They have a great selection of vegan and vegetarian options marked clearly on the menu. I ordered a vegetarian dim sum platter and a hot and sour soup, which was enough for me. The rest of the table ordered some family style dishes and a few of us split a bottle of soju. The dim sum stuck together and was quite glutinous, but had really good fillings. The soup had great flavor. Everything was delicious and affordable, except the soju which was a little high at $15 for a small bottle. Excellent service as the staff and servers are always around and on standby. I really enjoyed this restaurant and would come back here in a heartbeat.

Get the "20 mini dumplings + drink of your choice". Seriously, I'm getting hungry just writing this review. Food: I ordered the 20 mini dumplings and drink combo, substituting the soda option for taro boba (+$4), totaling around $18 after tax! The dumplings are mini, but they are filled with so much flavor it's unbelievable. They each have a bit of soup in them that is so flavorful and not salty. There is also a slight bit of crispiness on the outside of each dumpling before the inside just melts in your mouth. It's unbelievably good. The taro boba is also well done. It's not too sweet, and the boba pearls are a unique level of like not that chewy and feel almost like popping boba?! Service: Friendly service! My friend and I did to-go, but the staff were all quite friendly. There is also a kiosk to order from if in a rush. Ambiance: It's a very clean restaurant and spacious. However, since there were so many people waiting for the viral item, we formed essentially a crowd outside the steps. The wait took about half an hour, and then my friend and I walked just down a couple of blocks to the Brooklyn Heights promenade, which has the most stunning view of the Manhattan skyline.

We had the pork XLB, chicken feet, pork & vegetable wontons with spicy peanut sauce, noodles with scallion and peanut butter sauce, beef lo mein and the beef ribs. Everything was delicious! The highlights of our meal were the pork XLB and the beef ribs. The pork XLB were made fresh to order and they were flavorful and juicy! Definitely on my list of best XLB I have ever had. The beef ribs were also delicious! They torched it table side which definitely added a nice touch! Considering how busy they were, the service was immaculate. They were also very attentive to details since we had a kid with allergies. We will definitely be coming back soon.

We also loved the mixed mushrooms with tofu, double egg yolk fried rice, and the biggest surprise, the Michelin Guide-recommended pumpkin curry with oxtail--rich, tender, and absolutely delicious.

That could've been because of a mix of reasons (nor'easter, late arrival, small party, holiday, etc.). I think they trend on social media, so you'll see a mix of people dining. One of my favorite places because it's close, they have chrysanthemum tea, which I feel many places don't have anymore, they serve my favorite variation of the chive dumpling, they have a lot of newer or unique dishes, + they're on the cheaper end. They're also open for dinner + have a few good dishes on that menu too. *recommended What I Ordered: - chrysanthemum tea*: light, sweet, approachable + refreshing - chive dumplings*: comes in many variations, this place is pan fried with a wonton skin- my fav! - pork dumpling (siu mai): a classic, more meaty here + no(?) shrimp mixed in, not my fav version - shrimp ball w mushroom: new dish (for me), very soft + airy - fried shrimp in red rice roll*: also a unique dish, crispy + soft, so good when it's fresh! - custard bun: cute pig decor, my fav filling for a bun, sweet but not too much - turnip cake: not good, too doughy + the oyster sauce is too salty - shrimp stuffed eggplant: same shrimp mix as the balls?, too oily - egg custard bread bowl: new dish (for me), lightly sweet filling w sesame aroma, I didn't care for the bread

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.

Soup dumplings are her specialty, and living in North Jersey, we've had our fair share of some really good ones.

As we were walking in, another customer was heading out and enthusiastically blurted, "This place SLAPS!" Well, that definitely set the bar pretty high. Turns out, he wasn't lying. THIS PLACE SLAPS! We started with two orders of soup dumplings, one with crab and one without. Both were fantastic. Hot, juicy, flavorful, and exactly what you want from a great soup dumpling. The Dumpling Gang representative at our table definitely approved. Next up was the house fried rice and pan fried noodles with chicken. Both were delicious and rounded out the meal perfectly. Pair everything with a couple of cold Asian beers and you've got yourself one seriously satisfying Sunday meal. Beyond the food, the wait staff was awesome. Friendly, attentive, and welcoming without hovering. The restaurant itself has a comfortable, inviting atmosphere that makes you want to hang out and keep ordering. Great dumplings, great food, cold beers, excellent service, and a cool atmosphere. What more do you need? The Dumpling Gang gives Nan Xiang St. Marks its official stamp of approval. We loved it and will absolutely be back!

What an experience beyond your wildest dream to occur during NYC Restaurant Week accompanied with a complimentary beverage in 2025, 2026, and hopefully again in 2027. Mito's food consistency continues to be unmatched with their three course restaurant week lunch. In 2026, the Mito lunch menu: - Complimentary passion fruit Mojito (non-alcoholic) - had an interesting carbonated taste with a mojito sensation on the palette. Difficult to explain this non-alcoholic mojito taste, which was a first time experience. In 2025's NYC Restaurant Week, Mito had the most delightful and perfectly paired red wine also complimentary with my restaurant week three course lunch menu. - In 2026, tried a different appetizer, Shrimp Shumai 8pcs accompanied with sweet soy sauce - was worth the food leap! The shrimp was succulent encased in a melt in your mouth wrap. This was my first time tasting shumai because I usually would have shrimp dumplings from a Chinatown restaurant in Lower Manhattan. Fortunately, shumai was an elevated taste of simple shrimp goodness much better than shrimp dumplings. By the time I remembered a food picture, four shrimp shumai were already gone and digested in pure delight. - Crispy Red Snapper 5pcs caramelized soy sauce, rice wine vinaigrette - was paired with fried rice as each crispy red snapper filet had scallion & caramelized sauce. Each delicious snapper bite was accompanied with a sampling of fried rice. However, the fried rice finished before the red snapper was all gone. Each bite of crispy snapper was better than the last bite. - Waffle Sandwich Ice Cream 4 pcs, choice of matcha - the difficulty was choosing your hand or utensils to cut into this matcha ice cream waffle goodness. The waffle enclosed creamy matcha ice cream leaving you craving for more. Let it be known, Mito in Fort Greene, Brooklyn continues to have a restaurant week three course food experience with a FABULOUS price point including a complimentary drink that is worth returning to year after year! Therefore, I am patiently waiting for 2027 and beyond NYC Restaurant Week at Mito.
