Reviews
- crude_finchThe soup dumplings were unreal — skin so thin, tons of filling, and when you bite in the hot juice just bursts out. You can tell the dough is handmade, it has that real layered chew to it. The Shengzhou rice cake soup was a sleeper hit, super soft and packed with flavor, the broth was rich and there was so much stuff in it, honestly so comforting. Our server was really sweet too, took her time when we were ordering and gave us some good suggestions. The fried pork cutlet was crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and that chili soy sauce on the side was a great touch. Everything was on the salty side though, not gonna lie, but if you're into bold flavors you'll be all over it.
