The service and food were well worth it. I think the amount of food I got was great for the value and the taste was there for me. The area is well lit and clean.

Best food I had in Philly! I was dining in alone - and wasn't seated, so I sat at the bar and waited for a menu. They told me to order in the front to-go, so I shyly corrected them that I'd be dining in. I selected the boiled chicken, and an order of fried dumplings. The chicken was juicy, and the rice had just a slight hint of flavor. Even without the sauces, it was good! However, the star of this dish is definitely the radish soup. The soup was warm and hearty, and paired well with the chicken and rice. I've had my fair share of dumplings - and while I'm not sure that these were made in house, they were definitely cooked to perfection. Perfectly crispy, with the right amount of crunch. While I definitely felt rushed to finish my meal and get out of there, I still recommend stopping by for some hainanese style chicken rice. If you plan on dining in, do make sure you make a reservation or call in advance because there is limited seating options.

The chicken and rice were amazing! A ton of umami flavor. The radish soup warmed me right up on a cold winter day. Simple but delicious clear soup. I'm quite impressed! Will definitely go back. I would recommend trying the combination of the fried and poached chicken. Just a great, yummy, filling healthy meal. Service was prompt. Clean.

Food: I always get the set when I come here. It comes with chicken soup, ginger rice, the 3 classic sauces (scallion oil, sweet soy sauce, chili sauce), and the boneless chicken. You can choose to get all fried or all boiled. However, I tend to opt for half and half. The soup and rice is flavorful. The chicken pairs perfectly with the sauces. Sometimes they serve organs such as the chicken gizzard. The set is a really good deal! Service: Pretty quick and food doesn't take very long. Ambiance: Smaller restaurant. I would say it's probably hard to come here if you have a group larger than 4. Definitely expect a wait on the busier nights.

Hainanese chicken rice is one of my favorite comfort meals, and I was so excited when I found out this place in Chinatown specializes in it! We ordered the set for 2, which came with the chicken fried and boiled. I prefer the boiled option as personal preference, but the fried was very crispy and tasted just as good. The rice is flavored well, and the set also comes with a light chicken broth/soup. The service was quick. The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, so seating is a bit tight but still comfortable.

Been here a few times. Located in chinatown in Philly, this place specializes in Hainanese chicken and rice. The interior is pretty modern and somewhat trendy. The food comes out relatively fast. I've only ordered the chicken and rice dish. I tried both the fried and boiled options. I'd say the boiled option is better. The rice is flavorful and seasoned well. It's a good place to grab a quick bite.

Stopped by after some sightseeing and ordered the mixed chicken rice dish for 1. Don't have this around my way so it was a treat getting to taste something different. Amazing taste on the chicken, both poached and fried as well as the sauce presentation. Fabulous! Service was fast, and food was bomb. Glad we arrived before the rush because place was starting to get packed (6pm ish). Recommend if in the area! Radish soup was on point and complimented it all!

I went to this place TWO DAYS in a row because I loved it that much! I wanted a good pick me up meal, and the mixed set was perfect for that. I don't know if I loved the fried chicken or boiled more but the SAUCES were SO GOOD. I finished the entirety of the ginger one cause I loved it so much. I did try the Thai iced tea but it was a little too sweet for me. I also tried the mango sticky rice for dessert, but I felt like I tasted mango more than coconut. The mango DID taste really good, I just wanted more coconut (personal preference). 10/10 would go back

Came highly recommended from a foodie friend so we decided we need to take a nice walk over to Chinatown to try out this spot. Ordered #2 with crispy chicken. The symphony of flavors of the chicken, rice, and soup will tantalize your tastebuds. The food, the affordability, and cleanliness is exactly what everyone needs. You will love it!

I went here right after their lunch break so we were the first customers. We ordered their vegetable and tofu dish, and fried chicken and boiled chicken combo. I felt the tofu dish could have had more veggies in them for the price, but it was tasty. The sauce that comes with the chicken is good, especially the ginger sauce. I personally like the fried chicken (which paired well with the chili sauce), but both types of chicken were delicious. Ginger rice was nice and comforting, although I was not a huge fan of the soup except for the daikon (the soup was too salty for me). The service was quick and efficient; this place is not spacious, but it seemed like they were getting fair numbers of take out orders coming in. I would go back again and try some more items!
