Five Soup Dumplings
Sreyoshi B.

Was so excited to try this place on a friends recommendation. We got last minute reservations on a Saturday morning. The restaurant was quite empty. We were one of three couples dining in. It took them some time to get us seated, which wasn't a big deal since there were just two servers and no host per se so we assume they were busy. The good part - Food was a 3.5/5 maybe even a 4 overall. We got seated and got to appetizers - tried the5 soup dumplings, crab and truffle soup, and lychee shrimp. Presentation was good and taste was okay too. For mains we got the lobster udon and salt and pepper tiger prawns, both of which I liked. It was good comfort food for a particularly cold day. The food served was also nice and made sure we were doing okay. Now the bad - there were gnats flying all over which made me wonder how bad the kitchen was. The tables at the end of the room had a lot of junk (cleaning supplies and table cloth bundles) stowed on which made was very unappealing. The worst bit - we had not had the worst time and left a 22% tip. An hour later I received a phone call saying that my card had been declined and asking me for my card details. Thankfully I was able to log into my account and could see the transaction. I then asked them how much the bill amount was and what I had ordered - they told me an order completely different from mine. I'm glad I pushed back coz initially the person who called was pretty aggressive and rude about how my card had been declined and didn't want to wait for me to check my statement either. Having figured out their mistake they then quickly hung up - no apologies or explanation!! All of this left a terrible taste in my mouth. Overall, I don't think I'm going to return. If you go - beware of the gnats and please don't give them your credit card details over the phone without verification!

What an amazing fine dining restaurant! I love how all of the portion sizes are generous as fancier restaurants typically give the tiniest size plates. I love all of the unique dishes like the passion fruit prawn, creamy king crab udon, and lychee shrimp balls. My favorite was the lychee shrimp balls as the presentation was amazing and I've never seen anything like this. The waiter was friendly and our waters were consistently filled. The interior was clean and decorated nicely with the white tablecloths. I definitely want to come back to dry the lobster dishes!

This place is truly a hidden gem! Food was absolutely delicious. Lychee shrimp balls not only were they delicious the presentation was beautiful as well. The apple spritz mocktail was so yummy, they don't have their liquor license yet but I can't wait to try it that with some vodka. The Restaurant's decor beautiful, service warm and friendly. This is actually the first restaurant where I saw servers wearing gloves while serving food, which i actually appreciate. I highly recommend this restaurant for a special occasion & I will def be back there soon!

Inside

Located in the E 80's, this comfortably elegant UES restaurant w/ an overpriced wannabe elevated Chinese Cantonese menu that's neither fusion nor Americanized Chinese cuisine serves up above-average dishes w/ fresh quality ingredients. However, most of the dishes we tried lacked seasoning, refinement & "wok Hei" - that charred texture / aroma that cloaks piping-hot stir-fries - which is the foundation of most decent Chinese Canto dishes. Black Pepper Steak sauce was weirdly too sweet but the beef quality was good. Sautéed string beans were bland & didn't have that nice char, which is what makes the dish shine & is indicative of poor "wok hei" skills. Fried Lobster in garlic -although fresh- had too much batter & was also pretty bland. And although presented in a gimmicky way, Lychee Shrimp balls were creatively executed. They were decent but served w/ the wrong sauce. Perhaps, a sauce w/ a bit more acidity & spice would've been a better complement to seafood. Overall, we liked that each dish had fresh quality ingredients, which is usually harder to come by at Chinese restaurants on the UES. Hence, the 3.75-star Yelp rating. Hopefully, they can work it out & focus on executing more authentic Cantonese flavors & hiring a chef who knows how to cook w/ "wok Hei." And we'll be back to try more dishes.

Steamed Chicken Potstickers

Service was great, ambiance is lovely, both set you up to experience a gastronomic phenomenon that just does not occur. The chicken potstickers skin was tough and dry but the flavor profile of the dumpling itself was delicious. The Kung Pao chicken and bokchoy in garlic sauce were okay but nothing to write home about. I guess if the place didn't raise expectations through its aesthetic and story you wouldn't be as let down but it was really disappointing to me. I wouldn't recommend it.

