Didn't even know about this place until I search for dumplings on yelp…read more Let me tell you, now that I found it. I will definitely be frequenting this place a lot. I personally love their spicy wonton soup, but I've also tried the regular soup and the broth is amazing either way. I just prefer the spicier version. It's hard to really say what you should order here, I personally like the spicy wonton soup, but every single one of their appetizers that I have tried are amazing, unfortunately, I haven't tried too many of their main dishes as I tend to be a creature of habit, but I'm sure just like with all the appetizers that I've tried everything you order here will come out amazing. Anytime it's cold or starts to rain, this is my go to spot for a nice warm soup

We've been here a few times and the dongpu fatty pork meat with buns is always a go to. The way the pork melts in your mouth mixed with the picked root veggie sandwiched between the mantou bun is just yum! Service is great and the staff are friendly, they only interact with us when we make eye contact which is fine since the establishment is rather small so you don't have to stare across a large open area to try to get someone's attention.

However, if you want to try something a little different, there are some "traditional" Kaiping specialties that I haven't seen on menus anywhere else. I've always come with my family and have received great service because my dad knows the staff. They speak my home dialect so I'm sure there's some bias there. Foodwise, I've tried quite a bit and haven't had any dishes that didn't hit the mark for me. Standouts for me are the big claypot yellow eel rice, their specialty roast goose (the 2 dishes just listed may require a preorder but again, my dad usually handles all the ordering), their beansprout with pig intestine, and their egg plant with salted fish. The claypot rice is ordered by the kilo so really is a big party dish but has nice succulent pieces of eel, really well cooked rice, and then of course the crispy rice at the bottom. The goose is very flavorful and not super gamey, it has more of a meaty texture and bite than the younger poultry an American pallette may be used to so word of warning. I really like the beansprout with pig intestine, again not really gamey but very savory with very tender, fatty pieces of intestine (highly recommend even if you're hesitant with intestine). The eggplant with salted fish is also intensely savory with a pungency from the salted fish that may seem like a lot but melds really well with the sauce and overall flavor of the dish. Though I haven't tried every dish on their menu, I've tried quite a bit and can confidently say they'll bring out some tasty Chinese dishes.

I…read morelove their House Special noodles with shrimp, beef, the works... it's filling thick noodles reminds me of Mongolian style noodles but enough to feed about 3-4 people in your family if you share. When walk in, there is enough tables on the side to sit down but the service is always warm and nice. I also like to order the house special (soup) style dumplings that are pork filled even though I generally don't eat pork, these dumplings are ground pork and delish and what you would want in a juicy dumpling. The dumpling soup 7/10 I'm not much of a Szechuan flavor girl. I do like it but I don't like it being drenched in it so much. Basically, watch out for the numbness and spiciness in this dish, although the lady taking my order did try to forewarn me by asking for my spice levels before hand. (: otherwise, great choices and great fix for Chinese cuisine! I always seem to order to go so I don't have any pics to attach to this review, but I hope to return soon to update my review.

This place is one of my families favorite local spot. What I really appreciate about the restaurant…read moreis how diverse the clients are and the staff. It really goes to show how the surrounding community that has a balance of different ethnic group comes to appreciation the good flavor and quality of this Chinese cuisine. The services here are very friendly and attentive. The only thing to keep in mind is that if you come in an hour before they close they will let you know that in advance. I think the intent is so you order fast and don't linger. Not a negative for me since my family usually is pretty quick about eating and going. They are also pretty good with customizing their ingredients. My wife is gluten free so we would ask that they not add in soy sauce or oyster sauce in some of the dishes that we know can still work without those two ingredients. You would need to know how to customize it yourself as I don't think they would know what to do if you simply say no gluten. Overall, I really don't have anything negative to say about this place. We walk in hungry and happy and we come out full and satisfied.

She always orders the Fish Filet with Black Bean Sauce, which she absolutely loves and talks about every visit. This time, I went with the Kung Pao Three Delights, which was solid and flavorful. My only real complaint was the fried rice. It wasn't like any fried rice I've had before--it seemed more like plain rice mixed with soy sauce and just didn't do much for me. Definitely not something I'd order again. That said, my mom would probably give this place 5 stars based on her favorite dish alone. While my experience wasn't quite at that level, the entrée itself was still enjoyable. Overall, I'd return and would recommend.

There's plenty to walk around in the plaza (desserts, pastries, açaí bowls) while you're waiting and even a fountain. Once seated everything moves relatively fast. The menu is extensive, food comes out quickly and fresh, and workers are attentive even though you order through a tablet and it's super busy inside. Food is stellar and of value (6 XLB for $8!), portion sizes are good, and everything is piping hot! The soup dumplings have soo much soup IMO beating out Mama Lu's which is what I would consider to be their nearest competitor. The spicy shrimp wontons are also good, but I think the flavors don't quite hit as well - big pieces of shrimp are enclosed though! The Peppered Beef Udon was great the beef pieces were tender and juicy and great textured noodles. Onion pancakes are a staple along w/cucumber salad (not pictured) , and their pan fried pot stickers are my favorite along with the sauce it comes with. Sooo crispy. Pro tip: If you are a first timer/came from far and waited a while don't let them seat you at the bar the experience is not as nice by far (I saw someone say it's like paying to stare at a wall - I concur) Being seated at a booth or table will allow you the full experience but I do understand there's only a limited amount of room in the bustling place.

The service was still good, but I would have to say that the food was only average at best. We ordered most of our usuals: the Spicy Wontons (a little bland, not very spicy), House Special Fried Rice (with Chicken, Beef, and Shrimp) which also seemed a little bland, Spicy Filet Mignon (best of what we ordered), and the Kung Pao Chicken, which was not good at all. Apparently, they offer crunchy and non-crunchy, but there was hardly any chicken, and it was so small that it really seemed like all we got was the crispy coating. Plus, it was a little sweet and not at all spicy, which is what I would expect from Kung Pao. The portions are always good sized, but we were very disappointed with the taste. Hopefully, this was a one-off experience, and things will be back to normal on our next visit.

The menu is HUGE, with many choices of seafood, poultry, beef, soups, noodles, etc. During this visit, we ordered Mongolian beef, eggplant, and kung pao chicken and shrimp. Our food was AMAZING!! Extremely flavorful and perfectly prepared. Each bite of all three dishes left you wanting more. The white rice was a perfect companion to our great lunch. When we entered the large restaurant, eight to ten other guests were dining, and another ten to fifteen stopped by to pick up takeout. This is a very popular place in the area. Free parking is available in the restaurant's private parking lot. The decor is definitely Chinese, with many decorations hanging from the walls and ceiling, while soothing Chinese music plays overhead. This was a positive dining experience
