The outside looks just ok run down place at China town but really savored every dish. The food wasn't too greasy and foods came out pretty fast.

I have tried dim sum in the SGV, SF, OC, SD, and even NYC. Recently moved to LA and needed a local…read moredim sum spot. We had a weird experience. Do not recommend. Tea was burnt. Har gow wrapper was too thick/chewy and stuck together. Custard bun was dry. Shrimp rice noodle roll was just ok. The food was mediocre. Do yourself a favor and just make the drive to the SGV. Service was worse than could be expected. We were a table for 2 at 9:30AM on a Saturday. We didn't expect to be sat immediately, but we definitely did not expect for three walk-ins *after* us to be sat before we were. Parties of 3, 5, and 8 were all sat before us. I understand as a host, you must maximize space and seat according to size but seriously? They simply didn't want to waste a *whole table* on 2. After 25 minutes they sat us at a 6-person table in the back corner and she said, "You share this table," implying we would be a group table if another small party walked in. Then, no menu, no water, no napkins, no plates until we asked for each individually. Lo and behold, there were still at least 5 open tables an hour later, and we did not in fact need to have other parties join us... the food was definitely not worth this treatment.

They had one outdoor table available, which worked out perfectly since we had our dogs with us and could enjoy lunch together outside. It was a hot day, so we really appreciated that they brought us ice-cold water. We ordered har gow, siu mai, custard buns, pork buns, salted egg buns, and radish cake. The beef pan-fried noodles weren't particularly flavorful, but they were simple and definitely helped satisfy our hunger. The dim sum itself could have used a little more seasoning, though adding some chili oil would probably help if you enjoy a bit of spice. Overall, it was an average meal. If we hadn't had our dogs with us after the Firecracker event, we probably would have opted for a nicer sit-down dim sum spot.

I usually go to the window to order the famous $1 dim sum but on this day I wanted to dine in on my…read morelunch break with my current read and try something new on their menu. I absolutely love egg foo young and was excited to see that it was on their menu! I ordered the Pork Egg Foo Young and noticed pretty quickly that the gravy was absolutely delicious! Though the pork seemed to have been added on top instead of throughout the actual egg patty, which was a little disappointing. Service was a little spotty but I am a diner who is pretty low maintenance once I get my order hahaha. The space looked and felt like a neighborhood staple with lots of locals and regulars stopping in for lunch for their usual orders. Cleanliness wasn't that great tbh but may be worth it for the food. I'll be back for window service for dim sum and also to order takeout! Dine-in wasn't for me just due to the overall cleanliness of the place but I'm willing to overlook this for the baked BBQ buns and egg foo young gravy!

I eventually had to get up and ask for them myself, and even then, they still forgot our water. This was our first time here, and based on the service, I'm honestly not looking forward to coming back. What also really bothered me was seeing someone in the kitchen eating while still assisting customers and handling/serving food. That came across as very unprofessional and made the experience even more disappointing. The food itself was good, but the lack of attentiveness, communication, and professionalism really took away from the overall experience.

Ordered the snow bbq pork bun, har gao, siu mai, pineapple bun, chicken bun, and almond cookies. Everything was great - but would def recommend the snow bbq pork bun (it's meaty and sweet), and the pineapple bun. Would def be back just for those.

*** $10.00 minimum for credit card purchases ***…read more Long's Family Pastry is a ... no pun intended ... long-standing and takeout-only Cantonese bakery located in Chinatown that has been around for at least a few decades. This shop is best known for having one of the most affordable dim sum selections across the entire Los Angeles. [Parking]: Metered parking only with some paid parking lot options available. Our party came here on Sunday at 8 AM and had no issue finding available metered parking spots. Metered parking is free on Sundays. [Atmosphere]: Nothing to write home about. The expectation is to come here knowing exactly what to order so that you can leave in less than 10 minutes. [Menu]: All baked items have both Chinese and English labels. Yelp's top recommended options include Steamed BBQ Pork Buns, Baked BBQ Buns, Baked Pineapple Buns, Special Chicken Buns, Pork Shumai, and Shrimp Dumplings (Har Gow). The shop also sells porridge, cookies, mooncakes, Chinese tamales, etc. *** Steamed BBQ Pork Bun ($1.40): The bun was hot and tasted good. Baked BBQ Bun ($1.80): This semi-sweet bun had a larger portion than the Steamed BBQ Pork Bun and this is definitely the one to order. Custard or Egg Tart ($1.60): Very flaky and it tasted better than I expected. *** Long story short - this bakery sells some of the cheapest dim sum you will find in Los Angeles. Are they some of the best dim sum items you will find? Not exactly, but they are fairly decent and $10 can stretch very far at this bakery.

