Unironically, the worst dining experience of my life.
Random charges added to our bill. Things we ordered kept not arriving.
The food was bland and made us sick.
Do not eat here.

Ick. Ordered dim sum which is non existent in CT unfortunately. The tea had oil in it. It was served in melamine which isn’t healthy for hot things. The shrimp tasted old. And the rice flour dumpling had a grainy crumbling texture to it. Nothing like I’ve ever tasted before. Overall everything was just disgusting. They let someone in with a pitbull and the owners kept telling it to sit so it wasn’t even well behaved and definitely not a service animal. Overall gross. Will never go back and will have to go to Flushing for dim sum I guess.

The quality and temperature of the food change. The congee wasn't piping hot like it normally was it was also missing ginger. I had to personally go up to ask for ginger. At first they told me no ginger. Then they gave me sliced ginger. It was just warmish. The steamed shrimp rice roll on top was cold and the bottom was warmish. The fried chives shrimp dumplings were also warmish.

Have you seen the pike behind this restaurant!? I wouldn't eat here even if you paid me. Got roaches like crazy that whole parking lot and all those stores. So don't be surprised if you're bringing extra friends home 😉!

Absolutely loved this place! The dim sum was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked — every bite was a little piece of heaven. The service was just as impressive as the food; the staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome. Everything came out quickly, and they were happy to make recommendations that ended up being our new favorites. Can’t wait to come back and try even more dishes!

Positives first: the booths are private; the digital menu is convenient; and the selection of dim sum dishes is numerous. All you have to do is tick off pictures of food on the tablet and the items are quickly brought to the table. Very tech modern.
The problem with many of the dishes is that they were drowned in sauce, which made it super salty and near inedible. It would have been better to have served the sauce on the side. The soup dumplings (xiaolongbao) were also too salty and the skin was too thick. Still, the Chao Zhou style steamed dumplings and steamed sticky rice weren’t bad. All in all, very average dim sum.

Very cute place with great service. Our waitresses were super nice and brought us everything we ordered with a smile. The food was alright, nothing to die for and the price was pretty heavy
I love coming here.. since it's way better than driving to Queens or White Plains for dimsum. it's still good although I think the quality of the dishes aren't the same from the last time I was here. Service is still great and restaurant is clean. The salt and pepper prawns were the bomb and the roast duck was a little dry. And always love the chicken feet and spareribs dimsum. The shumai is a hit or miss.
