The gentleman that took care of us was exceptionally. The service was on point. The chili crisp oil form my food wow it had a kick. It was so good. We didn't order anything bad. All the food was tasty. My favorite the fried shrimp balls. Other than adding a little drop of soy sauce to my miso soup. It was all great food. We were the first ones in so we had the best time and best service. read more

Called ahead and was told they offered weekday dim sum. The menu was only about five items and priced about double typical dim sum. If you know anything about dim sum, part of the draw is the price for the food. We ordered five dumplings but received four and when we asked why, we were told they were "made bigger, so you only get four". They were actually smaller, not bigger, so that clearly was not true (we frequent dim sum restaurants so we know the difference) and we were still charged full price. We complained, but the manager did nothing. Nice view, but overpriced and disappointing service. Not worth it. Unless you want to pay double price dim sum and get less than what their menu says you get. In this case the place is fine. read more

Got this the other day and it was so good! Service was awesome also. I don't know the sweet lady's name at the counter, but she deserves a raise. Virginia was the best Virginia that I never meet before. She has a friendly smile. You must request her when you go to Chinatown for the fantastic service from Virginia. read more

Very mediocre to frankly bad. Got the lunch box C for $21 and nothing was great on it. Happy family tasted bad, sushi roll was ok, egg roll and fried rice like cheap Chinese fast food. Even the jasmine tea flavor was subpar. Wife hated her fried.rixe. We love Asian food. Avoid this one... It used to be good a long time ago. read more

3.5 My husband and I decided to meet up with some friends for lunch. They suggested Chinatown. We hadn't been there in years so we thought we'd give it a try. We drove up and parked on the side. The entrance is on the side of the building. When entering the building there is a sign that says you go downstairs for Dim Sum. The bathrooms are also downstairs. We headed upstairs and were greeted by a nice hostess. We saw our friends already seated and headed over to their table. There was plenty of seating in this restaurant. It was decorated with lots of red, many wine bottles and lots of windows. It was a large room and we were the only customers there for a while. Our waitress gave us some menus and then asked us what we wanted to drink. We ordered waters and she brought them to us quickly. We were not ready to order so she gave us some time to look at the menu. I decided to try a Shanghai Egg roll to start and the Sweet and Sour Chicken plus cashews for my main dish. My husband ordered the Chef Special Beef. The waitress was good as she took care of us the entire time. Making sure we had water and checking to see if we needed refills. The Shanghai Egg roll was okay. It was crispy on the exterior and has tiny pieces of pork in it. I really couldn't taste the pork but the egg roll in general was okay. We were given two types of dipping sauces for our egg rolls. The sweet and sour sauce and the mustard. I ate the majority of my egg roll with sweet and sour as I like the sweet flavor. The mustard sauce was very strong and I couldn't eat very much of it. The sweet and sour chicken was tasty. The chicken was soft and even though it had a fried exterior it wasn't crispy at all. It had plenty of sweet and sour sauce almost too much. It looked like the cashews were a bit overcooked though. It came mixed with pineapple, white onion, and green bell peppers but I honestly didn't taste much of that stuff. I would have loved a more even amount of ingredients but it was mostly fried chicken with lots of sweet and sour sauce. My husband's chef special beef came with crunchy beef, orange peel, and a spicy brown sauce. I tried it and the flavor was really good. The combination of ingredients was flavorful. Overall it was an okay lunch. The restaurant was bright, the service was decent, and the food was okay. read more

Haven't been back to this restaurant in a long time and found myself in the neighborhood at lunchtime so decided to give it a try. Ordered the Kung Pao Beef. It was as good as I remember it. The hot and sour sauce was just ok so was the egg roll. Beef was tender and veggies fresh and crunchy. Service was fast and friendly. Prices are reasonable. The ambiance is nice and inviting. read more

