| - Sure this place looked nice and had a huge open floor plan (perfect for dim sum), but the food just wasn't up to par. The service was quick and efficient. For dim sum we had the siu mai, Har gou, pork ribs in black bean sauce, bbq steamed buns, and fried shrimp balls. Not one thing was particularly good, the dumplings had all adhered to the bottom of the steamer they came in. When I attempted to try a siu mai I pulled the entire filling out if the rice paper wrapper because the wrapper was stuck to the tray. The fried shrimp ball wasn't crispy, rather chewy as if it had been cooked hours before and kept warm. The pork ribs were standard fare, as well as the pork buns. We also ordered honey walnut shrimp. Although the menu showed a price of $12.95, I was only charged $9.80 on the bill for it. Either way, it was a rip off. The shrimp had clearly been fried earlier and kept warm, then once we ordered it; slathered in mayo. They just tasted old and the portion (see my pic) was a joke! All in all it wasn't a horrific lunch, just nowhere near worth $40.
