NO WIFI. great food. Lots of parking. Come early for dim sum. Family of 4 ate and was full for about $110. Tip is included in bill. Would come again, food is a little cold but delicious. Really good for big group trips. Cocos beside here for boba after. I recommend. Ask for bill at table, complimentary tea. Place is clean and they do takeout. Servers are nice, looks like they speak mainly mandarin. Once you pick a dish from their carts they push around. They stamp your card. Dim sum you don’t order from the menu. They do actually order on demand if you want. You can walk in, no reservations necessary
We visited this dim sum restaurant every summer when we drive back from vacation and pass by. It is little surprising not too many people are eating in the restaurant comparing to previous years! The food is still keeping same quality, but since less customers, the deep fried dishes were getting cold when the waitress pushing them from the cart. I prefer the hot taste.
Had some time to pass and stopped in for a quick meal. The atmosphere has not changed to me over the years. Service is super awesome, and food was so tasty. We had 1 serving of pork with crispy skin, mixed veg with chicken, and small white rice. Small sake on ice was presented. Server was friendly and good knowledge of menu. 100% recommend a d next time will do dim sums.
I know a lot of reviews on here said that this place is overpriced but the prices make sense for what they’re serving — my family came here for my grandmas birthday dinner and we all loved it! The prices are pretty typical for an authentic ethnic restaurant and the quality is honestly worth more. For context, we are Chinese and found the food very authentic. The staff were super kind and the food was delicious. Also the automatic tip applied to the bill was pointed out to us which was kind but it also honestly saved us the trouble of calculating our own tip (we always tip our servers and you should too!). Overall a great experience coming from a Chinese family, try it out!!
Weekday push cart dim sum. Usual caveats: watch for fresh stuff vs things that have circled. Overall great quality and service!
Wonderful authentic dimsum. Everything was delicious and quickly served.
