    (L-R) Cumin Lamb, Eggplant in Garlic Sauce, braised Okra with Giant Oyster Mushroom, Singapore Noodles Combination, Xao Long Bao
    Pappa P.

    My wife wanted to try this for our lunch today, especially since our GOTO for Chinese changed ownership/service/flavor... We ordered: Cumin Lamb (side: fried rice); Singapore Noodle Combination (chicken/shrimp/beef); Eggplant w/ Garlic Sauce (side: steamed rice); Okra w/ Giant Oyster Mushroom (side: steamed rice); and Xao Long Bao (6 pcs). WOW! The braised okra with giant oyster mushroom positively SURPRISED and leap frogged to the top of my preferred vegetable GOTOs...The cumin lamb was SO tender and VERY flavorful. One of the best preparations yet. The Singapore noodle combo and Xao Long Bao did not disappoint... More importantly, the service we received was attentive, courteous, knowledgeable, and prompt. Sadly, the eggplant with garlic sauce is the ONLY reason a star is withheld for this review...it detracted from traditional Chinese style; notes of garlic eviscerated by the chef's sweetening to satisfy an American palette...Why fix something that's unbroken?...I get it. The restaurant has to cater to its customers who populate this mix use (business/lease residential) area at the NW corner of Alma and Hwy 121, but doesn't that limit its draw? Guess we'll just have to head either further south on Central (HWY 75) to the Legacy & Spring Creek areas or further west to the Preston and Warren Pkwy Frisco TX area to satisfy our authentic Chinese cuisine food cravings.

    Chef Sun's Noodle & Dumpling is a Chinese restaurant in Plano that serves traditional Chinese cuisine and very plump soup dumplings. If you live in the area, it's a quality spot to get your soup dumpling fix. My Overall Rating - 3 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - Located in a strip mall with plenty of parking, the first thing I noticed was Chef Sun's was very busy (great sign). The restaurant itself wasn't very memorable, and the table we sat at was next to a drink fridge and lots of traffic. 1/2 Star. Service - The staff at Chef Sun's was great, especially for a busy Chinese restaurant. The staff proactively kept our glasses full of water and were always on hand to help. Once we placed our order, food just kept coming from the staff as each dish was brought out piping hot and fresh. 1 Star. Food - The Xa Long Bao (soup dumplings) were nice and plump, freshly cooked and super-hot. This was the best part of the meal. The traditional Chinese dishes like their noodles were all a bit oily for my taste. Thee two appetizers - fried shrimp (very safe choice) were crispy without being greasy and the red dipping sauce was more sweet than spicy. And the spicy edamame was good. Overall plenty of good, but nothing super memorable. 1 Star. Will I Return? - Only if I'm in the area and I want soup dumplings. Chef Sun's Noodle & Dumpling has some oily noodles and great dumplings. I wouldn't go out of my way to visit here, but now that I know they exist, I'll stop by next time I want soup dumplings. 1/2 Star.

    Mango fruit tea! So delicious! I love anything Mango and Peach!

    I'm doing an update since the last review. Nothing bad, just some observation. The food is always good here except how the salt and pepper shrimp is prepared. I've noticed last time I was here back in July, shrimp were fried with batter like Long John Silver, so I pointed out to the server(My favorite dish is salt and pepper shrimp)that shrimp should be fried light and crispy and not like this with thick batter. She agreed. When I came here tonight, shrimp were fried the same as back in July. I love the vegetables they cook with the shrimp(onions, green onions, cilantro, shredded carrots and fresh jalapeños). I love eating them with steamed rice. I didn't complain, but maybe next time, I'm gonna order the vegetables only and have them charge me for whatever. My server was very nice and attentive. She even gave me extra mango tea the second time, bc she said she made too much. Btw, their fruit tea is absolutely delicious. I've only tried their mango tea, but they have other fruit tea flavors as well. I got there after shopping at Krogers and it was after 8pm, but there were several customers there and lively ambiance. This is one of my go to Chinese places to eat!!!

    This restaurant is AMAZING. This time around, I got the biang biang noodles, salt and pepper tofu, and green beans. Everything was so delicious! I've also had the steamed veggie dumplings which I highly recommend as well. I also tried out the chocolate bao for dessert since I've been eyeing it on the menu and it was the perfect treat for my sweet tooth.

