    Pork dumplings
    Ahashta J.

    Nice place! Beautiful decor, clean and peaceful. Stopped in for late lunch with the family. We had a smorgasbord. Flying dragon sushi roll, pork veekoo dumplings, Kung pao shrimp, chicken fried rice, hot and sour soup, and chicken coconut lemongrass soup. Every bite was delicious! My husband was talking about the hot and sour soup hours later. Food was fresh and bright. Service was attentive and efficient. We definitely would return.

    Lemon Chicken

    Berwyn is the middle child of the Veekoo family; Royersford being the oldest sibling, Bryn Mawr the youngest. For over ten years, I've been something of a semi-regular at both the Royersford and Berwyn locations; most recently, however, my dining partner and I have spent more time at the latter. In contrast to the homey atmosphere of the Royersford outpost, the ambiance here is stylishly chic in tone. Rich mahogany & black leather highlight the main dining area while hanging beaded room dividers and a creamy white rear wall add intriguing touches of textural contrast. Just to the right of the entrance is a more diminutive dining space dominated by a sleek high-top seven-seat sushi bar. I don't know who was responsible for the striking interior décor, but he/she/they did a splendid job of understating the case. Minimalist is the word that comes immediately to mind. Berwyn's décor notwithstanding, the draw here has always been the superior quality of the pan-Asian cuisine. My dining partner and I have some fond memories... Starters like the Tuna Tataki and Lettuce Wraps (pictured), for instance. The former featuring thin slices of black pepper seared tuna bathed in a pungent yuzu sauce; the latter headlining either diced chicken or shrimp companioned by a rich viscous hoisin. And entrées were equally up to the mark... presentations such as Salt-Baked Flounder, Black Pepper Filet Mignon, and Jumbo Shrimp with a colorful array of crunchy vegetables, for instance. Chicken in Black Bean Sauce was always my perpetual favorite... That is, until I tasted the Lemon Chicken. A white meat breast was pounded thin, lightly battered, and then gently sautéed until the crust reached a crispy consistency. It was then cut into bite-size pieces, garnished with slices of orange, and accompanied by a ramekin of the chef's special lemon-orange sauce. The chicken was incomparably tender, the sauce adding just the proper combo of sweetness and spice. But all of the above transpired a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away - or so it seems (ten years ago, to be absolutely precise). Things have changed significantly; and, judging by several recent visits, not for the better. Consider, for instance, a relatively simple conglomeration of house-made pork wontons, chicken broth, and scallions, Wonton Soup. In even the humblest of Asian eateries, this would be considered a no-brainer. And yet... the Veekoo rendition was, very simply, the bland-leading-the-bland. In other words, anything even approximating flavor was conspicuous by its absence. Moving on to the entrées, my Lo Mein - egg noodles garnished with eggs, shredded carrots, shredded cabbage & scallions - was garnished with vegetables (as opposed to other meaty options) and about as exciting as the above-mentioned Wonton Soup, which is to say, not at all. My dining partner, who is something of a devotee of General Tso's Chicken - deep-fried chicken in a sweet/spicy, savory sauce - considered Veekoo's version a good deal less than impressive. I don't mean to imply that the cuisine here is "bad." It is not. However, in my humble opinion, the overall quality of the food certainly seems to have deteriorated over time. What was once considered first-class is now barely squeaking by as economy coach. For veteran Veekoo diners - this writer included - the difference is all too palpable. The same may be said for the service. During our most recent visit, for example, we had barely started our appetizers when up pops our Speedy Gonzales server with the entrées. This is a practice I have soundly criticized in previous reviews; and it is usually the result of a server's inexperience or poor training. Here, however, we received the distinct impression that management's desire to turn over tables as quickly as possible definitely took precedence over diners' comfort. Yet another not so subtle indication of this restaurant's unfortunate decline.

    My friend and I dined here for lunch on Friday. We were a little early for our 11:45 reservation, but were seated immediately, as we were the first guests of the day. As soon as you walk in the door, the restaurant is beautiful and has a cool, classy ambience. Everything, including the restrooms, was clean and well maintained. The gentleman who seated us was also our server. I'm not sure if he had a rough morning, or was annoyed that we showed up early, but he was not friendly. No smile, all business. Despite his lack of personality, he was very attentive, got our order correct, and kept our water glasses filled -- all of which we were appreciative of! We started with the Szechuan dumplings, which were very tasty and had just the right amount of spicy heat. We both got the lunch special with 2 sushi rolls (I got spicy tuna and spicy crabmeat) plus miso soup. Everything was delicious and served at the proper temperature, and the food came out pretty quickly. As we were leaving, there was a nice woman at the host stand, and she warmly thanked us for coming, which made up for the otherwise awkward service! I would welcome the opportunity to come here again.

