Joy Luck House - Calumet-Norvelt

Amazing food! So so good! Will come back when i visit again!

The food here was so delicious!! It was our first time here. I tried the sesame chicken, chicken dumplings, sesame balls, and bubble tea. Everything was so fresh and so good. We’ll definitely be back!

The tofu with vegetables is delicious! Also loved the egg drop soup and lo mein. The scallion pancakes were tasty but a bit too oily for me.

We came here on a Sunday during our DC trip and I 'm glad my wife was at a conference and unable to come with us.There was no one in there when we got there at 1130am. Seems like prime time for dim sum. Reluctantly we stayed because we had a 1200 timed entry to the air and space museum.There are no carts (apparently none of the dimsum places in Chinatown do anymore. But to add insult to injury, you have to go up to the register to order.It took a long while for our 4 orders (soup dumplings, hargow, siewmai, and steamed pork buns. Like 20 minutes. When they arrived at our table, they came in plastic containers I don 't mean plastic plates but full on take out containers.Everything had a rubbery microwaved taste and mouth feel. No chilli sauce was offered, no water was brought to the table until we asked for it and it was clearly unfiltered DC water with a strong sulphur smell.While we were there, 3 other customers came in for take out. Looked like they worked around the area and one came in to get $10 worth of quarters not for food.Clearly, this place should not be considered a dim sum restaurant. Clearly they don 't care.Maybe their lo mein take out is good but stay away for dim sum.$55 for the 3 of us and we went to the museum cafe for lunch (which was also bad but at least expected).

My daughter and I went to this restaurant and when I found out that the chopsticks I was about to use, had been used. Please check your chopsticks before using them. And break them when you are done eating.
