    a variety of food items on a table
    Kristina V.

    We were kind of apprehensive because of the mixed reviews but... we needed a new go-to for Chinese in the neighborhood and BAMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!! It was soooo bomb.. several reasons. Let's start off with what we ordered: - Scallion pancake: layers on layers and layers. Crispy on the outside and chewy layers on the inside. There were so many scallions too. We really enjoyed the dipping sauce as well. - Crab rangoon: they were folded in cute little triangles with tucked in corners. Super flavorful with lots of imitation crab meat, not just cream cheese. - Kung Pao chicken: SPICY and good. Lots of veggies and peanuts. They did not skimp on the chicken either. Thank you! - Chicken and broccoli: My parter LOVED this. It is usually his go-to dish for Chinese so I am happy that he really liked it. He really liked that the broccoli had a crunch to it and it wasn't limp and soggy like most Chinese carry-outs. Then, the order came so fast! Like lightening speed. The delivery guy was so nice too. That is all. I cannot wait to try other things on the menu. BYE

    FF2. Pork Fried Rice, AP14. 8 Crab Rangoon
    Julia F.

    While in Harlem I had a taste for Chinese food and decided to try a different restaurant than the one I usually go to when I'm in the area. My daughter recommended this place because she recently tried their wings and loved it. I ordered a small pork fried rice, crab Rangoon and a Canada Dry ginger ale. It was ok. The pork fried rice was more like yellow rice with roast pork not the actual fried rice served at most Chinese restaurants. I prefer oily pork fried rice with more of a fried look to it if that makes sense. However, I really liked the crab Rangoon. They were stuffed really well and had a great fresh taste.

    The food here is very good compared to other Chinese food closer to me. They delivered my food in 20 min I ordered beef and broccoli and scallion pancakes. The scallion pancakes are amazing! Beef and broccoli is good too. They threw in a egg roll and soda

    This Chinese restaurant WAS my go to place. Their pork fried rice is one of the best I've tasted. However, I recently ordered from this restaurant and was highly disappointed. I ordered the chicken and broccoli lunch special and was faced with an unsettling piece of bone. I don't want to be rude, but the bone appeared claw-like. I contacted the restaurant and explained to them what I discovered in my food. They were indeed receptive and agreed to replace my meal. Although I wanted a refund, my coworker suggested I try something different and "safe". That will be the last time I order from there. This experience makes me apprehensive about ALL Chinese food.

    As the name implies, it really is an excellent dumpling house!…read more Me and my buddies were in Jersey and New York for some hockey games, and wanted to go to a deli, get some Chinese food, and a slice of pizza. Got off the E train and when we looked for Chinese food, this place popped up with good reviews and it was just a short walk from where we got off the train. My buddies ordered the special lunches and we also got two types of xlb's, beef chow fun, and some fried dumplings. The special lunches come with a little fried rice, cold garlic flavored noodle, choice of egg drop or hot and sour soup, and main side. My buddies all enjoyed their meals. The beef chow fun was also really good and beef was nice and tender. The xiao long baos were excellent and is comparable to any place in California like DTF. Nice and juicy and great with some ginger, soy sauce, and spicy chili. Friendly service and food comes out pretty quickly. Credit card is accepted. Bathroom was also very clean, which is sometimes rare in some Chinese restaurants I have been to. If you're looking for a good Chinese meal, stop here when you're in the Chelsea area.

I hadn't been to EDH in a while and was happy to see they do have later hours (with a smaller late night menu). The place was pretty busy at 10:00 PM last Saturday, with a wide range of diners, which is good for business. The food though, at least that night, was really disappointing. My friend had the chicken dumplings. He said they were okay. I thought they were overcooked. My steamed shrimp shumai were fine, but steamed, they didn't have much flavour. The edamame, on the other hand, had way too much when it should have almost none. I don't know if it was excess salt, MSG or something else, but not good. I should have sent them back. I hope this was just an off night for the kitchen.

I'm a lower middle-class Jersey guy - what the heck do I know about cocktails?  But I dove right into one ("Jade Collins") and it was firing on all cylinders.  Crisp, clean, strong enough to knock over an ox. Then we got a handful of apps - everyone else swore by all the ones they'd had - but I just tried the Salt & Pepper Shrimp and... sweet baby Jesus, this little plate had a wicked amount of flavor from every angle.  "Aggressively seasoned" might be an understatement.  Wild. Onto the mains and I ventured towards their Spicy Drunken Noodle (my go-to whenever I'm hitting a Thai restaurant on my home turf) and... yeah, you probably guessed it - incredible. Not the biggest portion but they made every single component sing with flavor. With so much going on - of course I needed to indulge with another drink (hey, I wasn't driving!). There were six of us, it came to about $100 a person... welcome to NYC. But we did get a wide selection of plates/food and those two drinks accounted for about $40 of my tab. (And you'll never see such a heavy wine pour at a restaurant... they filled the glass almost to the rim - which was not even something I'd do for myself when I'm home.) Definitely recommended.

Then the scallion pancakes which were crispy and airy paired with this very interesting sauce that was clear but tasted like sweet and sour sauce. For mains we got Kung Pao Chicken which was pretty delicious but my star of the show was the Crispy Beef. It was crispy asf and skinny too I didn't know you could make beef skinny like that. Sauce was super tasty and thick. On the side was broccoli which was fine and eggplant which was fine on its own and good with the chili sauce. Split the Fortune Cookie Red Velvet Cake which okay I thought there would be more creativity with adding fortune cookies somewhere in the cake but it was just a cake with fortune cookies on top. Also they put 2 when we had 4 people like lowkey they couldve just put 2 more on there but anyways the cake itself was pretty tasty so can't complain there.

The food is all over the place but the main theme is that everything is over-seasoned to please the crowd of people who all were gulping down colorful sugary cocktails with dinner while wearing athletic clothing. Peking duck (for 4-5) had great accompaniments (rare to actually get bao with it) but it was a lackluster portion of duck. Salt and pepper shrimp were offensively salted. Special "mignon" was great. The hand-pulled noodles *gasp* weren't hand pulled. "BBQ" chicken in the other noodles was very dry. Sea bass portion was very small. Scallion pancakes were good. Shrimp dumplings were the highlight. I recommend skipping this restaurant.