    Hot and sour soup is delicious
    Gail W.

    Try the hot and sour soup as well as shrimp. Hunan whichas eight large shrimp. I prefer the restaurant VeeKoo in Royersford and Bryn Mawr only because of the ambience.

    Spring roll appetizer
    Sandra R.

    Veekoo in Berwyn The restaurant was packed but Service was quick and friendly. The food was very delicious. Spring rolls, General Tso chicken, Basil chicken - all fantastic. We will definitely come back.

    Pink Lady Sushi Roll  Under special Rolls Delicious
    Ann B.

    Veekoo in Royersford Reservation 5:45 the restaurant was filled. our table was the only empty table. Great service, clean, Pink Lady was suggested on Yelp so tried it. Thank you to who ever suggested Pink Lady. BYOB

    California Roll with added cream cheese! Delicious!!
    Gabriella W.

    I love Veekoo. I live and work nearby and grab take-out for lunch or dine-in for dinner on a weekly basis. I have been able to try an assortment of options from their menu and have enjoyed almost everything I have tried! The sushi is amazing! It cannot be beat. The only down side would be the cost, however it is VERY worth it. I love their ocean roll and regularly get the classic California roll and add cream cheese. One of my favorite meals I have ever ordered from a restaurant is Veekoo's fried rice with shrimp and chicken that is served in a pineapple. It is so delicious! I have attempted to recreate this dish at home, but nothing compares. My only complaint would be that on occasion the chicken, in the dishes like Kung Pao Chicken or Chicken with Broccoli, seems as if it might not be fresh. It can get that kind of rubbery texture which is a huge turn-off for me. This is not always the case, but it has happened a few times. I highly recommend Veekoo and suggest you try their sushi and the fried rice!

    We did take out, average at best. Steamed dumplings were soggy, fried rice greasy. Will try other options next time.

    Creamiest salmon sushi in the area…read more Hot sour soup had the perfect balance. Solid job with house special rolls.

    I used to frequent Poseidon--mostly for lunch, sometimes for dinner, and a few times for takeout…read more One evening in the summer, I stopped in to order takeout. The young woman at the desk was engaged in a conversation with her friend. Both were about 17-19. I stood patiently waiting for quite a while. Finally I spoke up and said "May I see the takeout menu?" She handed one to me, and went back to her conversation. The "friend" sneered at me and moved so that she was blocking me from the register. I couldn't believe it. After a while I looked at the employee and finally said "Oh hey, I am ready to order." She glanced up and nodded. But went back to listening to her "friend." At this point I walked up to the register and said "Excuse me but I'd like to order." The "friend" GLARED at me, spitting venom from every pore. Then she launched into a TIRADE. I ignored her and placed my order. I won't lie though, I was fn shaking. Here I am, a middle-aged woman who's endured some trauma and BS in my life and come out on the other side, and this nasty little B is taking me on?! She continued to glare at me the entire time I was there waiting for my food, up to and including when I walked out the door. It was APPALLING. How no one got involved is just disgusting. I spoke to an employee and asked for the manager/owner. She said they weren't there. I left my name and number and asked for a call back. Heard nothing. The food is OK--not worth abuse. I never went back to Poseidon.

I had nine different Baos and some were good, but some were suboptimal. A few of my favorites were the Bang Bang, lil Bao Wow, and Bao Boa which the combination of flavors made sense on a bao and they didn't fall apart as easily due to the amount of filling they had or how soaked they were from the steam. The yenta, prime time, and crispy chick were okay. I wish there was a little bit more sauce on each one. I feel like the yenta would've been better with a larger pizza of pastrami as cutting it so thin and tiny sort of destroyed the flavor of it. The gringo was a bit on the drier side and the sticky chicky was underwhelming, I think it needed something extra to enhance the flavor profile of it. Lastly, I had the Hot Motha Clucka which was my least favorite of the nine. Not enough buffalo sauce and too much blue cheese, ultimately the blue cheese overpowered everything else and made this one a bit distasteful. The prices were also not much better, Nine Baos for $47 is absurd.
