Pros:
Dim sum well prepared
Not as crammed as other places
Cons:
Long wait time for dishes to come out
My wife's family usually does Mother's Day for my mother in law the week before Mother's Day. We came here for dim sum so the review only covers the dim sum portion of the day.
You can make reservation for dim sum here which is nice. My wife's family now is up to 21 so we usually need at least 2 tables. Skyview is not the biggest restaurant that does dim sum, but it does have a lot of larger tables which make it ideal for larger groups. What I really liked about Skyview is that it's not as cramped as other dim sum places are. There's a good amount of space between the tables and you're not just stuck in place because you have no where to move.
Skyview's menu is not as vast other places, but what they do, they do pretty well. I was very satisfied with almost every item we ordered. The bean curd roll was the only item I didn't really like. There was way too much celery for my liking. My fav item at dim sum is the chicken feet and they do a very good one here. When you order cold water, they give you glasses with ice and bottled water. Most places will just give you tap water so that's a nice plus for those who don't drink tap water.
So my brother in law got to the restaurant first at about 1030am. He placed an order b about 1040am. Some of the food he ordered did not come to about 1130am. That's a bit too long in my opinion. I think about 20 minutes for when it's busy is the standard. Anything longer and obviously something is not working. That was the only blemish during our visit.
I'm a fan of Skyview for dim sum. It was a pleasant experience for the most part. I'm hoping the long wait for food was just an aberration if anything. I will be making a visit in the future to confirm.
