" Had a wonderful meal with friends here. The ambiance was lively and welcoming. We loved the family-style service and shared a variety of dishes, including the crispy shrimp! Everything was delicious and the price was reasonable for the quality we received. Definitely a highlight of our trip! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has an undeniable charm, with the owner personally taking orders and ensuring everyone feels welcome. The food has a homey touch, though it may not be perfectly authentic. The flavors were delightful and each dish felt made with care. It’s worth checking out, but don’t expect a refined dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" It was a decent experience overall, but I wish the food had been a bit more authentic. The sesame chicken was great, but I expected more traditional flavors. Service was good but could be improved as we had to wait longer than expected for our appetizer. The restaurant itself is definitely busy! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a fantastic experience at House of Nanking! The food was absolutely delicious, especially the sesame chicken which was perfectly crispy and flavorful. The service was prompt, and we had a nice chat with the staff who recommended some excellent dishes. The atmosphere is lively, with people chatting all around us, which made for a great dining experience. Will definitely come back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" House of Nanking is a must-try if you're in Chinatown! We adored the variety of dishes available. The friendly staff made recommendations that were spot on, and we ended up trying dishes we'd never heard of before. Everything was fresh, full of flavor, and served quickly. The small setting adds to its charm—just a delightful little place! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations and they were mostly met. The food was fresh and flavorful, but it did feel a bit too westernized at times. The staff were quick and cheerful which added to the experience. If you're looking for a social atmosphere with good food, go here! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is overrated. The food didn’t meet my expectations after reading so many positive reviews. Some dishes tasted too salty and others were just bland. I think they focus more on quantity rather than quality. Won't be rushing back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)
