Excellent food, especially if you go early for dim sum, and the staff is polite and efficient. I usually get an order of string beans or whatever green veg I see first, then we pick from the rotating carts. I'ma say yes to everything that has shrimp. Lol. You can request custom orders during sim sum hours, too, FYI.
I've been there at night for traditional ordering, and that was really good, as well, but I like a little bit of everything, so I love dim sum.
Impressive space, too -- The chandeliers always catch my eye. I've seen several large events there, and there's a private dining room as well.
Really nice dim sum place in the NE Philly region! Huge banquet hall, with nice ambiance. This place was fullll on a Saturday morning with patrons of all ages. Quick service, large variety of options (their dessert menu is truly impressive!!), good food, and kind staff. Everything is very affordable too. I came with a group of 5 total and we got close to 25 dishes to share, and split among us the price came to ~$25 each! A remarkable deal given the amount of food we tried.
Shrimp dumplings, fried taro, and spare ribs were good (And I’m very particular about these 3 dim sum dishes). Pineapple buns and pandas sesame balls were truly extraordinary. I do have to add that their vegetarian and gluten free options were quite sparse. Other than that, it’s a very delicious and lovely place to spend a weekend morning with a group of loved ones!
My wife and I frequented this joint every week for several years. Invited friends and family over for the quality of their food. But since it’s changed management, some quality on the Dimsum and lunch specials have fallen well below expectations. Service remains excellent but I really came for the food…so, won’t be back for a while.
I had ordered General Tso's chicken on Grub Hub from here and it looked tasty but it was not good. The chicken was very fatty so I ended up putting it into the trash. This is not going to be my go to place.
Discriminatory service, please don't go there. The food is getting worse and worse. It’s better to go to Yinquan. The service quality is very good ?. The food is delicious too?.

Best dim sum spot in the area, there is always a wait and it isn’t the most upscale or anything but has the classic dishes

Noisy and crowded... The way a dimsum place should be. Go after 11 AM to get more selections since that's the time they start serving the lunch food (seafood, noodles...)

The food is delicious, but the service attitude is super bad, especially a tall woman who was very aggressive in getting ice water. In the end, we left a tip of 10 dollars because we went with American friends and didn't want others to think we were... Tipping is not required in Chinese restaurants, but the experience is really poor.

I really used to love the food here, but they won’t let a service animal in. I have my dog licensed as a certified service animal and got her well-trained because of my mental issues. The manager said he was going to call the police because he did not want to get in trouble, which I don’t think this is part of police’s responsibility. He can totally ask me to leave directly. The attitude they had made me feel really uncomfortable and anxious. I can’t stop crying as now I’m writing this comment, please help me.

First time trying, and the food was amazing, and the service was very welcoming. Can not wait to come back in the day and try dim sum.
