I made the first of what will be many trips to Jiaozi 88 today. I was looking for something light for lunch so put in an online order for the shrimp dumplings (har gao) and tom yum soup with chicken. Everything was fantastic, bright and fresh. The sauce for the dumplings was delicate and nicely salty, the dumplings were fully stuffed with perfectly cooked shrimp. The very hot temperature and richness of the tom yum was just right on a cold and rainy day. I am looking forward to eating my way through the entire menu. read more

Incredible service! So friendly and welcoming. Loveeeee the pad Thai! Super basic to get and actually not what I was going for but I was recommended to try it so much so that I did. Literally perfect! The Cambodian egg rolls were delish and even when I heated the leftover ones in the oven the next day, they were yummy! The soup dumplings are what are hands down the best ever! Omggggg!!! I really like soup dumplings and these do not disappoint. I can't wait to try more from this place and I recommend! (The table next to us were eating the bang bang shrimp and raving about it) read more

If there isn't a lady wielding giant scissors, pushing a cart full of covered dishes, yelling "HAR GOW???" at you, is it really dim sum? Still, while you can expect to pay more than you'd expect- $7 to $8 a serving, you do tend to get 5 pieces. Selection is limited, but pretty tasty. The soup dumplings were quite nice, as were the Cambodian egg rolls. The har gow had tasty filling, though my husband felt the wrapper was too thigh. The shu mai was ok- could have had a bit more flavor. If you want dim sum around Utica, though, come here. The person behind the counter was very kind. I'm looking forward to trying more dishes here! read more

AMAZING. Seriously. Great prices, but the food is next-level good. Every single item exceeded expectations. The veggie spring rolls were scrumptious and filling on their own. The tofu pad thai was such a generous portion and made a delicious dinner AND amazing lunch as cold leftovers. The seaweed salad was a gigantic portion size as well and tasted fresh. Prices were right where I expected them and matched the quality. If I lived here, this would be my go-to place any time I was craving takeout! read more

Our first time trying this restaurant and we were so happy with all of our food! Owner Sam is an amazing guy who is passionate about sharing his cuisine and it shows! If you're a dim sum fan, this is your spot. The dumplings and bang bang shrimp were insanely good, and the Cambodian fried egg rolls were the best egg rolls we've ever had. Perfectly crispy on the outside and full of flavor. The Pad Thai and Bulgogi were also delicious and we'd order them both again in a heartbeat. Honestly everything we had was yummy and we highly recommend Jiaozi 88. We can't wait to go back and try more from the menu. read more

Tldr; order anything because everything is perfect. Details below. We're looking for local dumpling offerings and lucky to have found Jiaozi 88. The Peking Ravioli were delicious and served with a wonderful sweet sauce. The dumpling skin was hearty and enjoyable, good texture with a soft and flavorful pork filling. We were looking forward to trying the takoyaki but it was unavailable so we substituted with a calamari which was delicious. We had to wait a little longer than expected for pickup and the owner was very gracious and gave us Shanghai soup dumplings on the house. They were incredible! So good, we ordered again the next week and made sure to add Shanghai dumplings. We're taking a tour of the menu and enjoing all the offerings. Pad Thai was tasty with a perfect texture and flavor. Yakiudon delicious and the udon noodles cooked perfectly. The takoyaki was available and we couldn't be happier! Should have ordered 2 portions! Bibimbap hit all the right notes making for a perfect experience. Soup, wonderfully light miso udon soup with complex flavor and simple offering. Our first order was the vegetable miso udon, the vegetables were still firm giving a nice texture. Our second order was chicken miso udon and I say this as a professional cook of 15 years, the chicken is the most tender I've ever had in a soup. We will continue happily ordering until we have tried the whole menu because there has not been one disappointment. All of the offerings have been fresh with without the greasy heaviness found with some other restaurants. My only regret is not having sat down to have the freshest experience, take out doesn't do this food justice. read more

Out here for a wedding and decided to stop here for lunch. Such a great casual spot to grab a bite. We ordered and ate right at the restaurant and the service and food were excellent. We tried all the dumplings and really enjoyed them, particularly the soup dumplings. We also had the bang bang shrimp which were huge and awesome. We definitely recommend checking this place out. read more

