"The food presentation was amazing. It looked beautiful. It taste amazing. I cannot wait to order a whole bunch more stuff from here very clean amazing food."
"Everything is perfect at the Port Washington location; today I ordered from the Mineola location, and literally, the portion of chicken is less than half of what you get in Port Washington—and the same goes for the teriyaki sauce. There was so little that I was genuinely surprised and felt really let down, because I was expecting the usual order. I normally order from Port Washington since it's near my work, and this just wasn't what I expected."

"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.
$10.19
3. Steam Chicken Soup Dumpling(6) 3. 鸡肉小笼包(6)
Chicken soup dumplings are filled with seasoned chicken and rich broth gelatin. Once steamed, the gelatin melts into a flavorful soup inside the dumpling. With each bite, you get tender chicken filling and savory broth, creating a light yet layered taste. Served with shredded ginger and a bit of vinegar, the flavor becomes even more delicate and refreshing.
