Serving authentic dumplings and classic Chinese dishes in Elm Grove
Quite, small, clean, cozy atmosphere. Staff was quick. Food, sub par. Sever lack of salt and pepper. Everything I ordered was meh. The fried rice was not fried rice. Very mushy, the chicken was rubbery. I would go if someone else paid. Price, decent with the exception of the drinks. $3.50 for the equivalent of a small soda. That was ridiculous
The food was great! The decor is a little dated, but it's clean. Not the most traditional bar drinks (leaving ice in the Cosmo), but the sake was good and the prices were reasonable. I am sure we will go back.
I’ve been here twice now and ordered different things each time. This time around, I got a few other things to try. I started with the marinated beef, which came with a side of hoisin, I believe. The waitress let me know of a special going on with a soup. I can’t remember the name, but it was delicious. I don’t see it on a menu, so I believe it was limited time. It was a tasty broth with some dumplings. Very good. I got a roll with crab, avocado, cream cheese, eel sauce, and shrimp tempura for sushi. It’s not on the online menu but on the physical one. Lastly, I got the stir-fried noodle with shrimp for my entree. I love thin rice noodles, so I had to try them here. Delicious! Staff is always kind and food comes out quick.
The Takoyaki was delicious; it was my first time eating anything like it. I wish there were more of the sauce that goes with it so I could dunk the balls in it. The soup and tempura were terrific. When you enter the restaurant, the floor has this unique aquarium effect.
Service was excellent! We were seated right away. We ordered the Xiao Long Bao, very good, juicy. The skin/shell was thicker than what I expected. Wonton soup portion was huge. I recommend asking for extra bowls so you can share. Kani salad I thought was plain, too much mayo. But good. I would not order it again. Hamachi Kama was very tasty! Be prepared to wait for a little longer for it to be ready. We would come back and would recommend.
