The BF and I were driving from Kansas City to Baltimore and decided that we would stop for dim sum in Pittsburgh for lunch on Day 2 of our drive. Found it via Yelp, it's a little drive off the highway and thanks to GPS, we were able to get there. Parking is a little tough, especially with a large truck and a trailer, but we managed to take over two spots at the grocery store across the street.
We were there on a Sunday around 1:00, so I figured the dim sum crowd would be hopping. Sadly, it wasn't so. It wasn't empty, but it was lively or bustling as I would hope on a Sunday afternoon.
I got past that and moved on to the dim sum carts -- which were rather minimal. I'm used enjoying cart upon cart of dumpling offerings. We were able to sample two types of dumplings and ordered some crab rangoons, nothing else really looked appetizing. The dumplings were not so good either. I agree with another reviewer that the dumpling wrappers were quite gummy and not at all delicate. We had a little trouble picking them up as the fillings fell out of the wrappers.
All in all, I was disappointed as this was my first glimpse into Pittsburgh. You have a beautiful city and I look forward to really visiting sometime, but I won't make the trip to eat here again.