I went here on a girls night birthday dinner last week and currently the place is located under scaffolding. There are two spots to sit for a more fancier setting. I requested the corner table under the chubby or rather bubbly or youth like Mona Lisa portrait but that table required at least 6 people. We were only a party of 4, therefore, we opted for the mushroom flower tree background. There was no cocktail menu due to their liquor license of only beer and wine. I was fine with that. I started with the I love Lychee mocktail. For appetizers we shared the truffle mushroom and lychee shrimp. The lychee shrimp is must order just for a social media video. Both dishes were amazing and worth ordering at least once. For the entrees we shared the passion fruit tiger Prawns, curry Veggies with Scallion pancakes, sautéed green beans, king crab udon, succulent branzino and salt and pepper shrimp. Everything tasted amazing and portions were generous. I also had a glass of sancerre. For dessert, we shared the limoncello truffle and chocolate for my friend's birthday. I will definitely return to try other items on the menu. For the amount of food and drinks we ordered, it was definitely affordable compared to other upscale Asian cuisine.

My family had an absolutely phenomenal dining experience here. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, elegant, and inviting -- the perfect balance of upscale yet comfortable. It's fusion Chinese Food. Great for celebrations. Our server, Angel, went above and beyond with attentive, friendly, and professional service. He anticipated our needs, made great recommendations, and truly elevated the experience. He even made me espresso coffee exactly to my taste. The food was nothing short of outstanding. The Filet Mignon was perfectly cooked, melt-in-your-mouth tender, and seasoned with incredible depth of flavor. The Kung Pao Chicken was one of the best we've ever had -- a perfect balance of spice, crunch from the peanuts, and freshness from the snap peas and peppers. Every bite was packed with flavor and texture. We finished the meal with a dessert that was not only delicious but also beautifully plated -- creative presentation that made it feel like art on the plate, and the flavors matched the beauty. Pairing everything with a rich espresso, served in elegant gold-trimmed china, made the entire meal feel special. This restaurant delivers on every level: service, quality, ambiance, and presentation. Highly recommended, and we will definitely be back!

Fantastic experience at Tang By Mr Sun. The sweet and sour chicken stood out--tender chicken breast, lightly crisped, with a bright, flavorful sauce that wasn't overly sweet. The fried rice was exactly the kind you want to eat by the spoonful--perfectly seasoned, not too oily, and incredibly satisfying. Also loved the crispy shrimp--lightly battered, piping hot, and super fresh. Everything was plated beautifully, with thoughtful garnishes that showed attention to detail. Each dish felt elevated without being fussy. Overall, the food was consistently high quality and really satisfying. The ambiance is sleek and playful in the best way. A glowing bonsai-style tree adds drama to the minimalist interior, and the quirky portrait reminiscent of Botero gives the space unexpected personality. My new fav high end Chinese resto.

Came back to Tang by Mr Sun on a Friday evening for dinner. They had a 1 ballon, and this restaurant has been open for 1 year! Hope it will stay in business for a long time to come! We really love their Peking duck, it is definitely one of the best we've had. The skin is so crispy and perfectly cut. The pancake is very thin and perfect. I don't like the wraps to be thick, I've been to other restaurants and the wraps are bun-like, terrible! Can't even taste the duck at that point! This time we also tried their Maryland crab cake, which was divine! Yes the pieces when they came out were small (small bite size) however they redeemed themselves when the inside was entirely of crab! I've had crab cakes where they were large but full of breading. But this wasn't the case at all! I was impressed and it was served with a tangy mustard sauce. We also ordered the string beans, which was a nice portion. Overall we love coming to Tang!

