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.

The food was really good. A few of the items we ordered were amazing, and some of the items could use a little more salt in it, but it was definitely a great place. Make sure to have a reservation because the place is really busy.