    This is my first time at Chef Sun's Noodle and Dumplings, and if I lived closer, I would be here once a week. I got their fried veggie dumplings, and they were amazing, so flavorful and packed with veggies, and even though they were fried, they still had a yummy consistency. For my entree, I got the salt and pepper fish, the veggies were seasoned perfectly. The only critique I have is, I wish that the veggies and the fish had the same flavor, because the veggies carried the fish a little bit, but I could tell that the fish was cooked fresh and it was a very good serving size. My husband got the lo mein noodles and enjoyed them thoroughly. My daughter got the steamed beef dumplings and the Chicken fried rice. She enjoyed both of them, but she loved the dumplings. The meat in the middle was so tender and she loved the consistency of the steamed dumpling. 10 out of 10, wish I lived closer. But this will definitely be a treat whenever we are on this side of town.

    Great food and service. The atmosphere is pretty good. I went on a Friday night and there was no wait. We ordered the stir fried green beans, chicken fried rice, colorful dumplings, and soup dumplings. The green beans were perfect, both in taste and texture. The fried rice was quite good, a little heavy on soy sauce, but still very delicious. The soup dumplings were very good, filled with 5-spiced soup and delicious pork. The colorful dumplings were very interesting. I am happy that I ordered and tried them, but I feel that their more normal dumplings may be better. I will certainly be returning.

    We've been here a couple times and it's been good majority of the times. We always get their string beans (m11) and I would say the first few times getting it, it's great. Lots of flavor, string beans were cooked really well, and overall, really tasty vegetable dish. However, the reason for 4 stars is cause of the consistency of the dish. The most recent time we ordered it, it had less flavor and less of the seasoning. The string beans weren't as soft either, which was disappointing. :/ Beef stir fry was very flavorful, on the other hand, and it wasn't spicy. It had a bit of that "ma-la" (numbing and spicy) flavor, but it was tolerable. Overall, I do recommend this place! Servers are great and attentive. I just hope the next time we come, the string beans are back to it's original way. We order it every time we come and it would be a shame if we had to choose another vegetable dish to try out.

    Overall a decent place to go to in the area but not my favorite Asian cuisine spot. My favorite item was the general tso chicken but the only downside is that the pieces of chicken are HUGE. If possible I would request them to by cut into smaller pieces so that it is easier to eat but the flavor was definitely there. I also like that they offer a dumpling sample option on their menu so that I could try a bit of everything before ordering a larger portion. I'd come back if I was in the area but wouldn't make a 30min drive out for it.

    Located at the backside of the shopping strip. Google is incorrect (it does NOT face Custer)

    Dropped in for a quick lunch. Had the garlic green beans and a large bowl of hot and sour soup. Both were delicious and quickly delivered to my table. Delightful staff. Always friendly. The restaurant is located inside of the shopping center. It does not face Kuster as the Google Maps indicate. Drive around and you'll quickly find it. Lots of seating available. The restaurant is clean and well maintained.

    Ready to use a Door Dash gift card,I spun the Yelp Wheel and it landed on Chef Suns Plano Tex location. Piling on copious items from the delectable sounding menu,I couldn't wait for my delivery. I was advised of a 30 minute wait time and to my amazement,I was handed my Chefs Suns Noodle and Dumpling order Right on time. Noodles, dumplings,schezuan beef,all arrived piping hot and orderly. I was super happy with the way the food was packed. I didn't eat right away so the sack sat on the counter about an hour. To my amazement,opening the sack and removing the items,all were still warm. From the sauteed string beans to the desert balls,all the food was excellent. I just discovered there's a location closer to me which I'll gladly try next time and you too should... Go!

    One of the better spots for delicious food around DFW! I can't wait to be back. Came here on a Friday night and ordered the Biang Biang noodles with beef, the Rainbow Dumplings, and the Shrimp Dry Pot. The dumplings! EVERY. SINGLE. DUMPLING. was spot on. The noodles had a great chef and had a great balance of flavor. The dry pot wasn't my favorite, but also not bad. Our server offered these delicious pumpkin shaped desserts. I couldn't get over how cute they looked. Honestly can't wait to be back and try more of their dishes.

