This place looked great but food was not good. Dim sum was cold as if it was fresh out the freezer. The noodles and meats we ordered were also cold. We had to tell the server the food was cold every round but nothing changed. Definitely would not recommend coming here.

Tried this all you can eat Chinese place in a whim, after a visit to Fry's next door. Glad I did! This place is quite large, and the decor is a step up from the usual AYCE Chinese restaurants. There is a bar and cocktail menu, which is a plus, though we didn't order cocktails at 11:30 a.m. one wall has a lovely mural, and there are booths and tables, with some large round booths, too This is not a buffet. When you are seated, you are given an iPad or tablet of some kind. You scroll through and "shop" for what you want, adding if to the cart. When you are ready, click yo place the order. The food comes out relatively fast. This place has some of the best Dan Dan Noodles and Orange Chicken that I have ever had. So delicious! In fact, everything we ordered was fantastic. There is one downfall to the ordering system. You are not in control of the size of the servings. I ordered my noodles first, and the serving was quite large. This means I will have less "room" to try other things, especially because there is a charge for uneaten food. It's not badly priced for the quality of food at all AYCE restaurant, and I am sure I will return. So delish!

Mapo tofu

Dined in for an early dinner on a Saturday--the service was exceptional, very attentive and professional; the restaurant was clean; and the ambience felt upscale. Their menus are extensive; there is a main menu and another that has their specials. We ordered a few dishes to share, and overall, the food was good, but only one was truly memorable. - 1/2 signature duck: presentation was unique; it came out in a chest with some veggies, two sauces, and tortillas. The duck itself was a little bland in flavor from what I'm used to. If you want the flaming duck, you'll need to order the whole duck. You get an additional dish that they make with the duck bones (choice of stir fry salt/pepper or a bone broth). The broth is better, but I don't think either is worth the $50 for the 1/2 duck dish ($99 for whole). The stir fry dish didn't have much flavor since it was just salt and pepper. - Szechwan crispy pork app is an absolute must try. The pork was exceptionally crispy, not oily, and the accompanying Szechwan chili powder is to die for. - mapo tofu, flaming beef ribs, and hot & sour crab meat soup were good. The flaming beef ribs dish is essentially kalbi but the marinade missed the mark. Worth a try if you've been thinking about it to see for yourself and to try the crispy pork~

Cute cup. First cup that was on the plate was dirty so I got a new one.. Should have been the warning sign.

OK it's been a while since I've been to a restaurant so bad that it deserve a one star review. One of my coworker told me about this AYCE dimsum place (I will have to beat him up next time I see him. ). So we were in the mood for dimsum and considering how we spend 60-80 everytime we go to dimsum, we decided to try this place. Got there when they first opened up and had to sign in before getting sat, even though thetr were no wait.. Ok what ever.. Restaurant seems new and nicely designed and decors. I was told it's AYCE and you basically click on the pad of dishes you want, submit and kitchen will bring the food out, right there I was like Umm ok guess I don't get people pushing carts around and pick out what you want.. Even though I saw few trays ready to go. I was disappointed to see that menu had about maybe 20% dimsum and rest Chinese food.. Ordered few dimsum, chow mein, edamame, garlic chicken, orange chicken, crab puff, fried shrimp and so on.. As you can see by what I ordered they had mainly Chinese food. Sticky rice and black beans/ribs I was told they are out of them so couldn't order.. Im going wth they just opened few minutes ago. Now comes the food, dimsum was probably the sadest dimsum I've ever eaten. They tasted like ones you ordered frozen and you steam them yourself. Orange chicken, practically cold, sesame chicken was basically same as orange chicken plus sprinkle of sesame seeds. Chow mein was more like low mein and cold. Only thing that tasted pretty good was the edamame. Tea was good other than having to ask twice and took 25 mins. Lady did come by with one tray that had some dimsum and had sticky rice so I grabbed one, which was OK.. Ordered some fried rice to eat the rest of sesame chicken so it don't go to waste.. Cold, conch dish Luke warm, when we finally got egg drop soup because they forgot, luke warm. My wife commented that they probably have all the main dishes made like buffet and they just put them in the dish as people order considering the temperature. You know it's bad when I'm sitting here going, dang I had better Chinese food at Panda Express. Ordered few more dimsum to get my money's worth which never came.. I ended up asking for check after seeing a lady come by full the water cup, wearing gloves, then wife noticed she was also picking up dirty dishes off the table. So we sat there watched her as the same lady cleaned few tables grabbing dirty dishes and cups, walk over to the station and empty them. Then grab new set of dishes and silverware and set the table. And all that while she was still wearing the same gloves. At that point we said ok I think I'm done eating. Asked for my check and complained about the sanitation issues, and the young girl says yeah they are not that clean here, I've only been working here few days.. I'll let the manager know.. Get my bill, over 60 bux for 2 people, then I noticed sign that said $6 extra if you want to add the dimsum to AYCE. I have never been to such over priced flavorless cold Chinese restaurant in my life. Not only would I never come back here, I am letting you know to stay the blip away frim this place.. If I get food poisoning or sick tomorrow I will know why.

