Customer Reviews
I recently dined at here, and overall, it was a delightful experience! The ambiance was warm and inviting, with traditional Chinese decor that added to the dining experience. We started with the dim sum, one type of roll( forgot the name) which packed with fresh vegetables. The accompanying sweet and sour sauce was the perfect complement. For the main course, we ordered spicy fish and it was a big amount. The potato dish was savory, with perfectly cooked chili. We also tried the Fried Rice, which was flavorful and had a great mix of vegetables and protein. The portion sizes were generous, and we definitely left with leftovers!
Some of the best dim sum in the C-ID! Crispy spicy green beans with Chicken and XO sauce was divine! The shrimp dumplings and shu mai we equally as delicious. Service is great! We’ll be back!
Honestly one of the best places I’ve been. The prices were reasonable, the staff were extremely friendly, and the food was delicious. I would definitely come back. It is such a nice atmosphere to hang out with friends or family. 100% go here.
It's been a while since I was here last, so we decided to come here. Plus, the GF hasn't been here before. Looks like they cleaned the place up a bit. It looks better from the last time I was here. Sadly, the service is lacking. The guy at the register was doing a lot, and the one lady server was just serving. The food was really. I'm glad that never changed. I'm warning you now though. They take tips automatically, so when you get your bill the tip has already been added. 20% to be exact. The last time I came here, they never did that. I'm sorry, but your customers need to know that you're doing that. Tips are optional. Service wasn't the greatness, so for them to be doing that to customer isn't right. Sorry, but you're going to lose customer that way. Sad to say, but we don't plan to come back here. Unless that changes, you just lost us as customer. I really like their food. Also, we didn't see anything posted about the automatic gratuity, and legally they're suppose to have a sign or at least tell you about it. So if you decide to eat here, you won't be disappointed with the food, but be sure to bring up the tip on the recent. I usually base the tip off our service. You can opt not to pay it, and if you need more info on the matter it is available online.
I tried the beef wonton soup, the broth is flavorful and the beef is tender, the wontons are delicate. I also ordered shumai it’s also delectable. Highly recommend
