I was told that this was one of the few good dim sum restaurants in Brooklyn and it shows. Arriving early, I already see a queue to be seated and a full house in the restaurant! Many of the customers, my party included, have to share the table with other an another party. If this is not to your liking, then you may need to find another place, come in a very large party, or ask and wait for a table for just your party. The food is what you typically see in other dim sum places. I admit, there were several dishes that I have yet to see such as abalone on top of the steamed beef balls (ngao yuk). It was delicious, the abalone was flavorful and not too chewy, while the beef ball was perfectly steamed with a hint of seafood from the abalone. I do wish that they had a bit more variety though. It could be that they were busy and the aunties stuck with the popular dishes, but I do wish they went around with some uncommon ones too.

Excellent Cantonese - the real authentic experience. Push cart dim sum. Huge selection, very tasty food. A few items - like the taro and the har gao dim sum weren’t as hot as expected. And the soup dumpling had far too much dough. But - overall, delicious and quick. Just be ready to wait in term for your table. Place is very popular and packed on weekends.

I’ve been here a few times on both weekends and weekdays. Weekends are great if you want the classic dim sum cart experience but are busier with wait times and more crowding. Weekdays are better if you’re looking for a casual dinner. The dim sum, fresh seafood, and crab fried rice are all delicious and I will come back for them. Steak based dishes have been hit or miss for me. Definitely recommend coming here for the experience.

Went on Sat at 9:20 am and got the last open table in the main area available. Good dim sum (steamed rice with chicken feet and spare rib) gone fast. The BBQ pork bun topping was not the best this round but the flaky BBQ is exceptional. Better get there if you don’t wanted to wait for dim sum.

Solid Dim Sum! I'm not the only one with that opinion as it's usually crowded. The wait times can vary but it's not too overwhelming. Usually up to 20 minutes. Food: 4.5/5 Good variety of classic dim sum dishes. You can also order off the menu for larger, shareable items like fried rice. I'm a fan of the steamed riblets, Phoenix claws and noodle dishes. Service: 4/5 Pretty good. The stuff isn't pushy with the offerings on the carts

Came here before and it was very good. Today’s visit was on New Year’s Day so it was super chaotic. We waited about 30-40 mins for a table for 8. The carts moved quickly and we were able to get what we wanted almost immediately. There were a few items we had to wait for. Today they didn’t have turnip cake. Some waiters were very helpful and scouted the dimsum items we wanted and ordered additional items. Others were typical and brushed us off. Any ordered food takes very long. They also have Hong Kong milk tea. Service is in Cantonese. Didn’t notice if they were super quick to help in English.

Pretty good dim sum, bookmarked this place for a while since my friend recommended it. A little bit far to get to in brooklyn's chinatown. Expect to wait before you get seats. I didn't see that many carts that went around, might be because we got there a little closer to 12:30pm, busy even on a weekday during lunch. You might want to ask them for the menu to bring the food out if the carts don't come by. I think the food is flavorful, but the service was a little bit questionable since we were waiting for the carts to come by for a while and it didn't feel like there was a lot of variety. There were definitely more items on the menu that they didn't bring out. Overall, I think it's good place to try once, I'm not sure if I would be back again.

It serves really authentic and traditional push cart style dim sum at all hours. Do expect a queue on weekend. You will also find extra ordinary and non typical dim sum dishes that please your appetite such as beef offal and pepper beef ribs.

