Authentic dim sum with the ladies and the carts. They also walk around with trays of food too. Food was good, one of the BEST Shumais I’ve ever had, not the best beef balls I’ve ever had. The vegetables they were walking around with were good but they were cold. Very lovely and nice staff.

Classic old school Cantonese dim sum style from the 80s. Food was good. Service was fine Everything else was basic, nothing fancy. I was a little worried about the price after reading the reviews but I found the pricing very reasonable. 5 of us spent $80 before tip for the following dim sum: Shrimp dumpling Siu mai BBQ pork bun Malay cake Sticky rice Salted egg yoke bun Egg tart Daikon cake Beef balls Beef rice rolls Beef tripe with daikon Beef short ribs Traditional dim sum places don't necessarily advise how much the dishes are, so does this place. The dim sum are broken down into small, medium, large , special tiers. Everything above were in large or special tier as expected.

Very nice waiters and waitresses. Some of the best I ever seen in hospitality. This is an iconic and classical dim sum place. if you go to Chinatown, this should be the number one dim sum spot for you. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

As everyone else is saying, this place is very mediocre. The food is ok. The service is ok. The ha gow (shrimp dumplings) get stuck to the basket so when you try to pick it up, the shrimp just comes out of the skin. There are two other dim sum places across the street, so I'll just try them next time.

I was ripped off by my own people. We had six dishes and the total for the dishes was 50$. The dim sum was not good and the place was dark and dingy. I wouldn’t recommend going unless you want to be ripped off by the old lady at the front up charging every English speaking customer.
Careful of the front desk lady. She’s notorious for overcharging customers an extra plate or two of dim sum. Make sure you count your card correctly and the price.

Decent dim sum! They have dim sum carts they push around with food inside which is fun. They can be pretty pushy with trying to give you cold food, which is a bit annoying. Everything was pretty good, albeit not always hot, but very decently priced. The tea they serve with the meal was delicious. They also don’t let you split the bill on multiple cards as an FYI

I’ve been a longtime fan of the food here and have been coming for years. The only downside is that if you go for dim sum around noon or 1 PM, some dishes might not be as hot. I went on Mother’s Day and ordered a plate of fried shrimp that didn’t seem very fresh—I had already taken one, so I couldn’t return it. However, a very kind server noticed and offered me a plate of egg tarts on the house, which I really appreciated. Overall, it’s a great spot for some dim sum and a casual get-together.
