My husband and. I have been in town 6 days visiting out daughter from DC and she discovered this gem! We have already been twice and plan on taking my friend from Carey there on Friday! It is very difficult to find great soup dumplings, but these are excellent. They are the best we have had since New York. For those who don't know soup dumplings, they take longer to make, but worth the wait! We've had two orders both times. The dumplings have a broth in them which you sort of sip out. Hard to explain, but simply fabulous!
In addition, the orange chicken was delicious as was the Thai basil beef. The curry kick soup was very tasty - and spicy! The owner, Tommy, came out to see us both times and ask if there was anything we needed regarding explanation. Turns out he's from NY and we know the same soup dumplings restaurants.
It is nice that it is tucked around the corner, the ambiance is nice, and it isn't too noisy which is great if you want to actually have a conversation. The egg rolls which come with the lunch specials were also spectacular. I was really surprised to find such a good Asian restaurant in the Charlotte area! Will definitely be back.
