“Our favorite soup dumplings restaurant in NJ! This place is crowded after 6pm so try to get there early! The soup dumplings are very juicy and tasty and their other entrees are very flavorful and fresh! Try their hot and sour soup, too! Yumm!!!“

“I came here last year and returned a couple of weeks ago. I had a fantastic experience both times!We didn't have a reservation so we had to wait for a bit, but despite being seated at a table away from the main area, the service was still very attentive and the food didn't take too long to come out.We got the pork soup dumplings, crab meat tofu stew, Yangzhou meatball, and nine-spice rabbit. Their soup dumplings are my favorite in Flushing now that the quality at other well-known restaurants has declined, with fairly thin skin and lots of soup. The other dish that surprised us in a good way was the rabbit, the flavor was subtle but very aromatic.We had wanted to try out their beggar's chicken but they told us they only make about a dozen a day and were sold out, so that's a perfect excuse for us to return soon!“
“Oh my goodness. A Chinese Restaurant that I can simply say good things about it. It's clean, charming, and the food is great but limited selections. If you enjoy a fast and simple lunch. This place is the right place for you. Have to warn you though. It can get very crowded in the weekends. People all over come to eat here. They're quite efficient and fast to serve. Like all things there is always a downside to things. I hate to say it but the restroom is some what a disappointment.Parking: If you're a local that lived here all your adult lives you know how hard parking can be not only in Flushing but it's just like that in the metro of NYC. Hate it or love it it is what it is. Ditch the car if you do not want a headache or pay the price. Simply put.“
“as you can see — we really dug into the delicious food at nan xiang express. what a great find! after a long night of research and dancing we were grateful for what felt like an oasis in the vast williamsburg desert. the food was great and the atmosphere lent itself to great conversation. five stars — and if i could, six!“
“Came here on a whim after having a hard time deciding on a place to eat. Best decision ever as everything we ordered was delicious. The service here is great too, they train the staff here well. This spot is now a must visit whenever im in nyc. Go to orders are the Peking duck with the salt and pepper duck bones, preserved ham fried rice and szechuan string beans. Those three dishes are ? ? ?.“
“Great prices and the broth in the soup dumplings had an incredible depth of flavor. We also really enjoyed the Sesame ball with red bean, which was hot and fresh. The red bean paste had good flavor, unlike many of the others I have tried in the past. Will definitely be back.“
“Slightly hard to write this review as I arrived a bit late to the meal. I went here months upon months ago. Not knowing that this was part of Dun Huang, I thought I went to the wrong restaurant but it turned out it was one and the same which was surprising. I was here with a group of nine others. As I arrived a bit late, the soup dumplings had already been there a while but they were still of very good quality. My favorite of the night was the Salted Egg Yolk & Shrimp Stir-Fried Rice Cakes. The texture of the rice cakes were perfect and the egg yolk complimented it well. I also liked the Dry Fried Shredded Eel & Chives. I also would have preferred them less shredded as I couldn't taste much of the eel texture but the sauce was nice and the blend with the chives added some good depth. The Fried Dough Twist Spicy Chicken or Laziji with Mahua was also surprisingly spicy for a restaurant which is primarily Shanghainese now so I guess they still have some influence from the old Dun Huang. I've had it before with these dough twists from the excellent Peppercorn Station and these rivaled that place even though the chicken there was a bit pricier but then again there was larger pieces of chicken in the latter. The Fish Fillets in Sour Cabbage Soup was also pretty solid as well as the Grilled Lamb Kebabs. You can essentially see Andie's review for the rest of my thoughts as they essentially reiterate hers. Yes it was too hot inside and as I was rushing to get there, I got warmer than most but oh well. Would go back but maybe go during the fall or winter if the AC isn't fixed yet. Mid 4“

“Shoutout to Nan Xiang Express for their friendliest crew! The staff here goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome! The pan-fried pork buns are juicy and crispy, while the soup dumplings burst with soupy goodness. We will definitely come back.“

“Would ideally give 4.5 stars but since that’s not an option, give them 5.Ordered 4 fried pork buns. Delicious.Service: meh. They were busy (Monday lunch hour) and first waitress was brusque and said we’re busy. Manager(?) came by and took our order with no issues.Place looks clean and well run except for our first impression. The hostess was very busy.“
“Everything was perfect; food service and atmosphere. And less than $15 for a delicious vegetarian lunch! I asked the waiter if they could add some steamed tofu to the veggies, which they did for no additional charge! My friend had a beer, so hers was a bit more.“
“This place is amazing. All the food is absolutely delicious and the staff is wonderful and welcoming. It's a great place to bring kids, family and friends toy won't be disappointed. Besides that this place is very affordable and budget friendly. I can recommend this all and everyone I know. Thank you Lucky for providing us with delicious food and amazing service. I look forward for the next meal and dinning.“

