    Stewed Chicken with Mushroom
    Serene C.

    This place is great and has a good mix of authentic Chinese dishes and American Chinese as well. The soup dumplings are really good and they are pretty massive! They did break a bit easy but the soup and meat portion inside is super generous and the broth was very rich. I enjoyed the rest of the dishes especially the stewed chicken it tasted very familiar. Overall this is a great place and I look forward to trying more things! Service was pretty wonderful too.

    We came for dinner last week and came in right as they opened. The inside is decorated very authentically and service was very prompt. We ordered a bunch of dishes as they all were priced pretty well and we wanted to try a little of everything. The soup dumplings were great and hot. The sizzling baos were not as good as the dumplings but we still enjoyed them. We also ordered the sweet and sour pork, salt and pepper fish filets, and green beans. They were all very good. Sweet and sour pork was a little dry, though. One of the only issues we encountered was that apps and dumplings came out with everything else at the same time. Would have been nice to enjoy those first before the mains came out.

    String Bean with Eggplant
    Lam B.

    We enjoyed almost everything at China Blue. Surprisingly, we really liked eggplant though we don't usually care for the texture. The eggplant paired well with the string beans. The seasoning on the beef and fish filet were delicious. Beware of their dumplings as they're really big. I thought they were a bit expensive, but after noticing their size, the prices were reasonable. I liked the chive and pork dumplings the best. My least favorite were the vegetable dumpling as they were lacking in filling so tasted too much of oil. The soup dumplings were decent.

    Stopped by for dinner and wait was about 10 minutes. Menu is extensive with lots to choose from. We ordered the stir fried green beans, spicy fish fillet, and beef bone noodle soup with white rice and everything was absolutely delicious. The fish fillet was honestly one of the best I've ever had, so flavorful and tender. The green beans were perfectly crisp and the soup was hearty and comforting. The service was quick and the staff was friendly. The restaurant is clean and nicely decorated, which made the experience even better. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes.

    China Blue is located in a super convenient, busy plaza where you can find everything from groceries to bubble tea to salons. There's always plenty of easy parking, which makes it a stress-free place to stop by for lunch or dinner. The food here is consistently amazing -- fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I've tried several dishes on the menu, and everything has been great, but the Guo Bao Pork is hands-down my favorite. Crispy on the outside, tender inside, and the sauce is just perfect. The service is also top-notch. The staff is welcoming, attentive, and always happy to offer recommendations if you're not sure what to try. Insider tip: If you plan to visit regularly (which you probably will after trying it once), be sure to purchase one of their gift cards -- they offer a huge discount, and it's such a good deal that it pays for itself quickly. Highly recommend this place whether you're dining in with friends, grabbing takeout, or celebrating a special occasion. You won't be disappointed!

    Found on tik tok! This place is so yummy! We started off the meal with string beans in chili oil and the fried cheese wontons. Our only complaint is that the string beans weren't warm. The orange chicken was freshly made and delicious! We also really enjoyed the spicy pork soup dumplings. Overall we enjoyed the meal and would absolutely return!

    China Blue has become a favorite dinner spot for my friends and I! Every time we go we always order the Fried Cream Cheese Wontons. It is the perfect start to any dish you choose to order. The portions sizes are generous and is perfect for sharing with a group if you want to have dinner family style! The servers are very nice and will get your food out to you quickly!

    came here with my family when visiting dallas and everything was so yummy! the food was nothing special but a great comfort meal we had great service and the interior was very warming!

    Broccoli Beef
    Yu-kwong C.

    We had a great meal here at this restaurant in an area where many wonderful Chinese restaurants converge. We ordered the beef with broccoli, spicy fish fillet, and steamed pork buns. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and the portion was generous. The beef was tender and well-seasoned, plus crisp broccoli and onions. The fish fillet dish was delicious, tender fish in a spicy, rich savory broth with plenty of chili peppers. The pork buns were soft and fluffy, stuffed with juicy, delicious minced pork. Service was friendly and attentive (don't forget this is a Chinese restaurant :) The interior has a beautiful Chinese decor, with rustic wooden furniture and paper lanterns hanging from the ceiling. If you're into some Chinese food like me, come here and give it a try.

    Stir fried green beans
    Sarah N.

    We felt like the food was a bit salty and some dishes we ordered, seemed to have changed maybe for that day or they got a new chef, like the garlic shrimp. Ours was battered and fried but pictures online and our family had them just whole and non battered another visit. We did really enjoy the xiao long bao and cucumber salad though. Service was a bit spotty, at times we were checked on a lot and other times it was hard to find our server. The restaurant is beautiful inside which is super surprising, you wouldn't know by looking at the outside however where we sat in the corner of the front windows, there was a slight mildew smell.

    This place has a nice ambience and is a great place to eat with family! We got the dandan noodles, eggplant with minced pork, salt and pepper fish, flat noodles with beef, some sort of spicy beef dish, and their pork buns. Everything was so good, especially the eggplant and the fish. I think this has become one of my new favorite Chinese places in Plano.

    8 Xiaolong Bao-I thought these were delicious. However, the rest of my family did not like.
    Stephanie O.

    The food was delicious. There were a few things we enjoyed more than others. And most of the dishes were as authentic as can be in America. We had a very kind server who helped us choose our meal. She gave us free tastings of wine and complementary hot and sour soup. The ambience is very quaint and styled and an upper class Chinese restaurant We got the cucumber salad, the spicy wonton, sizzling, beef, hot and sour soup, green beans, soup, dumplings, and shrimp fried rice. Out of everything I just mentioned I thought the cucumber salad was spectacular, the hot and sour soup was worth its weight and the green beans were absolutely delicious. The other items I mentioned were good, but not something I think I would crave or go back to. We got a bottle of plum wine And it was absolutely divine.

    Cucumber Salad
    Stephanie H.

    Great spot for fresh and tasty dumplings. This place says dumplings for a reason all of them were good. Also the general tso chicken was some of the best I've had. The plum wine was amazing! Fast and efficient service

This place is absolutely made for a group outing, and we're already planning to come back with a group to take full advantage. The food was a delight. The Singapore noodles had this wonderful curry flavor that I absolutely loved, and the combo fried rice was just as satisfying. We also ordered the Peking duck (P1 on the menu). It was good, though not quite as flavorful on its own as we'd hoped. That said, once you load it up with the hoisin, cucumber, and spring onions, it all comes together beautifully. The bao buns that came with it were soft and delicious, honestly a highlight. We also sipped on hot jasmine tea throughout, which was the perfect, refreshing complement to the whole meal. A solid spot with great vibes, tasty dishes, and room to grow on us even more with a return visit.

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.

But regardless, we didn't have enough skin so asked if we can get 2 more skins, even if we had to pay for them. The waitress barked at us that it comes in 10-pks and that she can't get us just 2 pieces. Fine, but there's no need to be annoyed and roll your eyes at us. The service was much to be desired. 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.

We asked our waitress to do something and the wait staff ignored our request to intervene on our behalf for calmer demeanor from them. Finally , someone from my table had to address this personally and confronted the loud group and asked if they could tone down their enthusiasm so we, and other patrons, could enjoy our evening at the restaurant. They only cut the noise for a few minutes and started again with the loud voices and over boisterous laughter . We were greatly disappointed with the staff and the overall establishment. We normally have a nice dinner with the attentive wait staff and enjoy our menu choices. Because our concerns were not addressed, we don't feel respected and wonder if we will dine again here.
