The best and most authentic Chinese food we've had in Tampa!! This place is amazing! And the Peking duck was absolutely phenomenal. If you're interested in Chinese food, you should definitely try this place! …
A truly wonderful experience of food and culture. Went here with a friend and had the Shrimp and Cashew- there was a lot and so good! Service was fast and they even threw in some Dim Sum and this wonderful dessert after our meal. Highly recommend!
🚨Hidden Gem Alert 🚨 nestled in the heart ♥️ of Tampa tucked away in between Armenia garden estates and the forest hills neighborhoods off Armenia ave comes an authentic and flavorful taste of Chinese cuisine served family style!!!!! Great …
Horrible experience overall. The chow fun was the only dish that came out hot and tasted fresh. Maybe ordering from the à la carte menu is the better option here, because the dim sum tasted old and overly salty. Personally, I would recommend Yummy House instead. The service was also nowhere near up to par. Our original server, the younger one with glasses, was nice, but after we finished eating, we sat around for quite a while before anyone noticed we were ready for boxes and the check. What really ruined the experience was what happened while we were paying. We paid by card and wrote “cash” on the tip line because I planned to leave a cash tip on the table once I finished boxing our food. Before I was even done, an older lady with short hair and glasses, who wasn’t even our server, cleared everything, took the check, walked away, then came back and demanded, “Where is my tip? Why you no tip? It say cash.” I explained that we weren’t even finished and that she had taken the check before I was done boxing everything. I was already planning to leave a cash tip, but having an employee come back and demand a tip from a customer, especially before we’ve even finished getting ready to leave is completely inappropriate and honestly unbelievable. Unfortunately, between the food quality and that interaction, I would not return nor recommend others.
We drove 45 minutes to eat here and it did not disappoint. The shrimp wonton soup was great and the broth was delicious all on its own. The sampler comes with so much variety and flavors. The food came out in no time and the server was attentive and answered any questions we had about the menu. Will definitely be back.
