Dumplings are a must. It is by far the best ones I've ever tasted. Joe's is a real chinese restaurant, with real chinese people around your table and mostly speaking mandarin.

Amazing soup dumpling. Very good food with reasonable price. Suitable for casual dinner with friends and families. The service is what you can expect in Chinatown, which is OK.
