Very fast paced, traditional cart dim sum. Very busy. A good choice for anyone visiting the Chinatown

They have more dishes that are more closer to the authentic dim sum than other similar nearby restaurants on island only. They probably has the best Kai Lan in oyster sauce, Har Gaw and chicken feet in town. The dumpling's wrap and the lok fun's skin are all too thick. But in terms of sauce or seasoning, they are better than most of the dim sum on island.

Extremely tourist trap-esque. They bum rushed the table with below average cuisine and quickly marked our receipt with food. We were outside trying to read the menu, as to be prepared, but we were quickly shark attacked. The dim sum was below average. The char siu was decent but was actually ordered by accident in the tornado of "service." The aunties really took advantage of us

The best classic dimsum of all time. Have tried dimsum all over HK and SF Bay area and nothing else comes even close.

I always eat chimaki (glutinous rice) and xiao long bao and they are very delicious. As you sit there, the staff will drive you around with various things, so you need to be strong enough to refuse anything you don't want to eat ?

One big plus of this place is the food comes fast! So fast.. we didn’t get a chance to say no.Typical dim sum with push carts. My kids loved the Sui my and I liked their shrimp dumplings.Tea was nice and hot and they are constantly removing your empty dishes, which means more room for them to add new dishes on the table!Learn to say no fast or you will end up with over 20 dishes quickly!

Food is mediocre, better places around. Not worth the price for the attitude and bad service. First time there and I am not going back.

Dim sum was ok. Restaurant felt cluttered and area wasn't the best. The vibe just didn't feel right for us.
We love the Dim Sum at Fook Lam Restaurant. This is our go to restaurant for Dim Sum. They offered a variety of Dim Sum. We enjoyed the foods and the service.Parking: The restaurant gives validation for parking. Please ask the Cashier for validation stamp before leaving the restaurant.

Authentic. The dim sum, shu mai, bao, chicken feet, garlic butter seafood fried rice and look funn were delicious. Hidden on the walkway path on river street, it's easy to miss but definitely worth trying. Family styleService was very fast and friendlyParking: Super cheap

The dim sum were good, but once in awhile they would serves the ones in the showcases instead from the carts. We understand this is a seafood restaurant but there were limited dishes that have seafood allergies.

The food came out FAST. Pretty cheap and good. The service is great and is open to English speakers. I was a little worried because I can’t speak Chinese that well. The setting was like an authentic Chinese restaurant.
Very good dim sum! Delicious and fresh!
