| - I think this restaurant is confused. It tries to be fusion, but is not creative enough to create amazing dishes, and it is not authentic enough for been a good Chinese restaurant.
Atmosphere is dark and moody, like back of alleyway Chinatown vibe going on there.
Went with friend and got Luckee basket, Xiao Long Baos and Gold Sand Seafood. The Luckee basket taste bland, honestly you can get better dimsum at Szechuan Express. The Xiao Long Bao I was excited to try but feel like I want to spit out the food, trust me, there are better places with Xiao Long Baos. And the Gold Sand mixed seafood - again, I think I had the exact same thing from Szechuan Express when they are closing down at end of day for like $5, not $26 like this was here. They brought out dessert menu but we quickly went no thanks and left. If you want authentic dimsum, this isn't it. Chinatown and uptown places are better. If you want unique dimsum, try Crown Princess or Casa Impérial, not this. With this price, I could have eaten very well at those places.
We ended up with dessert at Phoenix Cafe downtown, clean, bright and better portion size and it taste better.
