Recommended by my coworker so I decided to try it out. For my particular visit, I went for dim sum.
Impression:
Its your typical chinese decor restaurant. Not upscale and the furniture looks like any other chinese restaurant I go to. I wonder if they all buy from the same furniture store! However I have to point out that the chairs were uncomfortable to me. The backrest felt it was too far back and it just didn't feel right to me.
The place seats about 100 and the wait staff are in uniform. I didn't like how crowded the tables are next to each other. I had to change chairs as the guy on the table next to me was uncomfortably close to me.
Our order:
Steamed chicken feet in bbq sauce (a little on the sweet side but tasty)
Har gow (mushy inside and outside, not good)
Siu Mai (pork was decent but no crab eggs)
Sticky Rice (hard to go wrong)
Beef tripe (tad chewy but otherwise good)
Fried Taro dumpling (really good)
Dim sum here is non traditional style, meaning there are no push carts. You order from the menu and its in both chinese and english. Food came out quick and piping hot too. Almost burnt my tongue out on the beef tripe as i was so hungry when it came out and dove right in before letting it cool off.
The portions are a little smaller than most dim sums that I go to.
Overall the dim sum food was decent but the one complaint i have is with the Siu Mai. Real Siu Mai has crab eggs on top, and some places cheap out and substitute it with fish eggs but this place didn't have any eggs on it. Thats a no no for me. Never will i order the siu mai again.
However the best thing about this place is the price. I was floored when i got the bill as it came out to only $18 and that was with a pop! Definitely one of the best bang for you buck dim sums I've ever tried and I'm definitely will be coming back here again.