    I was really excited to try Chef Sun's Dumplings since it's a halal restaurant because my parents eat halal, so we were looking forward to it. Unfortunately, it was a pretty disappointing experience. The service was rude and it honestly felt like they were too tired to serve us. We got the dan dan noodles which had no flavor at all, just cold noodles and beef on the side. The beef soup was bland, and the dumplings were just okay, nothing special. The Chinese beef burritos barely had any beef in them and the taste was meh. The only thing we actually liked was the Singapore noodle, which had a decent flavor. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place, especially with how many better halal spots there are around.

    Update! So went back and had the "Bang Bang" noodles with chicken and OMG! It was truly amazing. You have somewhat recovered but I still won't do the Generals Chicken or sesame chicken again. My partner and I were just there and the sesame chicken lunch special portion was like 5 pieces of chicken.

    My friend and I were craving Peking duck, so we decided to try it out. The reviews were promising,…read moreand I had heard that they carve the duck tableside. We arrived on a Wednesday evening around 7 p.m., and surprisingly, we were the only customers there, considering it was peak dinner time. We also discovered that we needed to pre-order the duck in advance. Luckily, the lady informed us that there was one available for us, but it would take about 30 minutes. We ordered the crispy cucumber salad, xiao long bao, and the dry-fried string beans. The dry-fried string beans were my favorite. The string beans had a delightful crisp texture and a flavorful taste. The cucumber salad was also good, but some parts were a bit soggy. The XLB skin was too thick and chewy, and it didn't taste like the usual soup dumplings, which was disappointing. I was excited for the duck, but I was honestly disappointed when it arrived. The portions were quite small, considering it was a whole duck. It wasn't carved tableside, which was a letdown. Some parts of the duck were dry, and the skin wasn't crispy enough. To add to the disappointment, they charge extra for almost everything. If you want more pancakes or their homemade duck sauce (which tasted like black bean sauce), you'll have to pay an additional $5. Another thing to note is that they are BYOB, so you can bring your own alcohol. However, the menu pictures on Yelp are outdated, and they only offer whole Peking duck, not half orders. Overall, the food was just okay, and I'll probably try a different spot when I'm in the mood for duck again.

We ordered the A-Choy vegetable and it was awful, old and yellow and not cooked well. It's like they didn't sauté it in a hot enough wok so it wasn't crispy. So disappointing this time. Don't get me wrong, the Peking Duck and the soup that comes with it were still pretty good. Thus the second star.

There was no wait to grab a table for lunch for me and my dining partner. The dining area was quite large, and they have two private dining rooms off to the side. The first struggle was they have no hard copy menu, as they request that you scan a QR code to see the menu on your wireless device. Some of us don't embrace technology and that is okay. To make up for the lack of hard copy menus, they offered to let us use their tablets to peruse the menu. The service itself was lackadaisical, although the food came out quickly, and steaming hot (yay!). It took forever to get water refills to the point that I got up and refilled our glasses myself. Also, no condiments on the table, so I also had to grab those. We started out with an order of the scallion pancake, which was tasty and abundant. Then we ordered two of the Chang's dumplings which were out of this world amazing! The dumplings were soft and the spicy sauce they were in was delectable! For our entrees, we ordered Deep Fried Chicken with Roasted Chilis, the Basil Eggplant, Salt and Pepper Shrimp, and an order of their Shrimp Fried Rice. The Deep Fried Chicken with Roasted Chilis arrived, and while the chicken itself was amazing, the plate was mostly roasted chilis and not enough chicken. I chose this dish having seen serveral other tables order, and their dishes were brimming with chicken. Our, not so much. The Basil Eggplant was incredible. The flavor and the crispy outside make this dish great!! The Salt and Pepper Shrimp was a disaster. Most Asian eateries that I have been to, the shrimp are ginormous, with a light batter, and one of my favorites. At Sichuan Folk, the shrimp were heavily battered, extremely greasy, and the shrimp themselves were tiny, evidenced after removing the super thick batter. Do not order this dish. The shrimp fried rice was an extremely enjoyable surprise. The texture of the rice was fantastic, and the amount of shrimp, peas, carrots and egg was generous. Definitely will order this again. The service is what really surpised me the most. We didn't feel welcome, as we had to ask several of the waitstaff for silverware, napkins, and bowls to mix our soy sauce and chili paste. Those Chang's dumplings and the Basil Eggplant, along with the Shrimp Fried Rice are enough to make us want to come back and give it another try, after researching the menu some more.
