    Food is pretty good. Pretty flavorful in my opinion. The space is definitely very open and vibrant. Servers are pretty attentive as well. Food is very enjoyable and presentation was great

    The food was very unique and delicious although the portions are quite small the prices are affordable and the place itself is so aesthetic. The service was good the staff would check in on us quite a well and make sure everything going okay i would recommend this place to try.

    We came here for my daughter birthday and the waiter was wonderful. Very professional and attentive. The restaurant is very spacious with an industrial vibe. We got several of the soup dumplings dishes including the imperial bao which including a samples of the various dumplings they served. Our favorite was definitely the black truffle and spicy Szechuan. The popcorn chicken and mushrooms were our kids favorite. It was also super nice of them to include some ice cream for our daughter for her birthday.

    Solid place - we came here for a work lunch. The food was great overall - I go the stir fried rice noodles and that was good. We also got a few apps - the sichuan wontons are amazing. The space is very airy and has a lot of natural sun which is cute. The mango sago was my favorite dessert here and would recommend that.

    I made one of those Internet inspired bingo cards to push myself a little to try new things and one of my squares is to try 12 new restaurants (outside of Yelp event privileges). Phat Phat was the first one of the year! I have seen the Imperial Xaio Long Bao on Instagram and was intrigued. I also saw the Chocolate Bao while scoping out the menu online and mentally added it to the list of things I wanted to try. When we got there, we saw the photos of the soup on the menu and thought it would be the perfect addition to the stop. I got the sweet corn soup (I'm trying new things, remember?) and my boyfriend got the wonton soup. I was a little skeptical of the consistency of the sweet corn soup, but it was not strange at all and the perfect thing to eat on a cold weekend. The Imperial Xaio Long Bao came with a lesson on how to eat them fully. I enjoyed every one less the Spicy Szechwan because it had dried shrimp in it and I cannot eat shellfish. My favorite one was the Chicken Curry [pink] with the OG Shanghai [white] a close second. Every single one was delicious, though! The Chocolate Bao were fluffy, decadent, and the perfect ending to our culinary adventure. Props for using imported chocolate over the American stuff, haha. The service was great, our waiter was funny, patient, and asked us some intelligent questions, like, how did we hear about the restaurant? The seating space was beautiful and it looked like there was a 2nd floor for seating, too? The tables were placed resourcefully, but not too close where you were sitting on top of one another. The space was bright and decorated well. I didn't use the bathrooms because I was too busy absorbing everything I definitely look forward to visiting again soon!

    Had a bit of a mixed visit. Came in with a larger group for early dinner. The restaurant looked nice and was pleasantly decorated. We were seated fairly quickly and the staff was very pleasant and helpful. My wife and I got the Mi Goreng, Dry Chilli Chicken, lychee iced tea and mango sago. The Mi Goreng was good and we enjoyed it a lot. The Dry Chilli Chicken didn't really look like the picture and was just okay. I didn't mind the Lychee Iced Tea but it was basically just Iced Tea with a very small hint of lychee flavor, my wife wasn't a fan. The Mango Sago was disappointing, It was very liquidy and wasn't too refreshing, mango tasted good though. Overall, staff and ambiance are nice. The food was more of a miss than hit unfortunately.

    This is an updated review as I haven't been back since that original review a few years ago. Came by on a Sunday afternoon for lunch to meet up with a friend who's also been here before. Service as usual was absolutely fantastic. He was so kind and helpful and made recommendations also. He was also very funny. We ordered quite a few dishes as you can tell from the photos and everything was really tasty and delicious Love coming here and trying some new things. This is definitely a must stop.

    Stir fried noodles (chicken)

    This is such a cute spot, tall ceiling with warm but chic decor, and plenty of easy parking in the lot behind the building. Staff was SO friendly from greeting us, to recommending menu items, to superb attention throughout our meal. That came in handy because the menu is quite expansive and can be confusing with the mix of visuals and line items. The menus we received had gone through quite a bit of wear and tear so at times it was hard to read and navigate. This didn't deter us though, we ended up asking a million questions instead haha. The food was very tasty and everything came out piping hot. They paced it so we could enjoy everything while warm. We got two sets of dumpling, two appetizers, and a larger noodle dish to share between two people. We probably could've ordered 2-3 more dumpling dishes. The dumplings really are the star so I would encourage you to order a variety to sample and try!

