If you’re in Little Neck and craving an authentic taste of Taiwan and Shanghai, this restaurant is a must-visit. The soup dumplings alone are worth the trip – each one bursts with a savory broth and tender filling, leaving you wanting more.

Good food but cash only. Parking van get crowded often. Get the 10 percent coupon to reduce cost. Food is fresh, hit, and delicious almost all the time. Eggplant and noodles and of course the soup dumplings are always on point. It’s a local winner to enjoy. Go eat some today.

Delicious soup dumplings! Delicious flavor to these dumplings, but I do wish the skin was thinner. The pan fried dumplings were a bit sweet on the filling which was odd. Everything else we ordered was very good. Something I always gave to try at restaurants is fried calamari and this one did not disappoint. The squid looked spongelike with extra cuts that made the fry crispier – I have not seen this done before! The stir fried rice cakes were kind of chewy almost as if they have not been pre-soaked long enough. Pea shoots were okay, it did have some tough parts that haven’t been removed during prep. Overall, an okay meal, just not my favorite Shanghainese restaurant.

Amazing restaurant. We had the sweet and sour crispy whole fish. It was outstanding. Tried the Udon noodles with bok choy and pork, and I loved it. My wife didn’t like the texture of the noodles, but I loved it. You could taste the wok hei in the dish. Wonderful. Spring rolls were not that great. A little greasy. Dipping sauce was very good though.

Great soup Dumplings … The real reason to venture here. That is if you’re avoiding the trek to Flushing. Their noodle and Rice dishes are good, passable for the value. The main entrees while pricier are worth trying, sauteed string beans are excellent. I recommend the beef and scallion pancakes as well. Cash only!! And they have both indoor and outdoor parking. Rare in this hood.

I’ll start by saying the best soup dumplings! The lunch special I ordered was awefiul. Braised short ribs were chopped meat with a very strong seasoning that I didn’t like. When I told the waiter his response was that’s what you ordered. I didn’t say it wasn’t but I didn’t like it. I was willing to pay for another order but he never came back to give me the option. Not going back there again

Be advised that this particular restaurant exclusively accepts cash payments. It would be helpful if they informed customers of this policy prior to seating them. Unfortunately, we were not aware and had to make a trip to an ATM to withdraw cash. Moreover, the prices are relatively high considering that it is a cash-only establishment. While the food was decent, the inconvenience of the payment method detracted from the overall dining experience.

When you’re In Nassau, take the time to find Chinese food…it’s so much better! “Little Dumpling” fits the bill….all the regular favorites, plus plenty of authentic Chinese. The favorite among other reviews seems to be the “Soup Dumplings”…and with good reason- delicious (though, surprisingly, they took 20 minutes to prepare!!) our meals were plentiful ( we ate them all, here). A wonderful place to stop, as we did on a Sunday afternoon, though I imagine at any time you would enjoy the fare!

I only got soup dumpling very tasty. Should get a bowel with soup dumpling not a plate waiters are extremely tentitive to your plate and food and drink. Almost a little too much. They come by our table at least 12-15 timesthe wait staff needs to let the customers eat without constantly being interrupted. Place was busy. Comfortable seating. Would go back. For take out next time. I hope owner reads this to understand that behavior may turn people away from comeing back.
