Came here the weekend following Lunar New Year. The nearby Fortune Palace restaurant was packed, so I came here instead and there was no wait at all for my party of 2. I've been here several times with my family in the past and it's not the best, but good enough that we would come back. Some dishes are better than others, but overall pretty decent. Out of the 5 dimsum dishes ordered this time, my favorite was the siu mai-- flavorful and meaty. The beef cherng fun (rice roll) and lo mai gai was good too. Service was good and our food came out quickly. When we sat down, literally 3 different ppl asked us what tea we wanted.

Food - 3.5/5 Came here on a Saturday for dim sum and ordered 5 dishes. The beef cherngfun was good, better than most; rice rolls were bouncy, the beef was seasoned well. Everything else was mediocre though. The eggplant with shrimp paste was okay, eggplant was slightly undercooked and not as flavorful. The sticky rice was also under seasoned but had everything you'd expect; the eggplant yolk, lap cherng and pork pieces. The radish cake was a little too starchy and didn't have much radish in it. The siu mai was actually really good; had a lot of filling and cooked well. Service - 4/5 Service was good, dimsum ladies were attentive but a little pushy and the waiters refilled our teapot frequently. Ambiance - 4/5 It is your typical dimsum spot; loud, crowded but that's what you typically get on a Saturday for dimsum. Restaurant was clean.

I have been to this restaurant many times and the food is great. Sometimes we take it home . Other times we eat at the restaurant. We thoroughly enjoyed our dim sum experience, savoring shrimp, beef, and cilantro steamed rice rolls, along with clear dumplings featuring shrimp and beef. The assortment of mini buns, including pineapple, pork, and beef, added delightful variety. Dim sum is an endless delight, perfect for sharing with family and friends.

Came here for family dinner.. Food is pretty good & great service. Everything that we ordered was very tasty with good flavor. They have second floor private room. Plus they have elevator for elder to take if they can't walk up to the stairs. But the elevator is very slow. Overall, I would come back again for dinner. Good food with good price.

I dined at this restaurant with my in laws this past Sunday evening. We had a big group so we reserved a room. This was my first time dining here and it was nice. The service was good and fast. We started off with a fish soup which the service staff ladles into bowls for everyone. Then we ordered some seafood dishes. They were tasty and good quantity for the price. I recommend everyone to check out this place.

Came here a few Saturdays ago with family (in laws). 5 adults + 1 baby in high chair. It was rainy and busy day. Once seated, it took awhile for them to get the highchair as they had forgotten about us. Everything is ordered through paper. We check off or tally up the items we want and flag a server over to grab the order sheet. They don't give you another order sheet- you would have to ask if you want more food. It was so busy that they were not as attentive as we would have like. Had to flag servers down to get tea refills and remove empty dishes. They even took awhile to get our order sheet. All the rice rolls (except beef) came out so late that we thought they forgot and was about to ask for another order sheet. They had an interesting dish- red rice rolls with spring rolls. We got it for my vegetarian sister in law and it was actually good. The spring rolls were still crispy inside. Overall a typical dim sum place with a few interesting dishes.

Our go-to authentic Chinese restaurant in Brooklyn! We come here for dim sum and dinner all the time! Great service and lots of seating available, with private rooms upstairs as well. We came last night for a family friend's birthday and ordered our favorites! We got the following and all come with a huge shareable portion! Steamed chicken feet: A classic Chinese dish that is also served during dim sum Pork chops: Seasoned wonderfully with lots of flavors! Fried super well with lots of crunch. Crispy chicken: Delicious and tasty, also comes with a sauce Veal chop: Cooked so tender and drenched in the BBQ sauce that is super sweet Pan fried flounder: Not pictured, but another classic. Super crunchy and flavorful, comes with soy sauce base Fried squid with cashews: Also not pictured, but a great starter. Fried perfectly and well seasoned House special fried rice: Delicious, comes with diced salted fish that adds a nice salty flavor Overall, we always recommend this place and come for all special dinners out with family!

I've dined here a couple of times before covid and there was really only one item that I loved while everything else was just ok. However, came here for outdoor dining the other day and I fell in love with the quality of the dimsum! I didn't order the usuals, so maybe those are still just ok Outdoor dining - we sat down before realizing that it's not theee best spot to socialize as it's directly underneath the D subway line so you'll be hearing a lot of rumbling. You do have to wait around a bit for service because it's busier inside and the waiter doesn't come out as often. My three must orders are: Baked Salted Egg Yolk Custard Bun (aka pineapple liu sha bao): unsurprisingly, not a lot of dimsum restaurants have this on the menu, so I'm always eggstra eggcited when I do find it. It's super runny and a mess to eat because it always ends up dribbling down my fingers to my plate, but the salted egg yolk custard is just delicious. I like it with the pineapple bun crust because of that extra crumbly-ness Baked Crispy Durian Cake: haha looks like I love their baked items! Love the thin crispy skin on this combined with the soft, creamy durian filling. Durian isn't too potent so your friends who normally can't stand the funk can also taste at ease :) Taro Puffs: another crispy outside! Good amount of taro plus salty filling that consists of some juicy pork. I always avoid ordering this at the bakeries because it's never crispy enough, but this was perfect Others I've tried that are also good: stuffed eggplant, black pepper short ribs, chicken feet, and the deep fried jalapeno stuffed with shrimp deserves a mention since they do it a little differently than most places. On top of the shrimp paste, they added rice to it when deep frying that gives it more of a crunch. Only thing that I didn't like would be the snowy skin durian. It comes cold and wrapped with plastic. I was expecting more of a mochier skin/wrapping, but the skin is too flour-y and not chewy. I ended up just digging out the durian filling to eat
