the buffet is not available on the weekends so i did not get a chance to try that. however pork congee and fried bread stick were my favorite. this brought back my childhood memory :) dim sum was good too. i ordered roasted duck noodle to go and it was still good even when i reheated it the next day.

Update Nov 2024, more than 2 years after last post UPGRADE rating to 5⭐️ FOR CONSISTENTLY SUPERB CANTONESE DINNER SERVICE. *** This is a conclusion from several independent visits between myself and foodie friends. (Photos uploaded separately at the time of update). The lunch buffets on weekdays is NOT the measure of this place. ITS GEM IS THE UNDERSTATED CANTONESE A LA CARTE, best enjoyed at supper time😎. It’s truly superb, the flavors brings back fond memories of Hongkong, a culinary center known for myriad Cantonese foods, from the street stalls to takeaways to casual and fine dining. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 THIS IS PITTSBURGH’S BEST PLACE FOR ROAST DUCK. In addition, the dumplings are reminiscent of traditional Cantonese DimSum. Indeed, while this not a DimSum eatery (unfortunately Pittsburgh DOES NOT YET have a true DimSum Restaurant), the dumplings are exceptionally Cantonese! It’s a BYOB, so bring your favorite wine for dinner. Service is excellent. ***** SURPRISING AUTHENTIC CANTONESE, against the cheap Chinese-style greasy salty lunch buffet (corruption of Chinese cuisine). Please please forget that buffet. ORDER FROM THE MENU, and awaken your palate to the subtle flavors of the Cantonese. The menu is short and very navigable. My recommendations: 1. Cantonese duck - juicy, fat rendered very much to the almost paper thin skin 2. Char Siu pork - unique Chinese BBQ pork, very lean 3. Sautéed Bokchoy with garlic They also have a small dim sum selection - the best is the Shu Mai and Shrimp Leek Dumplings. It’s a find for Foodies.

This is some of the best Chinese food in Pittsburgh. Since I found this gem I probably stop in at least once a week and it’s always a feast. I love grabbing friends and eating family style. The staff is so kind. But be aware they are more eastern style in that they don’t wait on you hand and foot like expected in western dining, but you’ll get everything you need.

Honestly, I don't know how I ended up here but it was delish and the people were very nice. It's a small place and we made a reservation about an hour before showing up. I am a pretty routine kind of girl and I got the Kung Pao Shrimp and it was spicy! I don't believe in too spicy so I appreciated it. Every bite was delish. The portion size was large and could probably feed another me. I have no idea what my boyfriend ordered but he ordered an entire fish and it came with a glove, Their crab rangons might be the best that I've had in the city. I can't wait to check this place out again.

I enjoyed my dinner here. Braised beef with tofu skin tasted delicious. The waiter was friendly, but the meal was a little bit pricey. I may want to come back to try other dishes.

Toufu is good, but not $28 good. Tea smoked duck is $28 very little meat, mostly bone and skin, sea food duo (shrimp and octopus) $38 not worth it, not very fresh, octopus is tough, they refried it, it’s not fresh made. Cumin lamb is good. Overall overpriced for what it is

Wow! I can’t put into words what I just experienced food wise, service wise, & atmosphere wise. By FAR the BEST dumplings I’ve ever had!!!!!!! All the food.. from egg rolls… to 2 different style dumplings… to General Tso’s Chicken… to Wide Spicy Beef Hot Oil Noodles…. Everything tasted FANTASTIC. My 1st time to Pittsburgh… I’ll definitely be back just to eat here.

