"I recently ordered from Mogu Modern Chinese Kitchen through DoorDash for the first time, and I’m so glad I did. I tried the sauté infusion with shrimp and mixed vegetables, prepared mildly spicy with garlic, ginger, and scallions—no added salt. I was honestly surprised at how clean, fresh, and crisp everything tasted, especially without the salt. It was full of flavor and absolutely delicious. The meal came with a side of white rice, and I also ordered a General Tso’s sauce on the side for light dipping, which added a nice mild kick. Everything paired perfectly together. As someone following a low sodium and low potassium diet, it can be challenging to find meals that fit my needs and still taste great—but this one truly delivered. The presentation was beautiful as well, and I’ll be including a photo because it looked as good as it tasted. I had never ordered from here before and just happened to come across it on DoorDash, but I’m so happy I gave it a try. I will definitely be orde"
"The food in the farmingdale location is better, second time ordering from east meadow and the food isn't fresh and there was barely any sauce on the chicken when I ordered extra. Staff is always friendly though and place looks clean on entry."

"The poké bowl is 10/10, the ingredients are fresh and the portion size is very good. The thai iced tea is light and flavorful, not super creamy, and the tapioca pearls are very soft and chewy."
"the only thing that was good was the broth and noodles. and the eggs (pork) and fishcake were Horrible. The eggs were like rancid as if they left it in the brown liquid for days?? NOT fresh at all and it was like old. The texture and taste was REALLY bad. I regret spending extra to add it on. I wish I could have a refund for that.. Ramen Noodle. I haven't even got to try my other order gyudon yet BC they're really big portains both which is the plus side if thats helpful."

"Very delicious food. Excellent customer service. When the door dasher failed to deliver my food, the supervisor took care of my order and made sure we got it. I really appreciate their services. They are definitely the place to go and get excellent quality food . All the food is fresh and the food is portioned packaged properly."
"Giving it 5 stars bc I have been here in person once before and love it. Takeout is good, and I haven't tried these dishes before. The braised beef was melt in your mouth, the broth was so flavorful but the noodles were way too mushy. I know they are very fresh but I don't think they travel well. The Bokchoy was cooked perfect. The spicy peanut dumplings are SO good! Flavorful inside & out! Loved the sauce! Has a tiny kick but I love spicy and could even add more chili oil to it. All in all, great but probably wouldn't order the soup again. Oh & the portions are great!"

"I was craving a late night meal so I ordered some food with my coworkers. The MFC Individual Combo came with 5 soy garlic tenders and regular fries. One of my coworkers got the same meal and another got the Kimchi Vegetable Dumplings. Everyone, including myself was very happy with the food! I've always loved their fries because they are textured with a good amount of filling and if you're not sure which sauce to get for the chicken, Soy Garlic is a safe and delicious choice! The amount is perfect, still pretty hot at delivery and fresh. The chicken is nice and moist, not oily despite being fried. My other coworker said the Kimchi Vegetable Dumplings did start kicking in after awhile but were still delicious. No complaints whatsoever!"

"Amazing soup dumplings and the 4. Pan Fried Pork Dumpling(6) 4.锅贴-猪肉 (6) are legit the best fried dumplings I've ever had."
"I liked the 02. Steam Crab Meat & Pork Soup Dumpling (6) 02.蟹粉小笼包 (6) and 23. Hot Sour Soup 23. 酸辣汤! It was good, the food came in VERY nice insulated bags. I was worried about the heat but they have it covered with the insulat bags. "
1. Steam Pork Soup Dumpling (6) 1. 鲜猪肉小笼包-(6个)
Xiao long bao may specifically refer to a kind of soup dumpling, the tangbao (Chinese: 汤包) of Jiangnan cuisine. Originated in Changzhou, Jiangsu province, by Wan Hua Tea House in the years of Daoguang Emperor (1820 to 1850). Xiaolongbao evolved from the guantangbao (soup-filled dumplings/buns) from Kaifeng, Henan province, the capital city of Northern Song Dynasty (AD 960–1127). Xiaolongbao are traditionally filled with pork. More modern innovations include other meats, seafood, shrimp, crab meat, and vegetarian fillings. Soup dumplings are created by wrapping solid meat aspic inside the skin alongside the meat filling. Heat from steaming then melts the gelatin-gelled aspic into soup.

3. Steam Chicken Soup Dumpling(6) 3. 鸡肉小笼包(6)

"I got the Tonkotsu Ramen which was cleverly packaged separately so the ramen isn't sitting in the soup and getting soggy. The soup is very flavorful and the meat was good. The Gyoza was also good (pork) and comes with 6 pieces. The Taro Ice Milk Tea was delicious as well. The boba was actually sweet and chewy. I was surprised about the sweetness because usually boba isn't flavored (which I don't like). Overall, very happy with my order!"