Jiaozi 88 - Soup dumplings, lo mein, dumplings - Asian Fusion Near Me - New Hartford, New York

This place is awful.. rude staff right when we walked In. Got our order wrong. Overly pricy for crap food. This is the chow fun, consists of gelatinous noodles and drenched in a nasty thick gravy. For the most part was clean but the issue I had when trying to get a straw for my drink all the straws are unwrapped and just exposed to all the germs and who knows how many peoples hands have touched them. My boyfriend ordered the Oyakadon and it came out 3/4 mushrooms which is weird because he's been to Japan and reported that in fact should not have mushrooms period, especially most of the dish. I'd love to trust the raving reviews but this is simply sad. read more

So good! We ordered a bunch of apps and an order of Lo Chat. All were awesome. Shanghai soup dumplings were to die for! The lo chat was fantastic as well. All the soups and noodle dishes look great, it is a bit of a drive from my camp in the Beach but oh so worth it! read more

I am so happy this place opened in New Hartford. Very good food and the owner Sam is so incredibly nice. My kids flipped over the soup dumplings! The fried octopus balls were mind blowing. We will definitely be regulars!! read more

The food and especially the customer service are awful. I was treated poorly for coming in one hour prior to closing. If you wish to close at a certain hour, close early. Don't take it out on others trying to pay you for a meal. It's not like I came in 10 minutes prior to closing, and it was a simple take out order. I asked for egg rolls, and was charged thereof, yet never received them. The thai tea was clearly a pre mix and tasted awful. My chicken was ok, the egg on top was severely over cooked. I will not be back read more

AMAZING! Eat anything from here and you'll be able to tell it's the freshest around. The dough they use for their noodles and the "ravioli" is to die for. This is just what NH needs. I hope they market enough to stay around-they're truly a hidden gem. read more

Found this small, hole in the wall restaurant while visiting family in the area. Dim sum was excellent! We had the soup dumplings, har how and shiu mai. Super delish! Also ordered ramen bowls- I've had better. Missing the depth of flavor that I've had at other restaurants. They have seating but counter service (didn't know that until we arrived. ). Seems to have a thriving take-out business. Lots of customers coming and going while we dined in. Would definitely come back for the dim sum. read more

Locally owned, fresh flavors and ingredients! Everything is SO GOOD -- I've tried everything from the noodle soups, dumplings, stir fried noodles and rice bowls. The Kuey teo/ Pho are my favorite noodle soups and Pad Woon Sen for stir fried noodles. Tempura app, TAKOYAKI, Shumai, and special steamed pork buns are my top apps. Can't go wrong with any of the options on the menu, really!! Updated hours as of 02/2021: 11-8pm EVERYDAY. read more

This place has the best wanton soup I have ever had. The calamari is also delicious. It's by the Hannaford's on Kellogg Rd. Please go support this business!! read more

AMAZING. The food here reminds me of time spent in Taiwan. The soup dumplings are (literally) bursting with flavor and taste just like the authentic Xiaolongbao I know. I also have had their soups, which are very large portions and also delicious. The menu is quite diverse (Cambodian, Thai, Chinese, Japanese, and more). If you like any kind of Asian food you'll definitely find something here you will like (or probably LOVE). The owner was very nice when I went in for lunch and even gave me two complementary dumplings that were also really good. Everything was hot and made fresh, so yes you might have to wait 10-15 min for the order but it is totally worth it. I would definitely recommend this for someone searching for great tasting, authentic, fresh Asian food. And even if you've never had it before, go give it a try and I'm sure you'll find something really tasty. I will definitely be back to Jaiozi 88! read more

Went to this restaurant on the recommendation of a friend who's eaten there many times. We were not disappointed. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable the food was great. We did not order ahead of time and we ate in the restaurant. It was only about a 10 minute wait for the three of us the food came out hot and delicious. Seems like many people ordered takeout but there were enough tables for about 12 people to sit comfortably during these Covid times. Will be back soon! read more

Great food and service! Locally owned, variety of dishes (yaaaay tofu and vegetarian options!) and a bright comfortable atmosphere. All of the noodles are awesome and lots of menu choices! Go here, it's fantastic! read more
