A fantastic traditional Chinese restaurant with amazingly creative dishes and a coordinated, efficient level of service that has military precision! My friends and I ate here after seeing great online ratings, and it is both entertaining, and delicious! If you're accustomed to more-Americanized food, however, realize that this restaurant serves Chinese food for people who want the real thing. The seafood aquariums are amazing, and the koi ponds are beautiful. The plates are often artistically presented, and the menu is simply huge! This is truly an amazing restaurant, all the way around.
Excellent and authentic dim sums. Service was up great. I don't mind to come to this restaurant everything, except I will gain a lot of pounds. I will definitely return to this restaurant for dim sum, lunches, and dinner. My friends took us back to this restaurant for dinner. Every dish is delicious. And due to my friends are the frequent customers, we got free desserts which two buns, and cake, and lychee ice cream.
Really friendly service. cash only place. It fills you up. You need to eat the tomato soup, very garlicy but worth it. The bread is thick and from middle eastern roots. Do not come here if you are expecting a subway or high end sandwiches. These are just good old straight fashion sandwiches that are tasty and you leave happy. Very fairly priced and ample parking in the rear.

I like this spot! They provide first-cleass meals, their menu is varied, The chief cook in that place is a real pro, I enjoy very much eating all their dishes. The food is always good, the service towards the visitors is very good too. I often eat in this restaurant and I was never unsatisfied. I recommend this place.
This is the most authentic Chinese food I have ever eaten in this country. When we got seated we looked around to see that we were surrounded by Chinese diners all speaking in their native tongue. Frankly, from soup to dessert, everything was wonderful. Even the skeptics among us were won over.
First meal here in 10 months...new chef?? The food has always been consistently good but the meal I picked up last week was really wonderful!! I ordered mostly standard white boy dim sum but every flavor and texture was nuanced and special. I can't wait to return, sorry I live an hour away.
Love authentic food, love great food, love love this place. Amazing dim sum in the US? Who would have thought!
