The sichuan fish fillet in chilli sauce had the smokey taste, not sure if it's authentic, it's not the usual version done in most other restaurants. Xiao Long Bao had a very fine minced meat inside, and the dough was so thin and fine in texture that it lost its chewiness. Not the best I've had. Other dishes were decent. Food came out fast. Service was not as good as last time. They were stingy giving us insufficient container and bag. Food contained MSG. read more

You walk in and are greeted with being able to watch the people make the dough for the dumplings and noodles. I absolutely loved that touch. Very quick service and delicious food. I would absolutely eat here again any day. The Wagyu wrap came out more like fajitas. I thought it would come out already wrapped up due to the picture on the menu, but turns out they were displaying on the TV screens that it comes out like fajitas so my bad. It was really really fun though because they lit it on fire at the table. Would come for all the deliciousness again. read more

Rating: 3.5/5 Crab Roe and Pork Soup Dumplings - this came out fresh and steaming hot. It was good, soup was flavorful and the overall dumpling didn't really need any extra sauce to go with it. The crab flavor is more forward than pork and the wrap wasn't too thick. Shanghai Crab Roe Noodles - thick, creamy, saucy, had pieces of roe (prob be yummy with crab meat as well) crab flavor is there and wasn't too strong. It was good on its own or with a touch of vinegar that came with the dish. I think it would've been even better with a bit of heat, but overall it was enjoyable. The noodles were soft and paired well with it and the dish even comes with ginger shots to cleanse your palate and end your meal with. Cheese and Shrimp Potstickers - this was an interesting combination, but it worked. It was juicy and you def taste the cheese and shrimp but I wasn't a fan of the wrapper which was a bit too thick for my liking. I also didn't really care for the dipping sauce (reminded me of ranch, which didn't really pair well with the potstickers, but not quite sure what it was) Salt & Pepper Pork Chop - flavors are there and the pork is more on the meaty end. The onions paired well with the dish but it was a bit oily and the pork chop wasn't as crisp as I would've liked. Service was good, place is clean, open kitchen and can see them wrapping the dumplings, and there are tv screens and pictures on the wall showcasing their food. Overall, I'd come here again for the crab roe noodles and soup dumplings and I'm open to trying other menu items. I'd pass up on the other two items the next time. read more

We had a party of 8 near close time so the hostess told us to wait for 20 minutes. This was accurate and we were seated as anticipated. We ordered the dry fried green beans, Chinatown chow mein, and pork xiao long bao. The green beans were super salty because of the pork. The chow mein was not bad but also not the best I've had. The xiao long bao was definitely not up to expectations. The soup inside tasted like corn soup and was very strange tasting. They didn't give us vinegar or ginger, nor did they give us soup spoons until we badgered them multiple times. Atmosphere was typical of a Chinese restaurant. read more

Was at the mall and decided to stop by Stick and Wok for dinner. Its a small restaurant and very busy. They managed to seat us as a table of 8 (automatic 18% gratuity). I ordered the chow mein, green beans, and the XLB. The XLB soup tasted like corn, despite no corn being in the pork. The green beans with pork were very salty. The chow mein was okay. The service was also poor. When we received our XLB, we asked for soup spoons, vinegar and garlic. The waitress was a little snarky and we had to ask a couple of times. read more

Randomly saw this new place when walking around vf and decided to give it a try. Got the waygu beef wrap and Xiao long bao, the beef wrap was good but nothing amazing but the Xiao long baos surprised me, the skin was thin and the filling inside was great. I will definitely be returning to try the other items read more

I was window shopping and decided to stop in for a snack. Their dumplings caught my eye as they have an employee at standing in the front making them. The restaurant is bright and spacious with very simple decor. It reminds me of the Hong Kong cafes. A nice touch is that they have pictures of some dishes on the wall - I'm a visual person. The soup dumplings came out steaming hot and juicy. There was quite a bit of broth inside too. I like that the wrapper was very thin. Great option since DTF has such a long wait all the time. read more

