    I made one of those Internet inspired bingo cards to push myself a little to try new things and one of my squares is to try 12 new restaurants (outside of Yelp event privileges). Phat Phat was the first one of the year! I have seen the Imperial Xaio Long Bao on Instagram and was intrigued. I also saw the Chocolate Bao while scoping out the menu online and mentally added it to the list of things I wanted to try. When we got there, we saw the photos of the soup on the menu and thought it would be the perfect addition to the stop. I got the sweet corn soup (I'm trying new things, remember?) and my boyfriend got the wonton soup. I was a little skeptical of the consistency of the sweet corn soup, but it was not strange at all and the perfect thing to eat on a cold weekend. The Imperial Xaio Long Bao came with a lesson on how to eat them fully. I enjoyed every one less the Spicy Szechwan because it had dried shrimp in it and I cannot eat shellfish. My favorite one was the Chicken Curry [pink] with the OG Shanghai [white] a close second. Every single one was delicious, though! The Chocolate Bao were fluffy, decadent, and the perfect ending to our culinary adventure. Props for using imported chocolate over the American stuff, haha. The service was great, our waiter was funny, patient, and asked us some intelligent questions, like, how did we hear about the restaurant? The seating space was beautiful and it looked like there was a 2nd floor for seating, too? The tables were placed resourcefully, but not too close where you were sitting on top of one another. The space was bright and decorated well. I didn't use the bathrooms because I was too busy absorbing everything I definitely look forward to visiting again soon!

    Had a bit of a mixed visit. Came in with a larger group for early dinner. The restaurant looked nice and was pleasantly decorated. We were seated fairly quickly and the staff was very pleasant and helpful. My wife and I got the Mi Goreng, Dry Chilli Chicken, lychee iced tea and mango sago. The Mi Goreng was good and we enjoyed it a lot. The Dry Chilli Chicken didn't really look like the picture and was just okay. I didn't mind the Lychee Iced Tea but it was basically just Iced Tea with a very small hint of lychee flavor, my wife wasn't a fan. The Mango Sago was disappointing, It was very liquidy and wasn't too refreshing, mango tasted good though. Overall, staff and ambiance are nice. The food was more of a miss than hit unfortunately.

    Noodles and Beef Soup Dumplings

    Customer service was amazing. Everything we tried to the menu was unique and delicious. Can't wait to go back. You cannot find these types of different dishes just everywhere. The ambience was nice and modern, open and clean feeling.

    This is an updated review as I haven't been back since that original review a few years ago. Came by on a Sunday afternoon for lunch to meet up with a friend who's also been here before. Service as usual was absolutely fantastic. He was so kind and helpful and made recommendations also. He was also very funny. We ordered quite a few dishes as you can tell from the photos and everything was really tasty and delicious Love coming here and trying some new things. This is definitely a must stop.

    This is such a cute spot, tall ceiling with warm but chic decor, and plenty of easy parking in the lot behind the building. Staff was SO friendly from greeting us, to recommending menu items, to superb attention throughout our meal. That came in handy because the menu is quite expansive and can be confusing with the mix of visuals and line items. The menus we received had gone through quite a bit of wear and tear so at times it was hard to read and navigate. This didn't deter us though, we ended up asking a million questions instead haha. The food was very tasty and everything came out piping hot. They paced it so we could enjoy everything while warm. We got two sets of dumpling, two appetizers, and a larger noodle dish to share between two people. We probably could've ordered 2-3 more dumpling dishes. The dumplings really are the star so I would encourage you to order a variety to sample and try!

    The restaurant is very well decorated, which makes an amazing environment for a date night with cozy bench seats or quaint tables. It's also a perfect place to go if you want to order many small dishes and share. Each dumping dish comes with 3-4 in steamer baskets making it perfect to go with 2-4 people. I recommend the siew mai, sichuan wonton, and gao zi in the dim sum menu and the enoki mushrooms from the appetizer menu. All of the dishes arrived quickly and stove hot and the experience overall was fantastic. The servers are attentive and checked in with us frequently.

    My husband and I have dined here before. We've now returned with our kids. My son has severe sesame allergy and he felt safe eating here. Phat Phat was so accommodating and made sure sesame was completely eliminated in every dish we ordered so my son can enjoy what we ordered. Everything was delicious from the soup dumplings to the green beans and chicken wings, Indonesian noodle dish, and dessert. Our server Danny was attentive and so helpful. We had a wonderful experience and will definitely go back!

    Last time I was in town, my mom and I had lunch here. And it was only us two but we ordered for 6 for some reason but that's ok because used we got to take it home and eat it again later. My mom happens to always be cold so she ordered hot tea and soup but we also got fried rice, dumplings and skewers. Our eyes were hungrier than our stomachs. We even ordered dessert bao and they were so good. Fluffy and light and beautiful too. Service was great too - friendly and welcoming. This is a great restaurant and I recommend it.

    Garlic Chicken Wings
    Crystal Z.

    Ambiance - spacious, modern, it looks like they have a 2nd floor for when it's busy Service - server was very polite and we got our food within 10-15 min Food - Garlic Chicken Wings - super crispy & wasn't too salty Sheng Jian bao - filling was on the sweeter side, edges weren't crispy Nasi Goreng - fried egg was cooked to perfection, chicken was super tender Hot and sour soup - texture was fairly thicker than I'm used to

    Are there any vegan options?

