I wouldn’t say this was the best dim sum I’ve ever had but it was good. Pricing on everything was also reasonable. Every staff member we encountered were very nice and service was very quick. One thing I will note is that they have a decent amount of vegetarian options which can be hard to find at dim sum restaurants. Everything did have flavor (the noodles were a little bland but great quantity). If I had to choose my favorite, it probably would be the shrimp and chive dumpling. My least favorite was the fried shrimp ball. It had a spongy consistency that was strange to me but again, it still was flavorful. They have a really yummy dumpling sauce and the chili oil that sits on the table was delicious as well.

Food was very delicious and flavorful, my only thing is that salt and pepper shrimp should be peeled before battered/fried to get all the flavor from seasoning. I know some people like to eat the shell, but I think people should be given a choice between shell and shell-less. Everything was good and the servers were nice, although short in service.

First time visit, and I ordered my barometer dish on how I judge a new-to-me Asian restaurant: General Tso. It was pleasantly sweet and thick sauce - and plenty enough to flavor the rice. I have yet to understand why some “fried rice” is daffodil yellow, but the extra sauce helped that as well. I could have used more spice in my General. I appreciated the two sizable pieces of broccoli that were in my order. General Tso is never known for its vegetable content so this garnish was a bonus. But the real star was the fried dumplings. That’s what I will be thinking about for a long time to come. Crisp and delicious. And the dipping sauce had really good ginger flavor.

Always a great meal from here. Cooked fresh and great size servings. Food is always delicious and full of flavor. Staff is super friendly and helpful.
