“This place has been here forever...and I've been ordering take out/delivery from them for just as long. 3 words: TASTY, CONSISTENT, VALUE. The food had always been good, the quality/presentation of all dishes is very consistent, and you get your money's worth. Add quick in-house delivery...and you have a winner.“
“Great food and quick service. Came here with a hungry group, and our food came pretty quickly and hit the spot! A few of us split a scallion pancake, and it was quite good--flaky/not hard and had some nice layers. It was on the small side but still good for sharing. I tried the knife cut roast pork stir fry noodles and enjoyed the flavor of the meat and the slightly varied textures of the noodles! Very flavorful but not too rich. I enjoyed the veggies that gave a nice texture contrast with the noodles. I also sampled some of the house noodle bowl with the hand pulled noodles, which were also great! The broth was tasty, and there were a lot of varied meats and veggies included. With the solid food, fair prices, and good location, I'd definitely come here again!“
“Emei is one of the few Chinese Restaurants that has several gluten free options. My wife has celiac disease so this is very important and the servers here are knowledgeable and helpful about dietary restrictions. We started with the Cucumber and Garlic salad which is absolutely delicious. Then the main entree was house special fried rice with General Tsao's chicken. That's something nearly impossible to get gluten free. It was very good. The ambiance was fine nothing over-the-top. Special shoutout to Valerie, our server. She understood my wife's celiac seriously. Took her time explaining various menu options, etc. Professional and personable. Overall highly recommended.“
“Service and atmosphere: Very spacious with Chinese/Asian style of decoration. Service here is incredibly fast and the staffs are very friendly as well.(1) Scallion Pancake: Very thin and super crispy outside but pretty chewy inside, it went super well with Hoisin sauce.(2) Chicken in wine sauce: The chicken was cooked perfect but the flavor of this dish was way too salty for me. Would pair great with some white rice.(3) Crab meat & pork soup dumplings: Very decent! A dumpling itself is pretty bigger than other dumplings I’ve tried before. The way I have it is to poke a hole to taste the juice then get a little bit soy sauce mixed with vinegar and thin sliced ginger and take everything in one bite. Perfect.(4) Stir-fried Bok Choy: Pretty good but not too impressive to me. I wish there would be more garlic to it.(5) Shanghai Fried Udon: It was okay but not special enough for me to remember.(6) Pan fried crispy noodles with vegetables: I love this dish the most! Very saucy and flavorful and has a lot of mushrooms and veggies to it. However, you should eat this right when it comes out or else your noodles will get soggy.(7) Beef braised noodles: It was okay as well, not too special for me to remember. I wish it was spicier.Overall, the experience was worth it to try one of the very popular restaurants in Cherry Hill. Decent selection of Chinese dishes yet they taste quite too salty to my own liking.“
“Cool vibe, friendly service, I love the logo! We arrived as happy hour was changing over and quickly ordered. We found that our happy hour tacos we considerably less enjoyable than the ones we ordered after happy hour concluded. Fun spot, certainly would go before a show at Union Transfer.“
“This place is absolutely delicious! This is my second time here and I am still blown away with how good everything was. My favorite was the cilantro chicken, and it was the most tender and buttery pieces of chicken I've ever had. I really recommend this place and I can't wait to come back and try more. They have so many options here and everything I've had here was very good.“
“Really great. I had the Chongqing spicy broth, wagyu, head on prawns, scallops, and lamb as my meats and went crazy in the self serve area. Great quality meats and vegetable selection. Broth was good, service was good. I had to wait for about 1 hour because you cannot make a reservation for a 2 top, but it was well worth it. I left completely satisfied for 40 dollars plus tax, no uncharged. Highly recommended.“
“Over all a good experience! The appetizers are probably the best part of the dining experience.The entrees are a little too high price for the quantity of food given. Albeit it is a higher end in terms of establishment I don't feel the elegance dictates portion.The dumplings of all sorts are certainly the highlight along with the robust and bountifully sized sides.Vegetarian options: Quite a few vegy options considering the menu type“