    Location had ample parking. A bit difficult to see from the Main Street and entrance was tough to find for parking lot. Eventually arrived and even with no reservations, we were able to get a table rather quickly. The dining room had clever decor, ample space, and had an inviting atmosphere. The food photos only show a portion of the menu, so look online before going although choices are plenty, there will be discussions about the food. A nice quaint place that you gotta try if you're a local or simply looking for a different flair.

    From the moment we saw pictures of the noodles, we knew we had to try Phat Phat. We really enjoyed our first visit two weeks ago. We loved it so much, we drove from the city to have it again today. This is such a great restaurant. It's clean, spacious, and busy...and rightfully so. The staff is super nice and they remembered us from the first visit! On our first visit, we had the orange chicken xiao long bao, sichuan wonton, kwetiaw with chicken (asked for spicy) and hongkong mee with chicken. On our second visit, we had the orange chicken xiao long bao, sichuan wonton and two kwetiaw with chicken (spicy again). We had to have the our own kwetiaw because we loved it so much. The wide noodles (looove wide noodles) are perfectly cooked and the savory sauce coats the noodles and chicken just enough to make it balanced and delicious. All the dishes we had were wonderful. We can't wait to go back and try more items...and have all the same things!

    Variety of dishes

    The restaurant is very well decorated, which makes an amazing environment for a date night with cozy bench seats or quaint tables. It's also a perfect place to go if you want to order many small dishes and share. Each dumping dish comes with 3-4 in steamer baskets making it perfect to go with 2-4 people. I recommend the siew mai, sichuan wonton, and gao zi in the dim sum menu and the enoki mushrooms from the appetizer menu. All of the dishes arrived quickly and stove hot and the experience overall was fantastic. The servers are attentive and checked in with us frequently.

    Last time I was in town, my mom and I had lunch here. And it was only us two but we ordered for 6 for some reason but that's ok because used we got to take it home and eat it again later. My mom happens to always be cold so she ordered hot tea and soup but we also got fried rice, dumplings and skewers. Our eyes were hungrier than our stomachs. We even ordered dessert bao and they were so good. Fluffy and light and beautiful too. Service was great too - friendly and welcoming. This is a great restaurant and I recommend it.

    Are there any vegan options?

    We do have some vegan items in our menu.

    Do you have any gluten-free options?

    We do have some items that are gluten free, but the choices are limited.

    Do you have any halal meat options?

    Surprisingly YES they do! Just ask the waiter. We didn't ask and when we were there the waiter freely told us they use halal meat! Still it's always best to ask which specific dishes are made solely with halal meat just to be on the safe side.

    Does the claypot rice works for carryout?? I think since it's in a claypot..taking it out wont be easy

    We are currently serving them to go. Our chefs still prepare as normal but only stir the rice and sauce and place the protein on top of the rice.

Then the other server that brought our entrees spilled my husbands tea and again no offering to getting a fresh cup. We had to ask AGAIN for a fresh cup! While the portions were generous, the quality of all the food has gone way down. The special family recipe of thier shrimp dish Gan Pong is nothing but fried shrimp with dried chili peppers and no flavor. The Hunan spicy beef and chicken appeared to be all globs and sticky because of excessive and over use of corn starch used during the cooking process. This dish didn't have any unique flavor that one would expect. Previously we had experienced a difference in the food, taste and quality and that's what kept us returning. Sadly, after this experience I wouldn't recommend it to anyone or come back! I'd rather stick with Yu's Mandarin than drive to this place! Quality always wins over quantity in my books!

There was no manager available, staff acted like I was making the mouse up, refused to take my concern seriously, and still made me pay for food I couldn't stomach eating after what I witnessed.
