Takeout is 4 stars assuming your proximity to delivery or pick up allows you to eat straight away. Dining in however is just ok. The food: pork soup dumplings, scallion pancakes, peanut butter noodles, bok choi, and vegetable dumplings. I should know better than to order the thick green skin vegetable dumplings so I won't comment on them. Everything else was just ok. The reason I suspect was the volume of take out orders running through the kitchen and maybe just back luck on this meal. The food had cooled down by the time it reached our table, in contrast with hot takeout & delivery. I'll stick to takeout for now.

We shared a big table, which added to the authentic feel of the place. The staff were nice. The carts were copious. They serve the greatest hits. The preparation is a bit different from other dim sum restaurants in the area. This just highlighted the deliciousness of the dishes. We worked our way through the greatest hits. Standouts were the clams in black bean sauce and pork chops. Has fried tofu skins filled with ground shrimp for the first time. The food was uniformly excellent. A great find, hiding in plain sight.

The bathroom was passable, but definitely could be better. The staff were to the point and did their jobs well. The Beijing pork chop was fried well and had great flavor. My only gripe was that there were some small end pieces. I wish we had some bigger pieces of meat. The fried tofu was done well. They put some corn starch underneath each piece of shrimp so the shrimp will stay on top. It was not always cook through, so that was unpleasant. The snow pea shots were cooked well and it was a massive portion. We also have pan fried noodles with seafood. The portions were huge and we have leftovers for the next day. With tip it was around $125, which is a great deal for this meal.

Note: This is a less detailed review than normal, as we ordered a ton of food from the AYCE menu,…read moreas can be seen from the photos Anyway, I've been back to this tasty Chinese place twice since my first review, with the second one being a very similar meal. The most recent time, I was here for their dim sum brunch, which is either $36 for AYCE plus $2 for tea, or they price each thing individually. It was a bit annoying that the tea was not included, but at least both the Oolong and Chrysanthemum teas were good quality and readily filled. Service in general was pretty fast and frequently checked on our large semi- private table to see if we needed anything else to order or more tea. The dim sum selection is a bit smaller than many of the traditional dim sum spots, but the overall quality was excellent, with a couple of definite highlights and some more unique dishes such as dumplings with pickled shrimp, crawfish, or Taizhou rice along with Ningbo wontons. In general, I would say that the wrappers were properly thin and everything was filled generously. The aforementioned Pickled Pepper Shrimp Dumplings were one of the highlights. The slightly spicy and sour pickles made it taste very light and paired nicely with the plump shrimp. In terms of other shrimp dim sum, their version of Har Gow/Crystal Shrimp Dumplings included a little bit of sweet crab for an extra touch. It was also tasty. I also liked the Ningbo wontons, filled with a variety of ingredients including minced pork, dried shrimp, yard long beans, pickled vegetables, bamboo shoots, and others. It had a wonderful mix of textures with some interesting crunchy notes. Another unique option mentioned is their Crawfish Dumplings, which are very noticeable compared to the other dumplings due to their bright red color. I appreciated the spiciness but found these a tad fishy with a thicker wrapper than most, but others loved these and ordered more. For more standard dumplings, their Xiao Long Bao/XLB were pretty good, and they had a tasty version of Sticky Rice Pork Siu Mai. The Baked Pork Buns were good as they were not too sticky sweet. Finally, there was a decent version of Pork Dumplings in Chili Oil. Non-dumpling highlights included their excellent turnip cakes along with steamed spare ribs, chicken feet, and a particularly tasty version of steamed beef tripe with satay sauce. I would skip the Beef Short Ribs With Black Pepper, which had good flavor but was way too chewy. I know someone else ordered the spring rolls, but I don't remember trying them. They also apparently now have a Ningbo speciality called Shi Bing Tong, but I don't remember ordering it. Someone else got their simple and tasty porridge/congee, only available traditionally with pork and century eggs, and enjoyed it. I tried a bit, and it was indeed good. Desserts included a tasty Crispy Durian Pastry, alright Sesame Balls, a good Pineapple Bun/Bolo Bao, and Custard Buns, which everyone loved, but they had a cuttlefish ink shine, so I couldn't try them. This is a fantastic, reasonably priced AYCE Dim Sum. Would recommend it if they still offer this deal.

I was drunk, starving and alone when the dumpling craving hit. Luckily, I was in an area where I…read morejust sensed there had to be decent dumplings nearby. A quick Google search of the area proved my senses right - Nan Xian Soup Dumplings was just a few blocks away from me. I arrived and was promptly seated and given a bible-sized menu of dumplings to choose from. The casual atmosphere made me feel comfortable and ready to take down two orders of dumps. I went classic with an order of pork soup dumplings, then decided to try out the lucky six, which offered a variety of all their dumplings. The classic soup dumplings absolutely slapped and were my favorite. Hot, brothy, delicious. The medley was fun and surprising, but I kept finding myself coming back to the classic ones. I appreciated the dumpling accoutrements on the table - chili oil, vinegar, fresh ginger. I would come here again any day.

Scallion and pork soup dumplings come in bright red goodness, with seafood flavor. Each soup dumpling is meticulously hand made and weighed to ensure consistency.

Scallion pancake is nicely crispy with yummy flavorful scallions and beef strips in sweet Peking duck sauce.

The pan fried beef buns I'm not sure if I tried before but were great as well. Came hot and had a nice char on them, however the crust to filling ratio was a little off - I'd love more filling. They didn't reheat great in the microwave. I imagine they'd reheat better on a pan or in the air fryer.
