With all due respect this place was horrible. I went with my in-laws and my husband. We all ordered something to eat and the waiter didn't bother to tell me that their Large soup was REALLY LARGE.. I mean JUMBO STATUS probably enough to feed 5 people and have some leftovers. Additionally, the texture of the soup looked like someone's vomit. The waiter hardly interacted with us and he forgot my husband's fried rice, he finally brought it 30min after when my husband was done eating his orange chicken.
Their mongolian beef had some crunchy noodles that were simply bland. I was very disappointed with my overall experience. My family was disappointed too, I'm definitely not going back to this place nor referring anyone I know here.

As a cantonese, the flavor of the dishes is nothing traditional. The soup was tasteless and the service of the staff was not great. I ordered some shrimp dumplings and they were not served until I was about to leave (20 mins of waiting with just few clients in store). The stir-fried clams was not served at all and had to cancel it at the end.

No stars really. The food was awful, dry, flavorless and meat was over cooked and rubber-like. My entire family had upset stomach’s after eating it! Worst of all, the staff was rude and I mean beyond your normal rude. They were mean. Didn’t speak and if they had to answer a question they would look at you in disgust and point or shoo you away. I could go on and on. I will never eat there again. I work in customer service, do better.

That fish tank in the entrance is much to small for the quantity and size of fish.
Just a warning but any Sodas you order are gonna be canned. Not saying thats an issue just be aware of that if u plan on getting a soda.
Food is decent but I wasn't jumping out of my chair for it.

The food was good the staff was horrible. We asked for soda and the waitress was really rude had a bad attitude. We asked for hot sauce and she just went and slammed it on the table. I felt as if they were being racist after I asked the guy thinking he might have a better attitude and same he made this face when I asked for hot pepper on oil. I told my daughter I'm not leaving a tip because of their bad service the waitress came and she demanded we give her tip my daughter felt bad so as she was taking out her money the waitress just snatched it . Never coming back to this place .

Nice place. Not many other customers at first. Then what appeared to be regulars and respected members of the community came filtering in and joined others at the different large round cloth covered tables. Wait staff were ok. It a whole lot of conversation. I would check out other restaurants to compare taste. So many to try in Chinatown .

Hearty portions. Delicious food. Very reasonable prices. The bowl of chicken congee was three times the size I was expecting.

Traditional Cantonese cuisine. If you are a tourist, you might have difficulty ordering unless you use the menu and show them what you want. Today I got their beef brisket over rice. The presentation is not the best but the food is good. Wish they added more vegetables or something so it looks a bit nicer. Another heads up is all of their lunch special is now $7.80. As a general rule of thumb, tip in cash too!

Located in Chicago Chinatown, mayflower is a restaurant that serves solid dim sum. I went around lunch time on a Sunday, and it was busy. The establishment was filled with locals, and it was loud as people were conversing over the food. There are too many dishes to go over, but here are 3 things that were good during this visit:
1. Loh Mai Fan, sticky rice: it’s fried style (rather than steamed) and has peanuts.
2. Lo Bak Go, turnip cake: crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside.
3. Wu Gok, Crispy taro puff: crispy outside filled with taro and meat on the inside.
It isn’t the fanciest, but it’s relatively inexpensive for going out for dim sum. If you’re in Chinatown, check this place out if you’re looking for a good place for dim sum.
