We love coming here for the dim sum on weekends and their egg drop soup! They serve everything family style and they even hell you plate. It’s a very nice restaurant with traditional food. They are making it all fresh and the vegetables are always crisp and fresh in their dishes. We also like their approach to the duck- they completely butcher it and take away the complicated bones. They have very good hot tea, excellent shrimp dim sum and they give you a fruit with the check. I enjoy coming here with my family.

This place was recommended by a friend. Went there for Dim Sum, service was quick and easy. Selection was varied and plentiful. Quality of the dish and ingredients were good. The bake bao with char sui was perfect. Perfectlu baked, no paper on the bottom, which was nice. The bread was soft and sweet. Some placed add filler to there pork spare ribs like taro, not here. I appreciate that. I will definitely return in the future for a meal. Looking forward to eating dinner there. The Young Chow fried rice looked so good, didn't have a chance to try it. Thank you for a good meal.

Amazing food, fast service and friendly staff. This spot turns into dim sum heaven on weekends. Hot tea to go with the meal. Fried flounder is tasty. All in all a perfect spot to get some tasty Chinese food with the wifey on a regular basis. update 2: came here for dim sum on Father’s Day and place was packed. You know its authentic when 90% of the patrons are Asians. Dim sum was fresh, flavorful and well priced. For $45, this is a perfect weekend brunch.

Food has the best authentic Cantonese food in Monmouth county. Have been going to this restaurant since a kid and even it stands up better than some places in New York. If you are in the area, give this place a try. You will not regret
