The Peking duck skin was quite crisp and meat was ample, though may have not been fully authentic. The white meat on the chicken was a tad dry but was comparably crunchy. The cold appetizer had a pork component that was still a little icy. Lobster was chunky and meaty and the noodles were cooked well.
Passed by multiple times when I go to the restaurant next door. Decided to come and try it and dont think the dimsum are that great. If you are in the area and want some mediocre dimsum then this is the place. Nothing stood out and dont think I need to come again.
3.5 stars. I've been to New Mulan twice, once for a wedding banquet some ears ago and most recently for dimsum. On a holiday morning they opened at 10am, we arrived at 10:30am and there were plenty of seats. By the time we left the 250ish seats in their main banquet hall area were full and there was a line of about 50 people waiting in the lobby to be seated. Regular weekends are probably similar, with much fewer people on weekdays. They also have a separate banquet side which I believe is a little smaller, both are bookable for special events. First thing when arriving to your table is indicating what tea you want to order, commonly chrysanthemum, black or jasmine are options, though in our case my friend bought leaves from home and asked the staff for a ceramic teapot of hot water, which they were fine to provide. They do the old school dimsum pushcarts; wave over a dimsum lady passing by your table to check out available dishes on each cart. They have more or less all the staples--steamed meat/fish/shrimp balls, pan-fried taro and turnip cake, various steamed marinated meats, rice rolls and dumplings, fried savory and sweet puffs, buns, cakes. For vegetables, entree-size rice and noodle dishes and specialty items like seafood, you'll need to place orders with the waiters, then they are in part brought to tables by robot servers (see pic). Items I'd recommend: black pepper beef ribs, beef tripe with ginger, lotus leaf-wrapped sticky rice with filling, shiumai, baked roast pork buns with sweet topping. If you enjoy durian (I'm not a fan) I heard the durian puffs were good. I'd order again: any of the steamed rice noodles, pork spareribs with black bean sauce, steamed roast pork buns, egg custards, Chinese broccoli steamed with oyster sauce, fried eggplant with shrimp balls on top. A couple things were kind so-so or off that morning--my piece of shrimp in the steamed rice roll with shrimp tasted a little weird though the shrimp in the crystal shrimp dumpling was fine. The stewed tripe with turnip was just ok, kinda chewy and we didn't finish this. Both of these items are dim sum staples so it could just be an off day. Aside from waving over the dim sum carts, service is basically up to you to get the staff's attention if you need water refilled for tea, want to place an order, or request a check. That being said they're usually pretty quick once you flag them down. Bring the check up to the front register to pay, cash or card accepted.
You know the food needs to be good in order for me to travel 1hr+ for my go to dim sum spot. The restaurant is on the second floor of a plaza and you would think others would not know about the spot since it's not on the ground floor, but no! this place usually has a good amount of patrons. It's one of the rare remaining few places that still has the push carts (which I love!) they restock the food quite frequently to keep up with the demands. You can see the dishes are still piping hot. We ordered: 2 very types of chive dumplings Tendons Chicken Feet (would it be an authentic experience if we don't get it) Beef balls Chef special - Fried sticky rice with softshell crab Even though the dim sums were wonderful, the highlight is the fried sticky rice with softshell crab. Growing up my parents usually don't allow us to order any fried rice outside (because we can make a good one at home). But whenever we are here it's a must order. Idk how they cook it but the rice is crispy, flavorful and they DO NOT SKIMP OUT OF THE SOFTSHELL CRAB! Usually most restaurants would just give you one or two small pieces but not this spot. So when you go make sure to order it!
I came here for a wedding, although the wedding was fun with good company, mc, music, and friends. I would have to say the food was lacking. All of the food was bland in the exception of the pan fried noodle which was way too salty. In addition, the service was lacking, usually the staff would set the food down and serve some or most of it to the table. The wait staff did not do that for any of the tables. The food came out fast when it started, but again the staff member did the minimum of simply bringing the food out and did not serve nor switch out the dirty plates. I wouldn't come here to dine unless it was a must like for somebody's wedding banquet.
