Super quick and well deserved hype. The price is unbeatable, and especially for the quality of the food. I tried the peanut noodles with the pork and chive dumplings. The peanut noodles were $3, and were coated in a delicious sauce, not too peanut-y. The dumplings were so juicy, and well balanced. This place is packed, and also sell frozen dumplings, if you’d like to have them after hours. Our order came out within minutes. Note that seating is limited, and you might have to share a table with others, but everyone including customers are friendly and welcoming to sit with. When you enter, order at the counter in the back, then find a table. They call your order number out when it’s ready, with a tray and everything. Must eat in Chinatown! Total was $7.50 all in, cash only.

Indeed one of the great places to enjoy affordable food. I'm here at weekday lunch time around 1230pm, not as crowded but tables were filled quickly. Order taking is easy, the menu is straight forward. Tried their noodles with peanut sauce, 6 piece pork and chives dumplings, 6 piece fish ball soup. All for just $9, taste delicious. Noodles texture was just nice, peanut sauce added a great touch, paired it with chilis, heavenly awesome. Dumplings are unbeatable, food preparation is fast. Do drop by if you around Chinatown.

I love their peanut sauce noodles and the wonton soup. Their pork and chives dumplings are also delicious. Price is super cheap! The space is small though and you find your own seats. They’re pretty busy most of the time but the line moves fast. It is a cash only place.

Not a bad way to spend $9. There was a line that went quite fast. Order and pay first and they’ll call out your number when it’s ready. Noodles and dumplings were great. I’d skip the wonton soup.

Located in Chinatown, this place is regarded as one of the best in the area for Chinese food. I wanted to try their dumplings and ordered chicken and mushroom dumplings along with veg soup. The dumplings were piping hot and were filling, the chicken in it was properly cooked and the minced mushroom didn't make me realize that they had added it in the mixture. Top it up with a bit of hot sauce and chilli oil, it tasted good. The soup was amazing too! I have always liked the soup at Asian restaurants, it's always good to have them. The noodles were really soft and the veggies in it were boiled well. The broth was well.. you know adjust according to our taste by adding the spice and it turned out to be good! Overall it felt good. It's a cash only place and not much of an ambiance. The service was pretty good, the servers were taking the orders till they shut the restaurant whereas they also let the patrons patiently have their food.

The food at this place is just amazing. Peanut butter noodles, dumplings, pork bun and won ton soup are the dishes I tried and everything was delicious. (especially the dumplings and the noodles). The best thing is definitely the price! We ate 4 people for 30 dollars and we almost couldn't finish the amount of food we bought. Most dishes are $3, while the most expensive ones are $5.50, which is impossible in Manhattan for such quality. It is a small place, with some tables, they attend you quickly and give the food in seconds.

Let me honest with this place. Taste is average but price is really cheap to grab a convincible choice in china town NYC. Owner are kind and are warm welcoming but table is too dirty to recommend for people who is sensitive to sanity issue. In overall, if you’re living or working close to the China town - this place is good for finishing a meal easily but definitely not a place for visitor who is willing to come to this far to grab this level of quality foods.

This place has no right to be as good as it is! Pork and cabbage dumplings and peanut sauce noodles are superb. The food is absolutely delicious and unbelievably cheap. Also, the food is pretty authentic. The service is fast, but the other aspects aren’t as good: plastic plates, shared sauces and often overfilled trashcan. Definitely tasty and definitely worth the price though.
