“We were lucky to be staying at a nearby hotel that made this place an easy walk to get to. They have a convenient check-in system. We ordered vegetable soup (hot in temperature, which was great), spicy wontons in a peanut sauce (my favorite of the dishes), the variety soup dumplings (I recommend you eat these first as they're not as tasty when lukewarm), and pork siu mai (I think I butchered the spelling... but also great! ). For two people, that was a little too much food : ) The complementary hot tea was also very good. The only thing keeping me from giving 5 stars is that we had to wait a while for someone to come and take our order and refill our water/ tea. It doesn't seem there's a system of how tables are covered, so it's more of a situation where you need to flag someone down. Otherwise, you're likely to wait a bit.“
“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 ? ? ?.“
“We came here with Mommy a while back. It was lunchtime. They had a line to enter the restaurant. Wow, that must be good. We ordered a whole Peking duck, pan-fried noodle seafood, sauteed pea leaves in garlic sauce, and fish filet with mushroom. I enjoyed the fish filet and sauteed pea leaves, which were the best dishes. Peking Duck was not bad and the seafood pan-fried noodle was so-so. However, Peking Duck was less crisp than the place I had in Chinatown. In short, everything was delightful! If we return, I really want to get that pea leaves again. This vegetable rock! Fish filets differed from what I had expected. One thing about Peking Duck is that they gave unlimited buns to eat with, but there wasn't much meat left because they filet the duck without leaving the bones for the customers. It's better to order a few filets of Peking duck rather than a whole duck. The place is a huge, two-floor restaurant. We had a table downstairs, which was pretty spacious from one table to the other. We'll return to try some other dishes and vegetables. Nice!“
“Visiting a Shanghai restaurant is like a journey for the senses, with all the aromas, flavors and textures blending together to create an unforgettable dining experience. The attention to detail was evident in both the dishes and the service, and we left feeling satisfied and ready for our next visit.“
“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“
“The food is delicious and the wait staff are the friendliest people I’ve ever met. But the best indicator of authentic and scrumptious Chinese food is to observe the ethnicity of your fellow diners: more than 75% were Chinese, every time we were there. The owners are gracious and kind.We’re definitely going back!!!“
“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.“

“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!“
“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.“
“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“
“Ordered in last night and the food was really great. Honestly I don't know how they were able to deliver the soup dumplings so hot. Those usually don't travel well, but these were hot and light & delicious. Chicken and eggplant were also hot and fresh and tasty. Special fried rice, scallion pancake and dumplings in peanut sauce were great as well. The best part was no MSG as I often get a headache from that. Friendly delivery person as well!“
“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.“
“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. : )“
“Always consistent and delicious food. The soup dumplings are always on point, but take out can lead to some of them popping open. It's best eating once they are ready. Cumin lamb, spicy beef noodle, minced pork, & items for kids like lomein & chicken and broccoli are always well made. There are many styles of Chinese cuisine and I feel like many bad reviews of this place are because lack of cooking and cuisine knowledge. The food is clean, consistent, and great. Don't trust people with a palate of a 5 year old“
“Great!!! Food!!! Definitely coming back with my friends~*pictures* shaghainese noodles w/ & w/o chicken. Sweet and sour, chicken and cashews. Angus beef fried dumpling, red bean cakes(hot), half and half tea.Vegetarian options: You can do vegetable version of dish. And there are strictly vegetable sides“
“The Red House restaurant in Flushing was unexpectedly an authentic Shanghai local cuisine restaurant. I ordered small Shaoxing white-cut chicken, old Shanghai smoked fish, and shredded eel in oil, and they all tasted good. Especially the old Shanghai smoked fish, which is freshly made and served hot with freshly soaked soy sauce. It is very fragrant and crispy. The portions are generous and the price is moderate. There is only one vegetable, sea greens, which is ridiculously expensive“
“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!“