Whenever walking past by Tang by Mr Sun there's always a crowd so decided to check it out. Great location in the UES. A perfect upscale date spot. Beautiful and clean interior with modern decor. Great service and attentive staff. Food was served immediately. Started the dinner with soup dumpling assortment which were delicious especially with the vinegar. The main dishes were subpar unfortunately. The texture of the chicken was off for every single meal. It was sooo soft and didn't taste like chicken at all, rather soft as tofu. This really knocked the ranking. We did appreciate the amount of protein and portion of each meal but texture of the chicken was disappointing. All plates were aesthetically pleasing in terms of presentation but overall food looked better in photos. Recommend only if you're in the area and want to check out something new or for a local date night.

As the name implies, it really is an excellent dumpling house!…read more Me and my buddies were in Jersey and New York for some hockey games, and wanted to go to a deli, get some Chinese food, and a slice of pizza. Got off the E train and when we looked for Chinese food, this place popped up with good reviews and it was just a short walk from where we got off the train. My buddies ordered the special lunches and we also got two types of xlb's, beef chow fun, and some fried dumplings. The special lunches come with a little fried rice, cold garlic flavored noodle, choice of egg drop or hot and sour soup, and main side. My buddies all enjoyed their meals. The beef chow fun was also really good and beef was nice and tender. The xiao long baos were excellent and is comparable to any place in California like DTF. Nice and juicy and great with some ginger, soy sauce, and spicy chili. Friendly service and food comes out pretty quickly. Credit card is accepted. Bathroom was also very clean, which is sometimes rare in some Chinese restaurants I have been to. If you're looking for a good Chinese meal, stop here when you're in the Chelsea area.

I hadn't been to EDH in a while and was happy to see they do have later hours (with a smaller late night menu). The place was pretty busy at 10:00 PM last Saturday, with a wide range of diners, which is good for business. The food though, at least that night, was really disappointing. My friend had the chicken dumplings. He said they were okay. I thought they were overcooked. My steamed shrimp shumai were fine, but steamed, they didn't have much flavour. The edamame, on the other hand, had way too much when it should have almost none. I don't know if it was excess salt, MSG or something else, but not good. I should have sent them back. I hope this was just an off night for the kitchen.

The pacing of the meal for the quantity of food received seemed very rushed, and we didn't really have a chance to relax and enjoy any of the courses. However, the quality of the experience was a complete disaster particularly for the price. Clearly, the packed restaurant would disagree, but for the four of us anyway, we would not return. It started with the check in process at what felt like a long hotel front desk with multiple, self important hosts and hostesses overseeing your entrance to the cavernous bar/waiting area. One problem is the noise is so deafening that you can't really hear what they say to you but we check in a few minutes early and waited obediently in the bar area chatting. After about 30 minutes (15 after our reservation time), and watching numerous parties large and small who arrived after us be seated by the hostesses wandering through the dimly lit space who peer quizzically and ask your name, my husband went to ask for an update. (We joked that those vibrating lighted buzzers alerting when your table was ready would have been super helpful, but it was amusing to watch while we waited). It was clear they somehow lost track of us as she had him repeatedly spell our (not unusual) name. Anyway, after that, within 10 minutes after that we were taken downstairs to our seats (but not before standing awkwardly in the large dining area near packed tables waiting while our table was cleaned). Server with a heavy accent was kind and mostly helpful so none of this is on him. The busser who managed to spill half a pitcher of cold water on my husband's back, soaking his shirt and jacket and barely apologizing, is a whole other story. We managed to get a glass of his mediocre Cabernet comped for the experience. If I sound annoyed, I guess I still am. I had high hopes for a fun and tasty experience in a cool part of the city and it just wasn't.

And indeed, there was a rope up separating it from the front dining room. There was a table of people sitting there, but I was told that was management having a meeting. I asked when the room might be opened because we were willing to wait. I was told that there was no way for them to know. The front room was already full, by the way, except for the table that we seated at. Within 10 minutes, the back room opened and people started to go in.

They were people seated at tables all around the room. It was obvious that none of them knew each other. It wasn't a private party. I didn't bother to ask about this because at that point appetizers had arrived and it was too late to move to another table.
