Old Street Dim Sum and Hot Pot

A Chinese restaurant that sells Cantonese tea snacks and hot pot. We ordered stir-fried kale, stuffed eggplant, tender beef rice rolls, and barbecued pork buns. The taste was quite authentic. The restaurant was also very clean. There were booths at every location and it was very bright. , I prefer a brightly lit afternoon dining environment. If it is dim, I feel unappetizing.

Kid-friendliness: There is white porridge, stir-fried vegetables…

Got Uber eats and 3 orders of soup dumplings which were all completely raw. Talk about dangerous ??raw pork isn’t safe do better

I'm quite baffled by those who have praised the dim sum - I don't think they've had proper dim sum before. It's all frozen supermarket style dim sum that was been reheated.... not a single thing was made fresh. It was not pleasant and I will never have it again here, no matter how badly I crave it. I would rather drive 90 minutes to Flushing to get the real deal.

The hot pot however was quite nice for what it is. The broths are decently flavoured, although I do wish it was a punchier. They have a decent menu selection, but some aren't great quality for e.g. the squid (don't try that). It hits the spot for times where I don't have the time to go to Flushing. The sauce bar is missing some typical options that are found in normal hotpot restaurants... you can make do with that they have though. I BYO my own chili powder seasoning for dipping.

I'd definitely recommend this place for hot pot for locals. If you're looking for authentic, this won't be the place for you. Don't bother with the dim sum.

We used to love this restaurant, but we went tonight and were very disappointed in the changes they've made. 1) We were charged extra for the broth. So, the seafood hot pot is 49.99 per person. We were a party of three, so we got two types of broth, and we were charged an extra 10.00 for the broth alone. We've never been to a hot pot restaurant that charges extra for broth ever... anywhere.
2) Additionally, we got the seafood hot pot for the lobster, but we were limited to one lobster for the table. When we asked about this, we were told that it's always one lobster per table. What if there were more people at the table? We asked to speak to the owner, as our waitress told us she was there, but she refused to get her for us.
3) They also charged us for each soda refill, which we haven't experienced anywhere in a while as well.

The food was great, but it was way overpriced, bad experience with how they priced the buffet.

The owner was extremely rude and tried getting me to tip over 20% even though he didn’t serve us and we were ignored the whole time.

Went for lunch - staff just arriving at 11:05 am. Literally unlocking the door and turning on the lights. Ordered items off the dim sum menu and they were sadly underwhelming. No unique flavor (other than poor quality soy sauce). Everything the same color and limp texture - no veggies in the udon noodles. No refill on tea or water. Long wait between individually served dishes. This is why we try lunch first so we can avoid expensive dinner disappointments.

The dim sum dishes are so authentic, flavorful and full of surprises. I can easily say it’s the best in the New England area. The environment is clean and neat, the server is quick and friendly. Really enjoyed my visit here!

Lovely interior, staff, and food. They serve dimsum all day and the food was cooked to perfection. Nothing was over or undercooked, and all of our fried foods were not greasy whatsoever. The fried pork dumplings were delicious. The wait staff is very patient and attentive and made sure to help explain the ordering system in thorough detail. I would definitely recommend their dimsum and will be returning to try their hotpot!!
