Open for dimsum during COVID19 period. Reservations recommended. Limited seating = social distancing. Be respectful and show up on time. Service and food remains exceptional. Good value .
Siu Mai the size of your fist! Super busy for dim sum , don't bother if you didn't make reservations !
Their appetizer platter is a must try. Their salt and pepper prawns are excellent as well (huge prawns and super tasty). Peking duck is just so-so.
Avoid the wait, make a reservation instead. Some of the best dim sum I’ve ever had in my life. Ha gao and siu mai are also massive.
Pork Belly with steamed buns , deep fried chicken , deep fried prawns . Oh, and the crab ! Read more
Must get their "guai fei bao ". BBQ pork buns with a buttery sugar topping. Not on the order sheet but they carry fresh dishes as specials during service.
Great dim sum and great value for group dinners .
Super crowded and chaotic. I do love the fried crabs with salted eggs . Other than that its always crowded and chaotic. Make reservations !!
Make a reservation if you're coming on Sunday morning. You will only have to wait 20min vs 2 hours :p
Make a reservation . You won't get seated at your reservation time but you'll be queued ahead of everyone without one.
If eating dimsum lunch , always call ahead for reservation preferably 1-2 hours ahead.
Ridiculously busy. Make reservations and then you can enjoy the huge dimsum
Best times to go to avoid long lineups are at 11am and 2pm.
Forget the shrimp dumplings , it is over rated and boring. Order the scallop shrimp dumplings instead!
Try the sharks fin soup ! LOL
Hmm lots of MSG in their dim sum but line up is still unbelievable with its price.
Massive shrimp dumplings and sui mai!
Siu Mai is bigger then the size of teacup!! Taste good too :)
Tables are so packed. It is a fire hazard.
Try the Cambodian Chicken Wings
Try the peking duck .
the pork chops with walnuts are amazing
Supreme Dumplings are not bad!
