   Authentic dishes which were exotic to American palates. In the back of the extensive menu, they had “American Chinese” offerings which were familiar to us. The food was absolutely delicious! Basic wine offerings, but they were just fine. Service was very good. Ambiance was very bright lighting, and loud acoustics. That being said, we completely enjoyed our experience.

   Not sure how this restaurant had such good reviews. We got the crispy duck and it was totally dry and full of bones. We tried to use soy sauce to give it some flavor but that didn’t even help. We also ordered a spicy broccoli with oyster sauce and it was just big stalks of wilted green vegetables with no flavor. My husband asked for a seltzer and they brought him hot water in a cup. The location was across from Penn station which we wouldn’t have minded if the food was good but it wasn’t. I don’t know if it was just an off night or the reviews are exaggerated. The staff was nice, but that couldn’t make up for the sub par food.

   This was a nice restaurant. Our food was good. We ordered fried dumplings, house special fried rice, general tso chicken, and orange chicken. Both our chickens looked the same so I think they messed up our order and gave us both general tso chicken. Again, it was good but I was disappointed that I did not get to eat orange chicken. I loved their house special fried rice, it was delicious. Everyone was kind and the restaurant was clean.

   Staff was hysterical while serving, jumping in to take pictures and telling jokes. Food was delicious and plentiful.

    The space is non descript and you may expect something more upscale with the name Sky Pavilion. However, once inside and you browse the very extensive menu, you recognize the authenticity of the food. We had the soup pork dumplings to start which were excellent. I went with the spicy mutton,...soooo soft and tasty. My grand had the American Chinese General Tso chicken….very moist and not too sweet. We both enjoyed the lobster fried rice. I definitely recommend the restaurant and will go back to the jewel on 42nd street.
