Tai Pan Dim Sum

"Got there 12:20 totally packed but table available in 10 minutes. Some items sold out already. Their jook is good. Center has credit card parking payment machine. $1 parking"

"Not too bad. Some dishes are more authentic than most of the dim sum restaurants nearby."

"Deliciously retro old school dim sum. The beef ball and yam cake were great. Service was excellent- our pleasant server advised us against ordering too much and she was right!"

"We found d this restaurant while looking for something to eat while in Chinatown. It was at the tail end of the lunch rush and it was still busy. The service there is fast-paced and the waitresses work really hard. We did have to flag someone down after waiting close to 10 minutes to ask if we could be seated since no one approached us about being seated; not a big issue as I said it was busy. Once seated we were given menus and asked about our drinks. The tea came quickly and we placed our order which the waitress confirmed so that the order would be correct. Because of how busy it was the service was friendly but brief. We decided to have the Shrimp Dumpling, Steamed BBQ Pork Bun, Pork Hash, and the Seafood Fried Noodle. It was all very good. The food came out fresh and hot. The Shrimp Dumpling while good did need either soy sauce, chili sauce, or the sweet soy mix to make it pop. The pork hash and bbq steam Pork bun were all packed with excellent flavor. The seafood fried rice was the best I have had. The seafood included in this dish was Shrimp and Scallop. This restaurant was able to make this dish without it being greasey and so flavorful it needed no sauces - it could stand alone. The best we could tell is that most eating there were local - if the locals eat in a place and there are a lot of locals it is generally good. We were not disappointed."

"Excellent variety of fresh daily made Dim Sum! Lots of Aunties in the back kitchen are working hard to prepare dishes as ordered. There is a small baked goods section as soon as you walk in. Get there early to have the most options as Many dishes sold out one by one the closer to 2PM the arrival. Loved the pork buns that were steamed so nicely! We sampled quite a variety and brought more food home than we could manage to eat."
