EDIT: Earlier tonight I had given a poor review based on the assumption that I had received less of…read moremy leftovers boxed than expected. It turns out that while some of what I paid for was not fully boxed to go as requested, one of my items (combination fried rice,) merely looked too small in the to go container. I assumed that after seeing the other container which was clearly missing a fair of congee, that the fried rice was also missing food but this was not that the case after putting it in a plate. I am correcting my review so as to not overreact and unfairly disparage an otherwise wonderful expereince. To start they have a very big menu, with a lot of choices. The food we received was very good food with good portions. Good, relaxed family atmosphere. The servers were nice as well. I had a great time while I was there and the food was priced affordably. I got the Szechuan pork intestine with hot peppers, Pork and thousand year old egg congee, the combination fried rice, crab rangoons, and Hong Kong Wonton Soup while my colleague got Egg Foo Young for herself. Each item was delicious and I highly recommend. Personally I have a very high spice tolerance so maybe be careful with the Szechuan pork intestines if you do not. I thought it was amazing, personally. This was also my first time having congee and the server chopped up the egg into pieces when she served it which was considerate of her. The pork was in small bits scattered throughout the congee and the flavor was wonderful, a very comforting dish. Got the HK Wonton soup based on recommendations from reviews online and it did not disappoint. The wontons are shrimp/pork I believe, and they were seasoned exquisitely which paired nicely with the subtle broth and the vegetables (I think baby bok choy and green onions). Crab rangoon did not disappoint either and was a great value for the quality and portion. Not to mention the great sauces they gave on the side (hot mustard, orange sauce, chili oil, andred sauce (for the rangoon)) as well as the hot tea they left in a kettle on the table (tasted like oolong but not sure). The tea in particular always welcome on my table to help digest such a feast. I really would like to give this place 5 stars. However, seeing as I did order a lot of food, when it came time to pay the check I asked for to-go containers. They asked to do it themselves to which I agreed. Unfortunately in this process, a fair amount of the congee, which I loved and wanted to eat later, was not packed. If they had run out of larger soup containers since it was the end of the evening I can understand that, but only giving me a small container that wasn't even filled is really regrettable. At least give me two of the smaller containers if that is the case, I know how much congee was left before handing it to be boxed and what I got was not even close. Realistically I can only mark down a maximum of 1.5 stars off from that but I am rounding up for conventional purposes because other from that misstep it was really a magnificent experience. I do recommend and I would return.

Also come 3 per order. We loved both and were happy with flavor, seasoning. Especially how fast the food came out. I would call this a small restaurant. The space is very casual with ample seating.

As soon as you're seated, you get offered hot tea and water. The hot tea is good. The waiter provided some great suggestions. The only thing is that we did have to request the chow mein noodles, when it was offered to the other tables. To eat, I tried the fried shrimp taro cake, fried crab rangoon, pan fried pork dumplings and special lomein. The fried shrimp taro cake was the best thing I've tried that day. It was delicious and I could eat this all day, everyday. The fried crab rangoon was also delicious and I will definitely order it again. The pork dumplings were tasty too. The special lomein had pork, chicken and shrimp and it was very good. It also came with white rice, which was had no seasoning, but that was expected. The special lomein is definitely a shareable dish. Overall, the service was good and the food was very tasty. I was also very surprised how affordable it was. This is definitely a place I would return when I'm craving Chinese food.

Inside, there are a lot of tables and in talking with my friends and the staff, it can get crazy busy, especially on weekends. But it wasn't too bad on a weekday early afternoon. We went for dim sum; they give you a menu with pictures and names, and a piece of paper to mark on what items you would like. Sometimes they'll names don't quite match but it's not too bad. They bring them from the kitchen when it's ready One tip for you: it's easy to over order, so you might order a smaller number of things and see how it goes, and order more later. Anyway, they have very many seafood and veggie dishes, which suits me just fine. And the waitress was making sure to point out what dishes had meat in them as she brought them to the table. That was very considerate. The price point for each item is on the high side, but the quantity is good. But of course it adds up in a hurry (another reason to see my tip about over ordering!) All in all, a pleasant meal and I was full when I left.

The restaurant feels very authentic to how Chinese restaurants are, the restaurant has a fish tank at the entrance which is very on brand and over all it's a pretty casual space. The food is really good and there are so many items on the menu, that I definitely recommend coming with a few people so you can try all the things you want without it being way too much food. There are a few waiters/waitresses and they all attentive. Even though one person takes the order, the other servers may bring your food, get you another drink, or clear things off of your table. This is also another restaurant I will definitely be back to and highly recommend, especially if you're looking for Dim Sum in Pines.

The chow mein was also not what we expected and had a taste we didn't enjoy. It also had a LOT of vegetables, whereas we're used to chow mein mostly having cabbage, so I think that's something they could make clearer on the menu or let customers know. We ordered to go, so I can't really comment much on the dining experience or ambience. From what we saw, it seemed like a regular, casual Chinese restaurant.

This place should close down, food is way to expensive and it was really bad. When I ordered the food they were already a little rude, but I thought maybe it's because they could barely understand me, my order turned out it was wrong and it was horrible I was throwing up all night.. The hole in the wall Chinese I order from my my house is delicious and cheap this place is expensive and bad. I asked for hot sauce they said I have to pay for it then I did and it was hot oil that wasn't hot at all.. Again if you want to be expensive and try to be fancy start with having someone who understands English, and give free hot sauce at least, and get a new chef because the food did not taste good at all.

Mr. Chef's is truly an ideal spot for those who love Vietnamese cuisine. Their spring rolls are meticulously prepared, featuring soft yet firm rice paper that holds a generous filling of fresh shrimp, tender pork, vermicelli, and crunchy vegetables. When paired with their flavorful dipping sauce--perfectly balanced with sweet and savory notes, topped with fragrant crushed peanuts--the dish becomes absolutely irresistible. Additionally, their pho is a highlight that shouldn't be missed. The broth is clear, aromatic, and rich, capturing the essence of beef bones simmered with star anise and cinnamon. read more

It's not easy to find such a good Chinese Restaurant in Aventura! I like the atmosphere there, really upscale, and the food is really good. I always order the salt and pepper shrimp and the double pan fried noodle--I like them. There are a lot of people telling me that Chinese restaurant always put MSG in the food, I know that's for the chef not good at cooking only. The food right here are very fresh, and I think the chef is good chef, because I can not find any MSG taste in the food--good. read more

The food is very good, but the management is so cheap it leaves a bad taste in one's mouth. If your takeout includes 2 small different soups you get 2 bags of noodles, but one large of the same soup (2x) as much as small, only one bag of noodles. If you take out a lunch menu special no noodles with soup, although you would get noodles with soup if you eat it there. $1 for each non included bag of noodles. Also lunch special takeout no mustard or duck sauce. read more
