdam. Turn out it is heavily influenced by Asian cuisine and is much more similar to Chinese food than Dutch/European food. I ordered a classic Surinamese dish of Moksi Meti (€10.50), which was a plate of white rice with pork, chicken, green beans, and moksi sauce. This simple dish definitely had a home-cooked meal kind of vibe. I think the meat was cooked fairly well and was tender and the sauce added some good flavor too. That being said, it was really quite simple, was not that special, and didn't stand out as much as I had hoped. At least the prices are very reasonable. The interior of the restaurant is similar to the dishes in that it is very simple with minimal decor. I think they should really capitalize on the Surinamese theme to add some Surinamese decor and make the place more unique. There was a handful of other people dining in when I was there for weekday lunch. The staff are okay friendliness, although at times it seems like they're just going through the motions to do their jobs. The service speed is super fast though. Overall, I am glad I tried the Surinamese food but was honestly slightly disappointed with the experience. I think it's fine to try for the sake of trying but otherwise you might be better off going somewhere else.

We love to seek the best dim sum places in different cities. We ventured into Hoi Tin today…read moreduring our journey to Amsterdam. Hoi Tin is known for their baked items and D34. Pastry with BBQ Pork was one of the highlights today. The pastry was flaky and the BBQ Pork was seasoned well. The Pan Fried Pork and Chive Dumpling (D20) was the other item worth a positive mention. The glutinous, or sticky rice, was okay. A bit too salty for me and had a charred in the wok flavor which was heavy. The dough of the rice rolls was evenly thick throughout the dish, but not light. To me, it seemed like the rice roll was made in advance as it had a very chewy texture. They look nice and uniform, but I'd rather have something that tastes good. The biggest disappointment is a dim sum staple, Shui Mai (D02). They were luke warm temperature-wise. And the filling lacked flavor. The balance between the shrimp and pork leaned heavily on the pork, which was a bit gristly. The service is standard for a traditional Chinese restaurant. The staff speak English, Dutch, Mandarin, and Cantonese. Very impressive! They are also well staffed for a Chinese restaurant. The ambiance is the standard fare for a Chinese restaurant too. Focus is on seating, not on decor. There are several dining rooms and there is a case of baked goods at the entrance. Overall, they had some good and not so good items. Pick and choose wisely!

This place is great for dim sum and Hong Kong style dishes by Dutch standards. As someone who had…read morelived in places with internationally renowned Chinatowns, Hoi Tin is decent but nothing super spectacular. The restaurant was pretty busy and laid out in a weird place with the toilet up some stairs (not the most accessible). We came for dinner and sadly their bakery was closed and they were out of egg tarts. The beef fried noodles were my favorite, the wonton noodles were good, but the broth could have had more flavor. Nothing wrong with it, just maybe I expected more. Overall I'd give this place 3.5 stars because it was just fine, but since I can't do half stars I'll round it up to 4. Despite the score I gave it I'd probably still come back to try their bakery.

Average Chinese food in Amsterdam. We were originally trying to go to Pho King down the street but…read moreit was closed. Small mom and pop shop. Smells like a typical Chinese fast food joint of oil and deep fried things. Can get smoky inside. Service was pretty quick. We ordered the wonton noodle soup. The wontons were good, but I felt like the really thin noodles and soup tasted like something out of an instant noodle packet. Finished it because we were hungry and it was super cold outside. At least the bowl was piping hot. Alright if you're in the area and try something besides the soup. Wouldn't go out of my way to dine here. Also, one of the workers was using a toothpick in his mouth and serving food. Not sure if that's sanitary.

The place is small but our party of 4 were able to get seated right away. Someone came to our table to take our order and to our surprise (and delight) our food was ready in about 5 minutes.

Be aware they are cash only and you pay at the counter when you are finished. Overall it was a great experience and was so good we came back the next day.

Most of my friends are Chinese, you'd think they'd be nicer to them, but they seem even more rude. Often asking us for cash instead of letting us pay with PIN (Dutch debit). Unbelivable awkward thinking we are tourists. They double-charged us (charged our debit card twice when it showed it failed) and said to just 'take it up with the bank'. So rude. Never going back. The food is the most important thing, obviously, bud happily, there are many, many other restaurants that are much better than here in Amsterdam, nearby.
