Customer Reviews
Enjoyed dim sum on a Sunday morning and arrived 30 minutes after the restaurant opened. Dim sum was already in full effect and we had to wait 15 minutes to be seated. Once seated the army of carts did not disappoint. In addition to the carts of food we also ordered roast pork fried rice and beef pan fried noodle which was amazing! I highly recommend this spot and would absolutely return. If you want the dim sum experience get there when they open! The wait can be long.
This is our favorite restaurant of Cantonese cuisine. We mostly go there for dinner. It is almost an hour’s drive from home. We would order much more food than the two of us could consume, so that we could take some home. Our favorite dishes are their blanched chicken (so tender and delicious, really the best in NJ), sour plum pork ribs, lobster and fried glutinous rice, bitter melon and beef, fried tofu and fish filet in clay pot. There should be more great dishes, but we love these so much that we simply could not not order them when we go there. If there are say 4 or more in our party, order the double/triple boiled soup a day or so in advance. They have several choices for the soup. Any one of them is good. You can choose between small or regular size. Last time, there were 5 of us. We chose the small size and there was more than enough to have two bowls or more each. Loved it.
One of the best Cantonese meals I have had in recent memory, every dish was a delight, flavorful, every element of each dish had flavor. Noodles and vegetables in each dish were nicely al dente with a little pop. Dishes not swimming in sauce which I so appreciated. And veggies - I'll repeat, perfectly prepared, on the edge of crispness, colorful and full of flavor. I hope to try again soon and hope for a similar dining experience. Many large round tables with lazy susans so great for large groups. The wait staff is efficient and very friendly. Delicious sweet orange slices and fortune cookies are provided with your check. I don't believe I tried the more popular menu items so I'm excited to try some additional dishes. We went for dinner, Dim Sum goes until 3pm and I would imagine it is excellent. So strike that, I'm not going for dinner next - maybe I will try Dim Sum - tomorrow!!
The place has improved itself over time. Our go-to place for local Cantonese cuisine. My extended family which is primarily Cantonese are now willing to travel an hour to come here for food. The dishes are generally very good. They have good lunch specials as well. Give it a try!
The food was some of the best Chinese food I've had in NJ so far. Every dish was a hit. I love a more authentic Chinese restaurant, and it reminded me of dining in Flushing Queens. It was also BYOB, so that was a plus. The atmosphere is not modern, trendy, or swanky. They could use a remodeling, but the service and the great food make up for it. They will be our new go-to for Chinese food.
