    We always enjoy dining here. I think the menu might be a bit different since our last visit but we focus on one dish…the Peking duck, which is so delicious. We shared pork bao to start. Then the Peking duck and an order of pork fried rice tha t was very very large. It is preferable to have more people so you can enjoy more tastes. The wine list is small but we found a nice white to wash down our food. And while the tables are not on top of each other, this visit and others we have been close enough to converse with another couple which of course makes it a bit more fun.

    Chili Crab was a wonderful experience. The service couldn’t have been better. It was a Saturday night and the kitchen was backed up by the server was constantly stopping by to update us. We had the calamari appetizer which was delicious but different than any we have had. The Peking Duck was one of the best we have had. Highly recommend ordering it. We had the boc choy with garlic. Very good but was better at the bottom where it sat in the sauce. We come to the area and stay for 5 weeks every year. Chili Crab is a definite for next year.

    I lived in China and this is one of the best Chinese restaurants I’ve been to. The spicy cucumber is the best I’ve had since Beijing. The dumplings are terrific. They really know how to cook here. As good or better than any Chinese restaurant I went to in New York when I lived there.

    I was concerned after reading the reviews. However, we showed up on time for our reservation and were seated immediately. Those who showed up after the “first seating” or without a reservation did wait. Service was good and attentive. Food came out as expected and to everyone’s delight, was fantastic. We all went for spicier dishes and they were delicious. Definitely on the pricey side for the signature crab but, again, delicious. We’d go back and would recommend making an earlier reservation.
