This strip mall Chinese place looks unpromising from the outside, but within the food & service are excellent. We had fried & soup dumplings, which the server explained were hot & explosive, & he showed us how to eat them. Not a fancy restaurant, but an excellent value.

Ordered delivery from this restaurant this evening. Some of the worst Chinese food I've ever had. The fried rice was decent, but everything else (general tao, spring rolls, dumplings) were barely edible. Even the soup was suspect… I've never seen brown algae floating in a Won Ton soup. Will not order from here again.

Very good general tao & wonton soup. Great value & portion size. Have eaten here several times, never an issue.

Bon resto asiatique. Mets typiquement chinois. Excellente soupe won ton (gros bol). Éclairage de néon blanc...ouf pour l'ambiance! Facture très abordable. Pas de permis d'alcool. Beaucoup de takeout. Service un peu long.

Just discovered this gem! Portion of the soup dumpling were very generous compared to more renowned places! So delicious. I will come back & recommend this place to others as well

Delicious- from the Pork & Coriander Long bao to the General Tao (with actual chicken not scraps of gross leftovers), & very good portion sizes, it is worth a trip or even to order via Uber. They even have Lotus Lead Sticky Rice! Some dishes last me two meals or can be shared as the portions are generous - even the small wonton soup. Very clean & tidy restaurant.

Best won ton soup ever! Bouillon delicieux avec coriandes! Tres authentique. Visite en salle a manger aujourd'hui, immense portion de General Tao, menu du jour incluant soupe won ton & rouleau. Prix raisonnable & portion généreuse. Service en français ! Bravo

I almost don't want to rate this place so high, in case more people find it! Some of the BEST dumplings I've had on the South Shore. Xiao long bao were beautiful, tons of flavour, & plenty of soup. Lots of options for fried & steamed dumplings, as well as more typical plates for friends who prefer noodles/fried foods. Service was a little confused (different servers kept coming back to my table after I'd already paid) but I can't wait to go back!
