Bland, bad service

Best price in the area for yum cha (dim sum)! Foods pretty good. Just that business too good needs to wait a little for table !

Came here for dinner around 6 pm and had a seat pretty quickly, but at 7 pm, there was a line, so it was best to come here early.The food we ordered was tasty, but the fried fish was incredibly salty. The waiters were a bit on the rude side, but it's nothing that I'm not used to in a Chinese restaurant.Overall, it's not bad, and food is good. Great place with family or a big group of people.Parking: Parking is tough here since it's on the main road. You can get lucky or drive into a residential street and find parking there. Better chance.

Came here on a Sunday morning for dim sum and the dishes did not disappoint. We didn't need to wait despite being a large group but we did arrive pretty early, around 10am. This dishes came out quickly even when we requested certain foods. A great place for authentic dim sum.

Very mid dim sum.My group and I trickled in pairs at around 1PM on a weekend, and it was funny the workers automatically knew to associate us together. The tea was the most disappointing. If you're going to a yum cha at a dim sum restaurant, the least they can do is make tea that isn't too concentrated or dark. Our tea was very dark and heavily bitter. The workers here were the most persistent I've seen so far in selling to us the food in their carts. Being it was always the same lady lol. But her service was appreciated, as she was able to find for us every dish we requested. I only remember the Chicken Feet having the most flavor. A good majority felt like it was lacking something. My favorite dish like the Bean Curd Roll tasted off, with not enough sauce. The Steamed Malay Sponge Cake was not as creamy, custardy, or soft. The Albert Yip pieces were way too huge, that it made them tough to chew. I'm not sure I would call the Mexico Bun a bun. On the top, the appearance, texture, and taste was delicious. But what happened on the bottom? There was like no breading at all, with only the thinnest piece of flour to support the mountainous top part. The appearance of the dim sum also wasn't there. A lot of the baked fried foods that you can already see from the carts looked very dry and doughy, that I can understand why the cart ladies were trying so hard to market them to people. I could go on, but I would be very disappointed if this was my first dim sum experience in Brooklyn. 8th Ave Chinatown has better dim sum, so please don't give up on Brooklyn yet if we shared the same sentiments here!

They almost killed me, I asked for sticky rice dim sum and they said there was chicken and sausage in it. I broke it open and found shrimp inside.Not cool when you have severe allergies to shrimp.No dim sum items shown on the menu like some other spots. So, it's guess work when it comes to ordering since you don't know what they have.

Need reservations on weekends!! We got lucky and was able to walk in after a short wait. Service is top notch, they cleared the old dishes, tea is always hot and there are many wait staff making sure your needs are attended to. Food, we got the double lobster fried sticky rice, fried white fish (these are seasonal) but other plates are delicious as well. Sorry no photos, too busy eating

Best time to come for lunch on the weekends if you're not doing dimsum is around 1:30PM. Noticeably quieter and you won't be waiting long for seats!Service was really nice and helpful. There are a lot of things not on their printed menu that you can ask the waiters about and they'll give you recommendations if they don't have certain things too. Most importantly, the prices are soo sooo reasonable for the dishes they served.We wanted the garlic scallops vermicelli but they said they didn't have that, and recommended us these giant oysters instead. They were freaking ginormous!! The length of my hands/face. Worth every penny for sure. They are under seasoned though so you should ask for some soy sauce or grab some sauce from another entree dish. But very plumb and fresh. Literally every table around us was eying our oysters, oohing and salivating haha. Sliced Conch with Tofu: fried beautiful, not too salty, seasoned well. Loved the juicy scallops with this dish as wellTai Shan Cauliflower with Preserved Meat: the preserved meat is super fatty in this dish but flavor is very good. Oily though, be warned! Wished that they could've cut some of the cauliflower a little smaller, those were stalks! Lamb Casseole: wahhhh sooo tender and flavorful! Definitely should get this one as well. Saucy and the lamb doesn't taste gamey at all due to the rice spice seasoning. Super generous portion

Decent selection of dim sum. If you don't see something, you should ask one of the cart ladies, and they can grab it for you. The shrimp and beef rice rolls are not as smooth as other places. The Har gow and shu mai are good.