Amazing Dumplings lives up to its name in every way. From the moment you step inside, you're welcomed by an incredibly friendly and inviting atmosphere, matched by a staff that truly enhances the experience. Their dumplings are nothing short of works of art—beautifully crafted, vibrantly colored, and thoughtfully presented. Every bite reflects the care and skill that goes into making them, with handmade dough and hand-stuffed fillings that set them apart. To start, we had the vegetable eggroll and fried scallion pancake, both crisp and flavorful. For the main event, we sampled a variety of dumplings, each with its own unique flavor profile: Pork Pickled Cabbage Dumplings – A tangy twist from the pickled cabbage, adding a delightful sourness. Van Gogh Starry Map Dumplings – A stunning tofu-based, meatless option, as artistic as it is delicious. Sunrise Rainbow Chicken Dumplings – Almost too pretty to eat, these rainbow dumplings were as flavorful as they were colorful. Secret Mala Pork Dumplings – Served untossed, allowing you to mix in the spices for an extra kick of heat. General Tso’s Chicken Dumplings – A sweeter, comforting take on a classic flavor. Beyond dumplings, we also tried the Hot Oil Beef Wide Noodles, another standout dish. The long, handmade noodles arrive untossed, requiring a mix to fully incorporate the rich, spicy flavors. The texture and taste were absolutely incredible. Overall, Amazing Dumplings delivers both visually and flavor-wise, making it a must-visit spot for dumpling lovers and anyone looking to experience North China home-style cuisine at its finest. Highly recommended!

I used to go to Pitt, and liked these guys well enough to go when I didn't want the extra-greasiness of Szechuan Spice. But, despite it being awhile since I'd gotten food from here, I was still hesitant because I remembered the chicken always being dry. But I really wanted bourbon chicken, and it's hard to find around here, so I went here. And it was pretty dry. Yeah, the sauce at the bottom helped (to reference the owner's apparent response to another review), but you shouldn't have to drench chicken in sauce for it to be easier to eat. And frankly, there wasn't enough sauce in the bottom to compensate for the dryness anyway. Pretty good if you're a stoned/drunk college student or can't eat super greasy food without it triggering your chronic illness, but I guess it'll just be awhile before I have bourbon chicken again. The flavors also weren't particularly strong, and in retrospect I think I should've just gone to my usual spot. Would've taken longer and they don't have bourbon chicken, but it would've felt more worth the money. I feel like I've always ended up there later in the day, so I would suggest try going there closer to when they open, maybe it won't be so dry then. At the very least, the little tent they put up against the front during the colder months is a very nice touch.

Chicken was so hard, couldn’t even pick it up with a fork or chew it. My children choked on it. I called to tell them about how dry and hard the chicken was, they talked over me and told me the sauce went to the bottom of the container. Then told me I could get a refund after I raised my voice to talk over them. I didn’t want a refund. I wanted to eat a meal with my family. I could’ve went to the mall and had better food. Now I’m sitting here mad and hungry.

The place is known for its noodles which are solid. However, the fried chicken is AMAZING! We typically order the original flavor (don’t use the chili dipping sauce that comes with it as it detracts from the tasty fried chicken flavor in my opinion.) The chicken always comes out hot and fresh and they are delicious. I would highly recommend them. Kid approved as well lols. Service has always been great here and the wait staff is very attentive.

Ordered a boba. There were foreign objects in the drink. Finger nail sized, plastic looking objects that were breakable. The lady in the photo had the audacity to blame it back on me and said that I put the objects in the drink just so I can get free drink. Unbelievable.

Ordered take out . Food came nice and hot and accurate. Egg rolls were good . The wontons in the soup 🍲 were kinda a weird texture to me. General tso chicken wasn't bad. Ordered the pepper 🫑 steak 🥩 and got more peppers then anything so that's a lil disappointing. Steak was a little hard to chew. The fried rice was flavorless. I think it might be the worse rice I have had in terms of flavor. It didn't taste like anything when you ate it.

I had high hopes for this place, but it just didn’t compare to my usual choices for Asian food in Squirrel Hill. We were steamed quickly and the service was prompt. We ordered a scallion pancake to start, which was inarguably the best part of the meal. Following our entrees came out almost too quick. I ordered chicken and broccoli which was just okay and lacked flavor in the sauce. My friend had the General Tso’s combo meal. The chicken was decent but the fried rice was mediocre at best. Wouldn’t be my first, second, or third choice in the area.
