Ok, terrible name for so many reasons. But this little shop (seats probably max 20 people if everyone holding their breath) has such good food. The ramen is good, but the dim sum is worth writing home about.
4 stars only cause it was cash only when I was there and who uses that paper money anymore?

Best Ramen I ever had, staff was friendly, small place so wait times could be long sometimes

We saw this restaurant while walking the other day. The dim sum and dumplings caught our attention. Today, we were looking for an afternoon snack. So, we gave it a try. They specialize in making their noodles in-house. Not bad. Overall, food is OK. Not expensive. Not on my must return list.

I had the Pan-Fried Peking Duck Buns and the Shanghai Pan-Fried Pork Buns. Both were tasty & I’d go again if I were in the area. Great for an impromptu meal or snack if you’re in the area

Spicy beef ramen: The broth is sooo dense and deep flavor. The hand-pulled noodles are well-seasoned so every bite was delicious. The veggies must have been flash sautéed because they were crunchy and flavorful!
Pork and crab meat soup dumplings: the skin is not too thick and chewy, and filled with plenty of delicious soup and a nice chunk of meat. So delicious.

We love the atmosphere and there is a TV playing the story. The service is pretty nice. There is a green steamed dumping, really good taste for vegetarian! I like their house Noodle~ But the steamed bun is not surprised.

Yummy dumpling soup. Duck buns are mouthwatering. Small place with a few tables, gets full pretty quickly. I was skeptical about “pork and shrimp” filling of the dumplings but it was marvelous. Portions are huge. Minimum order 25$, if you want to pay by card.

Met a new friend from the Pitch Social app here this weekend. The soup dumplings are so delicious. Ramen too! Will definitely be coming back

Real Kung Fu Little Steamed Buns is a hidden gem. It's not too well-known but has some of the most authentic baos that I've tried in New York City yet. Of note, the restaurant struck a very good balance between a crispy bottom and juicy pork fillings for their Sheng Jian Bao, all while not being too oily as well! If you ever come to Real Kung Fu Little Steamed Buns, get the Sheng Jian Bao! (It's great for take out too)

Went at 7pm on Tuesday, no wait. You can order tea from Ho Ho Te at the restaurant. The dumplings were def homemade tasting. The broth was flavorful (spicy beef, pork, house special and chicken were ordered). The noodles were just right for ramen. Hand cut noodles were thicker we were told but we ordered ramen only so didn't try.