The interior of the space is massive. I wasn't expecting it to be as large as it was but it was nice. Staff is super attentive. They're definitely used to people knowing what they want shortly after sitting down with the menus. Friends & I came in for dinner & to catch up. I kinda feel bad we had to say, probably 4 or so times, we hadn't looked at the menu because we were so engrossed in catch up. I saw some of the reviews about consistency in temperature and I totally get it. My friends Mongolian beef, while delicious, wasn't super hot but felt more warm. The fish soup my friend ordered came in a ginormous metal bowl. I really should have taken a picture of the side of the bowl to show how large it was. It's definitely more sharing size than one person but the fish was perfectly delicate and delicious. The broth was out of this world amazing. I would come back for the broth alone!! The garlic ribs were completely covered in garlic & whatnot to the point that I had a hard time finding the ribs. When I did, they were delicious but be mindful, it's a lot of garlic. The sliced pork appetizer was happy and very good but again, the temperature consistency seems to be questionable. Prices are reasonable. The music on a Saturday night was more like sleepy piano music. I weirdly enjoyed it but it was very unexpected but not 100% sure it goes "with the vibe" as the kids say these days. lol. There was also a weird techno version of "happy birthday" that was played. Overall, lovely place.

Stellar 66 keeps popping up on Instagram as a place to visit for all you can eat dumplings and I love dumplings so it was worth checking out. The restaurant was large with a space/lunar theme, which explains the name. You ordered directly from a POS and they brought the food out to you. Good came out quickly. The all you can eat lunch special had a lot of options and they were all pretty good. The chili dumplings were my favorite. I plan to go back to try the soup dumplings, which were not part of the special.

I had dinner with my mom and sister here on Monday night and it was pretty good. Quickly upon us walking in, we were greeted and asked if we had a reservation. We did not so he had us follow him to an empty table. All booths were taken so we were seated in a round booth with a very small table. At this time, the menus were dropped off. The table set us was really nice and the gold tea pot along with the yellow plates made it look fancy. We looked over the menu and ordered: 1 Hot and sour crab soup 1 Appetizer sampler: 2 egg rolls, 2 dumplings, 2 ragoons 1 Chicken with mushroom 1 Kung pao chicken 1 Combo fried rice 1 Spicy green beans 2 White rice The soup and appetizers came out first. The server served us each a cup of soup and left us the rest. The soup was mmmmmm delicious. It was hot, flavorful, and had plenty of crab meat. The appetizers were ok - nothing special. Our entrees started coming out one by one and our table started getting crammed. This table was definitely not big enough for all the plates we ordered, lol. The green beans were cooked well as they were crunchy and had a lot of flavor - they were not spicy. The chicken with mushrooms dish was my favorite and it went will with the white rice. The fried rice was ok and the kung pao chicken was yummy. Service was great as all the servers who were working checked up on us several times and they were friendly. The inside is pretty spacious and the décor and lighting makes it feel fancy. In total we spent about $115 with tip and we had food leftover. We will be back!

Sweet and sour shrimp
Corinna M.

