It was admittedly pretty good and every entree comes with a mini-box of appropriately sized cooked rice. The lo mein was the biggest disappointment. It had no flavor honestly and just tasted like a plain noodle. It's usually one of my favorite parts, but this was one I would stay away from. The sweet and sour chicken was pretty good. It's separated and you can either mix them together or dip the chicken in the sauce. I felt it was cooked/fried very well and I enjoyed it. Overall, mediocre chinese takeout.

You cook everything yourself in the broth. It's all you can eat and very tasty (provided you have chosen well for your broth and items!) On the downside: we were confused about what we were supposed to do for drinks, it seemed like the only option was bottled water and some soda cans. The bathroom floor was sticky. Not all the buffet items had appropriate tongs and spoons, so cross contamination could easily happen with people using tongs for multiple items. They made a mistake and brought one of us the wrong broth but corrected once we pointed it out. If I lived in the area I would definitely check this place out again though.

We ordered the chicken lo mein (without vegetables for my nephew), diced dry spicy chicken, xiao long bao (XLB), pan-fried Sheng Jian Bao, chicken feet, crystal shrimp dumplings, and egg tarts. The chicken lo mein was perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of salt and flavor. The diced dry spicy chicken came with a side of rice, which balanced the bold seasoning nicely. The chicken was crispy on the outside while remaining juicy on the inside, and the spice level was around a 5/10, which is enough to give it a satisfying kick without being overwhelming. The XLB wasn't served with julienned ginger, as some restaurants do, but the broth inside the dumplings had a subtle ginger flavor that was a pleasant surprise. The dumplings were well-seasoned and flavorful enough that they didn't even need soy sauce. The pan-fried Sheng Jian Bao (five dumplings per order) was slightly less authentic than I expected. While the flavor was spot on, the filling lacked any soup, and both the top and bottom of the bao were crispy (typically just the bottom of the dumpling is pan-seared). They ended up tasting more like well-made pan-fried dumplings than traditional Sheng Jian Baos. The chicken feet came three to an order and were tender, with a savory sauce that had a hint of sweetness. The crystal shrimp dumplings were fresh and delicate, and the egg tarts made for a great way to finish the meal with their flaky crust and creamy custard filling. The service here was excellent. Our server spoke almost perfect English, which isn't always expected at restaurants specializing in authentic dim sum. The food arrived quickly, piping hot, and they accept both cash and credit cards. The restaurant is fairly spacious, though it doesn't have the large banquet-style atmosphere you might associate with some traditional Chinese restaurants. Overall, this was an excellent dim sum experience, and I will definitely come back the next time I'm in Philadelphia.

I cannot consistently stress enough how consistently consistent the food and take-out service at this restaurant are.

They never add enough vinegar though so I always add rice vinegar at home, it's fine. What really prompted me to leave this review is that they have become unreasonably cheap and lazy. They don't use Chinese vegetables anymore, it's just broccoli, thick hunks of carrots, onion and celery. There's no bok choy, water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, shiitake, or wood ear mushrooms. Unless you order a dish that specifically mentions one of those vegetables you won't get them. Occasionally if I'm lucky, I might find 2 snow peas and 2 small pieces of baby corn but it's rare. Don't order anything other than the most common items either or you will be disappointed. The wonton soup broth is so watered down it tastes like colored salt water, theres never any scallions in it or in any of their dishes. I used to Love this place, in fact we've been going there off and on for over 20 years but the consistency has just gotten so bad that I'm not sure I'll be going back, not even for my beloved Hot and Sour soup. Also, check your bag before you leave we've had rice and dumpling sauce missing on a few occasions, which is frustrating when you get home, but mistakes happen, just check your bag.
