Bidrage med feedbackBeen here twice now and the dim sum is very good. Authentic. Place is very busy expect to wait. But food is worth it. Well worth it
Went here for Sunday brunch for the first time and the food was great! We enjoyed everything but our favourites were the sui mai, fried shrimp wontons and of course the soup dumplings! Food took a bit longer than expected, but that being said the restaurant was full so it's understandable. There was already a line outside when we arrived waiting for opening so I'm sure it's a favourite for a lot of people!
From the moment we arrived, the server was quite rude to us, which I understand is common at many traditional dim sum places, but even my Cantonese friends I was dining with felt it was unnecessarily rude. The food was not particularly good either; one dish had scallops that were so bitter/sour I had could not eat it and had to spit it out. Another gross thing here was that there was water dripping from the ceiling that I felt multiple times land on my head, so hopefully there wasn't any that landed in the food. One more thing that bothered us was that they brought some dishes to our table that nobody had ordered. The price was not too bad for the quantity but compared to some of my favorite places in Chinatown this was both more expensive and lower quality.
I've always been a loyal dim sum diner at the Chinatown Manhattan location one for as long as I can remember. To my surprise finding out there was an Upper West Side location to this dim sum chain was shocking. The food was good and a great addition to any dim sum lovers in upper Manhattan that doesn't want to commute far. I enjoyed my rice shrimp noodle roll the most out of the other dishes. It was fresh, the noodle skin was soft and smooth. Even the pork buns were fluffy and had a sweet gravy filled caramelized pork center, there could be more filling though. The har gow (shrimp dumplings) were standard, nothing too crazy but passable. The bigger difference with this location is its more expensive than the Chinatown location because for obvious reasons, the Manhattan neighborhood you're dining at. Service was very attentive to both my friend and I. Very clean establishment. It's a smaller location compared to the downtown one but big enough to house 30 tables or so. It was our first dim sum experience in the Upper West Side to welcome my friend to the neighborhood. I'll come back for that eggplant and other dessert items highly recommended by other Yelpers.
Love the dimsum. I still remeber the day we went. We got the table inside near the window. Cool day with great food. Shrimp dumplings and Seafood Fried rice
