- Arrived around 12pm on Mother's Day for dim sum, and the entire ground-floor dining room was…read morealready packed; the space felt bright and airy with soaring ceilings, though the tables were arranged quite close together; traditional pushcart dim sum service was available on the main floor, while the lower level featured three spacious private dining rooms for reservations - We reserved private room #2, which, to our knowledge, did not have a minimum spend requirement; the room itself was roomy, clean, and very comfortable for our group - The staff were welcoming and attentive throughout the meal; in the private rooms, dim sum and larger dishes are ordered via a check-off menu and then brought out by the waitstaff; one minor inconvenience was that there's no way to directly call for service from the rooms, so you have to wait for the staff to circle back or check in periodically - Overall, the food was satisfying: the dim sum tasted fresh and well-prepared, though service from the kitchen was somewhat slow, with dishes arriving in staggered waves; the clams in black bean sauce were a standout--succulent, flavorful, and perfectly cooked; the lobster with sticky rice was also a highlight, featuring generous portions of tender, meaty lobster - One downside was that a few dishes we ordered never made it to the table, which put a slight damper on the experience

They have a variety of dishes and the food is good. We ended up ordering our dishes to go since the wait was so long.

I'm looking forward to dining here again when it's not so crowded and hope to try other dishes.

It's a touch of home-cooked Hoisan food with just the right amount of salt. I've even brought other Cantonese people here, and they were impressed by the quality, the speed, and the variety of dishes -- their honey glazed beef short ribs were a dish they'd never heard of, but was now on their list of go-tos. On my most recent visit, I ordered 4 entree dishes to go for my house party -- the 2 beef chow funs, a Singaporean rice noodle, and Yangzhou fried rice. They were all a hit despite there being dumplings at the party, and not a single crumb went to waste. I can't wait to come back once again.

It is thin rice noodles with seafood bits, picked vegetables and regular veggies and like snow peas, carrots, peppers and onions. This was a huge plate and I took the rest home and it made three more meals so that is the extent of the size! It is more expensive because there are some bay scallops and squid in there too! The place has high noise level. There are several large tables and we ended up sharing a table so be prepared to do that if you are a small party. Didn't go for dim sum this time just lunch! The rest is one room only. Waiters are attentive!

Updated review from 10 years ago…read more.. THE GOOD ---------------- + Still the same ol' restaurant it has been for more than a decade. Not much has changed, which is a VERY good thing. + Dim sum is as good as it gets here. You can't go wrong with any of their rice rolls, pork and shrimp dumplings, shrimp dumplings, chive dumplings, sticky rice in lotus leaf, chicken feet, spring rolls, etc. It's ALL good!!!! + The BBQ meats are also as good as they ever have been as well - roast pork, roast pig and roast duck are all super fresh if you get here early enough to buy them. Just ask for the fattier meats and you're golden. + STILL the best pan fried noodles you will get ANYWHERE. Always super fresh, piping hot, crunchiest noodles ever, plenty of supporting ingredients. Go for the shredded chicken pan fried noodle, you won't regret it. THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - Prices have definitely gone up a bit over the years, but it's common everywhere. They are pretty much on par with other Chinese restaurants in the area. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Unfortunately, they no longer have dim sum carts going around on weekends during dim sum hours. Like many restaurants, they have converted to having customers order on paper by ticking off what they want to order :( Sadly, the days of the dim sum cart are slowly dying and it got Wing Hing too.

We came here for and early weekend Lunar New Year luncheon and enjoyed it so much we decided to return in a few weeks for a private room to celebrate my niece's birthday. The dishes were excellently prepared, quick, and delicious -- the dishes weren't unnecessarily salty and generally not excessively oily (two qualities that usually are attributed to lower quality Chinese eateries). The food was beautifully presented in an authentic way and the service was quick. My only qualm was that the decor was a bit strange -- the upstairs rooms resembled an upstairs of a private home, which felt odd given the setting.

From veggies to meat to seafoods, they gotany options. Crowded small space when full house. Recommended to make reservations for big groups. Their specialty eel rice takes sometimes to be done, so place the order when making reservations. For veggies and fresh fishes, ask them what they got is recommended. Tell them to ease up on the salt or oily level if needed. Overall this place is not fancy but their dishes are on point for cantonese/taishanese flavoring.

I haven't tried their dimsum, so I cannot judge. Definitely give their charsiu a try (the half fat/lean cut). I highly recommend it and you'll not be disappointed.

I guess for spots like this, you really need to know the people working their otherwise you'd get whatever they give. They cut the pieces so big that when we get home, we'd still have to cut it in half so it's easier to eat. The taste itself is decent but otherwise I wouldnt come back here. They also made bak tong go which I think they do well in. Most places cant get the texture right but they do. At $4 a box thats only 75% full, I wouldnt complain because its closest to what I had growing up.
