We wanted to check out this spot after seeing such good ratings on Yelp when searching for dim sum. It's located near the dog park and residential area. It's located upstairs between other nearby store fronts. Some parts of the restaurant looked to be outdated or in remodeling phase. We got seated towards the back nearby the window with a great view of the Chicago buildings. More of the "upscale" dim sum type spot. You will not find staff pushing dim sum carts. We ordered through the tablet and food came out reasonably fast and piping hot. An order of Sui mai comes with 5 pieces instead of 4 unlike other places! No wonder the price for 1 order seemed a bit high $6-7. I guess the price and portion justifies it. Sui mai was plump and juicy. My fave! The shrimp noodle roll and pork noodle roll were alright. I wished the rice noodle roll were thinner. Slightly thicker than I would prefer. I liked the pork one more than the shrimp. My friend ordered the chicken feet and seemed to enjoy it. I ordered the tofu skin with pork & shrimp. It was wrapped in the tofu skin and it was my second favorite item here. Service was pretty good. Although the staff doesn't look like the "friendliest," they did come by to refill out waters and bus our dirty dishes. No complaints. Good food and we both left satisfied. Yum yum dim sum.

So I was super excited about staying in Chinatown and their local restaurants. The ambiance and decor was great. The server seemed upset and irritable from the time we sat down. We tipped him well regardless while I don't think he earned it. 1. Service was 1/10 2. Food came out fast 9/10 3. The food quantity was very generous 10/10 4. The vegetables weren't seasoned. The kitchen staff banked on the sauce to season and add flavor to the food Do not recommend. You can get better or similar food from a mall restaurant with better service.

Very delicious food !! We ordered a hot and sour soup with pork followed by chicken fried rice and chicken in back bean sauce. The complementary green tea that they served was also absolutely delicious. They also have a full bar with some pretty interesting cocktails.Dietary restrictions: Not many options available for vegetarians or vegans.Kid-friendliness: Kids love the food here.
Good quality dim sum in Chicago city though quite pricey but save a trip to Chinatown.

It is on the top floor of a building. The stir-fried vegetable occurs to me hometown taste. The 燒臘肉 is tender and good to eat with rice. The 蘿蔔糕 is super tasty and authentic.

Giving this a 5 star review because the portion size of the lunch meal is a great deal for the price and the food was good too. I had the general tsao.

I have been here before but my recent visit was disappointing. Service was good but the wrappers on the pot stickers were too thick as well as being undercooked.

One of the best places for dim sum hands down the best in Chicago. My wife and I enjoy the place and just good food for what you pay for.
I was originally so excited to try this place! The ingredients they use seem to be fresh, and the food seems to be well prepared however, it lacks flavor. This has to be the most bland Chinese food I’ve ever eaten. It taste so bad that I wish I didn’t live far because i would have take it back. I will not be coming back!!!

My go-to place for Chinese food in Chicago! It is the best Cantonese food in Chicago. There are multiple locations for this restaurant and the one here is the best. For the crispy belly pork in Macau style, I always ask if it is crispy. It needs to be crispy for the best experience - crispy skin, juicy and tender meat. The service is also nice - quick, efficient. Robust Chinese tea is presented when one sits down. Free cookie and fortune cookie are presented at the end of the meal. The store decoration is very interesting. It showcases the traditional Chinese art in a modern way. The restaurant is surrounded by Chicago high-rise, so it is also amazing to take pictures outside.
