The food was wonderful and the service was phenomenal. We are just from the dim sum menu with soup. The soup had layers of flavor, the peanut and duck dumplings were flavorful and savory. I could go on about the mix of flavors...or you could go yourself for a culinary treat!

Key to dining here in a quiet setting is to dine on the early side. Food and service has always been superb; now better than ever. Rivals the very best Hong Kong/Cantonese food in the City.

Always fabulous dining experience every single time! Great food and service, will be always back!!

Increased prices are simply way too high to ignore, thus the 2-star review. Look, the food is top-quality, 4 to 5 stars without a doubt. Some of the best dim sum I’ve had, especially the shrimp noodle roll and siu mai. The spicy shrimp wonton with sesame oil is exceptional. Their XO sauce is really good. But $20 for a plate of Chinese broccoli is straight up robbery. It was no different than the plate you get for $8-10 anywhere else. $18 siu mai? C’mon now. There are a couple specialty dishes that I’m totally okay with spending on, but I don’t want to be gouged on the basics. The dining room is also painfully small and tables are very cramped as a result.

Outstanding Dim Sum. Steamed Sea Bass is also a highlight. We did not care for the coffee crusted ribs; they literally taste like stale burnt diner coffee. Worth a visit, but the price is excessive. Went with family and paid well over $100 per person

Good but a bit pricy. Perfect for impressing someone with authentic Chinese food and good atmosphere

We eat here at least every three-four weeks. We appreciate how clean the dishes are. While people complain about it being pricey, we rationalize this relative to the outstanding dishes. Sure the restaurant is small, sure they don’t take walk-ins. But we keep seeing the same folks every time we go. If you want a quality meal prepared excellently this is your place. Here you actually get what you pay for. Have a reservation next week.

Excellent food and service. The dim sum ( tapas) we had were outstanding. Shrimp toast, scallion pancake, spicy Sichuan wonton, duck and chive dumpling, spicy eggplant all were great. Highly recommend.
Excellent service and food. Waiter was helpful in deciding what and how much to order. Plates were often changed. Food was carefully prepared. Brought a birthday cake and they added a sparkler for spectacular presentation. My group loved the meal.

Highly recommend! Excellent food and great service. Be sure to try the salt & pepper soft-shelled crab, braised pork belly, sweet & sour pork, BBQ pork, shrimp & chives, and the sesame balls. Everything comes out fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious.

Been thinking for many months to come here. And I am very glad I did. I miss the old location but the food has not suffered from the move. The dim sum was delicious and exactly what I wanted. Steamed shrimp dumplings are always my favorite and didn't disappoint.

Best Cantonese restaurant in San Francisco with the newspaper posted reviews at the restaurant to prove it. Loved the shrimp and the beef dish was prepared to perfection.