Such an absolute bummer. My family has been coming to Chinatown for over 20 years and after our traditional Christmas Eve dinner we'll never be back. Absolutely insulting service, not because they were understaffed and in the weeds but because we were a family of five and only my wife was drinking while we were sandwiched between two tables that were going hard on the bottle service. They curtly took our order, dropped the food and we were never checked on again while our table filled with plates and our drinks needed refills (We had to flag someone down for chopsticks because they were so fast leaving after dropping the food). Then when they finally dropped our check, after we sat there and watched them ignore our table numerous times and considering just going straight to the front so we could leave, we went to settle up and I was entering our tip my son noticed that they had already autograted our check. For a family of five. No mention of this and we almost doubled tipped for absolute trash service. It seemed underhanded and added more insult to injury after such a mediocre experience. We used to think your rude waiters were novel and funny when the food and ambiance were fantastic but when the food quality drops, we all agreed the food was just ok, and we're treated poorly maybe we should have been paying more attention. It was a nice run Chinatown - my family has always loved you through the years, from the amazing Dim-Sum Sundays (pre-Covid) to our annual Christmas Eve dinner, but that was it. So long and goodbye. read more

The food is always served fresh and delicious and the staff is hospitable and efficient. This quality upstairs restaurant is a favorite hidden treasure for quiet dining or family celebration. The lower level is also nice for a drink and relaxing awhile. Come and experience for yourself! read more

Came here during happy hour and I must say that I love a deal. From draft beers to bites to eat, it gives you a chance to try out a little of this and that that you normally wouldn't try such as their sushi rolls. So let me start off by saying take a moment and check in as they give you a free egg roll for doing so and who doesn't love a perk?). The guy serving us was working the bar as well as the tables in the bar. For what it's worth he was holding it down well. He was attentive and quick to answer any questions. Food came out hot and the serving size was large enough that we could of shared. Will definitely come back. read more

It was okay. The entrance is hard to find (it is on the side of the building, up the shorter stairs), and it is definitely not ADA compliant anywhere I could see. It is a very quiet restaurant... no music, and with very few patrons, not much in the way of background noise. The servers were nice enough. The food was fine. But it was BLAND. We got the hot and sour soup (all sour, no hot), egg drop soup (velvety and eggy, but nothing else to it), a pork egg roll (served with that sugary American sauce and hot mustard, very little pork), volcano shrimp (supposed to be spicy, but it was just that red sauce with some hair-fine shelters of red peppers- bland), and the seafood delight (bland and creamy). Oh, and a pot of green tea. Overall, it was fine. Even when we got chili paste, it was just kinda smoky and not spicy. It was fine though. read more

I've only had egg rolls from here. They are the best I've ever had! I have seen the dining area and the rest of the menu. It's a class act! The food looks a bit pricey, but if it's as good as their egg rolls, go. It's really is a step up from your regular Chinese restaurant. It kinda makes you feel underdressed. It's pretty far for me to go, but while I'm in the area, I gotta stop. I only hit the 3 star because I haven't had the main fare. I'm guessing it will change up when I go for a "real meal". read more

This place is an oldie and a classy goodie. The place is clean, sterile, and takes appropriate precautions for cleanliness. I am pleased with the staff efforts to make the experience feel safe. Peking Duck 3 ways is absolutely amazing. Now keep in mind, there are not many places in Austin that do this, so this adds extra points to this restaurant fir even attempting. In addition, they serve the courses in the correct order (we tested them). The decor is contemporary yet tradition and has wonderful views ***mental note, the duck bone soup is always served last traditionally*** The first course was the amazing skin and under meat of the duck with scallions and crepes or buns. Succulent meat of duck, crispy skin. The fine scallion straws really bring out the flavor. The second course of stir fry was okay, it was simplistic and a traditional stir fry. It was a stir fry. Good. But nothing super unique about it. The DUCK BONE soup is awesome. That flavor is simply amazing and will make you crave for more. There are no bad with the Peking suck meal. My only main critique is do not ever get it as take out, the soup was more hot and sour tasting. The meat from the stodgy was dry and hard. Overall this was an amazing experience with my family. I would also like to assert that this restaurant would normally be a 3 star however the staff is so sweet and accommodating that it was difficult to not give it a 4. read more

