The soup dumplings are yummy and authentic, not quite as good as Ding Tai Fung, but only because of the skins. Everything else on the menu was underwhelming in flavor. The spicy noodle soup at least had good ma la heat, but was lacking in depth of flavor. The beef itself was done very well, succulent and fork tender, and the noodles had a nice chew to them. I had wanted to try the shanghai style salmon, but they didn't have any that day. The rest of the noodle dishes, including the rice cakes, were flat in flavor and quite disappointing. I'd say go early to avoid the wait on the weekend and just get a few orders of dumplings, then go over to Li Wah for dim sum!