Just as chaotic and delicious as the last time we came. My favorite has to be those little salted custard buns with the pig face on it. Something new I tried this time was the Yin and Yang fried rice dish and it was out of this world. Rich and comforting but also sweet and sour!!! So delicious! Just like last time the place was HOPPING! Carts go up and down, and there is so much food but the value is unbeatable! Looking forward to my next trip for sure, and worth taking my family too next time they are in town.
Solid. Good food at good prices with great service. My opinion of the service might be skewed because my family has the gift of gab and somehow knew most of the staffers by name, but they're responsive and friendly enough in general. Ambience is fine. It's actually pretty spacious with plenty of room between tables and wide open cart paths. The bathrooms are a bit more unfortunate with limited stalls and noticeable wear and tear across the board. As with many Chinese places, the money is on the table. Food is strong. No compromises here in terms of flavor, quality and quantity. Standouts include the famous spare ribs and har gow with thin but structurally sound wrappers. Large portions of stir fried carbs can round out a meal nicely.
In the Crossing Queens mall. Hot, greasy dim sum. Fast friendly and helpful service. Eat at the common area. I came early so plenty of space and no crowds.
I came with my friend who knew what to order. The carts come around and you can choose what dishes you want. We had so much food it was amazing! One dish had mushrooms so I couldn't eat it (I believe it was the rice wrapped in a leaf), but everything else I had was top notch, hot and fresh. And the price, inexpensive. The service was fast, we also had some hot tea which was great. We came on a Sunday morning and it wasn't busy at all, about an hour later it got packed! Take the elevator upstairs to the actual restaurant.
This review is for their takeout spot located in the Queens Crossing food court. It's a welcome addition to the roast meats/dim sum scene in Flushing. I tried their roasted meats over rice (fried pork belly and char siu) and also got a hot soy milk with sugar. The combo came with a generous portion of white rice, steamed napa cabbage, and a bit of sauce. The char siu meat was a bit tough as they seemed to use a lean cut. The siu yuk was better as the skin was crispy and the meat had good flavor. If you get the soy milk with sugar added, make sure to mix it yourself before drinking otherwise there will just be a pile of sugar left at the bottom (speaking from experience...). Cash only!
New Mulan Restaurant is our go-to family gathering spot when we want a private room and karaoke! This restaurant has free parking for up to 3 hours however if you go over, they will charge. They charged us extra $4 since we were over 3 hours. We had a private room with our own karaoke machine and we spent the entire night singing and dancing the night away with family! It was the best way to spend Chinese New Year! Some notable dishes we had were the walnut shrimps, marinated short ribs, lobster, crabs, crispy chicken, whole steamed fresh fish, wow! The dishes were so delicious and flavors were great! Overall, love the ambiance, free parking, and delicious dishes! We can't wait to celebrate another family gathering at New Mulan!
Dim Sum!!! I've been to New Mulan for dim sum several times, and each time was great. The restaurant is very spacious, and I appreciate that there was decent space between the tables. Service & hospitality were good. Dirty plates were removed quickly, empty teapots replenished often. The cart ladies did a good job displaying all the dim sum items. Note that the dim sum selections on a weekday differ slightly from the selections on a weekend; with weekend selections having a bit more variety. Both still very good. One advantage of going on a weekday is the price; with most dishes costing just $3.95 (excluding specialty items). I hosted an Unofficial Yelp Event (UYE) for 10 people on a weekday, and the cost was just $16 per person (including tax & tip!). What a bargain! We were all shocked! I would definitely return for dim sum again. Shout-out for all the Yelpers who came for dim sum today! Great to see everyone!
solid dimsum spot that still has the push cart dimsum ladies. It's never too crowded and my family and I almost never have to wait. Even for a busy day like Mother's Day service is quick and efficient. Has all your typical dimsum dishes - we love the roast pork puff pastry here and the special crab sticky rice or mushroom e-fu noodles.

