"Every dish has been a delight . A standout recommendation is the Garlic Sauce with Shrimp."

"We came for their weekend cart dim sum and had a good meal although the service was definitely a bit iffy. The date we visited, the restaurant was hosting a huge birthday party and I think it really backed up the kitchen and affected the service. There weren't enough servers working to really keep up with all the tables and the large groups had a tendency to empty out the carts before they could make it to the smaller tables. We were also asked to not order some of the dim sum off the menu, and instead to wait for it to show up on the carts which weren't really coming very often. That being said, everything we had was delicious and I would visit again, but maybe just do à la carte dim sum on weekdays instead. They also did apologize for the slow service and let us know that they are almost never that busy so maybe others will have better luck on weekends than we did."

"Delicious Duck plate. The service was great. They were very attentive. Our drinks were constantly being refilled. The atmosphere is beautiful."

"Good menu, a lot of options. Chinese-cantinise. Had the duck was very tender but the skin wasn't crispy. Pork spareribs were very good. Not over priced."

"Love this place. Dim sum during weekends and/or can order for dinner a la carte. Soup dumplings are cooked to order and arrive piping hot with plenty of juice. Dim sum: -Fresh shrimp dumplings have plump shrimp. -Bean curd rolls are juicy, tender and umami flavor. -Sticky rice is deeply flavorful and slightly smoky. -Radish cake: tender, with wonderful tiny bits of shrimp and Chinese sausage. -Shumai: slightly smoky and savory flavor -Pan-fried leek, shrimp and meat dumplings and herbaceous -BBQ pork buns: fluffy, tender bao dough with sweet char siu. Pan-fried pork dumplings are crisp and tender. You can come in for dinner or for weekend lunch dim sum service. Servers have been kind to me and I've enjoyed delivery as well. I will be returning here for my dim sum fix in the area, as well as work my way through the Cantonese menu, hand-made dumplings, and Chef's Specials."
