My boyfriend and I recently visited here for a dinner out, and we truly had one of the best dinner’s ever here. The food was amazing, the most authentic I have had here in Pittsburgh. The service was also amazing, we always were taken care of even if we did not request anything. Constant service, VERY nice employees, and good food…what’s more to like? This place deserves way more business than it gets.

The prices on the menu made me dubious and the diner-like interior more so, but this place is a banger. Do not sleep on the BBQ Pork Buns because they are *LEGIT*, as are the shumai. This is too expensive for me to eat on the regular, but it will absolutely be a treasured treat for when I have the wallet for it. Best comprehensive dim sum I've had in Pittsburgh in a decade.

We came across this place by accident after hiking 'til dark. We both love dim sum so we thought we'd try it and we're glad we did.

Service was friendly and they were happy to explain their process for ordering. Everything was good but the standouts were the pork belly steamed buns and the egg custard tarts. I've had the steamed bao in lots of places (we used to sell them on our food truck), some good and some not so good. I was curious about these because they had spinach on them. These were different than any I've had anywhere else and they were very good. I'm also a fan of the egg tart (there are versions of this in cuisines from around the world, especially Asia and South America). These were far and away, the best I've ever had. The texture was so smooth and the flavor was sweeter than most but not overly so, with a touch of vanilla (also unusual for this dessert). It was reminiscent of creme brulee.

If you like dim sum, try them. Even if you don't like dim sum, try those buns and tarts!

Just not for us only had a few things but we didn't finish any of it. Still it's a nice place. Can't recommend either way only ate there once.

We were lucky enough to find this spot after searching for Thai-related food in the area while going to see a movie in the North Hills. None of us had experienced Dim Sum before, and this was a great first experience. The restaurant was very clean, the staff were incredibly friendly, and the food was delicious!

We went there multiple times and every time it was great! The food is delicious and fresh, and the staff is super attentive and accomodating. It is also one of the few places in Pittsburgh that offers gluten-free options and customization.

The service was superb ! it is advised you reserve a table especially for dinner during weekends as the place can be busy within a short duration. I had the weekend special mixed platter , for drinks i had the bobba tea / sweet melon, we had barbecue pork dumplings for starters and it was quite good ! I would recommend their fried rice anytime as an accompaniment for their meals....definitely worth a repeat visit ? ❤
NB : the portions are huge you may have to go carry!

Great food. Perfectly clean, comfortable dining area. Good service. The Crab Rangoon stand out a bit. The pork and mushroom fried dumplings were good. We had shredded chicken fried rice and the pork BBQ fried rice. Both were really good. There's a smokiness to the fried rice that is excellent. I'm not sure what was BBQ about the pork, but there was a ton of it.

There are authentic menu items and, apparently, Saturday and Sunday they have a lot of additional menu items available.

Would definitely go back.

Parking: Lots of parking as this is in a large strip mall. Camper/trailer friendly.

We ordered through DoorDash and got the popcorn chicken, Dan Dan noodles, fried rice, and spicy wontons. Everything is SO DELICIOUS. It was also delivered in a really nice reusable thermal bag. We will 100% be coming back for more.
