This was a 5-star dim sum eatery. They are high in price but the quality was always exceptional.During my latest visit, something changed. The lobako was flavorless, the Had Gow insipid and their once wonderful sticky rice was dull. I don't know what happened but they should fix it as soon as possible.

Just great food and service

Place definitely fell off, quality of food dropped significantly. How you gonna give me a xlb with no meat juice? Go to Din tai fung, order less, and have a better meal

The House special sizzling fish in black bean sauce tasted great however, it was mostly parts of the fish I would throw away after filleting it; such as the tail and fins. It also seemed expensive ($23) for not getting a decent cut of fish. The steamed shrimp dumplings were a little dry but tasted good. The service was lacking as well.

Overall the dim sum experience was pretty descent at best. This is my second time here, first time being about five years ago where the wait was looonnggg! So this time time I arrived here, with a party of three, 7 minutes after opening which was 9:30am on a Sunday. Upon entering I noticed four other parties already seated. At China Red, you don't see the traditional cart pushing, where each cart would walk by each table telling you what they got, instead you get a paper and pencil to mark what you want. After we submitted out paper, the food came pretty fast, too fast! The food came out pretty cool or luke warm, like it was sitting out.We ordered 12 dishes, I don't remember them all but what stood out (still not warm-ish) was the Siu Mai, Har Gow & Steamed Pork Ribs. Har Gow and Siu Mai was big, pretty good flavor. Steam Pork Ribs was plentiful and good flavor too.Noticeably Underwhelming (to include not being warm) dishes were chicken feet, (my all time favorite dish) Shrimp Cheung Fun & leek dumpling. All of them were pretty bland. The chicken feet was not soft and the flavor wasn't there.Overall, the biggest thing was the food wasn't warm which making the taste not so appetizing. Service was amazing, they would come buy and take our empty dishes, refill our tea pot, asking how we were doing etc.

The place is beautifully decorated to be seen as a high class dinning experience. The service is on point and nice.However, the food is also very important. But, it is just pricey, not in a good way.The quality definitely didn't match the price tag.One can get the same plate of food at a normal Chinese sea food restaurant with a okay price tag and have it taste much better.We were very disappointed on the taste of each dish. There really isn't much to write about it. It is just your standard fare.Won't be returning to this restaurant in the future.

No heat on a cold rainy day! Chicken congee had very little meat mainly bones. Nothing early exceptional!

The service is fine, but the food is terrible - worst dim sum I’ve ever had. Probably because we didn’t come at a right time.

Good food with special menu and serving style

Nice restaurant and the food is great! The pineapple bun is a definite must try at this place.
This place is really good ?, they stayed professional, waiters are friendly and nice during the rush hours. Overall foods are still great.

It's one of 3 Chinese restaurant is selling dim sum in lunch hours. Food is delicious and big parking lot is at the back.

Horrible horrible front desk receptionist.It is a busy restaurant. When we arrived, we were told we need to wait 3 tables of guest to finish dining. I asked approximately how much time that would be. The receptionist educated me about it doesn’t make any sense to say how long that would be. They don’t do text waiting, so you cannot wait in the car. There is no sitting area, even no shading spots outside of the restaurant, which means you have to standing under the sunshine in the middle of the day for God’s know how long. Left immediately! Dim sum taste pretty much the same. I don’t want to pay for such bad service while running the risk of having heatstroke.