Parking can be challenging, but their is a spacious parking lot nearby. Outside may not appeal to you, but inside can accomodate to large parties. There were 11 of us and we filled up our table with different delicious dishes. All the food we ordered taste authentic and fresh. Salty Fried Porkchop was a winner because of it's light breading, but super crunchy outside & easy to chew inside. Seafood Chow Mein is exactly what ypu would expect it to look & taste. We had a spread of food in our table and each one was delicious!! Staff were friendly & all the food came out so quickly.

Quite literally one of L.A.'s (especially Chinatown's) best kept secrets…read more Looking at the menu, this place pretty much has it all - when it comes to your typical Chinese / Chinese-American food fare. For being located in the heart of Chinatown, would you expect anything less? The thing that I like most about this place is that I can get almost anything that I would order at any of the nearby fancier sit-down Chinese restaurants, but this place is built especially for quick / take- out = no tip needed. FOOD: Fried Shrimp Balls - 9.0 / 10 Up there with any Chinese restaurant's dim sum. Understandably smaller over the years. Pro-tip: heat these bad boys in the oven, toaster oven, or air fryer. Serve alongside sweet & sour sauce. Pork Shumai - 9.0 / 10 Again, up there with any of your typical sit-down dim sum place. Pro-tip: make an easy + quick sipping sauce with 1/3 soy sauce + 2/3 spiced white vinegar. You're welcome Shrimp Har gow - 8.9 / 10 One of the most traditional Cantonese dumplings. Incredibly light. If you plan to eat these later, I highly suggest steaming them as the outer skin can get dry. There's so, so much food here, but whenever I am in the area, these are my non negotiables. Seriously, it is such a life-hack to be able to do a "Panda Express" style order for more traditional Chinese / Chinese-American favorites without all the hoopla. Don't be surprised if there's a line, depending on what time of the day you go.

This place is an institution. After I wrote that sentence, I felt like I was trite. And like I said…read moresomething but not really. Like, one time I was watching Project Runway, a season finale episode, where the designers make their own creations, and do not have to make their ensembles from shredded newspaper or bird seeds or pinata remnants. And after a so-and-so of the fashion industry said, "I wanted to go and rip that jacket off the model." This other time, I saw a poster for a coming musical and it said, "stop everything you are doing, and go this musical now" says this important person in the theathre world. What am I am trying to say is that the comment I wanted to do this immediately or drop everything and do this immediately is so overwrought and widely used that it lost all meaning. Kind of like calling this place an institution. So I will call this place what I should to not be drown in my own trite. One time I went to this place and I went cause I was invited to a birthday party. And it was a large group of people. Me and a friend debated if Penny, from the Big Bang, had eaten at this place. She was also in Charmed--- it is a household name, I can't remember it. So this place is famous enough to be a go to move, and it has many pictures of celebrities that have gone there. The food is also super good, so this place, like I said is an insititution. When I went there a second time, I was more aware of the place I was visiting and kind of was ready to receive its Chinese fare with an unhinged jaw. I was dining with a friend, the same friend that I had the is that Penny from Big Bang debate? It was not. She eventually one. But like she and I ate here again, without knowing we were going to the same place. I would say its a small world but.... She and I ate with gusto. It does not take a lot to know that the speciality of the house is their slippery shrimp. They also have slippery chicken and slippery tofu. Super good, sweet, sour but it was not sweet and sour sauce shrimp, it had differences. I am not sure what. There were some heat notes but not like terrible heat. So I am not exactly sure what this place does to make their slippery sauce but let us just that it was delicious and different than other Chinese food sauces. Ronnie and I had the works. Rice, Beef with Brocoli, Pan fried dumplings, and dumpings. It was the type of Chinese food that was so good a coke was needed to balance the decadent saltiness of the fare. Yeah, that might not make sense but I wrote what I wrote. We had eniugh food to share between the two of us. It was that type of meal, where leftovers were welcomed and made sense. They were not left over, they were left untouched because it would be a shame to not enjoy them later. The service was great. The place felt traditional, and like it took you to an alley in China to eat a grandmother's food who knows how to use a Wok and pinch dumplings so they stay close for good. I saw this bad review that skewered this place. And I am like wow! How can we be so different. Not like Ying and Yang Different, more like flutter and flatten. But taste is subjective, so decide for yourself if this place is a peacock worthy of its feathers or a tiger with its claws clipped.

We ordered the combination fried rice, Mongolian beef, slippery shrimp, beef lo mein, mixed veggies and Szechuan chicken. Everything was delicious and super flavorful! It took a while for our server to attend to us once we were seated (we waited about 10min before we asked to have our order taken) but after that the servers were very attentive. The place is busy. Quick turn around. One bathroom for the entire restaurant so expect a line. I saw a sign out front for valet parking but I didn't see anyone. But there's plenty of parking places nearby. Found a place down the street for $8 all day parking.
