    lunch, worth it
    Joe H.

    Open recently and their menu looked amazing so I had to give it a try. Menu was written in Mandarin with English subtitles Wide variety of food; Chinese, Korean, Korean BBQ, Ramen, Authentic Chinese including hotpot etc. II ordered rice noodles with curry flavor and shrimp and chicken. My friend ordered a beef ramen dish. I thought the noodles with curry/chicken/shrimp were amazing- I haven't had food that good since I dined at a 5 star hotel. My friend enjoyed her Ramen. Can't give it 5 stars because the service wasn't that great- even considering the labor shortage as I always do now, I had to get up 3 times (1. To get the fork I had already asked for, I'm not so good with those chopsticks) 2. to get the check so that we could back to work and 3. To get the container I had already asked for. The food however makes it worth going back.

    Water spinach with fermented bean curd
    Christine C.

    Authentic Szechuan (if you love flavorful spicy foods, come here!), huge portions. This is my go to Chinese restaurant since it is so close to most of the schools in the area (5-10 minute walking distance) and one that I recommend to friends who want restaurant recommendations. Placed an order online via their website, then went in person for pickup. 1. Water spinach w. fermented bean curd: One of my favorite dishes I usually have back home. Flavor was amazing, but the water spinach was a little tough & not the freshest. Cannot blame Jiang Hu though, because water spinach is literally IMPOSSIBLE to find upstate and it was likely imported from the downstate area. 2. Xinjiang Dapan Chicken: My favorite!! Came in a HUGE aluminum foil take out container; could have easily fed 4-5 people. My roommate & I had this over the course of 3 days. The flavor of the soup is out of this world - spicy, savory, and fills you up. Perfect for a cold, rainy, or snowy day. The soup came with a large portion owide knife-cut noodles, which was cooked al dente and soaked up all the delicious soup. I would 100% recommend ordering this dish if you come here.

    05.14.2023 @5:45pm, table for 6. Quite day. Seated once walk in. Literally everything we want orders was out of stock due to the place is closing for the seasons and today was the last day opening. One server and she was able to handle our table in a courtesy speed as there were only one other table that was there already eating. Food wise to me is not authentic as a Taiwanese dishes.

    Beef and shrimp lo mein.
    Angela D.

    By far the best noodles I've consumed. These Lo Mein Noodles were cooked to order. The flavor was savory and well balanced and the noodles were cooked perfectly, not bloated or salty. This is definitely a hidden gem. Thought that I'd save some for tomorrow but I inhaled it. I'm thinking of ordering it again and taking it home. Sooooooooo yummy!

Yaki man doo - beef 10/10 Cooked perfectly. Light and crispy and the beef inside was so flavorful and delicious. Probably one of the best dumplings I've ever had! Highly recommend.

It's like a sweet and spicy, but a little mild/medium spice level. Really good! I did try a rice cake, but not a fan of the gummy texture. The spice level was definitely hot too. Too spicy for me!

It comes to your table sizzling, then you dress it with as much gochujang pepper/sesame oil sauce as you like (it traditionally comes with a bottle of sauce so you can add to yoir taste), and mix it all up. The hot pot makes the bottom of the rice nice and crispy. I get mine with tofu instead of beef and the portion is very generous. It comes with 3 banchan (Korean small side dishes) and miso soup. My only wish/suggestion for improvement is that they should offer more variety in their banchan. Service is fast but I'm usually here outside peak hours. Ambiance is simple but always clean. My dinner bill with a beer and a hot tea came to $26 which is a good value imo (my leftover filled a to-go container).

She was also so sweet to write down everything on a sticky note that had anything I'm allergic to which is always appreciated. We did both Kpot and BBQ and glad we got to do both. I really enjoy the buffet/all you can eat style since you're in total control of how much or how little you choose, especially when trying something new. I did try a lot of new things while here and I think it's the perfect way to do it! I made a ramen bowl and also grilled a lot of different meats - our favorite was the spicy pork belly! We got up for seconds, thirds, and fourths bc it was so good!! There is also a section of creating your own sauce which was fun too! You could definitely make a variety of different sauce creations, maybe some sweet, some spicy, some more or less flavorful, there are no limits! They also had a guide above the sauce line to help you follow the ingredients if you're looking for some inspiration. I would definitely come back again! I wish they had more dessert options.

