Tampa Bay Chinese - Nowatney

This place had some bomb dim sum and Chinese food. My cousins and I went on a random weekday and this place was packed. The shumai, rice crepe, hargow, shrimp dumplings, sweet buns, and other traditional dim sum dishes were on point. I would avoid the Xiao Long Bao soup dumplings. The inside of the XLB's didnt have a lot of meat or soup. Prices are fair and service was really quick. The location itself is very clean and you can order traditional dishes during lunch time as well. Noise level is low and they have seating for large parties. I see why they are voted one of the best Chinese restaurants in the area.

We eat lunch here , at least, on e a week. The food and service are good. The prices are reasonable especially the lunch specials available during weekdays. The lunch specials include a pot of hot tea or soda with unlimited refills. My husband and I have a good relationship with the staff now after eating there often. We like their regular Chinese dishes and the Dim Sum. There are two locations in Tampa: Hillsborough Avenue and South Dale Mabry. They have the best Chinese food and Dim Sum. We have gotten to know Ricardo, Luis, Denise, Eaton, Chase and most of the lunch staff.

It’s ok. We first visited five months ago for a take out. Two beef dishes were overly sweet: Hunan Beef and Sichuan Beef both should taste spicy and salty. The second visit on 2023.7.07, we came here again with our friends who love them. Decor: Simple and clean. Service is good but you need to raise your hand and keep it up in the air for a while. We've Beijing duck so so pea tips with garlic good Mongolian beef ok spicy fish eggplant pot not bad. The temperature is on the cold side. The Peking duck isn't really a Peking duck, just a cooked duck. The creep is thick hard and cold. The scallion is fresh, but no cucumber ?. They've a wine list.

Heard great things and always looking for the next best Chinese food restaurant. While this is a really nice place with a large open interior and great service, the food is good but not fantastic. The listed egg rolls are really spring rolls but they were hot and fresh. The fried wontons were also good but not the best we’ve ever had and the dipping sauce bland. The Salt Pepper wings were good, very crisp and hot so that’s a plus one. The scallops and shrimp in black bean sauce was tasty but very lite in the scallop and shrimp portions. The chicken fried rice was bland and again very lite in the chicken portion. Malaysia chow fun was ok just bland and again lite in the meat and fish portions. The pork dish was the stand out of the night. What white rice with your food, well that’s a dollar extra per person which makes no sense. Give it a try you may enjoy it.

Delicious restauran. This is a must visit in Tampa. Food was out of this world. Staff was very friendly and restaurant was very clean. The salt and pepper calamari is must for an appetizer. Great bistro in Tampa