“Great food at amazing prices - well worth your visit. One of my favorite appetizers is crab rangoon. I've tried a bunch of places and this is by far the best. They are full flavored, crispy, and the perfect pull-apart star shape.We tried both the hand drawn noodles in a soup and the shaved noodles in a stir fryThree treasures - amazing! The shrimp was perfectly cooked, plus you can add your own spice level with Sriracha or house made chili paste.It was hard to pick a favorite dish between the two, but luckily they are large portions so I'm bringing home leftovers!“
“I love the food here so much! I became a vegetarian during the pandemic because I realized how much environmental damage the meat industry causes and how they have no repercussions for any of the harm they cause. At first, it was hard! There’s few vegetarian restaurants out there, and those that have vegetarian options are normally not that good. Let’s face it. Most veggie-style versions of food aren’t as tasty when you’ve eaten meat your whole life. But let me tell you, this place breaks that stereotype. It was hard learning to cook again since I’ve mostly known how to prepare different meat-based dishes my entire life. (With few exceptions) But this place was truly inspiring in that way. I learned that anything you could want could be made without the use of animal products. It’s life-changing to taste the possibilities that well-seasoned and prepared food can bring. I have taken my family, friends, and coworkers here since 2020, and I will never not love this place. It even holds a special place in my heart for another reason. My husband and I ordered our wedding feast from them and it just added to the magic of that special day. ❤️“
“I tried the cheesesteak bao buns from Bing Bing this past weekend at the Flavors on the Avenue food festival in East Passyunk. These bao buns were the best thing that my friends and I tried at the festival by far! We unanimously agreed on that :) The filling was very well seasoned and the bao bun itself had the perfecttt texture of soft on the inside w/ a little crunch on the outside. I definitely plan to go to Bing Bing for a full meal to try more items off their menu, and I'll leave a review when I do!“
“This is my 2nd time getting take out since they opened. Everything we have had has been delicious and the service is on point. I’ve ordered sashimi, special rolls, chicken lomein, soup, all perfection. The sashimi is fresh and prepared and plated well. My favorite appetizer so far is the Hamachi Kiss. So refreshing and flavorful. So glad to finally have a decent sushi restaurant that also has a menu full of many Japanese and Chinese choices as well. Can’t wait for my next visit.“
“came in on a cold rainy day and was welcomed with some warm tea, ordered and all food was served promptly, everything was as expected, only change woukd be to have the pan fried dumplings more thoroughly fried. The ambiance is nice and relaxing.“
“Stopped by here for a late lunch with the family. It was close to our hotel (walking distance). We went during a time when it wasn't busy. We were welcomed by a staff member who seated us right away. Those who took our order and brought out the food were friendly and efficient. Overall, the food was good. The scallion pancakes were a little on the smaller size. The shrimp for the honey walnut dish was not what we had initially expected -- it was breaded, similar to that of Chinese chicken fingers -- but still good. The shrimp lo mein had an added taste which I was trying to identify. It reminded me of pork or some kind of meat -- but again, still good. The place was nice, spacious with high ceilings, and has a huge bar. It reminded me of a bar/lounge back in NYC, but it was a little dim. Overall, it was a decent place to get some Chinese food in the area. Also, I believe they will be moving locations soon.“
“Located in the heart of Philly, Sampan isn't just a restaurant; it's a happy hour haven where exquisite flavors meet exceptional value. As a used-to-be regular, I had the pleasure of exploring much of their happy hour menu, which boasts an array of dishes that consistently impress, from the kim chee fried rice to the pork bao buns, Kobe sliders, and potstickers. The drink selection is also fantastic, featuring unique cocktails that are both inventive and refreshing (recommend trying the daily cocktails!), each pairing flawlessly with the happy hour dishes. The ambiance of the place, combined with the quality of service and cuisine, makes it the best happy hour in Philadelphia in my opinion. Whether you're winding down from work or kicking off a night on the town, Sampan's happy hour is an unbeatable choice for quality, value, and a guaranteed good time.“