“This place is TAKE OUT only. We ordered cucumber with garlic sauce, beef noodle soup and crab meat xiao long boa. Cucumber had good better flavor towards the bottom where it was marinated. Overall very good and refreshing. Beef noodle soup was okay. Beef was a mixture of tender and dry. Good flavor though. Xiao long baos are a mouthful. They do have juice. Skin is handmade which give it a good texture. It was a little too thick. If you like that then this is your spot. If you live near by, I definitely recommend!“
“Dumplings are pretty good here. They have so many different kinds of dumplings and so many different varieties of colors which makes it kinda fun and pretty to see. The ambience is pretty cool and somewhere I would like to visit again. The service is pretty good but I also want to emphasize that it does get busy sometimes so I guess be prepared and maybe find an off time to go?... just a suggestion lol“
“The servers are quick, consistent, and attentive. The soup dumplings at this location are so good. As are their scallion pancakes. Their spicy beef soup is good there and even reheated the next day at home. My kids love eating here. The bathrooms are clean. The place is clean. And we have had great experiences here. I would just double check their opening time on Sundays. I believe Google has it as 1030 but I think its actually at 11.“
“Noodles were pretty good, wraps are good, and nice to be able to mix and match with some bao or veggies. The interior was fairly nice. I dont remember exactly what happened but i wished i had more water, wasnt sure if they were supposed to refill it.Not the most amazing food ever but its a good stop while shopping or checking out the area. Probably not a regular favorite of the localsVegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options clearly labeled“
“Delicious food!!! Not a long wait for the order. They always offer free bun or dumplings as a starter. Everything is very fresh and super delicious. I have lots of favorite dishes there. I am always trying to get something new. Real Asian food. They take cash only, but you can pay by Zelle or Venmo as well. Highly recommended.“
“Juan was our bartender and server and delivered exceptional service!! Very attentive and sweet. The ambiance of the place is lovely , right next to our hotel. We already ate dinner so had some light snacks here and a couple of beers and a cocktail. When my cocktail was a little too sweet , he added a little whisky to balance the taste. Cold and windy night in New York on ling island but a little visit here was a good night cap!“

“If you are checking out the New World Mall Food Court you absolutely MUST try Yozi. The food quality is incredible, In my opinion their soup dumplings are the best in the area, Their sheppard purse won ton soup is also a standout, And somehow only cost $6 ???? The prices here almost don't make sense.The prices are about half what you would expect them to be, Honestly I don't really know how they do it. Their tofu noodle soup is HUGE! ..And somehow its only $5.Inflation is no match for Yozi!If you love authentic Chinese food at an absolutely unbeatable prices you simply cannot do better than Yozi. : )“
“This is my family’s go to place for soup dumplings in Queens without having to go into Flushing. You can’t go wrong with the soup dumplings!We also ordered rice cakes, crispy chicken and the pan fried soup buns on our last visit and while the rice cakes were delicious, I wouldn’t order the chicken or pan fried buns again. Chicken had no flavor and the buns had a very thick outside with not enough flavor inside.Service is always great and if you pay in cash for a $35+ check, you get one order of soup dumplings free. 4 stars for other menu items but def 5 stars for the soup dumplings!“
“This place is really a hole in the wall. Hard to find parking so driving is hard. However if you do happen to get here and able to get a seat or place an order for take out I will need to say that the food is pretty good in general. Now I am Shanghainese and go to Shanghai often and always nice to be able to eat Shanghainese food that actually tastes good. This place makes some pretty authentic foods from Shanghai and being family owned and straight from Shanghai the food has great taste for what I have ordered. The fatty pork belly was really good. I had the small fried pork bun and this was for sure one of the better that I had. Still hard to compare this to Shanghai directly and it doesn't seem that anyone from other then being in Shanghai directly can duplicate it. Still the bun is a lot thinner then other places and very good flavor. I also had the scallion dry noodle and this was really good. Simple dish but just tasty. Had the little and big wonton soup and the soup base was really good and they make some very good wontons. Friendly owner and very nice service. Give them a try for good Shanghainese food!“