Hidden inside of Queens crossing, this canto dim is authentic with a bang for the buck on weekdays. $4.25/order. I will let the pictures speak for itself. Delicious Can't wait to come back read more
Cuisine: 6 Service: 5 Decor: 8 Value: 6 Overall: 6 On a quiet night, our party of six had a very mediocre meal at the smaller dining room, where the interior design is beautiful, but service was quite lacking. The best dish of the night was definitely the Fried Salt & Pepper Pork Chops. Other than that, everything was mediocre. I came back again for a friend's father's 80th birthday just a short month later. This time, food was better, but the same pork chops were not as good. For me, inconsistency is definitely a huge issue here. This time around, the Dungeness Crab Fried Sticky Rice and Lobster Cantonese Style were the top two dishes. Most of the other dishes were fine, with a couple of below average items. Honestly, I have been here over a dozen times and it's always been up and down. If they could stay consistent, I would be revisiting more often. read more

This was an unbelievable-amazing-fun-experience that I can't wait to do again. My fellow Elite (Andie) messaged to invite me to this luncheon she was setting up in Flushing, an unofficial Yelp event. (UYE). There was no way I was going to miss this. Our Elite group here of 10 people are a very special makeup of people who love both good food and fun company. It was so nice to have our community managers from both Queens and Nassau.. Special KUDOS to both Samantha and Jared. This is not one of those easy-in-and outs off the main road or parkway. I drove to Flushing, parked in a lot and walked around the corner. The lots here are reasonably priced, (not like parking in NYC.) From that spot is was a simple walk around the corner enter building and take elevator to 2nd floor. This place is HUGE-BRIGHT-LIVELY with an amazing amount of electricity in the air. There is also a stage at the end which makes this a perfect spot for events too. Our table was at the end so I had to maneuver through the many carts filled with mountains of food being delivered to the different tables. I am afraid that I can't tell you all that I ate because I don't know any of the names of the items. The ones I know are the the pork and shrimp shumai, fried rice, beef tripe with ginger scallion, roast pork buns, and more... many many more. There are plenty of pictures of the food, and our group. I enjoyed everything and kept reaching out for more. That's the beauty of the dim sum meal. This was a great place, great atmosphere and great experience.

Pretty large restaurant located on the 2nd floor of Queens Crossing mall. We went during the weekend and it wasn't very crowded. We didn't need to wait for a table. Their dim sum prices is $5 per plate as of this review. The dim sum was average. They also have good prices for their specials (lobster with noodles and soft shelled crab sticky rice). The sticky rice was delicious. They open early for dim sum but won't start taking non dim sum orders until 11am. read more

Came here for family dinner to celebrate my niece's birthday. It was a bit of a trek for me to come from Brooklyn, but you do things like this for the people you love. We had a reservation for 9 people and were sat early. There are two dining spaces -- we sat on the left while the right was reserved for a 100 day baby thing (both spaces could be used for banquet hall events, like weddings). The Good: -Ample space -Well decorated -Best dish was the soft shell crab glutinous rice -Stir fried steak with celery and shitake mushrooms was perfectly seasoned and cooked medium-rare/medium -The Chinese eggplant stuffed with shrimp was really good and flavourful The Meh: -Walnut shrimp had very little shrimp (maybe 10?) -The fried chicken with garlic was flavourless -The snow pea shoots needed more salt -They forgot our baked oyster dish until the very end at which point we had finished the rest of the dinner already. All in all, fine fare, but I'm not sure I needed to come all the way to Flushing for this. read more

