    The service was amazing! The waiter was friendly and helpful. The bao was warm, fluffy and slightly sweet with delicious filling. Custard tarts were just the right sweetness and had a flakey light crust.The ambiance was lovely, with wooden screens and Asian flare. This one would also be a great family or group experience.

    Came here for dinner with my husband since we were in the area. I love how dimly lit it was inside. It was very spacious too. It was only a few tables so they seated everyone in the same area, closer to the kitchen. They had so many yummy options to choose from. Since I was battling allergies I went with the spicy beef noodle soup. My husband got the Taiwan braised beef noodle soup, which our server said was an excellent choice because it is made with its own special broth. We got the salt & pepper fried chicken as an appetizer. It was ok, I think it could have used more seasoning/flavor but maybe it was my stuffiness. The food comes out super quick. I do think the meat in the soup could have been a little more tender. But it was still good. The fresh ingredients made it very tasty. I would go back to try different dumplings and other entrees.

    I really wanted to like this place especially since they focus on dimsum and noodles but the food isn't good at all. They were either too salty or too bland. The dumplings on the wonton soup were so tiny and it was just not good. I really wish the food improves but since they're in a chain, I'm guessing it's based on recipes. The restaurant itself is gorgeous! The space was huge and it was really pretty. Service was good as well, the servers were nice and accomodating. I'm giving the stars to them! Unfortunately, the food just does not hit the mark especially for the price point.

    A great find, especially since they're open on Mondays and start serving an hour earlier than most dim sum spots in Virginia Beach. The interior is new, spacious, and very clean but a bit dimmed. While they don't use traditional push carts, the service is quick. The prices are fair, though portions are on the smaller side. The shrimp rice noodle crepe were smaller than I'm used to. We were disappointed they were out of the beef rice noodle crepe but the rest of the food was good. The chicken feet had a spicy kick! The leek dumplings could have been crispier. Can't go wrong with ordering more Crystal Shrimp Dumplings.

    Waited for the place to open so was excited to try the place out. Kevin was our waiter and he was super nice. Everything on the menu that we ordered was pretty good. I ordered the noodle with specialty sauce but held back on the spiciness. Not sure if doing that was smart because it seemed like it could use more sauce, but the flavor was really good and a good portion too. We ordered the calamari and it had a seasoned batter that was pretty good. Also had the beef with Napa cabbage and the chicken dumplings. Ordered the Taiwan Braised noodle soup and custard buns. My husband and daughter got the mango refresher while I got the honeydew. They said theirs was more on the sweet side, but I really liked mine. Loved how spacious and modern the place was and looking forward to try more dishes.

    Food is ok, but expensive for what you get. The dim sum does not compare to even other local dim sum establishments. The dumplings and sesame balls were comically small (pictured with hand for scale). I grew up going to dim sum with my family and ordering the dishes by their Chinese names as those restaurants did not have English menus. When I started ordering, the staff did not know the Chinese names of the dishes which is odd considering it has the Chinese name on the menu as well. The restaurant is also very dark. The vibe is cool, but it seems impractical and I would question the cleanliness if it weren't brand new because there were no observable bright lights to see to clean. I have tried it twice now. I will probably not be returning as I cannot justify choosing this over other truly local establishments. It's not objectively bad, it's just not for me.

    Second time here and service was once again great and food was all delicious. Have yet to be disappointed. Place is modern and clean with a ton of space and a lot of parking available.

    I was so excited for to try this place since I wanted to try other dimsum places other than my usuals. I was so disappointed that the food was not great. We ordered Spicy noodles w beef, the noodles got soggy so fast and the only food that was not salty. The taiwanese spicy noodles soup was same. The dimsum we got were chix feet was okay but not tender, steamed tripe was so SALTY that I have to add the vinegar on the table but made the taste bad, the spareribs was okay but salty, the shrimp noodles doesn't have the chewy texture on the noodles, siomai was not good either, and lastly the wanton soup the wanton has a very little meat inside. The service was fast and the server was nice. The restaurant was big and looks clean. I was not impressed with the food at all.

