The website says they are open and so does google but after a hour drive, we found out that the resturant is no longer open and has become a furniture and decor store.

One of the best meals of my life. Come hungry with a bunch of friends and enjoy a family style food experience you will never forget.

Best Dim Dum in the United States without a question, a little pricier however worth every Penny.

We had our wedding banquet there in 1984. Still the best dim sum in Philadelphia.

Horrible atmosphere, shadey interiors, lastly but not the last horrible food eating there has made me sick for 4 days, price was the most concerning thing about it. Lastly the service was horrible.

Im only giving 3 star because the owner is nice. The waitresses were really rude, and she just rolled her eyes when my mom asked for food recommendation. I left tips for them anyway because of the tip culture. But in any Asian country, you get much better service without paying the tip.

Went for Dim Sum and it was a horrible experience. The service was incredibly slow and the servers indifferent at best, surly at worst. Customers were actually trying to help each other figure out what things were. The items in the carts were well on their way to cold by the time someone left them near your table. The food tasted ok, but had bits of gristle, bone, shrimp shell in them. You expect some things to still be on the bone, but not breaded, fried chicken!

Our go to place for dimsum in philadelphia. Now I only gave 3 stars because of the poorly maintained bathrooms. But I would rate their food 5 stars due to it's affordability and taste. The management needs to really have a good look into the bathrooms though. Do not go if you can hold it in!

Bad to average dim sum. Staff could not possibly be less engaged. Asking about anything was impossible. Customers were wandering around to find the carts where they had been left in the aisle. We were looking for a successor to The Imperial Inn and this restaurant was good back in the day, but it was dreadful on this visit.
Average Dim Sum place in the heart of Chinatown. The decor was nice and intricate. It feels like you are being transported to China. Food was mediocre at best. You can tell most of the dumplings were probably outsourced to an external supplier as they are not freshly made in house.

Good sit-down restaurant with easy access to the rest of Chinatown. The food isn't quite as good as some other restaurants in the area - the sesame chicken was a little bland - but the alcohol selection was good for Chinatown and fairly cheap. I recommend starting with the dumplings and a Tsingtao.

My son and I love this place. Good food, good service, fair prices. Not typical Chinese food - if you want different they have it.

My family's been going here since the 90s, their food and dim sum is always excellent. Now and then we try a new dish and it never fails to please, love this place!

Horrible service! They asked where we would like to seat, we said it didn't matter. So they basically stuck us in the corner. They gave us one menu for three people, so we had to request 3 menus The menu said 12 chicken wings, they gave us 6 wings. When we inquired about it, they handed us a menu with tape over the 12! The were out of Wonton soup at 4:30 in the afternoon, so I ordered chicken with corn soup. I had to basically inquire about otherwise I would have never gotten it. Also, my husband never got his entree and had to inquire about it at least 3 times. They winded up just boxing it up to take home. It was the worst dining experience ever and we will never return.
