Helen's Asian Kitchen

Authentic, wholesome flavors - a hidden gem for chinese food in Columbus! We came on a quiet Sunday evening and ordered the 小笼包, 干锅花菜， and 红烧肉 and they were simply delicious!! Full of flavor, not too salty, with rich spices and perfectly cooked veggies, and very generous portions. Very thoughtful and attentive service as well. Highly recommend!

We used to go there a lot. Decided to try it tonight again… ordered a side of rice & found a baby roach in it. 🙈 Called in and told them & they said they’ll talk to the kitchen. It’s a big health violation. Makes me sad because their food used to be so good! Hope they get this problem taken care of asap!

Decent: soup dumplings/Xiao long bao Ok: wontons in spicy sauce,Helen's dumplings, turnip cake Meh: spring roll, lotus leaf wrapped sticky rice (nuo mi ji), shao mai/sui mai, pork bun No recommendations here but it was all passable. I guess I should have lowered my expectation for being out in the Midwest, nothing tastes quite the way I expect dim sum to taste. Soup dumplings were not soupy but tasted ok The nou mi ji were REALLY small and didn't actually have the chicken filling in the center, just a few pieces of dried shrimp and shiitakes mixed in Pork bun was a little falling apart Helen's pork dumplings were pretty bland. The ones in spicy sauce were maybe a 2.5/10 spicy

Please don't waste your time coming here.... It's dark and dingy and the food matches the atmosphere.... We ordered shrimp spring rolls that were mushy and fried to death, after eating one, I opened it and saw there wasn't a piece of shrimp in sight but mushrooms, after letting the waitress know that we know there's no shrimp in them she stood there with the dumbest look on her face, she then grabbed the receipt and walked off and charged us for the shrimp spring rolls... I refused to pay for the shrimp rolls and she stated "but you ate one!!!".... Laughable..... The shrimp lo mein was terrible, the orange chicken was burnt and the breading was thick.... If I could give them 0 stars I would...

Being from Houston, TX, and it being a giant melting pot and huge Chinatown, I’m pretty picky about my Chinese/Asian food. Finally, I’ve found a restaurant that’s up to par with the food back home! We got the Sesame Chicken (left), Salt & Pepper Squid (middle) and the Beef Chow Fun (right). The Sesame Chicken had the right amount of crunch with the fried breading. The sauce was a little thick but still really good. The Salt & Pepper Squid, an all time favorite of mine, was salty, savory and crunchy. The Beef Chow Fun was flavorful and the pieces of beef in it were a great touch. There was only one other family in the restaurant since we came an hour before closing but the staff male member was incredibly fast and efficient with getting us seated, delivering waters right away and bringing our food out fast. Definitely found my new go-to Chinese restaurant for dine-in and to-go!