Another Valley Fair asian joint where there is a line but its a shorter one. Very authentic variety on the menu as we had the following: Cucumbers Salad- chopped cucumbers with a vinegar dressing and a nice refreshing crunch to accompany the other dishes. Walnut Shrimp - generous size of shrimp and fried to perfection with a slight drizzle of mayo/honey sauce which was made the shrimp have a good crunch. MaPo Tofu- Went with a veggie option (minus the pork) as it was a flavor bomb but a little strong on the sichuan peppercorns. Waguy Truffle fried rice- little bits of beef but the rice itself had the truffle essence and it was needed to pair with the other dishes. Busy Friday night but the service was quick, friendly and efficient. read more

We stopped by since the restaurant we wanted to originally come to had a bit of a line, and we were pretty hungry. The food was okay, and the service was a little lacking. Also for the price point, I guess I kind of expected a bit more? 1. Mongolian beef wrap was decent. The beef was tender, and came to your table on a hot sizzling plate. They light it on fire for show. It came with 3 large flour tortillas, but the amount of beef you get is barely enough to fill one of them. My husband and I ended up only using two wraps, and they weren't even close to being halfway filled. It was disappointing if I were to be completely honest. 2. Crab roe fried rice. It was really good, and you could see the crab roe cooked throughout the rice. It didn't have that smokiness unfortunately, but the crab flavor did come through. I enjoyed the corn in it, it complimented the crab flavor nicely. 3. Pork xiao long bao. It was the best item that we ordered, but it also took the longest to get to our table. Unfortunately I did not take a picture of it since we devoured it, but the meat was really tender. The pork filling practically melted in your mouth, and the soup wasn't overly porky. I wish we received more ginger vinegar sauce with it, but it is what it is. They also did not give us soup spoons to use, so we ended up having to use the serving spoons that came with our previous two dishes. The table next to us got their dumplings at the same time as we did and received their spoons though. It might be because it's a holiday weekend, but it seemed like they weren't prepared for how busy it was. The staff seemed really flustered, and people were waiting a while for their food, mainly for the xiao long baos. It was almost half an hour before one of the staff came to apologize about the wait for the dumplings. Maybe it's just due to the busy holiday weekend, but I'm hesitant on coming back. My husband would, but I'm on the fence. read more

Group dinner review. Came here with 7 people on a weekday. It was completely empty at the time compared to all the crazy long lines at places next door. At first glance and seeing the name, I thought this was a fast casual spot with Chinese style burritos. I was pleasantly surprised by the end. FOOD was not cheap but tasted great. We ordered the honey walnut prawn, truffle wagyu fried rice* (popular), kung pao chicken (not spicy), Mongolian wagyu beef* (very good), cold cucumber salad, Sichuan green beans*, crab roe noodles*, salt and pepper calamari, crab roe pork potstickers, and white rice. Everything tasted good with highlights with asterisks. The chef in the back even gave us an early preview of a steamed dish coming soon. Yum. The service was super fast. Good came out quickly (except pot stickers take 10-15 min). Water was always refilled without asking. Came out to around $35 person with 7 people. read more

Starting with the good. Service was friendly and efficient. Definitely nothing to complain about there. What let us down was the food. To be clear it's not bad. It's just not good for the price. I know it's in Valley Fair mall so the price will be higher than other places, but I do expect the taste to be better. The walnut prawns had too much dough. The Shanghai crab noodles was interesting but the sauce was more egg flavor than crab, which was disappointing. The string beans was good though. We're unlikely to be back just because there are plenty of other better options at Valley Fair at this price point. read more