Upscale American Chinese Food - with a ton of sushi offerings as well. I am never happy to have sushi on the same menu with American Chinese. But I have learned to tolerate it. The sushi at the Westlake Hills location of Chinatown is actually pretty good. * * * The American Chinese offerings are just super. You are looking at a P.F. Chang's concept of excellent execution on dishes you have seen a million times before. (I am very big on P. F. Chang's.) The room is not quite as nice as P. F. Changs. But its nice enough. The kitchen is absolutely on a level with P. F. Chang's. This visit had me on a boneless BBQ Pork appetizer served in a lettuce cup. ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY ADDICTIVE. Better than the Chinese spareribs of my youth. (Chinese spareribs have really really gone downhill in recent years.) I marveled at each bite. My main was fried rice with everything in the house tossed in. I have had more savory fried rice as far as the fried rice itself. But the overall dish was outstanding. The serving was positively enormous. There were vast amounts of protein in the rice. The chicken and shrimp pieces were enormous and utterly packed with flavor. Better yet, there were a lot of them. This was total comfort food. I don't mind being comforted. I can work with that. * * * No one gets cutting edge gourmet points for eating American Chinese at Chinatown North. You aren't getting pig tails, kidneys and sea urchins in Mandarin squid ink. But sometimes food doesn't have to be fancy. It just has to be good. You pay a little more at Chinatown North than you would pay at the neighborhood takeout joint. But what you get is well worth while. read more

This is a family favorite, but it's not at this restaurant. Bland bland bland. No asian spices. Not even the standard receipe. Mongolian we've had doesn't have carrots, where are the hot dried chilis and green onions?? Sweet/salty sauce. Fried rice, where's the egg?? Chicken and cashews, where's the ginger, spices. To be fair we've included a very good recipe for Mongolian beef. Maybe you should try it. https://thewoksoflife.com/mongolian-beef-recipe/ read more

I really hate to leave a bad review for any place, but I just spent $55 on food that tasted worse than Panda Express I got the Westlake Beef which...was just broccoli & beef. It matched the menu description but I thought it would have a different taste. That aside, the oil my food was fried in definitely hadn't been changed in a week or three. We went at 4 on a weekend and were the only people in the restaurant. There were multiple signs pointing to this being an extremely mid experience, and I wish I had listened to any of them. read more

This is one of our favorite standby places since the food is always consistently good, the service is excellent, and the prices are very reasonable. Today I tried something new, I tried the Singapore noodle bowl which normally comes with shrimp but since I'm allergic they just added more chicken instead. The dish was listed with one pepper hot, but I really didn't feel much of any heat although I did taste the curry and I thought it was just the right amount of seasoning. The lunch special also includes a fried egg roll and soup of your choice, which is always a nice extra for any type of lunch menu. read more

This restaurant is so good it will make you want to go again and again and again. Good food runs in this family's blood. Whether it's Chinese, Japanese, or sushi you will not be disappointed. The restaurant itself has a great atmosphere for date night or family night. Or if you need take some business associates out this restaurant will impress. I promise it won't let you down. They also have a great bar with some wonderful exotic cocktails. My fav is the Mexican martini.. Their staff have been there for long time and give excellent service. They also own the restaurant STREET downstairs which has great sushi and the best Dim Sum in Austin. Ronald Cheng and his family are long time Austinites who have extensive Restaurant experience. They treat you like they would want to be treated so go EAT & DRINK at CHINATOWN & STREET you will be happy you did. read more