New Mulan is a classic Cantonese Family style restaurant. It's been here for at least ten years+ and still running. I was here several times over the years, perhaps I've never reviewed it. This visit we were here to celebrate my mom's birthday and was surprised to see the sparse number of people. But Flushing is now home to over 200+ restaurants and cafes so not entirely surprised that the traffic has dwindled. Definitely not the lack of their service and food, we had a fabulous time enjoying the great eats. It does run pricier than your smaller family style joints but I like the spacious dining room, it's wheelchair accessible and you don't feel crowded and packed in with neighboring tables. Our servers were very friendly and was responsive to random plate changes and drink requests. Highlights: the stewed oxtail baked in the pumpkin. It's a must try! And the geoduck was delicious, fair price of $55/lb. Can't complain, I don't know how to process it at home so when I can, I'll order it at a restaurant. The salmon sashimi was great too. Presentation was elegant and kept our seafood fresh. My kids enjoyed the house fried rice, loaded with ingredients - shrimp, diced ham, scallions, egg and onions. Think there was diced roast pork as well. It was perfectly cooked. I enjoyed the marble goby fish, loaded with scallions. It was a very pretty dish. The lamb lollipops are a must try as well. The restaurant provided fresh fruit and sweet soup (tapioca and red bean) as a dessert. Will totally return for our next big event. read more

Came here for a wedding and the food was delicious. There's lots of TVs stationed around which is a plus. I don't think they have the best service but that's most asian places. This is located on the second floor and there's an elevator. The bathrooms are not the cleanest. Heard the dimsum here is delicious as well -- will come back and try! read more
The staff there was good, they spoke Cantonese and Mandarin. Sometimes it is better to point and pick what you want. Although packed during Saturday rush hour we are able to get 2 full tables for a guest of 14 people next to each other. In the restaurant you order food out of the rolling carts which come frequently and are stacked with the items that we want. They have the classic Steam Shrimp rice noodle rolls, steam beef noodle rolls, Zhong zi, etc. One thing that I found surprising and interesting was that the Pineapple bread in the New Mulan actually has pineapple in there which I found cute. Think about it: Pineapple fruit in pineapple bread! read more

Came here for a banquet and for such a large restaurant, the bathroom was small and not in the best condition. The food was good , my favorite was the fried steak. Chicken and fried rice lacks flavor. Service was good as staffs were attentive. If you plan on having parties and renting out the entire area, one flaw is there are columns that will block your view to the stage. Unfortunately where our table was we were not able to see much. There are small TVs hung around the area where you can broadcast with the right equipment. read more
Service (5/5): we came in on a weeknight at 6pm and there was no other patrons so we were wined and dined by several staff until a few later parties arrived. They were courteous and tended to us often. Ambiance (5/5): They just renovated and reopened a month ago! The dining area is also used as a wedding venue spot as you can see the ornate table settings, beautiful decor, speaker systems, and a projector in the front advertising the space. There's also private rooms in the back. One particular one had karaoke going on (and we could hear it..) Food: Chicken with Eggplant casserole : It was very salty but I enjoyed the taste. It came out in a bubbling plate. Salted porkchops: Nice crunchy outer crust. Chicken w Broccoli: Very standard dish, slightly too salty but the chicken pieces were super tender! Broccoli was cooked to a perfect crunch. Singapore Noodles: Tasty! Fried flounder: I loved the crispy skin of the flounder. It tasted fresh. Steak w black pepper sauce: The chunks were tender but they were very large and needed a knife to make some smaller cuts. However the sauce was just alright. read more
Everything was very decent here. The place could be hard to find, located located up a flight of stairs. There was plenty of space, without any need to wait on a holiday. I can imagine the weekends are probably more crowded though. I enjoyed every dish we got, minus a few. The beef tripe, which we confirmed the two times we got it, were too stiff, perhaps undercooked. The fried cheung fun were also too rigid. Their steamed buns also weren't very good. But what was their best was their decadent durian mochi, the creamiest I ever had, with the right amount of sweetness. I would come back and recommend for anyone looking for good traditional dim sum in the area. read more

