    We couldn't finish the food as they all tasted awful.

    such a disappointment, how can you named yourself steam cafe if you can't make soup dumplings right? I wonder if they made gluten-free soup dumplings, no way you can pick them up without breaking the wrapper, and there's no flavor at all, we left hungry.

    This establishment cater to fast and common dishes. The volume is reasonable, taste is good, and service is excellent. Need a seat down quick meal, you will not be disappointed. Located behind Carrollton 99 super market.

    Food is great l. The dumpling are hand made and the filling is huge. Their steam meal come with 9'e dish plus soup veggies and side dishes it's enough for two people. We also order the milk fish soup it taste amazing. The service is great! They were very at tentative. The place is a little hard to find cause the entrance is small but when you get inside there is a ton of seatings

    The waiting time for food was unbelievable long. The waitress explained the bun is fresher made and cooked, and that's why it's taking so long. Well I used to go to Din Tai Fung all the time when I was living in LA. The waiting time was never long. Anyways, the kaofu was not cooked properly, and was still partially cold. The waitress took it off the bill. The vinegar for bun had a sweet soda taste in it. I don't know how the hell that could happen. The total bill is $50.83, not cheap but for this type quality of food is just not worth at all.

    Imperial Feast - Pork intestine with green mustard

    We went around 12:30pm and there were people waiting. The lady that checked us in said it was a 30…read moreminute wait with 2 parties ahead of us. As we were waiting, we noticed that 4-5 tables were done eating and paid their bills. All got up and left, the staff quickly cleaned the tables. The cleaned tables were empty for another 15 minutes. The lady that took our names down took a while to call the next customers. Seems like we were waiting just to wait...she sat one party down and waited another 10 minute to sit the next group... anyways, after we waited for a good 40 minutes, we were finally called to be seated. Sat down and was immediately served with water and took our order down. Time for the food review: Chicken popcorn - nice crisp and texture, but lacking flavor. Felt like it needed a dipping sauce. Pork lard rice - disappointing, bland Pork intestine with green mustard - this dish was okay.. Crispy garlic salted fish - fish was nicely fried and flavor was good. Probably the best dish so far Crispy pork chop - this is the reason why we came here.. we wanted to find a dish like May Ice cream. Unfortunately, this was a huge disappointment. The pork chop was extremely salted. From the skin to the pork itself. Walnut shrimp - this dish was foul. Who puts sprinkles on the side?! Tasted like I was eating an ice cream shop. The shrimp was also dry. Overall, not worth going and waiting. Food was lacking.

    FYI the old reviews are for a previous restaurant or different location, unsure. This review is for…read moreImperial Feast which opened August 2025 next to z.Tao in Plano. Came during the soft opening in September 2025 with excited expectations based on what we've heard, hoping to find a new go to Taiwanese spot. Unfortunately we didn't find what we were looking for. I admit this was the soft opening and things may improve, and for their sake I hope they do. Biggest issues for us were lack of flavor in the meat and multiple proteins being overcooked. The sauces they used had the flavor but it seems like the meat just wasn't given the time to marinate because the meat itself was bland. That coupled with proteins being a bit dry from being overcooked and you don't have a good combo. If they can tweak their prep process to let the meat marinate then it would solve most of the problems though. The best dish was the fried pork chop rice by far. A bit on the sweeter side so it just depends on how you like it. The bok choy it came with was basically raw though had more crunch than the pork chop. Service was also a mixed bag. The server was super nice and helped give us recs but it just seemed like they were still getting the hang of working in a restaurant. A glass of water got some food in it so the server took it away but they never brought us a new one. Again, soft opening so I give that some grace, but food has to be more on point for a new restaurant to make it. So all in all, there are definitely some kinks to work through for them. Normally I wouldn't write a review for soft opening but given that there are old reviews here plus food quality missed the mark more than I think it should've, I think people on Yelp should get a heads up.

Sadly there was no lamb. The sauce bar only had soy sauce and white vinegar. If I want a build your bowl hotpot, yin tang has way more options and they don't have a 1 lb minimum, and they have sauce options. They had many noodle options, but no low carb noodles. No shirataki knots, sadly. I'm doing keto, so this was disappointing because yin tang has shirataki knots. I got spicy level 1. The soup tasted good and I liked what I added to my soup. The sauce bar was extremely disappointing.

It's a self service restaurant, but enough tables to also sit down and eat. The staff was really kind and helped me throughout the entire night, guiding me through the process. It's similar to other malatang places, where you pick your own ingredients. The only thing is any meats you'd want is already in a smaller bag on the side, with a fixed weight. I'm assuming it's for sanitary reasons. The per pound price is a bit higher, but it's justified- the flavor of the stir fry was really flavorful, all the ingredients are very fresh. They also give you a loyalty card where you can get free items if you order X amount of times.
