We tried the Feast All You Can promo for 600 per pax. They offer a lot of taiwanese food. Choose from different appetizers, dimsums, rice toppings and noodles and 1 house specialty of your choice. I really liked the vegetable and pork dumplings and sweet and sour chicken with rice. The dimsums are made fresh. The chicken dish was also good. The pineapple shrimp with crullers is also good. It's both sweet and savory very refreshing taste. For the house specialty we got salted egg prawns, mixed mushrooms with xo sauce, crispy chicken and taiwanese tofu claypot with pork. I liked the mushroom dish the most. It's salty and very flavorful and its not overcooked the shrooms still has a bite and crunch.We went here on a Saturday night on a payday week so there are a lot of people. Luckily my friends were there early so they were able to get a table pretty fast.

Hey guys, just want to let you know why this place isn’t up to par and what my basis is for giving it such a low rating compared to the plethora of these so-called “food critics” who gave it a thumbs up. This place definitely favored certain patrons. I mean I would have rated it easily a 3.5-star for the food alone. So allow me to share you a story.... yesterday (Oct. 19) while we (group of 6 with 2 kids) were having dinner, we encountered a large group comprising entirely of men in their company uniforms spearheaded by a chinky eyed individual sporting a checkered shirt, on their table were approximately around 30 stacks of bamboo steamer trays at one point, I kid you not. We ordered 5 trays and only one came out in the 3 and a half hours despite numerous follow-ups. During that duration, the group I was talking about were still receiving orders and we just basically resigned to the fact that this kind of occurrence could happen anywhere. And as a food lover, I couldn’t turn a blind eye to an establishment that does this kind of behavior. tl;dr: food is actually good, service sucks because they favor certain patrons.

We had our lunch here today with my senior citizen parents. But I find is so offensive when we are about to bill out I asked the waiter if they honor senior citizen’s ID, the waiter said yes, so I gave him their SC IDs but as soon as he turn his back on us he said something to his co-waiter he showed my parents IDs and said “dalawa pa” then they both laugh. Good thing that my parents didn’t notice it because I don’t want to hurt their feelings. I think it is their right and privilege to enjoy their benefits as senior citizens. My parents ride the jeepneys when they go to the church or market but they never ask for discounts only when they eat at restaurants do they use their privilege but sadly there are people like these two waiters who are not sensitive to the feelings of others. I hope that the management would teach their staff to be polite. And btw they didn’t even compute the right amount of discount.

Went here with my mom for a low key lunch and wasnt disappointed with the menu. It was a whole freakin' book of goodness. Lol. And mind you, everything we ordered was served within 10 minutes. Kudos to that!

One of my fave places to get dumplings/xiao long bao. Love their Cantonese lemon tea too. Reminds me of the usual iced tea in Hong Kong. I hope they reconsider the vinegar for dumplings/xiao long bao though. Found it to be too sour. Namutla lips ko. Good thing the food was good even without that.

Food is great. The ambiance looks fancy. Its a great place if you want to relax and chat with family and friends with less people in your surrounding. Best Xiao Long Bao in the city.

Visited Lugang for an early dinner.  They had a PHP598.00 promo, but we decided to order ala carte. We ordered their Pork Xiao Long Bao, Tofu with Pork, and Noodles.  Service was very slow.  Constant follow ups were needed.  Some customers were serving themselves with the water.  Taste was average.  Price is on the high side.  There are better alternatives.  The PHP598.00 promo would be good for diners with big appetite.