I'm not sure if I came on a bad day or if the main chef wasn't in, but I came with my family on a Saturday afternoon during lunch. We were greeted and led to our table. The service was excellent, but the food was very under-seasoned. I heard it was the equivalent to Din Tai Fung (without the long wait times), but was very disappointed. 1. Cucumber Salad: Loved how it looked like the traditional crushed cucumbers and the bowl was filled to the brim, but it was served room temperature and it lacked the zesty tanginess. We had to ask for more vinegar (which made the cucumbers slightly more decent). 2. Mapo Tofu: It sure had the má flavor (numbing sensation from the Sichuan peppers), but it was so bland. Definitely big lack of deep flavor. Also, it doesn't automatically come with rice? We had to order a bowl separately and the rice itself was so mushy as if too much water was added and it was cooked too long (rice is supposed to be the basic dish that shouldn't fail). 3. Crab Roe Noodles: By far the best and ONLY dish that was well seasoned and was rich in roe and flavor. The waitress recommended to mix the crab roe sauce with the noodles and adding a little vinegar was optional depending on your preference. Delicious. 4. Pork Soup Dumpling: It had 3 stars on the menu and there was a designated chef hand rolling and filling it near the entrance of the restaurant so we ordered it expecting for it to be similar, if not the same, as Din Tai Fung, but we were soon disappointed yet again. The soup inside was flavorful, but the minced pork was too minced. It tasted like it was made for someone with no teeth. The dumpling wrapper was also hard on the top which was questionable as the restaurant was steaming it fresh. Dim Sum is known to have its chewy yet bouncy texture, but it was not up to xiaolongbao standards. Would I return again? Unfortunately, no. Just join the Din Tai Fung waitlist early, shop or walk for a while and eat there instead. read more

Came by the mall today after a quick dental appointment and wanted something quick and easy to have for lunch without having to wait in long lines or contemplating the menu too much. Passed by this place a few times and their sign outside caught my eye. Decided to come in and try out their Pork soup dumplings (XLB) and the Plum Tea drink. The wait staff were really nice and helpful with items they ahead on their menu. It's nice that they have the chefs that prepare the dumplings out on the floor to showcase their skills and preparations.

Tables were nice and spacious, with lots of seats. The food was the most delicious Chinese food I've eaten outside of China! 100/10 will absolutely be back again!

Ambience was great. Line was not long, so no complaints. We got a two seater and thay were things got interesting. We ordered the Mongolian Wagyu Beef Wrap Typhoon Shelter Shrimp, Pork and Scallion Dumpling, and Crab Meat Noodles. Mongolian Beef was alright but nothing to sneeze about. Beef was tastey and tender from the sizzling plate with a sweet glaze on it. The shrimp was bland together with the dumpling. Crab Meat Noodle was weird. Noodles were instant and the crab meat was average. Total together with Sprite and the chilled sour plum totaled to just over $106 as expected of a resto in Valley Fair. They have a promo of two chocolate banana dumlings when you show them a current review either on Yelp or Google, but for me, I did a Yelp review and showed it to them, just to be told to wait 6 mins. Waited 8 mins and nada. Walked out of that joint. This place was a bleh. I mean if I would spend that amount of money, I would like the meal to be superb and when the free stuff should come when it was supposed to then it should; however, it did not happened. Sad. read more

The Mongolian wagyu beef was really good. The texture of the beef was very tender. The seasoning was delicious, it packed a bit of heat. (4/5) Chinatown Chow Mein, was pretty good. The noodles had good texture, seasoning was on point. Though, not a lot of protein in the chow mein. Overall not bad (3.5/5). Cheesy waygu potstickers, the cheese overpowered the beef flavor. The sauce was pretty interesting, tasted like it had plum in it, a creamy plum sauce(?) All together the flavors did not go well with each other, there's too much conflicting flavors, the cheese overpowered the beef, the sauce clashes with the cheese. (1/5) read more

We selected the truffle fried rice, typhoon shrimp, and the lotus root - and the flavors were pretty good compared! It was a fun addition to put truffle flavors that spread throughout the fried rice providing a slightly different umami than your typical fried rice The shrimp was not too spicy for me and had a great crunch with the crispy garlic/bread crumbs. Adding the crisp to our fried rice was a great addition too The lotus root was flat out amazing. Be sure to grab this ! Highly addictive with their sweet and sour sauce. It's a bit spicier than the shrimp read more
