Bidra med feedbackWill never be here again. first they told me that the order would be ready in 20 minutes, so I came back in 20 minutes to just sit there waiting for another 20 minutes to eat. Secondly, they have accused me 8.95 for crab meat soup dumpling, which I expect for handmade, and I got what like tiny frozen load bought suppe dumpling. Thirdly, the soupenknödel were not even completely cooked. I had to steam them back to the house, because the pack was still raw! Finally, their pan fried dumplings had no taste and barely meat. what a waste.
Average food. very friendly lady works there. ordered braided pork over rice, Taiwanese pork chop over rice, oyster omelette, popcorn huh and scalion pancakes. all the dishes are decent and there is a domestic feeling for it. the taste is something on the sweet side. oyster omelette is like Korean seafood pancake with a semi-gelatinous center. I don't know how I feel that they have served a beautiful chrysanthemum tea with the meal.
Tasty Moment truly knows how to make an impression. Beginning with the wonderful hostess, who showed us to our table, the attentiveness from the wait staff, table setting, modern sleek aesthetics, and the plating of the dishes as they are both delectable and exceptionally photogenic.This is their new location as they have relocated into the old PappaRich restaurant in the H Mart complex. Tasty Moment specializes in Shanghai cuisine but does carry other items on their menus such as dim sum and specialty drinks. Happy to say, their menu is diverse and there are plenty of vegetarian dishes. You will even see them making their famous XLB expertly prepared fresh, behind a see through plexiglass area separating you from the people, as soon as you place your order. We ordered crab and pork meat soup dumplings and I can easily see why this place is famous for their XLB. You will do yourself a great service by asking for ginger and chili oil to go with your dumplings. Not everybody wants them so they do not automatically offer this to you. After biting into the dumpling, you will be rewarded with rich soup so be sure to have your dumpling resting on the spoon to catch every bit of liquid bliss.We also ordered their pan fried soup dumplings and while their skin was thicker than their steamed counterpart, it was just as scrumptious. My partner in food crime today shared a bowl of pork knuckle noodle soup and the pork knuckle was so savory accompanied by a rich broth that I have not tasted in quite a while at any restaurant.The portions are generous so we were quite satiated by the end of our meal. After we took care of some business, the meal was so impressive that I went back and placed a takeout order with Lucy, our original and gracious hostess. She told me my order, mixed mushrooms with green vegetables would take about 15 20 minutes. I mentioned I’ll be outside sipping on my boba drink and set my timer to go back at the given time. Sipping my beverage, reading, and enjoying the warm sun, Lucy came out and personally handed me the order as my order had just come out of the kitchen, piping hot. Hubby and I have had our fair share of horrible take out Asian cuisine recently and so he was dubious about the quality of the food. Skeptically, he opened the container not expecting much. The first thing he noticed was that the vegetable dish’s sauce was not saturated with oil. The second thing he noticed was a mixture of 3 different types of mushrooms and the super green Shanghai tips. Our only wish is that Tasty Moment would have more vegetables in their dishes. I found the same problem with my noodle soup earlier. He tasted it and declared, it was indeed one of the best takeouts in quite a while.Special shout out to our wonderful waiter, Brian who will make your dining experience as wonderful as possible. Another shout out goes to Lucy, the hostess who welcomes you like you are old friends and helped me ease back into dining in. She felt my nervousness and placed us at a table where we were far from others and made sure not to have anyone be seated too close to us. They also clear the tables and thoroughly wipe down the tables after patrons leave so I feel quite safe knowing they go through the extra steps of keeping tables clean.My final two cents worth is, as we are hopefully coming out of hibernation due to the pandemic and the indoor dining at restaurants, we are all wanting to have an enjoyable time out. However, the pandemic has affected many restaurants and unfortunately, some restaurants had no choice but to cut corners and some even let go of the cooks and the owners themselves are doing the cooking. That is why some restaurants’ food taste so different from their heydays. Tasty Moment has not done so and instead, focused on hiring cooks who specialize in Shanghai cuisine as well as a variety of dim sum and more. In times such as this, every restaurant should take a lesson from this restaurant.
Stopped by this place on a whim, but was unexpectedly surprised. The service was great and the owners were very friendly! The food was so flavorful, felt like a wonderful home cooked meal made with love.
The owner is really nice.food is awesome!! You can't get this much meat in other places with same price.