    I came here on a Wednesday night and it seemed to get busy rather quickly after I arrived. The…read morerestaurant is very small (about 4 tables that can seat up to 4) but they do have their own parking lot which is nice. **Don't quote me cause I didn't ask or see but I don't think they have high chairs so my toddler just had to sit on the chair which wasn't a problem for us but if you have a little one it might be better to order take out instead. ** Service was friendly and fast. We ordered the veggie pancake, yukgaejang and jjajangmyeon. The veggie pancake was filling for 2 people and it was nice and crispy. The yukgaejang was fine, I do wish it was slightly more flavorful, I felt it was SLIGHTLY under seasoned but the meat was very tender. As for the jjajangmyeon, my husband enjoyed it and said the flavor was nice but the texture could've been better. The banchan was great. Overall, I enjoyed my meal and it was good, not as good as NYC but comparable to the other Korean restaurants here. I would come back again.

Personally, I would only reorder the seafood pancake. --- A road trip was planned around dining at Chorong House since I was so excited for Korean pancakes. The building has a small side lot which is perfect for ~ 7 cars. The interior is smaller, with ~ 5 tables. There are restrooms for each gender, though slim. We ordered the (1) beef kimbob, (2) dukboki (Korean spicy and sweet rice cakes), and (3) Korean-style seafood pancake. 1. The beef kimbob (10 pieces) was a little bit of a letdown since only 4 pieces had any substantial beef. 4 didn't have any beef, and the other 2 had tiny slivers (and were only rice and lettuce). A little dry, I wish the filling was pickled or had more flavor. 2. The dukboki was a small serving, and had cabbage and onions as well. I wish there were fishcakes with the serving. Overall, it was pretty standard. 3. The korean seafood pancake was big, fluffy, crispy, and stuffed FULL of filling. I was really happy with the pancake, even if it felt a little undercooked. Awesome flavor, good sauce, and large size. We took our leftovers home. It was by far my favorite thing. The restaurant was very obviously run by a small duo team. Wait time of getting food was normal, but the wait time of getting the check was long if you missed the "window" when they were in the front of house and went to the back to start cooking the new table's meal. Overall, a chill, no-frills dining experience if you're in the Syracuse area. I'd avoid the kimbob.

    Takeout review! We ordered the cheese fried korean chicken…read morewings and vegetable tempura for a to-go snack. Service was kind, food was not ready when I arrived but that is fine. Interior is cute, quiet and clean. They have karaoke downstairs. The tempura was good, light and fresh. The fried chicken wings - cheese were disappointing. I have ordered this type of chicken wing from other restaurants in the past and it is always a cheese type of powder the coats it. This was cheese melted on top, not even a sauce or powder,, and that does make a difference for the dish as it had no flavor. I have seen cheese melted on top of spicy wings before but this also was not that. It was disappointing especially for the price ($24.99). Overcooked and dry.

Glad I stayed. Despite its name, the sushi was so-so. Think of this place as a Korean restaurant. Almost all of the patrons were speaking Korean. The beef bibimbop in a stone bowl was great. The stone bowl was unusual in that it was very flat which created a better , I'm not sure what the right word in Korean is, crispy rice layer (what they call soccarrat with paella). They didn't serve much Banchan with it, I didn't notice they have Korean barbecue until I was leaving. That's what I get for being hasty

    Must stop spot for hot pot!…read more I have always been a fan of red chili, but I've finally had the chance to do hot pot, and it was amazing. I try not to ever be the person showing up too close to closing time, but we were craving it and made the decision to go there and eat as fast as we could or else order to go to minimize being "those people". Well they were relatively busy for a Monday night, and yet they served us quickly and kindly as usual. We even said we know there's other groups here but we will be as fast as possible and they were very kind and patient with us regardless! As for the food- the lo mein my partner got was of course delicious and reliable. My hot pot was incredible, and with ridiculously generous portions of food. The restaurant as always is clean, pleasant, and of course fun to stop on the way in or out and say hello to the turtles and fishes. Always worth a stop in to this great restaurant!

I did find a person who visited this one and another one, Jianghu Café and so I asked her if I could only visit one, which do I do, and she said Jianhghu was the winner winner Szechuan lunch. I did go there and it was great! But I found myself having one additional dinner time without plans, so I came here as well. Walking in, I noticed what appeared to be a common Asian Massage Parlor next door, yo uget to it via the entry way that bring you here as well. Kinda odd, but it didn't bother me. Walking into this restaurant, it's very nicely laid out and beautifully décor'd! The servers and staff spoke great English and were very helpful, especially when answering questions about their menu. I started with their Garlic Cucumbers, but I asked for them to be spicy and Wow, they did a GREAT job with them! They weren't very hot, but so much spiciness and flavor - I loved them! Next up was to get their cumin chicken. They do cumin style in all their proteins, which makes for some great options. I chose their basic fried rice to come with this. The fried rice and cumin chicken were both amazing... Perfectly spiced and loaded with flavor. There were several Szechuan peppercorns in the dish, which added to the aroma and flavor of the dish. Overall - I really like this dinner! While I do feel Jianghu is slightly better, this is amazing as well!
