Okay ladies and gents... I am FINALLY writing a review about this place after how many times I've been here! LOL Don't believe my number of check-ins on Yelp, because I've been here a countless number of times over the years.
Dim Sum has always been one of my favorite Asian cuisines since I was little. :] I would always get excited with the steam carts that come rolling around because the food is not only ready when you say, but it's downright delicious. Can't stress that enough.
This restaurant has been around for several years now and I'm glad it still exists. Their dim sum is authentic and one of the best tasting. They may not have what you want from the steam cart all the time, but you can always order it fresh. Which is a good thing, so you know that it hasn't been sitting in the cart all day.
My absolute fave items are the shrimp noodle, shumai, hargow, beef tripe, shrimp dumplings, and shark fin dumplings. For dessert, make sure to order the sweet cream buns! So bomb. Their regular menu is good too.
I frequent this place so much, that the workers have become my friends. HAHA They know my big appetite for dim sum is real. Being a fellow Asian, I criticize every lil thing about this cuisine because I want it to taste the same every time. Now the only downfall is that some menu items are really oily, but steamed food is better than fried. Plus, dim sum portions are small so it's not the worse thing, but something to consider for those that watch for their oil and salt intakes.
The restaurant itself is not formal, but they occupy a big space. It's a whole building. lol Which is really great if you come here with a big group.
Give this place a try when your craving for dim sum is too much to handle. Let it become your go-to place when you want to order for pick-up too. It's a stand alone restaurant for a reason.