3.5 stars. Honestly, kind of meh. If I do go back I will have to opt for other dishes. We were originally going to go to Shabu Shabu hot pot next door and I wish we did because I love that place. I love dim sum but this kind of missed the mark for me. Maybe they just didn't have much variety today because it was Christmas eve. Or I just didn't choose the right items. Many items were very good, like the shrimp siumai and rice rolls. Very yummy. Others, like the hello kitty buns were not too great in my opinion. I'm not even sure what the hello kitty buns were filled with but it was sweet. The spring rolls we tried were good not great. The ladies with the carts round often so thats nice. Judging from what I saw, I may not have ordered correctly, because the noodle and rice dishes some of the other tables had ordered looked delicious. My mom and cousin also enjoyed a roast pork dish but I didn't love that either. I do think everything is priced well though. For 10+ dishes and 2 sodas the total was about $82. Not too bad. I think its worth a try if you are in the area and like dimsum, especially with a large group. read more

Had Christmas Dinner at New Mulan, it was an amazing experience. The dining hall looks like it was just renovated, it was very nice and clean. The Sashimi Platter was fabulous, fresh, and tasty, same with the Crispy Shrimp with Walnuts. The server we had was attentive. We will definitely come back again! If you are looking for Authentic Chinese food, New Mulan is a must-try! read more
Wow! Foods were on the lower price end in comparison to most other dim sum places because we were lucky enough to dine inside on a weekday. $3.95 for all SML dim sum, and we ordered a soft shall crab fried glutinous rice which tasted very good and fresh. Fried w it b soy sauce and the dish was full of soft shell crabs. Bill came out to $60 after tax, what an amazing deal! Service was fast and attentive, clean environment too! Please try when you're in queens! read more

Craving some Dim Sum, we ventured into Downtown Flushing on a Saturday. To my surprise, there was no wait walking into New Mulan at 11:30 AM? I remember the days when there was a half hour wait with the hostess screaming numbers, but I digress. Ambience: many of these Dim Sum restaurants double as old school Chinese banquet halls at night. They are a relic of a bygone nostalgic era, as the decor is right out of the 90's. Similar to how Chinese Takeouts all look pretty much the same, the Dim Sum Restaurants all look like each other as well. Food: this is the reason I come here, not for the decor or service, but for the food. All the usual favorites are there, but something feels off... is it possible that all of this stuff comes frozen from a central supplier? The dim sum lacks the freshness and flavor that I fondly remember. The tea pot has a tea bag inside???? WTF?! TL/DR: There is a saying that you can never go home again ... sadly, the wonderful Dim Sum Experience I remember growing up exists only in my memories. read more
Came here right after opening time and we were seated quite quickly. The space is huge - tons of tables and room for carts to walk around the whole space. About half the tables were full by the time we got there, and when we were leaving, that had increased to maybe 3/4 of the space. Definitely a popular spot it seems! The variety of food they have is great - every dimsum dish you can think of available on a variety of carts. For one other person, I'd say that we got full after 8-10 dishes - if you come with a larger group, it'd be easier to try a bit more for sure. I'm always a fan of the rice noodles, siumai, chicken feet, and fried shrimp pastries. I wanted a bit of the tofu soup that I saw a cart for at the beginning of our meal, but it seemed by the end that the lady walking around serving it had disappeared. We waited several minutes and failed to flag anyone down to ask, so we just gave up on it. When we went to the front to pay, we saw the cart seemingly abandoned by the hot food station. Oh well. Overall, this spot is definitely a solid choice for your classic dimsum experience, albeit the service isn't perfect. There are a ton of people working, but it is hard to get someone's attention if you want more drinks or just are requesting a type of food. In the end, I would gladly come back anyway if I were craving dimsum, but just know the service left a little to be desired. read more

For a dim sum place, New Mulan hit the spot. We arrived around 1:30PM, so the restaurant was quite empty but there were still carts going around. Im honestly surprised this restaurant has pretty average ratings, but I'd say as far as classic dim sum dishes go, you can't go wrong with this place. Everything was still hot, and they had plenty to choose from. Pricing was average. Although I've had better, I'd still come back here for sure!! read more
