Esmeralda R.

So glad we stumbled upon this place. The staff is very friendly and they truly care about the quality of food that you receive. They accidentally burnt our first dumplings and remade them for us. I appreciate their transparency and them correcting it before bringing it to the table. Everything we ate was 10/10 we left happy and with full belly's. We will most definitely be returning! The vibe is casual dining. Thank you Our family table for a great meal!

Beef Roll 牛肉卷饼
Ashley J.

Dropped by for lunch on a Sunday and had a great experience! The restaurant had lots of open seating so no wait time required. The staff were friendly and service was quick and easy. You order through a QR code and website. The menu has lots of variety and a lot of Chinese comfort foods. The beef roll was a highlight for me! Such a perfect mix of savory flavors. Definitely a great addition to Downtown Berkeley :)

chicken fried rice
Diane L.

I came here for lunch with a group of 6! We ordered a few things and everyone was happy with their meal. I had the dumpling soup, my friend had the chicken fried rice, another had the pork fried rice, another had the braised beef noodle soup and we shared vegetable eggrolls. When you arrive you may see someone making their house made dumplings in the window! I really liked my soup with the red chili paste they set out on the tables and the vinegar. Most of us left with to go boxes with leftovers to take home. I would definitely return here and suggest others to check it out whole in the area.

Cabbage and Pork Dumplings
Ari A.

Came here in a weekday for lunch. We order a via QR code on the table and the food came out quickly. Food was pretty good. The Jiajiangmein was a little disappointing because it was very heavy on the onion side and seemed more like a Korean version than a Chinese version.

Cucumber with Garlic 拍黄瓜
Mike P.

Great authentic Chinese food in Berkeley. On top of that, they make their noodles and dumplings on the spot. Only ordered small dishes, but I bet almost everything on the menu is excellent. Would eat here again when craving some fresh Chinese food.

Vegetable dumplings
Goku U.

First time trying our family kitchen. To confirm they make fresh dumplings, a worker is making them fresh in the front window. We ordered a variety of dishes - scallion pancake, vegetarian mapo tofu, vegetarian dumplings, garlic broccoli and vegetarian chow mein. The scallion pancake was ok, overly greasy and pretty thin for a pancake. Dumplings had a nice thin wrap but the inside could use more flavor for a veg dumpling. The chow mein was the best dish but also came out last. Broccoli was ok, nothing too special and I probably would go for the string beans next time. The mapo had very soft tofu but the sauce tasted premade. Service was friendly and fast. Ordering is through the online server.

Eggplant
Danny V.

This spot really delivers when it comes to flavor. The chive dumplings and the corn dumplings were both standouts, each bite had a great balance of filling to wrapper, with just the right mix of meat, vegetables, and delicate skin. A splash of vinegar tied everything together nicely and kept the flavors feeling bright instead of heavy. The eggplant dish was flavorful and satisfying, though the skins were a touch on the firmer side, personally, I think they could benefit from a bit more cooking time. That said, the seasoning was spot-on, and it's one of those dishes that grows on you the more you eat it. The staff were warm and attentive, taking the time to walk us through the menu and check in regularly without being overbearing. The space itself is also very accommodating, with plenty of room for strollers, wheelchairs, or just a more comfortable dining experience overall. Location-wise, it's super convenient, just a couple of blocks from the Downtown Berkeley BART Station and right near the main streets of Shattuck and University, making it an easy stop whether you're local or just passing through.

beef noodle soup
Angela W.

So I found my new favorite noodle spot near campus. What makes this place stand out is THE BEEF. so good. you can really taste that the beef has been braised, whereas I've typically found that beef at the other noodle spots tend to just taste like meat. here, the flavor has really been soaked up. not to mention that the broth itself is equally flavorful, you get wood ear mushrooms in addition to bokchoy, and the noodles are perfectly chewy! all for only 13.99 with hearty leftovers for another meal. will be back :)

Beef Bao (4pc)
Lou C.

Very nice, super reasonably priced option for Chinese food in Berkeley. Beef bao buns were seasoned perfectly. The soup dumplings were a little disappointing because they were obviously frozen items and then reheated because they were still in there foil sleeves. The fried rice was not greasy at all and very tasty, as were the scallion pancakes. Condiments were vinegar, chili oil, and soy sauce. Don't ask for duck sauce or you'll get the side eye like I did from the server

Tomato egg knife cut noodles, good sesame flavor
C C.