Best American-style Chinese food in Austin. Best crab cheese (aka crab puff, wonton, etc) hot and sour soup, Singapore noodles, ma po tofu...c'mon! There's no comparison. You would expect this major capitol city to have tons o' delicious Chinese take-out... not so! Sorry, I don't make the rules but this is THE place to trust for classic American Chinese in the city. That being said, you must not miss Din Ho, which is an excellent, more traditionally Chinese restaurant in the nearby neighborhood, offering fantastic hotpot and Chinese bbq. Be a pleasure genius and eat @ both places regularly. read more

I stopped in on Wednesday night since my coworker let me know about the benefit going on at all three Chinatown locations to help support Hurricane Harvey relief. They also were accepting donations at the restaurant. That is awesome that this restaurant is giving back to the community. I was very happy to see that this place was packed with people who wanted support the Rockport Relief Fund. Be sure to go in using the door on the side near the parking lot. I made the mistake of going into Street Japanese restaurant. It's fine if you make that mistake since you can just go up the stairs to the right. We were seated quickly. We sat near a window. Woohoo! I ordered from the set dinner menu and selected my appetizer, soup and entree. I went with the imperial roll, egg drop soup and Hunan Beef. All were very good. The egg roll was cooked really nicely. Not soggy and had the right amount of crisp. Woohoo! The Hunan Beef had good flavor. I can't wait to come back to eat something else. Especially knowing that the restaurant gives back to the community and helps others in need. Why haven't I been here sooner?! I want to try their dim sum next. read more

Stopped in for lunch just before Christmas - didn't realize I entered the sports bar area until other people came through taking a "shortcut" to the restaurant after I had already sat and placed my order...oops. I was the only customer, and there was a funky smell to the place so I was nervous at first. But the waiter was very friendly and attentive and I ate some of the best chicken pad thai I have ever had. I could easily have taken half of it home since the portion was generous, but I couldn't help myself and ate the whole thing! The chicken was tender, the sauce flavorful, noodles were perfectly cooked - just excellent. Lunch with tip was about $18 - somewhat pricy, but worth it. read more

I ate here for a friend's birthday a few weeks ago. Two of my friends ordered the sushi, and it was pretty good. I ordered the Thai Pepper Ginger Chicken, and it was very bland. It tasted like boiled chicken in oyster sauce with a few dried red peppers thrown on top. It was so gross I barely ate any. I can't believe I paid $19 for something so unpleasant. If you eat here, avoid the Chinese entrees. read more

Really delicious food! We had Sushi snd Raman soup, and it was all very tasty Service was very good as well

My family loves getting dim sum, and this place is one of our favorites. There's usually little to no wait, and the selection is excellent. While they may have fewer carts than other spots, the food quality is consistently high. We especially enjoy the dumpling cart, where they crisp up the dumplings on a grill at your table. read more

This restaurant takes me back in time to the big, over-the-top, kitschy American Chinese restaurants of my youth. That's the main thing it has going for it! Well, that and the booze. The food is classic American Chinese tasty, but not amazing. The service is decent, but a little slow and aloof. But the wine selection is good, and the full bar makes any basic cocktail -- including a good, strong dirty martini. It's the kind of place that cheugy GenX/Millennials can get together at for a double date, kick back in contented unhipness, and have a raucous good time. read more

What's better than dim sum for Sunday during brunch time. We got there and was seated immediately to the back room of the restaurant. The waiter came shortly after and take out drink order. First cart came through but it was all sweets, so we decided to skip it. Next cart came we got some plates off of there. Chicken feet was soft and tender, with a few slices of jalapeño which create a little kick to it. The Pe King duck was nicely prepared with the bun and sauce. The duck was very juicy and tender and the bun was very soft. The shrimp dumplings was a bit cold and it harden up just a bit so the taste wasn't so great. The sauté spinach with sauce was good. The wonton soup didn't taste too good, the wonton was a bit hard and the soup wasn't that hot. Other carts didn't come out way so we didn't know what else was available. Maybe next time if we get sitter at the main dinning room we can get a better selection of what's being served. read more