“My wife and I had reservations last night for our "date night" at Hong Kong Fusion. I must say our experience at this establishment was extremely gratifying. From the host, with his passionate discussion about the tea we were drinking, to the the delicious mouth watering food we enjoyed! Even the server was very accommodating. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you're looking for a true culinary experience!“
“I'd actually been to Dan Dan years ago, the last time I was in Philly, and decided to come back. Even years later, the noodles were still memorable, but this time I decided to try something else. They had a bunch of options for entrées, but I decided to go with Hot Dry Pot Dish (Chicken), since it came with a bunch of vegetables. I was very pleased with the portion size and the dish was delicious! I actually sat at the bar, since it was just me, but they had plenty of regular tables as well. The vibes were pretty relaxed, but I could see it being more lively on a Friday or Saturday night. I really enjoyed my meal here!“
“Uniquely seasoned food served promptly and pleasantly. Outdoor seating is available in a private booth design that's very 'public' since it's on the sidewalk. The interior design is remincent of authentic Chinese culture with wooden dragons carved in the wall. You can sit at the bar or sit in the main dining area. The culinary delights are streamed, gluten free or lightly fried. The chilli sauce/oil is a nice surprise it's fragrant with a hint of perfume of anise, cardamom and clove, amongst other herbs,all smothered in oils and Sichuan pepper. I highly recommend this spot.“
“Food was incredible, the atmosphere was lively and warm. I felt the service was super, helping me understand the menu and giving me tips with what I should order. This is the best Chinese food I've ever had, hands down. The winter melon tea is delectable btw“
“Some of the best orange chicken I’ve had in a long while, it’s on the sweeter side but was not mostly breading like most places. Got the Dan Dan and added veggies and egg and was delicious. Portions were good for the prices! Kids devoured their noodles. The staff were all friendly and attentive. Food came out fairly quick and was hot and fresh. Will be coming back in the future.Kid-friendliness: Provided disposable cups and plates for the toddler. Had high chairs.“
“Ray's is a hidden gem, offering an amazing variety of top-grade coffees and teas. I have been waiting for 20 years to try 100 percent Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee and found my cup waiting for me at Ray's. The staff is kind and welcoming and the tea and coffee cups beautiful. I'm looking forward to returning again and again.“
“We got the pork soup dumplings and crab and pork soup dumplings as well as fried rice cake with pork. The soup dumplings are great 10/10. The wrapper was nice and thin but did not rip once. There was a great wrapper to meat ratio and there was plenty of soup in the dumpling. The ratios of all components were perfectly correct and on top of that, it was delicious. Definitely better hot though. It started to be more mid as it cooled but if you eat fast, you'll have a great experience. I also appreciated that the pork only soup dumpling tasted differently from the pork and crab soup dumplings as some places put minimal amounts of crab such that they taste largely the same. Wonderful wonderful experience, would recommend. The fried rice cake was good, a little more chewy than I expected. Essentially ttbeokki with lo mein taste for those wondering. 7/10 Loved this place Note: cash only“
“Service was great and I had a delicious honey iced green tea. My pork belly ramen was good but not like "whoa this broth" good that you sometimes find. They had a whole bunch of dim sum offerings I didn't try but looked good so a generous 4 stars.“
“This place is a gem . Don’t know why it wasn’t busy as hell when we went there because the service was great, the food was easily the best Chinese I’ve had in the city, and the portions were at least twice the size of any other place I’ve been to. Expect family style and leftovers . Orange chicken , hot and sour soup , scallion ginger shrimp and salt and pepper tofu are all perfected versions of themselves.“
“My friends and I came to Philly for a day trip from MD! As soon as we reached the city, we came to Chuan Kee Skewer for lunch :)The service was really good with the workers greeting us with a smile and wishing us a happy lunar new year. The food also came out really fast!We ordered an assortment of skewers and non-skewer dishes, my favorite being the Taiwanese sausage and chicken wings! I also really loved the eggplant dish too with how soft and runny it is :) All of the food definitely hit the spot after the long travel! I’ll be sure to come back when I’m in the area!“
