    The description and the reality were rather different. It was poorly lit, empty, and kind of depressing. Definitely not the pictures in the description. Bait and switch.

    First time here. Good food. Very busy with takeout orders. Host told us up front that they were running behind and it might be awhile. Ended up being fine. Went with steak, crispy duck and chow fun noodles. All great.

    Wow, I had no idea this was a vegetarian restaurant when I made the booking. Scaled down menu presented for Christmas Day, which didn’t make a difference, the food was wonderful and as it could be said, I didn’t miss the ‘meat’ at all. Definitely worth the trip to visit this space.

    Awesome food, service, and atmosphere. Clean and quiet inside. In a great spot right behind the action of Broad st in Center City and easy to get to. Had various apps including the crab rangoon, tofu and sesame buns. Ordered the general tso’s seitan as the entree. Everything was delicious and perfectly cooked. I can’t believe it’s all vegan! Will definitely be back. Highly recommend!

    The food here is always reliably wonderful. When seated after reserving a table, though, it would be nice to be seated in the dining room rather than at a booth in the front room.

    We were visiting Philly for a double date. My husband and I wanted to dine at an asian restaurant. We were disappointed with the quality of food. We were expecting meat, surprisingly we ate the food only because we were hungry.

    The food here was so good. Did not miss the meat, as promised. My son loved the sesame tofu most of all. I was particularly fond of the moo shoo vegetables. So very good. I was also pleased that the pan fried noodles had so many vegetables in brown sauce. They were terrific!

    Our waiter could have been more attentive for a restaurant that wasn’t in the slightest bit busy. And he wasn’t overly friendly in any way.

    As a vegetarian was very excited at seeing an establishment entirely dedicated to a vegetarian experience Had a difficult time picking from various choices. However the food did not disappoint The General Tso’s Seitan was the pick of the lot. Very crispy Seitan’s coated in Gen TSo’s was awesome Not to mention the unlimited jasmine tea…yum!!

    Food didn’t arrive for 1 hour. Didn’t refill teapot when it was empty. Staff didn’t check in with us and actively ignored my attempts to get their attention. Finally had to go and ask. “Very sorry, the kitchen is very busy.” 10 min later food arrived.

    Su Xing House is my favorite restaurant in Philly for tasty and healthy Chinese food! Particularly beloved dishes are their version of Peking “duck” and their eggplant and tofu hot pot! I can always get a reservation and the food comes out fast, hot, and delicious.

    The Kung Pau Tofu was excellent! The sautéed book chose was perfect too. The scallion pancake was surprisingly dense and pretty flavorless.

    Food was very good with a lot of choices to decide from. Did not know it was BYOB but there is a package goods store two blocks away. They where very attentive to keeping the table tidy/neat. Would go back again after a show...

    The food and the service were quite good. When we arrived at 5 pm, we were the only diners there, and were placed at a table in a cubby upstairs next to a window. However, near the end of our meal, another couple came in who were loud and smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. Despite the fact that the restaurant was otherwise entirely empty, this couple was placed in the cubby right behind ours. Not only were they loud and smelly, but the woman, who was sitting on the seat with her back to my seat, was extremely active, and kept knocking the back of my seat. Fortunately, we were almost done, and left about 15 minutes after they arrived.

    We were seated up stairs and at the window with neon lights. The lights provided an almost surreal ambience, while the elevation kept us from staring directly into peoples faces as they walked by on the street below. The server was attentive yet not intrusive. It was such a cozy atmosphere we ate our food slowly, just enjoying the experience overall. The food was wonderful. Fresh, dynamic, complex—everything was a delight. The complimentary tea was such a tasty yet friendly touch to the table experience.

    Portions are a little smaller, prices are a little higher, the lighting is a little brighter. Everything else seems the same as pre-pandemic. Still one of my pre-concert go-tos.

    Everyone in our group loved the flavors and diversity of all our dishes. Sauces, soup, vegan- meats, tofu, noodles and broccoli were very good. I only held back one star because we wished for other vegetables too. We especially wished for leafy greens, but couldn’t find them. Maybe we missed them. We highly recommend this place and look forward to returning.
