Typical Chinese dim sum place. There r two levels to this place. Maybe the food comes too seldom on the 1st floor, but everyone goes upstairs to eat. Upstairs has more seating since the kitchen is located downstairs. You order from the ladies who push the food carts or occasionally people bring trays of food for you to choose from. However, they now have a separate menu in a piece of paper for u to select more expensive items. Tea is not free here. They will charge per person. However, if u don't want to pay the extra tea charge, tell them u don't want tea. Instead u want water. I believe it is free.

Very authentic Chinese food. If you sp3ak Chinese, you would probably have a better time ordering. Food was great. I really like it there.

I was a little skeptical when I saw the mixed reviews for this, but my grandma wanted to come and I wasn't going to deny her of that. Walking inside, I thought "tacky." Their chairs had bright blue and pink covers and it looked as if they were trying to fancy up the place. I'm glad ambiance doesn't reflect good their food was though because I thought it was really good! We got our usual - siu mai, har gow, rice noodles, etc. and I was amazed at how flavorful everything was and it was cooked well, and the pieces weren't super small like some places. The more dishes we got, the more I was sold on this place.
Overall, don't judge a restaurant by how it looks. This place won me over with their good dim sum.

I visit this place a lot since I work nearby. I love how their customer service is always fantastic and they keep the place well kept all the time. Pricing is affordable and they serve big portions.

So far everything served has been cold and tastes like it was leftovers from the day before.
The decor is fine. It's one of the few sit down places but honestly the street restaurants would've been way better.
The dim sum doesn't even stay together. It just falls apart and isn't edible.

Great Chinese food cuisine here with TONS of variety to choose from. Originally went here for dim sum for dinner only to realize that's only served at lunch. But that's ok because the dinner menu looked great. We ordered the shrimp egg rolls, honey walnut prawns, salt & pepper fish, chicken and eggplant in a clay pot and lastly, sliced lamb with scallions served on a hot iron plate. All of it was quite good and the service was fast and friendly.

I've been meaning to come here for quite sometime. You know you're in for a treat when the people in the front of the restaurant are speaking French and pretty much all the staff is French as well. It gives it a real authentic feel.
Service was beyond fantastic, and they really tried their best to make it a WOW experience. The food? Amazing. French restaurants try to charge you an arm and a leg, but this place doesn't. They actually are very fair with their prices and it's surprising as the food quality is top notch.

The dim sum here is delicious and affordable. I recently ordered 6 items and the total came out to be $27. Menu has names in Chinese and English. They also push the cart around so you can see what you're ordering.
