    Crab soup dumpling
    Nam H.

    Stopped by to try out their soup dumplings, and honestly they really hit the spot. I only ordered a set of crab/pork soup dumplings because I had just eaten at another place earlier, otherwise I would have probably ordered another couple options. It's really good bang for your buck, and the store is deceptively pretty big so there's a lot of space. I liked the vibe of this store, the employees really seem to care about it, unlike other restaurants where they don't really put any effort. It's clean, well serviced, and the soup dumplings are great. Protip: you gotta use the chili flake/oil condiments with the vinegar to maximize the deliciousness!

    Pleasant soup dumpling restaurant that provides a nice selection of soup dumplings, sides and other small traditional items. They accept Apple Pay and have WiFi for customers use. I make sure to stop for lunch every time I am working in Williamsburg.

    I'm so thankful for this restaurant that was open til 2am the night we visited. It was a rainy night and we were starving and craving asian food. I wasn't expecting to find this gem. The dishes are all reasonably priced, they served generous portions, and all the entrees we chose were delicious. Check out the pics. I highly recommend eating here any time of day. Friendly staff, clean environment and delicious eats.

    Went here after visiting a local church! Amazing service and we asked what was recommended. Gave us great options: soup dumplings (which I hear are famous) and spicy wontons (and I ordered scallion pancakes bc can never go wrong w scallion pancakes!!!) Thank you for the good food and new place to check out when in neighbor

    Very good quality dumplings for the price. Food took about 10 min. Restaurant is clean.

    I wanted some Shanghai noodles so badly and stumbled across Nan Xiang Express. I didn't realize it was a chain restaurant until one of my orders was accidentally sent to Downtown Brooklyn. I ordered so much food on Ubereats before arriving to pick it up. I didn't realize I'd get such a large amount of food. I spent $49 total and it was worth every penny. Soup dumplings were so good and juicy. I ate it at home with my sister and it didn't disappoint. She loved all of the food as well. They even gave us the adorable soup spoons and wooden chop-sticks. The pork noodles were Devine. Honestly it filled me up so fast because it came with such a large amount. The Bokchoy inside the noodles were cooked perfectly and so was the pork. Chefs kiss! I barely had time to devour the other items I purchased. My all time favorite was the beef scallion pancakes. My goodness the beef with sauce, veggie crunch and crispiness of the pancakes were phenomenal, seriously 10/10 I also had the pork Bao buns fried at the bottom, it was so delicious and poofy just as I expected it to be with the small bottom crunch adding to the texture. The chili oil is not too spicy and packed the perfect heat paired with all my food. I really loved everything and will be coming back often. PS- The Passionfruit lime tea is DELICIOUS

    Amazing I love Nan Xiang food so yummy, great service! Everyone should come and eat soup dumpling

    A must-visit for anyone craving authentic and perfectly crafted soup dumplings. Their dumplings live up to the hype - the thin, delicate wrappers hold light broth and filling that's hard to get right. The restaurant itself is spotless with a clean and inviting interior. Bonus tip: for soup dumpling newbies, there's a helpful poster inside showing you how to eat them step by step - super handy. The staff is friendly and efficient, ensuring a smooth dining experience. If you're in the area, this is a spot you can't miss! -AT

The food here genuinely surprised me because everything came out super fresh and hot. We ordered a BUNCH of dishes that I lost track of taking pictures, but a few really stood out. The steamed spare ribs were hot, tender, and flavorful; the taro pieces mixed in were great too. The chicken feet were cut in half for convenience and the taste and texture were spot on. The hargow surprised me with filling that was mostly shrimp which is sometimes too much to ask for sadly. My favorite might've been the honeycomb tripe (not the one in the stew). It came out steaming and had that ideal bounce without being chewy, I'm pretty sure I cleaned more than half of it. Overall, the freshness and heat of every dish made a huge difference. The restaurant had a great vibe and service was good although they accidentally charged us an extra order of chicken feet (which was resolved when we pointed it out). Definitely worth checking out if you're craving dim sum in the city.

Tell him how many in your party and he'll give you a piece of paper with a number on it, he'll blow through those announcements quickly, so listen up. - The numbers for a table aren't always sequential, he's playing a game of Tetris with tables. - If you've got less than a full table, be prepared to share a table, but it's no big deal. - Steamed Pork Bun is better than Baked Pork Bun (but not by much), which is better than the Crispy Fried Pork Dumpling (mochi!). Baked Pork Pastry was a little meh, it was extremely rich and ours was in that awkward in-between temperature. - Chive dumplings are pretty shrimp-forward, good, but shrimp-forward. - If there's something you want and it doesn't make its way to you, ask! Servers retrieved several things for us and the tables around us (seemingly) happily.

The ambiance is calm and cozy -- definitely a good spot whether you're grabbing a couple drinks, a quick bite, or sitting down for a full dinner.

The tuna and avocado paired with the spicy red sauce really made it stand out -- honestly tasted great and something I'd get again. Also had the Mongolian steak with rice, which was another highlight. Presentation was fire -- it comes out still heating on a hot platter, which makes the whole experience feel elevated. Flavor matched the presentation too. Service was solid overall, no real issues there. The only downside was with a deal they were advertising ("3 for $33"). It was shown on their website and even posted outside the restaurant, which was actually one of the main reasons we chose the spot. When we tried to use it, we were told they weren't honoring it that night and that the deal had been causing them to lose money. I understand adjusting pricing if something isn't working, but if that's the case, the promotion should be removed or clearly communicated ahead of time. Having it still advertised and then not honoring it was frustrating and took away from the experience.