    We do have some vegan items in our menu.

    Do you have any gluten-free options?

    We do have some items that are gluten free, but the choices are limited.

    Do you have any halal meat options?

    Surprisingly YES they do! Just ask the waiter. We didn't ask and when we were there the waiter freely told us they use halal meat! Still it's always best to ask which specific dishes are made solely with halal meat just to be on the safe side.

    Does the claypot rice works for carryout?? I think since it's in a claypot..taking it out wont be easy

    We are currently serving them to go. Our chefs still prepare as normal but only stir the rice and sauce and place the protein on top of the rice.

A server named Anny (or something close to that) was incredibly rude, dismissive, and openly condescending from the start. We asked a simple question about what drinks were included, and instead of answering like a normal server, she responded with "Drinks are drinks." That kind of attitude is unacceptable in any customer-facing job. It was lazy, disrespectful, and unnecessarily insulting. Only after I directly called out her response did she finally explain the drink options, and even then she did it with obvious irritation, like we were bothering her by asking a basic question. It got even worse when I went to the front desk to complain. Rather than apologizing or trying to fix the situation, she immediately became defensive and claimed, "I told you, you just didn't hear me." That was simply false. She did not properly explain anything until after I challenged her rude behavior. Then, instead of letting the issue go, she came back to our table looking angry and resentful, and gave us a completely insincere explanation. The worst part was her final comment: "You can say whatever you want. You already said it anyway." Then she walked away impatiently. That response alone tells you everything you need to know about her professionalism. This was not a misunderstanding. This was not "bad communication." This was a server with a nasty attitude who clearly does not know how to treat paying customers with basic respect. I've had normal service here before from other staff, so this stood out even more. One employee like this is enough to ruin the entire experience and make customers not want to come back. Management should take this seriously. Staff like this do real damage to a business.

My wife, her mom, and I were in Chicago to remember my father-in-law's death anniversary, and my sister-in-law chose Chef Ping's, for our party of nine for a Wednesday lunch. Parking is plentiful and the dining area can seat a lot. We got seated at a large round table in the back room, with a large lazy susan (just need to remember to spin it very slowly). We ordered a lot, and the food came out slowly. There was plenty of leftovers for the local folks to have for future meal or two. 3 Shrimp Toast (6 pieces each) - $26.85 - greasy but good, with the shrimp paste being a little sweet (in a good way) Noodle in Black Bean Sauce ($12.50) - this is jja jang myeon, which two of us had the previous night. It was OK, not near the top of the best I've had. Ping's Noodle Soup ($15.50) - the other classic Chinese-Korean dish, this is jjampong, a dish I've had many times. I was the only one to eat it, so ended up being my main dish. It was good, with thick noodles...just wish it had more seafood. Salt & Pepper Smelt ($16.90) - not sure if always available, but this was excellent...my favorite dish and one that I finished once I realized that everybody had their fill. It really depends on the quality of the smelt, which was excellent in this case. It was lightly battered, and carefully deep fried. Other dishes enjoyed by others: 2 Salt & Pepper Prawns - $35.90 - large head-on shell-on prawns fire wokked. Salt & Pepper Tofu ($11.50) - for the vegetarians Chicken Skewers (4) - $8.75 - tender and shareable Walnut Shrimp ($19.90) - mayo with shrimp Young Chow Fried Rice ($12.50) - fried rice is a necessity for our group Mongolian Beef ($17.50) - a classic 2 Sesame Ball (4) - $7 - a great way to finish a meal. 18% tip was automatically added, and service was OK throughout. Our water was kept refilled, and I think hot water was as well. It was a good meal and opportunity to get back together

Both the service and quality of food has gone way down from what they were famous for. The waitress spilled my tea, also dipped her finger in my tea, had no apology or offer to exchange it with a fresh cup. I had to ask her for a fresh cup of tea. Then the other server that brought our entrees spilled my husbands tea and again no offering to getting a fresh cup. We had to ask AGAIN for a fresh cup! While the portions were generous, the quality of all the food has gone way down. The special family recipe of thier shrimp dish Gan Pong is nothing but fried shrimp with dried chili peppers and no flavor. The Hunan spicy beef and chicken appeared to be all globs and sticky because of excessive and over use of corn starch used during the cooking process. This dish didn't have any unique flavor that one would expect. Previously we had experienced a difference in the food, taste and quality and that's what kept us returning. Sadly, after this experience I wouldn't recommend it to anyone or come back! I'd rather stick with Yu's Mandarin than drive to this place! Quality always wins over quantity in my books!

Here's what I ordered: 1) Roti Canai served with Malaysian chicken curry - the curry is unlike Indian curry. This is a typical Malaysian style curry. You take a piece of the crispy yet a little chewy pan fried dough and dipped in this curry broth. That combination will kick off your appetite. 2) Seafood and Tofu clay pot - a mix of fish fillet, squid, shrimp, vegetables and homemade tofu served in a clay pot. The tofu is delicious - crispy outside with soft and silky center - chef's kiss! 3) String bean mixed with balacan - balacan is a Malaysian sambal sauce made with shrimp paste and chili. It has this savory, sweet and lightly spicy flavor mixed with crispy string beans. It was a delightful dinner! There are many other dishes that I'll come back for, especially other dishes with their homemade tofu.
