Dining is indoors exclusively, split up on 3 levels. Started off with the crispy pork belly, roast duck, dumpling flat noodle soup and it was decent. The dumplings were filled with bouncy shrimp. The duck was flavorful, a touch lean, and quite meaty. The crispy pork belly was ok. The flat noodles were drier than typical and the broth was tasty. The large portion was sufficient for one! Added on an oyster a la mode and it was tasty although the oyster was on the smaller side...bummer. Service was quick and attentive by the staff. They take credit cards too.

It's very traditional yet not fancy. There may be a line, but worth waiting under 10 min usually. Only downside is that the tables can be close and if it's quiet, or you're on a first date or something, you're RIGHT NEXT to this other couple who can listen to everything you say. Sometimes need some background noise!

I am so tempted to give only one star... Well, it was three strikes, really, and I will NOT be…read morecoming back to this place. The main reason - lack of trust. So, here goes the experience. I wanted to have something Asian for the evening, and so I look for Yelp, and find this place nearby. I go in, and there's only one other person - from Japan - eating. To be fair, there were few to-go orders in the meanwhile. First, I made it clear that I do not eat chicken and pork. I ask for soup that does NOT have chicken or pork, and for a dish that does not have chicken or pork. I order shrimp soup based on the recommendation, and assurance that this soup does not contain chicken or pork. When the soup comes out, it is clear that this is pork broth, as I can smell the pork. The dumplings, thankfully, were made with shrimp. The soup was so-so at best, as I do not like pork, and had that pork flavor to it. But, given that I've craved some soup for a while, I made efforts to finish. The main - Singapore mifan noodle, or rice noodle - I asked what roast meat (in the menu) was in, and she assured that there is NO meat, and definitely no pork and no chicken. Well, when the food comes out, sure enough, there are pork everywhere. I carefully separated the pork, and ate the noodles. In the meanwhile, I asked for a glass of tap water. After the meal - eaten rather laboriously, since they all contained pork - I get the bill. The soup was 6.50, the noodle was 10, but the mysteriously, the bill was for 19.50. I paid, and as I left, I asked how much was the noodle. She says 10, and soup was 6.50, and the tap water was 2.00. Still, the 1.00 is not accounted for, but what's the point - I wasn't returning to this place again, not after this experience with mediocre food, and worst of all, feeling taken advantage of - I just left. And, made sure to write about the experience in Yelp, lest anyone else, especially if you don't speak Dutch or Chinese, fall into their trap.

First, let me say the carpets are filthy dirty, and we didn't realize this until we were seated. There are small flies, flying around on the second level where we were seated. While we waited for our food they were everywhere. We both swatted flies on our legs and arms. We ordered the ribs with bone in black bean sauce to share, and when it arrived, it was tasty but there were small chips of bones in the sauce that made it very unpleasant to eat. We sent that entrée back. We had the shrimp and chicken satay which we only ate half because the satay pieces on the bottom of the plate were just sitting in grease. So we paid for our soda and beer and the satay and departed. This is the definition of a tourist trap restaurant. I find it hard to believe any self-respecting Amsterdam person couldn't find a better Chinese restaurant to eat in.

Adorning one of the walls are solar powered neko cats that wave to you from the window. On the walls are interesting art pieces, one in particular with instructions on how best to enjoy ramen. Serving us most the night was the main chef himself who observed us smile with ease at every first bite we took of each dish served. The food was quite good. Small portioned with intentions to share with others; three to four dishes are plenty for a party of two. We were starving so we ordered quite a bit. Sashimi was okay, nothing worth raving about. However, they did have two types of soy sauce for sashimi. They had the traditional Kikkoman soy sauce which is often used for sushi and sashimi and then they had the Shibanuma soy, which was ever so slightly thicker and sweeter IMO. The Shibanuma is meant intentionally to be tasted with sushi and sashimi, not to be cooked with as the server mentioned. It was tasty, most defintely. Honorable mentions were the mongolian beef stew, which came piping hot and delicious. Picture does not do the dish justice. Meat was fall apart tender, full of spice and flavor. Probably best paired with a neutral side, like white rice but we got stir fried udon noodles instead. Udon noodles were delicious as well. Simple yet well made. Noodles had good chew to them and came out piping hot. Overall, nice restaurant to try out if you're in East Amsterdam by oosterpark and craving good variety asian food.

Seeing a place like this would normally give you pretty substandard food and banking on the Chinese aesthetics but not here. The food was way above average with terrific taste and a large variety. And the aesthetics were very pleasant - especially being on the water! FOOD: So good. We ordered a BUNCH of food knowing we would take some back with us to the hotel. Now, I know I'm coming back whenever we visit Amsterdam. We had the 3 meat plate which had roast pork, cha siu pork, and roast duck. All so good. Really loved the cha siu (which is a Chinese version of BBQ pork). Usually overcooked, this wasn't. We also ordered kung pao chicken which was delicious. Usually kung pao is filled with veggies and other fillers but this was tons of great chicken! And then there was the dim sum. So good. Just yum. And good rice. SERVICE: Good and certainly better than expected. We had a nice English speaking guy helping us out and he was great. The food was served in nice sized portions and it came out relatively quickly. They serve it as it's ready and not in any particular order. Actually made it more pleasant. COST: Reasonable for what you get which is high quality food in a beautiful setting. Definitely worth a return visit.
