Contribute FeedbackThe restaurant on Noriega Street offers a taste of delicious Cantonese fare reminiscent of the 50s and 60s, perfect for family celebrations. While the food is well-done, the service post-pandemic leaves much to be desired. Management struggles to deliver equitable service, leaving customers feeling neglected. Despite this, the tasty food makes it worth a visit, particularly for dim sum lovers. The prompt, friendly, and attentive service during peak hours is a pleasant surprise, with delicious dishes like frog legs congee and stuffed peppers. The only minor gripes include the lack of a strong tea flavor in Oolong Chinese tea. Overall, a solid choice for a Cantonese meal.
The dim sum at this restaurant was delicious with a good variety. However, the Oolong Chinese tea we ordered lacked a strong tea flavor, which is important when eating dim sum. Despite this, overall the restaurant is good and I would recommend it to friends. Food: 4/5.
The dim sum at this restaurant is average, but the service and attitude of the staff are extremely terrible. They are unfriendly and rude, from the lady with short red hair who appears to be the boss, to the older male waiters. Despite making a reservation for 11am, we were not seated until 12pm. Instead of placing utensils on the table, one waiter threw them at us, displaying a level of rudeness that was unacceptable. When asking questions, the staff responded by yelling and belittling us, a behavior that was not isolated to our table but observed by several families that day. Additionally, the restaurant was disorganized and unclean, with dirty table covers, chairs, and tea cups/plates. It is worth considering dining elsewhere for dim sum, as the experience may not be worth the time and potential headaches.
The food was decent, my mom enjoyed it and my wife loves the dim sum at this restaurant. I was prepared to leave a $10 tip in cash for our $42 meal, but the cashier circled the 15% tip option and charged it to my credit card. I assume he didn't see the $10 bill I had left on the table, so I retrieved it. I remember reading a review where they did something similar, but on a larger bill. It was the day before Mother's Day, so the restaurant was busy, but not so busy that they needed to automatically charge a 15% gratuity.
This restaurant is quite busy even at 2 pm. However, the service was prompt, friendly, and attentive. They seated us quickly and got our drinks within minutes. They took our orders and answered our questions courteously. We ordered their frog legs congee. The congee was silky smooth. The frog legs with shredded ginger were tender and flavorful. The Beef HoFun was well done; the work he, the sauce, the fresh HoFun, the scallions, and bean sprout all add to the dish. Unfortunately, it was a tad too greasy for me.The stuffed peppers were done on order. The peppers and the stuffing of shrimps came out just right; enough umame and spiciness, plus the texture of the peppers with the grounded shrimps made it a successful dish. However, need a bit of work on the presentation. Many items on the menu are to be explored.Cannot wait.
Solid local dimsum place. Food, price, and service is average to above average.Food: 4/5
