| - I'm going to go against the grain here. I've been eating dim sum all my life, all over North American often with my Chinese family. (So yes, maybe this doesn't compare to Hong Kong dim sum, I'll let you know when I get there.)
Although this place isn't fancy at all, I'm usually satisfied. Unless you are there right at the end of their serving time, we almost always get fresh delicious food. I enjoy the cart service, and they have been really nice to me in the past when I can't find a dish I want on the carts, they will make it in the kitchen and bring it to me. (And I don't speak too much Chinese so that can be a feat.) The price is good (usually $10-15 per person for all we can stuff ourselves with).
If you think of it as a greasy spoon brunch with unlimited tea (which I do), instead of fine dining, then you'll find a great place, full of Chinese people enjoying yum cha.
Just don't go to the bathroom. Yuck. Ok, with all the tea you will drink you will probably have to go to the bathroom. Just consider yourself warned.
