Seng Seafood Restaurant

first dim sum meal in a very long time at seng seafood today. we'd been once or twice before and had really liked it (probably a 4 or 5 star review if i rated my other visits in prior years). their prices used to be the same for all dish sizes, and presumably is still the same. our bill came out to $55 before tip for 10 items (which fed 3 adults and 1 child and are definitely not all pictured here ... was too hungry). the bill did include two shrimp cheung fun (rice rolls) which are usually pretty pricey at your typical dim sum establishment. all dishes were delicious, but we were quite disappointed by how limited the selections were today (there seemed to be way more in our previous visits as well as what is listed on their website). not sure if it might have been because we were visiting a little later in the day by dim sum standards (~1:00 pm). there was also virtually no service provided (e.g., water was never refilled) but the cart ladies were really nice in trying to help find the dishes that we wanted. we had made a reservation over the phone, but it didn't seem like they understood once we arrived. thankfully, we didn't need to wait long as we were put at an eight-person table with another party of four. considering the clientele visiting, you know that the dim sum is authentic. certainly can't go wrong here with your basic dim sum selections, though may opt to go earlier next time to see if there are more options or visit another place for more variety.

I came here with my uncle 70th Birthday. He chose the restaurant. I was a bit skeptical if the food is going to be any good. It’s not the top, and not the worst. I enjoyed the food. My kids ate and ate. As long as my kids like the food, I am happy m. :) my favorites are the pig intestines with fired milk. Highly recommend this restaurant in the out of the way place in Chinatown.

Super affordable dimsum spot! Expect a small wait for the weekend brunch hours. This place fills up and we took that as a good sign. The food was great and the service was not bad!

This place was packed but we got seated relatively quickly in the late morning with a reservation for our party of 8. I loved everything we tried - shrimp dumplings, fried dough, fried shrimp, the list goes on. The service was fast and I will say it really really helped having someone in our party who spoke Cantonese but we did get by with a lot of pointing and earnest nodding. Honestly there are so many options I'm just gonna have to come back here again.

This place is okay for dim sum. I found the restaurant more visually appealing than the food. The restaurant looks old and worn out from the outside and staircase. However, inside was spacious, pretty, and modern looking. I was there around 12:30pm, which is towards the tail end of dim sum brunch. I didn't see much variety both in hot food and sweet pastries. I also didn’t see any vegetarian dishes! It could have been the time I was there. Next time I will go there earlier to be sure there is more variety. Waiters run around a lot, so you need to grab their attention for anything you need, like water and extra food off the menu. The waitors and managers are somewhat brusque as to be expected in Chinatown.
