The location of this restaurant is interesting as your access to it is from a street that looks residential on the left and then... industrial parkway on the right. Nestled inside of what looks like business offices is this Hong Kong style Chinese restaurant/dim sum eatery where you get a combination of Hong Kong Cafe and dumplings as your choice of meals and eats. This place ismedium sized on the inside but is very family and home feeling but on the rather narrow and tight side in terms of space andtable positions with options to eat outside on the patio. It is not a polished environment but more of an open format. Somethinglike what you might see in San Francisco's Chinatown restaurants so expect to be eating right out where you can see the serversand the cooks and the waiters doing the work of what may traditionally be behind a counter or hidden behind the kitchen wall.This is not a problem as I've often believed that the food speaks for itself and that the presentation is something that can bejust part of the background as long as it does not interfere with your eating experience. Unfortunately on today's visit therewas a bit of a shouting match going on between what appeared to be the manager and a customer who ordered food online and stillhad not received his food after 40 minutes. The manager seemed to have started the shouting match in the middle of our mealabout 2 tables away and she seemed to lack empathy for the customer. Our friend had indicated that ordering food online fromthis place was spotty and that her experience was says you're better off phoning the order in and avoiding the online experienceall together. Now a note on the food itself. This dim sum is your classic selection of dishes but not the classic dim sumexperience, meaning they don't push the carts around for you to see what's available. Rather like many other dim sum restaurantsnow you choose from a list. Check off what you want to order and they prepare it and bring it out. Read more

Overpriced, Terrible walnut prawns lunch special. I think it was $16? An insane amount of rice with a little bit of prawns. The... rest of their food is good though other than this dish Read more

Got dim sum here. Each entree is minimum around $5. I thought the shumai was nice and juicy. Tofu Skin roll is also decent but a... little oily. Order on a paper and items are brought out. Read more

Good place for Dim Sum with very reasonable price. They offer you both inside and outside sitting. Service is good too. Highly... recommend the Dim Sum menu. They don’t have the carts as you see in most of other places so you will need to order your foodfirst and wait for them to come. Read more

The Food Heard about this place from friends, and got a chance to check it out for lunch. We got a decent sized group, and... ordered a good variety from the menu. Got the typical dim sum dishes and some other items, along with dessert. - Steamed ShrimpDumpling (Har Gow, ??) - Steamed Shrimp & Pork Dumpling (Shiu Mai, ??) - Steamed BBQ Pork Bun (?????) - Steamed Shanghai StyleDumpling (XiaoLongBao, ???) - Shrimp Rice Noodle Roll (?????) - Etc., etc., etc. They have some unique dishes here that I've notseen in other restaurants. - Crispy Fried Milk - Fresh Mango Mochi All the dishes were fresh and pretty good. They also came outpretty quick after we ordered. The Miscellaneous The restaurant itself is within an interesting plaza, surrounded by businessbuildings. The interior gives off a different vibe than most other Chinese restaurants. But it still has a decent amount ofseating. We went during lunch hours and they were quite busy. The service was normal, but they did a good job of seatingcustomers and cleaning up efficiently. They have quite the extensive menu with a wide selection of dishes. The prices are aboutaverage or slightly high for a sit down dim sum, but not unreasonable. Pretty decent place and would come back with friendsagain. Read more

Their salted egg pineapple buns were really good! That is a rare find, and it was done really well. I ate it so fast that I... forgot to take pictures! Their special crispy shrimp rice rolls were my next favorite. Read more
