Ken Kee, even though it changed hands prior to the remodel, has been a long-time family favorite…read morefor late dinners and afternoon snacks and take-out...and I do like Chinatown Square because you don't have to worry about cars once inside... Lately, we've really gotten into their Afternoon Tea which includes two types of French toast and we always get both...and I like both equally - especially the one filled with cream and topped with Ovaltine...but the Honey one is really good too...as you can see - I'm really torn between the two!! But the Pineapple bun option seems to be always sold-out?? You can have this with either a milk tea or lemon tea and personally, I would select the milk tea because it's sweeter and creamier. So many fond memories here at Ken Kee, of being with family and loved ones...the decor also makes me long to go back to HK, one day!!

Feels like authentic Chinese Food…read more Fun, bright, fun atmosphere and extremely speedy service. A go to lunch spot in China Town. Their flavored iced tea is yummy, the egg drop soup surprised me with having vegetables in it, the egg rolls were extremely hot (temp) and tasty. The meat doesn't seem like the highest quality, but it's still a spot I'd recommend.

As a big dim sum fan, I thought this place was awesome! We arrived right when they opened and were…read morethe first group seated. By the time we finished our meal, the dining room was completely full and there was even a line forming outside, which is always a great sign. Unlike some traditional dim sum restaurants, they don't use carts here. Instead, you order from a paper menu, which I actually prefer because it's easier to browse all the options and make sure you don't miss anything. Everything we ordered was freshly made, looked beautiful, and tasted delicious. We even had to stop and take photos before digging in! The staff was attentive throughout our meal, and the food came out quickly despite how busy the restaurant became. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would definitely come back the next time we're in Chinatown.

Superb Chinese spot in Chicago's Chinatown. Huge seating area and very nice staff. But you're going…read morehere for the Dim Sum. They have a lot of it and it's ALL good. I'm partial to the vegetarian one as well as the shrimp one. Really really good. However, do not, do not sleep on the Mongolian beef. It's exceptional and they have great sticky rice to accompany it. I'm a Mongolian beff connoisseur and this one didn't disappoint. This is a Dim Sum place but they also do other classic Chinese dishes very well!

It was super early in the morning so not much was open yet in Chinatown. We went on a wimp as this place opened early like 830 we arrived and we came so early not all the dishes were available. Got congee and crepe and some egg tarts. The name looked familiar & we realized that they are the pastries we see in the grocery store park to shop. Overall pretty ok and good congee.

The prices here are reasonable and the portion sizes are decent! Would highly recommend the rice roll and the chicken porridge. They also sell different kinds of breads. The workers there speak Cantonese, English and taishanese. The restaurant has seating that reminds me of a Chinese fast food place. The restaurant has plenty of seating and is clean!

Felt so interactive and we got to see exactly what went into the soup. - Shredded chicken in Sichuan spicy sauce: Flavorful but the chicken tasted a bit dry to me I also appreciated the mini sauce bar. We made dipping sauce for the meats and had some sliced oranges. Definitely coming back again!

It was really good, definitely exceeding expectations! The tea was legit! You can adjust the sugar and ice levels. I got it unsweetened which was good for me - the lychee jelly added a little sweetness - and forgot to ask for less ice like I usually get, but the regular ice level was perfect to keep my drink cold outside. I also got my drink with almond milk - they get big bonus points from me for offering almond and coconut as non-dairy alternatives for the milk teas.

By the looks of things, B.I. Tea & Dim Sum is one of the most popular places in the French Market…read more It has long lines most of the time. Likely you'll have a long wait. After you place an order, it gives you plenty of time to wonder if it was worth it. The answer is usually yes because this is one of the better values in the Market and who doesn't like bubble tea, or dim sum. A popular place for people getting onto a train is this place, but don't wait for long. It takes some time making the tea and dim sum. There's a wait. A thing to know is they cook the dumplings to order, so don't expect to just walk up and get a few. The ordering of the tea is less of an issue. It's about $5 for a cup. They have frozen and hot. Also they have non dairy milk choices. There's the vegan Almond Milk Tea. As for the dumplings, place your order right away. It's about $6 for a few pieces. The Veggie Dumplings are good but there just aren't many of these. Portions are small, which is the main complaint. The dumplings are pretty good, considering this is just a counter and not really presented as restaurant level quality. Good options for travelers at the Ogilvie Transportation Center. It's convenient to carry around on the go. They make the dumplings to order and these take awhile, so order in time if you need to get on a train.

We visited after a Sox game and it was a delicious, cozy meal after a few having a few beers. We ordered the Crispy chicken noodle soup and it came out very quickly. Not to mention the staff was kind and the overall restaurant was very clean. This is one of those places that just hits the spot and noodles were so fresh! I would 1000% come back to try their other broths. If you're looking for a soup place don't skip out on Le Shrimp!

I visited Le Shrimp Noodle Bar on a friend's recommendation and it was pretty good…read more I went with the Crispy Cod Noodles and gotta say the broth (apparently simmered for over 8 hours) was definitely very shrimp forward, as well as being thick and rich. The cod did come crispy, but make sure you eat it fast because this batter soaks up the broth and becomes soggy in no time. I also tried the Chilled Tofu, which I liked, and got myself an iced tea. I also ordered a side of Lava Eggs, although I did not like the sour soy sauce it was in. I didn't try any of the chicken stuff here, but my guess is the braised soy sauce chicken will be in a similar sauce. Very decent dinner overall.
