Ping’s

so I went to this restaurant the other day and it was packed! I tried their tea, steamed shrimp dumplings, steamed sticky rice and chicken. Usually, I go for noodles or fried rice when I have Chinese, but this time, I decided to try their signature dishes, and they were amazing! The food was so fresh and tasty, and it felt so light. I'm definitely going back again. It was a great experience!

It was one of the first Dim Sum we had in New York City! Very reasonable and fulfilling and delicious! I highly recommend for the beginner of Dim Sum as it is easy to see what's in the food cart. You can easily point out if you do not speak Chinese.

Very good restaurant in the heart ❤️ of China Town. Staff is very attentive & food is fresh and very tasty! Can get a little crowded during peak times so take whatever table you can get. We had Kung Poa Shrimp & Cruchy Crab Vegetable Rice with Shumai Dim Sum appetizers. Would definitely return.

Was very hungry so I wanted some dim sum on 11am on a Saturday and Ping's had no wait time, so it was perfect. The interior was traditional and very Cantonese focused. There are no carts, but there is a menu that lists all of the dim sums you can order and it includes the picture. I got the fish stuffed jalapenos, shu mai, chicken feet, turnip cake, and chive dumplings. I also got the Pu Er Tea. The tea was really good and the food came out fast. I think everything on the menu was good, but not mind blowing. The turnip cake and the fish jalapeno dish were my favorite things on the menu. It was close to authentic dim sum but not entirely. The chicken feet in my opinion could have been soaked in more sauce. The shu mai was good but it was not great. The turnip cake was really great though, it was perfectly seasoned and well made, the sausages inside were delicious. The chive dumplings were good but I think they needed more chives, just a personal preference. Overall it was good food for a decent price.
