Standard dim sum experience. Nothing to complain about here. Service can be a little slow if you're seated in the corner, but that's normal for places like this. Be careful, you can rack up a hefty bill fast if you're not careful.

Dim Sum in North County! I could not be happier. As with all Dim Sum the earlier the better because it's fresher! Their dim sum was the best I've had in San Diego so far! Beef and Shrimp noodle are my top favorite and the bbq pork bun is delicious as is their standard shu mai and assorted dumplings

Genuine and delicious dim sum. Great options. We went there for lunch. Beautiful lake in the backyard.

Don't know why the family keeps coming here but officially telling the family that this place is not worth going to. It's Sunday it's not busy we have a group of 14. There's maybe 5 other people eating but then out of all the large tables they sit a 20 person party right next to us who were extremely loud. It gets worse where the wait staff straight up disappears and persons from our own table have to get up and serve ourselves water and hot tea. This place straight up needs work with more attentive staff. The food either came out extremely salty or cold. Will not return. Would not recommend for dinner. Maybe a lunch dim Sum when it's busy will the food be worth it. The price we are paying for dinner with all of us was not worth the price we will pay. 1/5.

Couple of days later and I'm still upset with that guy.

I'm Chinese and this my favorite dim sum place in San Diego! Everything is always really fresh and up to par. All the staff are really nice and provide great service. Price is totally reasonable!

Great place for Dim Sum. Good service and the quality of the DimSum is pretty good with the traditional Hong Kong style serving carts. Too bad they don't carry the sweet soyabean curd dessert anymore..

We were kind of scared to go here because we had only ever been with our friend who speaks Chinese (Cantonese), but my mother in law wanted to go for her birthday, so we obliged. Firstly, the atmosphere is very, very classy. Even at lunch, I felt like the place was dripping with style (and culture). Having been to a lot of Asian cuisine restaurants around SD, I can attest that is not always the case. Secondly, the food is delicious, and the portions are bountiful - we fed 10 people with ease. Lunch staff was friendly and attentive to us, very helpful with the menu. Overall a wonderful experience!

Excellent selection of dim sum. The service is a bit wanting, but the food is delicious.

I came in on a weekend and had a great dim sum experience! There were about 4-5 carts coming around at all times. I couldn't keep up with how often they came around which was great. If ever we wanted to order something specific from a cart on the other side of the restaurant, they were quick to get the cart our way. I hear it was really something here in its heyday. While perhaps past its prime, I would gladly return for some delicious dim sum.

Haven't been here in a long time, not good anymore. Food portions are small, food came out sooooo slow. We asked them where our food was and they respond by asking us what we got so far....well you don't know? Food comes out luke warm. Flour tortillas for mu shu pork we're all dry and cracked. The only thing good was the hot tea. Place wasn't even packed....now I know why. Not coming back.

So much better than last time! Carts are back and now some servers speak english to boot, so nice bonus. Food is good and portions may have increased as well. Will be back for sure.
