    My first time having hot pot was a good experience, but the service could be better. The host and servers were quick, but had little interaction with us. They gave us a tablet to order and walked away. It would have been helpful if they had explained the ordering process and self serve sauce bar. When I've gone to KBBQ places, they usually tell you the cook times or provide a chart for raw/frozen foods.

    Other than the waiter who helped served us, everything else is overhyped and overpriced. I was there waited for 2 hours on a Saturday night. I guess it was expected. We were there excited to try this new location in Jersey city, but the soup bases are meh. Quantity is not matching with what we paid for. It was just not a great experience for me personally. Personally I would not returned.

    There will come a day when Shoo Loong Kan makes it to 4+ stars (being that it's pretty much the only legit hot pot spot in downtown JC right now), but today is not the day. The clearly under-staffed, overwhelmed shop felt like the "before" scene of a Valium commercial before the beleaguered heroine serer takes her medicine and all's right with the world. Except we didn't get any downers and mostly just got jostled and bumped a lot until we were done. Anywho, broth-wise, the House Special Chili Broth delivers the LA in mala, and sensitive stomachs should definitely pre-game with Tums beforehand. The Pork Rib Broth is classic bone broth goodness and definitely the way to complement if you're opting for yin yang-style hot pot. Al the ingredients we got came out fresh and firm, but there was one odd item none of us could figure out. It LOOKED like soft tofu, but was much harder, with an almost cartilage consistency. No idea what it was, but none of us died from eating it, so I'd consider that a winner. Also, they don't offer bok choy. How does a Chinese hot pot spot not have bok choy. Boooooo! Boo in the name of the cabbage family!!! Also boooo for charging $2.99pp for the sauce bar--a feature that's free in every other hot pot restaurant. They do try to sweeten the deal by also including small appetizers (spicy pig ears, seaweed salad) and desserts (weird-flavored jelly, sliced oranges, blueberries), but none of them were very good so I'd still grumble about the charge.

    This is the best hotpot in jersey city hands down!! Beware spicy can get super spicy but so delicious.

    Delicious! The meat quality is excellent. I recommend the A5 beef chuck and 扭转乾坤. My favorite soup bases are the tomato, coconut chicken

Their soup dumplings are impeccable and I would say their egg custard with black truffle is the best I've ever tasted. They also have a tangerine pu'ar tea they serve with an ornate glass teapot and they rest it on a heater with a candle. Their peach gummy tremella dessert (sort of a health/beauty food served chilled or hot) was also quite good. Exceptional and very attentive service, and the interior is very stylish, well-decorated and chill. The restaurant is also a chain with locations in NY & NJ including Flushing, Long Island, and Manhattan in NY as well as Jersey City (this one) and Fort Lee. Highly recommended!

I had to make the stank face after trying the chili oil and accompanying flavors, it's like a soft tangy and spicy flavor that is incredible, definitely house made. The tea was a rose sweet green tea, tastes great- the teapot was heavy which I loved The citrus bloom drink was presented spectacularly, the glass and the dried yellow flower on top was a great addition. It tastes like citrus with only a hint of alcohol The mapo tofu is awesome, I had it without beef but it's soft and has that mouth numbing you get from Sichuan. It's probably the most tingling I've gotten, my whole mouth and lips Absolutely beautiful aesthetic, there is peaceful string music playing the whole time and the entire place is decorated stunningly The service was amazing, the server told me how they make the appetizer as well as poured the cup of tea for me, other than that you normally order on the iPad which makes things very easy. You are able to add order notes for restrictions, and they also came and double checked if I was good with beef in the Mapo Tofu.

    I was looking for a different Chinese restaurant to try in Jersey City, particularly one that had a…read moredecent variety of vegetarian offerings. Fortunately, we discovered Yuan, located in the office area of Newport. We arrived shortly after 6pm on a Friday evening, effectively an early dinner for us and most. The bright side is that we were able to finish easily within an hour. I do enjoy their little booths. We sat in one and kinda felt private even if it wasn't. Just a nice little touch, we felt. To start, we ordered the Eggplant with Minced Pepper Sauce. This had a really nice kick to it. A pretty cool way to eat Eggplant. We enjoyed it. After that, we split Veggie Noodles & the Kung Pao Tofu. The noodles were great as I anticipated. The Kung Pao Tofu was cooked pretty well too. I was looking for something different from the Ma Po Tofu I'm used to eating as I'm getting a little sick of the after taste. This Kung Pao, like most others, has a combination of every flavor palette. Perhaps a little too much for me, but maybe if they could make a General Tso's Tofu, that'll bring me back to my memories of Chinese Takeout! Anyhow, this place is pretty good for dinner at a reasonable time. I highly recommend. My other half will be trying the non-vegetarian options in the future!

We opted for traditional beef broccoli as well and it was flavorful as the noodles. I was happy with every bite! I noticed 3 tables (all chinese folks) were served with the fish dish and as we passed by the dish looked so appetizing so felt we missed out even though the dishes we ordered were very good and flavorful. Definitely will try the fish next go round. Waitress was excellent and provided explanation of the dishes on the menu written both in chinese and english. She provided insider knowledge and created a nice and friendly atmosphere.Inside aesthetic was pleasant, clean & modern setting. We had best seat by the window on the corner just added to a great dining experience!

I asked for a side of chili sauce which elevated them. The soy ginger sauce they give for it were excellent as well. The sauces elevated an average dumpling. The crab rangoons were the star of the dinner. The filling was scallion heavy over sweet which I personally enjoy more. It didn't come with sweet and sour but using the soy ginger sauce was great with them. Some of the best I've had. The chongqing chicken was definitely on the spicy side so be aware. I'm the biggest issue was that the chicken was dry. Wish there was a type of sauce that came with this. This place was good but i don't know if I would order from them again

    After many recommendations I finally tried King Szechuan and have only good things to report…read more We got the sauteed eggplant, soup dumplings, chicken and broccoli, chicken lo mein and veggie fried rice. All of that came out to around $60 so really not bad!! Okay, the favorites: The soup dumplings stole the show for me. Finally I found soup dumplings without that thick dough skin. The meat in the dumpling and the broth had so much flavor (but I will say there was not much actual broth). Can't wait to get these again. Other favorites were the eggplant - cooked perfectly and loved the oil that had just the tiniest kick. The chicken and broccoli was delicious and fried rice was a wonderful side to have as well. The lo mein was just okay but I still really enjoyed it. Other good things to report: I love that they don't charge extra for brown rice, ordering was very easy via Yelp and ready quickly. It might take awhile if you are picking up because the people that work the counter are also probably cooking so just be patient. Also be sure to ask for chopsticks if you want them! They weren't in the bag so making a mental note to be sure to grab a pair next time. 5 stars and 2 thumbs up.
