Super impressed with this place! The best Chinese food I've ever had in Iowa City. Mind you, I really don't like Americanized Chinese food. But this wasn't that, hence why I probably liked it. We had the cabbage, which was absolutely delicious, along with the mapo tofu, shrimp dumpling, sticky rice in a lotus leaf, and rice noodles with chicken. We wanted to get the eggplant, but unfortunately it was out.

TLDR: Behold, Iowa City gets dim sum. This spot isn't really an eat in restaurant, I would get it to go or delivery. Order some dim sum either through your favorite food delivery service. They have most of your classics such as shu mei and shrimp dumplings. I really wish they had the beef crepe in stock when I ordered but unfortunately they were out. I also tried their fried rice which was also great. The food overall is good, but won't meet quality standards of a Chinatown in...read full review

The food here is absolutely delicious! You can only carry-out, as there is barely seating and no atmosphere at all. They are squished into an unappealing space. Also, don't expect to them have every menu item available. But no worries, everything is phenomenal. Definitely worth the visit if you're looking for authentic Asian food.