    We tried iNoodle for the first time today. We got it togo and it was ready quickly. The restaurant was clean and spacious. The togo packaging of their food is very nice. While the portions were decent, it still seemed expensive for what you get. Food was okay..didn't taste any honey in the honey shrimp..not sweet at all.. will try again after they've been open a little longer

    Spicy wonton soup

    Not what I expected. Made it in the new inoodle in Va. Beach and did not expect it to be this nice. The restaurant is very roomy and very comfortable. I was expecting more of a different variety. The green beans were crisp and flavorful . The spcey wonton were delicious and the wonton soup was spectacular! My wife had crispy chicken with soup and loved it. The breading on the chicken was perfect. I highly recommend stopping in at least once.

    Run, don't walk to the best new dim sum spot in the Virginia Beach/Norfolk area. The place is new with a clean, modern design. The dim sum is prepared by individual order, so nothing is reheated or cold. The flavors are authentic, the service is great and I can't wait to go back!

I called earlier in the day to see if we should make reservations, but was told they wouldn't be busy. Well, we got there and while they had plenty of tables at 6:30PM, but 7PM that place was completely packed! They had lots of carry-out orders happening too, which all made the kitchen a little slow. We ordered many dishes to share and all started coming out one after another over the next hour until the beef & broccoli was the last dish. Again, I attribute the slowness of the kitchen to their being so busy. At least all the food that came out was very fresh, tasty, and piping hot. Some interesting items that were quite good were their potatoes and green peppers. This dish is something I've never seen before but was pretty good! It features long julienned potatoes that they clearly soak in water before wok'ing with the peppers - that was all that was in the dish, but it was still tasty. Their Fish in Chili Oil & Bean Sprouts was really tasty and fresh! The fish is flounder. Their spicy wontons in chili oil were very popular with our group too. Service here was friendly too and helpful. Like I said, we tried many items, so many more than I just outlined and all were nice. I'd definitely return for a slightly more elevated Chinese menu from what you get at the typical Chinese-American joints.

My family and I (5 people) came in to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday dinner and there was nobody but us in the restaurant. The first thing I noticed was the server. He was dressed in jeans, hooded sweatshirt, a beanie and had a toothpick in his mouth. A bit out of the ordinary but to each their own for proper attire in what I would deem a upscale-ish restaurant. The real issue was him taking our order, seemed rushed. As we were deliberating and figuring out what we wanted. My girlfriend was talking about the scallion bubble pancakes. He came over and said, "I overheard you said the scallion pancakes, did you want to put in that order?" My girlfriend said no, she wanted everything to come out all at once. He said ok and then we walked off. Next thing we know, the pancakes came out WAY ahead of everything else we ordered. By like 15 minutes at least. When my girlfriend said something about it, the waiter said, he said outright " I never heard her say not to order them, she never said anything, and they are out right now". No apology, no I'll go ahead and fix that...nothing. When we we on the way out, we talked to the owner about the experience and the only thing he mentioned was that, the server was new and it's hard to find good employees because they revolve so quickly. Which wasn't really an answer at all. It was definitely a 180 degree turn from the first experience we had here which was 5 stars all around. I think given the experience, we unfortunately won't be coming back

The older lady welcomed and greeted us, and walked us to our table. She was a very enthusiastic lady and was very happy to have us dine at her restaurant. I loved her energy!

As I looked around the restaurant, every guest seemed to enjoy their food. Overall, we had a great dining experience and I think most of it was because of the lady's energy. The food was delicious.

We ordered sweet and sour chicken, beef and broccoli, chicken fried rice, and beef lo mein. The beef lo mein noodles were broken into small pieces instead leaving them as long noodles and there were more vegetables than there were noodles. The beef in the beef broccoli had an unusual taste like it had been sitting out for too long and the broccoli and bamboo shoots had a really weird taste that I can't even explain; we didn't finish it. The sweet and sour sauce had a slight flavor akin to some kind of cleaning agent; we just ate the chicken without the sauce. The chicken fried rice was the best out of all of it. They should get rid of the piano player and just play music, even traditional Chinese music, over the speakers. The internal appearance of the place made us think the food and ambience would be somewhat traditional, but it wasn't even close. China Ocean off of Holland has far better Chinese food than Imperial Palace. I will not recommend imperial palace nor returning to eat there. The staff/service was great, especially our waitress Sue.