“a hidden gem in chinatown. we had juicy tender cuts of roasted duck and bbq pork and a flavorful chicken curry dish. they both came in generous servings. all the dishes were delicious and arrived steaming in a few minutes. service was great. the bathroom was pristine. the atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing. you also get a pot of oolong tea with your meals. everything was stellar. would def come back for more“
“We family moved to NJ for almost 2years, every weekend we have a dinner at Chef Zhang with my friend family. We all love Chef Zhang and definitely sure this is the best Chinese restaurant around south New Jersey.And servers all also good they didn’t disturb you when we ate food. Because I don’t like be disturbed during eating. Love Chef Zhang very much, Wish their business always good !“
“I've dined at this restaurant twice. I ordered the roast duck both times and found that the quality was much better the second time! This restaurant is a good option for folks who want authentic flavors WITHOUT the excessive grease and salt. Usually I don't care for the ambiance when dining in Chinatown because I'm just there for good food, but it's refreshing to get good service and enjoy a comfortable, clean, and less noisy dining experience overall while eating a tasty meal.“
“Authentic Cantonese food. I’m originally from HK and I’m picky with Chinese food in US. It’s the authentic Cantonese food that makes me think of my hometown. I just cried when I ate it as I miss home. Thank you for cooking with heart.“
“Soy milk, steamed buns, tofu curds, and rice dumplings are all authentic and delicious. The boss is very friendly. Go early in the morning when there are fewer people, sit in the shop and eat slowly, with the sun shining on your face, it is very comfortable.“
“Great little spot for a quick dine-in or takeout. Good food at good prices. I had the chili oil wontons, which were great, and a lunch special order of chicken pepper and onions. Additionally ordered a lychee jelly green tea which was awesome! All made for a nice lunch.“
“We ordered for the first time this weekend and it was absolutely fabulous! Our appetizers were a Chinese pizza and Crab Rangoon. The Chinese pizza was the best one we've ever had, but as you will quickly see from this review, EVERYTHING was the best we ever had. The pizza was perfectly done with the tastiest dipping sauce. The crab Rangoon was next level. It was homemade and so freaking delicious. Best ever! For dinner we shared the vegetable lomein and general tso shrimp. Both were fantastic and let me say, usually everywhere around here loads up on unnecessary oil, but this wasn't. The container was filled with shrimp. Worth every single penny. Since moving to the area we've tried so many places for these dishes and although some were good, nothing compared to fresh and homemade deliciousness of Yummy Yummy. The woman on the phone was so nice too, as well as the delivery driver. You guys get to take all of my money from now on. Thank you for everything. Now, I think this review made me hungry and I need to order for the Eagles game ?“
“It is hot pot buffet. very tasty and fresh. It is a good comibation of BBQ and hotpot. I have ordered BBQ beef, prawns, abalone(鲍鱼）for hot pot.。 I got mushroom, vegitable, beef, clams by myself. There is plenty of great food. I really like the delicous food and service. The waitress is very patient and pleasant. I will definitely dine there again. It is a hidden jem.“
“We have eaten here multiple times now and it has always been wonderful. Today, we stopped in to dine in and the restaurant was perfect. Nice dining area and spotless! The food was wonderful! what blows me away is how sweet the owners and workers are, they are the kindest people! This has and always will be our go-to place! If you haven’t been yet, go!“
“have ordered twice now from far east, love the wonton soup they make their own dumplings not those real thick wontons you see from everyone else, these are homemade light and delicate, my wife loved the chicken and string beans and she is tough to please , very fast delivery and food came in nice and hot, thank for the fast delivery and delicious food, i am glad we were within your delivery area, we just ordered the chicken and string beans again along with two qty of the delicious wonton soup“

“First time trying this place in back of the supermarket. Super friendly man at the counter. He described the foods as we ordered our favorites: Grilled Pork Banh Mi (Vietnamese baguette with grilled pork and vegetables)and bbq roast pork bun. Very flavorful and delicious. Definitely worth a try. Prices are reasonable.“
“Amazing roasted duck!!! Not very fatty. The sauce come with the duck is very good too. The dumplings soup was okay, not very juicy but acceptable for me. Fried rice is good too. Highly recommend this place if you want roasted duck !!! Service was good ?“
