Description

This Bronx spot requires looking past a storefront patched with cardboard and a B-grade rating. The property is run-down, with a litter-strewn parking lot, and past visitors have noted occasional kitchen slip-ups like uncleaned shrimp. Yet the kitchen draws a crowd for its friendly service and standout food, including a signature dumpling sauce. If you call to order, you will also encounter their famously unique phone greeting.
