Dim sum is good especially because of the lower prices. I think the best times to grab something is in between breakfast and lunch. They get pretty busy. The bbq section is usually busy with long lines because typically there is only 1 person chopping up your meats.

Deli counter style place offering a variety of greasy, unhealthy dim sum appetizers that you should only eat once in a while. At around $5 for three pieces it’s more expensive than San Francisco Chinatown dim sum delis. Shrimp chive dumpling and pork shu mai pieces were large. Skip the shrimp har gow as it’s more dough than shrimp. Also, BBQ pork bun was dry and filling was small. Best are the huge shrimp balls at $6 for three. Grease was dripping down my mouth after eating the deep fried balls. Just remember to call your pharmacy for a refill on cholesterol medication the next day.

I was skeptical due to the reviews but a friend really spoke highly of this place due to the amount you get and how bug the dim sum is. I was very surprised and was very satisfied. I'm glad I tried this place. The service was good. The food was huge and it was delicious. I loved that I could get it to go instead of sitting in the restaurant with 4 kids.

came here several times before and this time would be my last. Food in Dim Sum section is not good. The sesame rolls were hard and oily. The cocktail buns were taskless.

OMG! Has to be the best Chinese deli ever. Very reasonably priced. The people there care. We live in Bakersfield and there is nothing like it here. It out does San Francisco.

Yes, they cheat and steal money from customers.Yesterday I bought 2 egg dumplings. They stormed after 6pm. Buy 2 get 1 free. They gave me 3 portions and charged me for 3 portions. Bought 35$ of pork and came back with only a few pieces of meat, the rest was fat and skin..this is the first time I have experienced such a fraudulent place. If only there were 0 stars.
I bought a roasted duck today and then found 1/3 of the chopped pieces are old and bad ones. Rest seem ok. Apparently they mixed in some bad pieces. Dishonest business, will never buy anything there again.

What a dishonest business here. I bought a whole roasted duck here today. When I got home and found out two whole duck legs were missing! I had bought roasted ducks here before many times. There were a few times I noticed the portions were significantly less than normal. But I had no proof and trusted the business there. But this time, it's too obvious. Not just missing two legs, also one of the wings was missing. They are thieves!!!. Will not go there again.

there's no option for 0 stars so they're only getting one because of lack of options. very bad experience, all dim sum and food and was cold and old and still try to sell me chicken wings that clearly have been sitting there for hours. we went to the other side with bbq duck and was rudely ignored. 20 minutes later I have my chance to order #7 two items over rice. I asked for duck and bbq ribs over rice. the man reached for the duck and starts cutting and then went under the table literally grabbing garbage(bbq ribs) and throws it on the counter. the lady next to him refuses to give me a fresh piece cause I only ordered 2 items. we spent nearly $100 in there and came out with a plate and 4 items. food was terrible. never going back again
