    Sue is back! Best beef and broccoli, plantains, and steamed dumplings  in the hood!

    Nothing like hot Wonton Soup on a nice Autumn Day! STILL the local hot spot! Seafood selection includes steamed scallops, plump mussels, fried or steamed shrimps, and lobster.

    It's Chinese fast food with products one would expect if you eat fast food. The food is tasty and well cooked and when I'm strapped for cash this is definitely the better tasting affordable Chinese spot around. Overall don't read the menu and expect too much (crab is that sweet imitation crap, shrimps are basically krill, etc).

    It's your typically Chinese spot. No delivery so you have to call in your order. The food is always good to me. My go to in the chicken wings. Always ask for Sue to put hot sauce on the wings! Trust me

    I spent a day lounging and decided I wanted Chinese for dinner. I called ahead to place my order via phone since it was 15-20 min walk. The place is your standard no frills take-out. I ordered General Tso Chicken with fried rice, an egg roll and 4 chicken wings. The general Tso chicken was ok but the fried rice was bland and only had onions and bean sprouts. The egg roll didn't seem fresh and also was bland. The fried wings were the best item I ordered. Note this place is cash only and a bit overpriced. I spent $19 for my order.

    If you call to order ahead they will yell at you that is true! He is saying "large or small" and you need to tell him if you want a small or large order on most things. We went down instead and he was so nice and we got what we wanted! Honey fried chicken/ shrimp friend rice small Chicken lo mein large Bbq pork and the red sauce is fire Pork fu yung, which wasn't in a patty style like we are used to. Still good. $43 for all that is a good deal. The couple places we usually go in our hometown in Washington state we get about the same amount of food for more like $56.

    Best Chinese food in brooklyn for sure! It's just your typical fast service chinese food spot, and they got a couple chairs in the place too. Sign on the wall says they are closing August 22, 2023 till Oct 1 tho so go get it while yall can!

    BBQ rib tips party platter. Great for game day. Not a great pic, but coincidentally next to a briefcase for scale. Awesome taste and value.

    If you look at this place and assume it's the same as every other Chinese spot in the area, you are wrong. This is better. The easiest demonstration of this is the homemade fried pork dumplings. There are Chinese places closer to me, Chinese places that deliver to me, but I choose to bike or drive to pick up food from here. If you're having friends over for a football game or something, I highly recommend ordering the party tray of rib tips. Inexpensive, and super tasty alternative to wings.

    If you are ever craving "slutty chinese food" in brooklyn, LHK is famous as a bed-stuy institution. Upon entering, one is greeted with multiple signs on the walls proudly declaring "BEST rated chinese restaurant in Brooklyn / New York." The rest of you may disagree but I, for one, still cannot understand all the hype behind this place for a couple of reasons: 1) They do not offer any delivery services - period. Say good bye to any hopes of ever ordering delivery from them on grubhub, doordash, ubereats, etc. I also found it a bit hard to understand the speaker when calling ahead to place my order. 2) The filling of the steamed shrimp dumplings had a strange mouthfeel that I found to be somewhat off-putting - stick to pork fried dumplings which at least have a crispy exterior that contrasts nicely with the plump pork filling. 3) While their honey fried wings are popular, I found them to be underwhelming, even with the famous house "mambo sauce." The same holds true for their General Tso's chicken - while it was decent, it just wasn't the "slap-yo-momma-best-chinese-in-brooklyn" that I was hoping for. 4) As this place is cash-only, I'd feel a little better if the person handling the dirty cash was NOT the same person prepping the final stages of the food for orders (or at least wear gloves when doing the latter), especially in the wake of COVID-19... Don't get it twisted: I respect the owner's hustle - Sue was clearly the hardest-working MVP there, multi-tasking to keep operations running smoothly. I wish her all the best as she has clearly figured out a winning formula for her food to appeal to nearby residents. As this restaurant is out of the way for me in bed-stuy, I biked here with high hopes but ended up with the standard american-chinese food experience. For the above-mentioned reasons, I probably won't make the trek here again.

    Shrimp with broccoli
    Shantel M.

    So tasty. So good. Whenever we need a "fake" chinese food fix, this is our go to spot. Pretty fast but order ahead if you can so you can just pick up without waiting. No delivery available but trust, it's worth getting up and going to pick it up yourself. Cash only. Parking is impossible so double park real quick like everyone else. Our favorite dishes: Item/Grade - Lo Mein A+ - Honey wings A - Shrimp fried rice A- - General Tso's B (it was not crispy.) - Shrimp with Broccoli A - Plain Wings A P.S. Tried the Mambo sauce and I'm not a fan. Tastes like ketchup, duck sauce and some kind of fruit? Not sure. But we've tried it once.

    Cheap (by NYC standards), efficient service, generous portions. The pork fried rice is the bomb. A single egg roll is huge.

The food was very fairly priced and the portions were huge. We got the pork soup dumplings, pork fried rice, szechuan chicken (which came with white rice), and pad see ew (which though not listed comes with pork, chicken, and shrimp). Everything was solid, but our favorite was the fried rice which had a ton of flavor. I liked the veggies that were in the chicken dish but there were just way too many of them compared to the chicken and I wasn't crazy about the sauce. The pad see ew wasn't made the traditional way I've had it with soy sauce and oyster sauce. It had some sort of orange sauce that tasted closer to a sweet and sour. It wasn't bad it was just not what I was hoping for. The soup dumplings were solid, no complaints there. And the fried rice was great, lots of flavor. Overall, I liked this place especially for the price but I'd probably order different things if I went back.

Get the "20 mini dumplings + drink of your choice". Seriously, I'm getting hungry just writing this review. Food: I ordered the 20 mini dumplings and drink combo, substituting the soda option for taro boba (+$4), totaling around $18 after tax! The dumplings are mini, but they are filled with so much flavor it's unbelievable. They each have a bit of soup in them that is so flavorful and not salty. There is also a slight bit of crispiness on the outside of each dumpling before the inside just melts in your mouth. It's unbelievably good. The taro boba is also well done. It's not too sweet, and the boba pearls are a unique level of like not that chewy and feel almost like popping boba?! Service: Friendly service! My friend and I did to-go, but the staff were all quite friendly. There is also a kiosk to order from if in a rush. Ambiance: It's a very clean restaurant and spacious. However, since there were so many people waiting for the viral item, we formed essentially a crowd outside the steps.

We were skeptical about this restaurant but it exceeded our expectations and we can't wait to return! We came on a weekend for dinner so it was busy!

We had the pork XLB, chicken feet, pork & vegetable wontons with spicy peanut sauce, noodles with scallion and peanut butter sauce, beef lo mein and the beef ribs. Everything was delicious! The highlights of our meal were the pork XLB and the beef ribs. The pork XLB were made fresh to order and they were flavorful and juicy! Definitely on my list of best XLB I have ever had. The beef ribs were also delicious! They torched it table side which definitely added a nice touch! Considering how busy they were, the service was immaculate. They were also very attentive to details since we had a kid with allergies. We will definitely be coming back soon. This place is also right next to the Court Street train station which makes it very convenient to get to!