“Ordered the beef stewed with noodle soup and the beef and beef ball noodle soup and it was amazing. We got the egg soda and it was also delicious! I should’ve ordered the regular size instead of a large because the portion size was huge. Will definitely come back“
“Pretty good food, flavorful broth, good variety of meats. Attentive servers. Nice decor and atmosphere.The tray of sauces that stops by your table for 0.2 seconds, was also pretty cool. Though each table should have their own in my opinion.“
“I just recently started eating Chinese food again after a bad experience at a local restaurant. I am so impressed with this restaurant! Food is always fresh and delicious and the lady that takes your order is super kind ! Love coming here for dinner !“
“Love this place! The food is excellent and inexpensive for what you get, the service is great (they treat you like your family or their favorite customer), and to top it all off… they are a byob establishment. No need to pay inflated prices for your poison of choice.“
“Best halal Chinese take out in Philadelphia. They do have seating of four for 2 groups. They are also very clean and nice. Even the bathroom and the kitchen is clean. The best part is their food actually taste good and they have a good deal on the lunch special.Dietary restrictions: HalalParking: Usually parking is available but sometimes you might have to park far“
“Overall, really yummy appetizers and noodles - would definitely return! Service was prompt and no-nonsense. Cash only the night we were there, so maybe take some cash just in case! Cute little restaurant, easily accessible in downtown Philly.“
“Haven't dined in yet. However, take out has been awesome . We love their wings. We just had the 3 cup chicken( already a fav), and the bok choy with mushrooms is very good. We haven't been disappointed with any meal. Highly recommend“
“Tracy Chinese Restaurant is the best in that particular neighborhood. I've lived there almost my whole life and this is the cleanest and tastiest Chinese restaurant around Kensington.... but it's Kensington so you already should have any idea of what's outside of the “
“They always come correct. Never disappoint. I miss the young lady that use to work the register before the one that’s there now. I assume she went back to China. She always spoke of her home there. I really do miss her. She was the best. But the staff are always pleasant.“
“This place is a hidden gem. The food came out in less than 5 minutes so consider staggering your order unless you want to feast like a king. It was hands down the best chicken satay I’ve ever had, we had to order a second one after we finished all of the food. Beef Rendeng was fantastic as well. Only thing we ordered that I wouldn’t get again was the spare ribs which were overly fried. Overall this place is fantastic and a BYOB, will be going back very soon.“
“Probably the best Cantonese food you'll find in the center city Philly area. The taste to price ratio is excellently high. The barbecue meats are the best here. If you go, definitely order them at least. Service was fine, don't really care as the food is excellent. Standard restaurant atmosphere nothing noteworthy.“
“I lived in China for almost 7 years and this place is the real deal! I was missing authentic Chinese food so much and I finally found it here in The States! The place is small so be aware if you’re planning on bringing a big group. There’s only one toilet and it was a bit sketchy. Although that added to the authenticity of the atmosphere. It transported me back to China. It was surreal!Parking: If you come from out of town like us, you will need to pay for parking at the many public parking lots in this area. The one we found charged us $24 per 2 hours. It was very close to the restaurant, maybe 5 minutes walk. Very convenient. Stress free.“
“My boyfriend and I went to visit the restaurant two days ago and decided to do a review. as soon as we walked in, we were immediately greeted by the owner and another associate. The owner brought us to a quiet section and was very quick with grabbing us some waters to start off with. The server came over with some hot tea and asked us if we had any questions about the menu. The seats were comfortable and the restaurant was clean and comfortable. You can tell that the owner enjoys seeing the community in his restaurant as he made his rounds around the place. We did put a order in for steam dumplings and pleasantly surprised by not only the price but the taste of them. We also ordered the fried wings and they were hot and perfectly seasoned for dinner. We ordered the triple combination that came with fried rice and it was a perfect size to split between two adults, featured a beef shrimp and a chicken dish. We both enjoyed the beef and shrimp but the chicken with peas wasn't our favorite. The chicken surprisingly didn't have as much flavor as the rest of them.“