Quick and attentive service! The server gave us great recommendations based on our food restrictions and also--and you won't get this at every Chinese place--a consideration of the flavors and textures of the other items we had already ordered. This guaranteed a variety in our family-style meal as good as if we had been going to the restaurant for years, but without the trial and error that typically comes with developing that kind of ordering expertise. One appetizer, one veggie dish, one noodle dish, and one order of dumplings was enough for 3 people and leftovers besides. Good vegan options as well as for pescatarians, will definitely be going back to try more. Expected everything to be too salty, as Chinese restaurants in the US are wont to do, but sodium levels here were perfect for me. I was pleasantly surprised! I prefer my dumplings without any additional condiments but others in my party used some. The hard part will be NOT ordering everything that was so delicious again. A member of our party was in a wheelchair but they accommodated us easily. You can watch them make dumplings up front, which is fun for kids while they wait (not long) for the food to arrive.

Great place to eat after work, just a block away from UC Berkeley. Soup dumplings are a must, scallion pancake and the cucumber salad were delicious as well. The beef signature wide noodles taste great, especially since everything was made in house.

Braised beef shank
Michelle L.

The soup dumplings are mediocre and missing some authentic flavor; however, the noodles and side dishes are quite tasty. The service is good too. It has an upgraded hole-in-the-wall feel.

Pork and scallion dumplings, chicken chow mein

Continuing my yearlong journey trying all the new hand-pulled noodle places popping up around town, I had to try this spot that just opened a few weeks ago. I'd say it's a 3.5 star restaurant that still working on operations and service. The place was full for a Friday night dinner, but no queue yet. It feels spacious as there are fewer tables than the space can probably accommodate. I'm used to Chinese restaurants packing you in like sardines :) So that's nice. For the life of me I can't recall what was in this space before but it looks lightly updated from whatever it was before. There was just 1 server working the entire dining room. So he doesn't have time to check on your table or make any small talk. He's too busy running around. On to the food, we had pork and scallion dumplings, which were my favorite thing we had. Great flavor and perfect thickness of dough. I like it thicker than what I normally find at dim sum. Also had chicken chow mein, which was also flavorful, but not a lot of chicken pieces. Also had garlic string beans. Good flavor but it tasted old/not fresh from the texture. A lot of reviews mentioned the sesame balls so had that for dessert. These were small so not too big. I liked that they were hot when delivered to the table because often times at dim sum it's room temp. Good chewy dough, but I wish there was more sweet filling. We ended up not getting noodle soup because it was a warm day, so I regret not trying it. But now I have a reason to come back to see how operations improved next time!

Cool to see a restaurant stick around for that long. We got to the restaurant right when it opened for lunch at 11:30 on Sunday. Free street parking on Sunday! I thought everything was solid top to bottom, but here is my ranking in descending order: Braised Eggplant Tofu Clay Pot - I generally like this dish everywhere and they have a good version on this here - seasoned well, tender eggplant, and nice texture on the tofu Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings - non-traditional "salt & pepper" - thick coating of tempura-like batter, very peppery (black pepper), and wings set on a bed of sauteed onions. Sesame Bread with Green Onion - tasty, but unlike other "da bing" I've had. This was on the thin side, meaning you have a lot more crispy outside compared fluffy inside. This was also lighter on the green onion. Classic Shrimp & Chive Dumpling - can't go wrong with dumplings - an order comes with 12 dumplings, each filled with big pieces of shrimp. I liked the texture but it is a little different - looser filling instead of a solid meat/veg ball on the inside. Original Braised Pork Noodle Soup - I liked the flavor of the soup and noodles. There was a ton of meat (diced) but they were on the tough side.

I especially like that there's an option to choose between thin, thick, or rice noodles, as well as different spice levels. The food was fresh and not overly salty.

We waited 10 minutes to get in, which wasn't unreasonable, and once we ordered, the food came out quickly. The place is very small and seemingly popular. I would definitely come back. Solid 8/10.

Since there is fairly limited seating, wait times can be rough, especially if you're going during lunch or dinner rush. I've waited 30-45 minutes before. The restaurant is pretty small so tables are pretty close to each other and it may be difficult to be seated quickly if you're going in with a larger group. That asides, the food as Noodle Dynasty is unmatched. I typically get their noodle soups, which are a massive portion size, & appetizers, such as lamb skewers, spicy wontons, and chinese doughnuts. To this day, I think that the spicy wontons are the best in the area - super flavorful beyond just the chili oil taste. Definitely recommend getting these! You order on a tablet & food comes out so fast. Could not recommend this place enough!

I'm not sure if they know how it works, but financial institutions approve the transaction. It goes in a pending status, and the merchant is the one that does the final authorization.

It is such a shame, because they have a nice establishment, but customer service is not up to par. We ended up leaving because if you're not able to comprehend the issue of your system how can we trust you to do another transaction when. Mind you I have been a yelp elite for 8 years. I don't normally give 1 star ratings and for this to warrant that the customer service spoke for the restaurant itself.
