We enjoyed a fabulous lunch here, sharing our dishes, and boxing up what we couldn't finish. The portions are huge, colorful, and beautiful. The soup was outstanding and very spicy! Yum!

We went for my grandmothers birthday and had a blast. Dim sum is great to share and they also have full size portions of things on the dim sum menu. We should have kept better track of what we got but it all worked out.

WoW the food here is so delicious I couldn't stop eating. You must eat here now. The hostess was super sweet and took time to show our son how to use chopsticks for the first time.

We come for Dim Sum! Free parking, delish dishes and great customer service. Water, tea, forks... it's no problem if you're not adept at chopsticks. Food is hot and fresh! A favorite of my family for years.

Went here with a good friend of mine. Sometimes he makes people uncomfortable because of his appearance. However, the staff was extremely friendly and the food was delicious. One of the only dim sum spots with parking

Sooo many delicious dishes! We ordered a range of items to share. The honey walnut prawns in particular, insanely good — already one of our fave dishes and these were some of the best we’ve had. Go hungry and leave happy!

Dine inBrunchOne restaurant that had actual parking for diners so they can eat comfortably without having to run out of minutes at the parking meter or pay 40 bucks plus 9.90 for less than an hour just to get food. I get it, it's for event parking, but for a split moment food pick up, yeah that's crazy....😖
