Mike ShermanSeptember 12, 2017Expect a long wait on weekends. Dim sum ends around 4 or so, come before 2 unless you are ok with a weak selection
Grisou LestatFebruary 22, 2016the food is good but there is not enough vegetarian options and the service quality is now poor, it has been decreasing over the years.
etta yApril 11, 2011Unintimidating dim sum with English-speaking cart ladies. Pork buns were too sweet but food was good overall. Can't wait to go back.
Sandro PuglieseDecember 25, 2010And order the Peking duck with steamed buns (off the menu but well worth it)
Probably one of the best dimsum places in chinatown. It's less crowded than the rest of them.
Jam COctober 5, 2012The pineapple bun is not the normal type - it actually has canned pineapple chunks in it. Bit of an unpleasant surprise.
Anna SantiagoSeptember 11, 2016They close at 3. Don't come at the end of brunch... They run out of everything
Helen SJanuary 25, 2012dim sum. try to get there before 2pm, before the cart inventory starts dwindling.
Dennis HanDecember 29, 2013Food was mediocre at best. Didn't taste clean or fresh. More expensive than I thought it would be and really rude staff... manager included. Oh and my stomach didn't feel good for 2 days afterward.
Bonnie EisenmanMarch 28, 2015Dim sum was good but not outstanding. Carts came around quickly. No taro root though :(
William GardnerFebruary 18, 2013Don't bother. Worst service ever. Waited 45 minutes for a table. Then sat at the table for 2 hours with barely any carts or service, and the ones that came would ignore the table. Food was mediocre.
This restaurant is participating in Chinatown Restaurant Week Mar 9 -18. Have a look at the $18.88 pp menu.
still the best joint in chinatown for dim sum. also very gwei lo friendly.
Try the Shrimp Crepe - Like velvet. Wow. #dimsumdemolition
Thalia KJune 20, 2010Definitely worth the wait. So happy to finally have a dimsum place in Manhattan that I can rec'd to people
Arthur LuDecember 25, 2010Unbelievable wait times on Christmas day. Guess the cat's out of the bag about Chinese places open on Christmas day
Adam AhmedSeptember 20, 2009Best Hong Kong-style dim sum. Make sure you get some shumai, cha shao pao, and dumpling soup.