I didn't get to try the new AYCE dim sum because it's only during lunch time, but we stopped in for dinner. The place tries to have modern decor but it was empty other than the workers cleaning with 1.5 hours left before closing. We ordered from the a la carte menu. Our family had chicken lettuce cups, sesame chicken, sweet and sour shrimp with fried rice, dan dan noodles. The food was underwhelming overall. The entrees are a large portion, enough to be shared if so desired. The fried rice was inedible and overcooked. Noodles were ok. I liked the lettuce cups but they literally only give you 4 pieces of lettuce so there was more chicken left than could be served in the cups. I see they have been receiving mixed reviews on Yelp. I would have to agree. Not sure we will venture back to even try the dim sum. This restaurant needs a lot of work to fill my Chinese food cravings.

Orange chicken, crab puffs, and Dan Dan.
Lisa C.

Very clean restaurant with a moody and modern vibe. Staff were very nice and attentive. We opted for the dumpling lunch AYCE. The surprise of today was enjoying the dan dan noodles and orange chicken. Dumplings were okay- more dense and not seasoned as well as I'm used to so they were not my favorite but that's okay it's not for everyone.

Pineapple fried rice

Stellar 66 is little out of our way, but we wanted to try it. Very glad we did because they had many of our favorite dishes here. They had a set menu which made decisions little easier. Our favorite was the spicy wontons, which came with lot of extra sauce so we ended up using it on other dishes. Spicy XLB was interesting but probably stick to regular one next time. The garlic spare ribs were little on the dryer side but had lot of flavor. The fried rice and Dan Dan noodles were as expected. They were serving Peking duck at the next table; which looked very good so made a mental note to order next time. Enjoy! Highly recommend!!

Spicy wonton dumplings
Dawn M.

I've been to the Fry's grocery store many times and always seen this place but never checked it out until now. The restaurant has great space. Not sure if they do events, but this would be the place to get a large part of people. The ambiance is nice and elegant. My husband and order the spicy wonton dumplings with beef noodle soup. The spicy wontons were not spicy at all but more so the dumplings in a bed of chili oil. They're your average delicious dumplings. The beef noodle soup we enjoyed the most. The broth was decent, savory and not too salty. I appreciated the lean beef. The last few beef noodle soups I had were mostly fatty pieces and not enough protein. Service was good. The restaurant has a bar with TVs. Great for watching the games. Plenty of parking. The only downside is probably, price, if that matters. Most of the dishes ranged from $15 and up.

Szechuan chili oil wontons
Jason M.

My wife and I came for lunch on a Saturday at 12:30 PM. It wasn't busy, only a couple other diners dining. The restaurant shares a parking lot with multiple businesses but you won't have any trouble finding a spot. We started with Szechuan chili oil wontons. They were juicy but not too spicy. We then shared the braised beef noodle soup. That beef was so tender! The broth was tasty and the noodles were al dente. Nice modern/elegant ambiance here, it would be a nice place to take a date! Tons of seating, it could accommodate large groups. They have a bar with TVs to watch the game too! Overall, I had a pretty Stellar dining experience!

Spicy Crispy Shrimp
Maricella T.

Our first time here and we will be back! Maybe it was because we were the first ones here at opening (11:00am) but everything was fresh, delicious and served with such friendliness. The also served us so quickly! The lamb dumplings were my favorite along with the deep fried golden buns. The Dan Dan noodles were also a big hit. The place is clean and authentically decorated which adds to the experience. A must try!

I'm not usually a spice person, but I was left feeling tingly but not in pain and not numb. Overall I found Heng's Kitchen to be disproportionately pricey given the taste and portion sizes. I'm pretty critical and discerning about my XLB, and this place did not totally satisfy my craving, although I was pleasantly surprised about the chicken. Note: rice is not included with any dish and is $1 extra. Free room-temperature self-serve water available.

It's worth sharing with the table to try different dishes! The house pan fried noodles were soo good but it's best you eat them at the restaurant since the crispy noodles will get soggy if you order take-out. They also have an employee who makes pies and they sell them in house. The slices were huge for $7 or so! They had peanut butter chocolate and coconut!