Visited a handful of times before. Today (Wednesday) I went around 11am and it was pretty packed. Wait time was around 10-15 minutes. When you enter, be sure to tell the staff member in front how many is in your party for the table and he will give you a card with a number on it. As tables start to clear, he will yell out the numbers, based on availability. You want to be attentive here as if you don’t acknowledge your number being called, it will be skipped and he will quickly move on to the next numbers for people to be seated. During my 10 minute wait, I saw people who were there before me, that didn’t get a card with a number on it, and they just stood around. After they saw what everyone else was doing, they finally got a number so they could be called for a table. Also fyi, if you come when they open at 9am, there will already be a decent sized crowd waiting outside. Lines do not exist here though. When the doors open, imagine a Black Friday sale, but for seats. Families and individuals will run for the table they want to occupy during their meal. It’s a bit of rush! After that initial opening, about 60% of the restaurant will be filled. Then around 30 minutes later, the entire place will be packed and the above mentioned waiting for your number to be called will start. The dimsum here was decent! My review says 4 stars but I really mean 4.5 stars. Too bad half stars don’t yet exist on Yelp. They really should make that an option. Anyway, the dimsum here is very authentic, flavorful, and great portions! I brought my dad here and he says it’s also pretty decent - fyi, he cooks for a living. We also loved it so much that at the end of our meal, we ordered take out of dimsum to take back to the rest of my family. The restaurant is filled with locals, a few tourists, but mostly Cantonese families with small children, elderly people, and young get-togethers. You can sort of hear people talking in other tables, but that’s to be expected in any dimsum place with locals. It’s moderate volume but still on the quieter side for how busy it gets and in comparison to other dimsum restaurants. Staff here are friendly and attentive. Also super efficient. They bring everything you ask for within a minute- in my experience today. I asked for chili oil and water. Also plenty of refills for tea (for the tea, proper etiquette to ask for more refills is to lift the lid slightly and let it rest on top, so it stays open and they know to come get it). Also… absolutely love the hot sauce/chili oil here!!! So good we asked for 3 and I used 2.5 of them. My dad who doesn’t even like spicy much, used half of one. I put chili oil on most dim sum dishes to really elevate the already-decent flavors! Would still come back again!

Came here for dim sum on a Saturday and waited about 45 minutes to be seated. Totally worth it--everything we ordered was great. The place is huge, and free parking is a big plus.

Food is good, can’t say great. Long wait at Sunday morning after 10. Not worth the wait to be honest. Like many other Chinese dim sum place, many people waiting to be seated stuck at the entrance near dining area. Better lower your expectation toward service and atmosphere.

A 12 degrees evening before the anticipated arrival of the first big ice and snow storm of 2026 and wanted to have "last meal" of sorts before the great hibernation. We had 5 lobsters-split broiled, braised abalone-sea cucumber-shitake, a giant steamed branzino (live from the on-site fish tank), dried scallop fried rice, braised crab yee-noodles, cold platter with suckling pig, beef, pickled vegetables and jellyfish, a sautéed seafood dish with sugar snap peas-squid-conch, chicken-abalone soup, fried chicken, fried crab claw with shrimp, deserts were a fruit platter and also sweet red bean soup. Service was quick, but very, very rushed. Dishes came out every 5 minutes and were served and distributed. The next dish arrived before the current one could be finished and they brought us plastic boxes to pack what we couldn't finish. Food quality was fresh, but not particularly flavorful, slightly overcooked as seafood needs to be pretty exact. Difficult to stay fully booked in the current economy, but the entire restaurant of about 400 seats, was filled, as well as the private rooms, on this evening.

Dim Sum was mostly overcooked or probably was sitting there for awhile. Service was bad as you have to wait for 10 mins to have your tea refilled (either you call a waiter/waitress or they'll walk by you pretending like they don't see you). As for the place, it was packed and had to wait around an hour for a table. If you have any plans afterwards, I highly recommend that you avoid this place or you'll be wasting your time for some mediocre food.

My family and I have been going here for years, ever since I was a kid. We order the Peking Duck for every special occasion, multiple times a year. The quality has gone down A LOT. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the take out order of a full duck for Christmas (see picture attached). We ordered it two days ago and today. The duck barely had any meat. For almost a hundred bucks, this is unacceptable. We are so disappointed. The restaurant used to know us by how much we came. We called them tonight and they put us on hold for a while so we hung up. This was not enough to feed the family. Please fix this for other people. Sad service.

I had a really disappointing experience here. The waitress that served us was very pushy—she kept trying to upsell us to the most expensive dishes. On top of that, she spoke my hometown dialect and constantly interrupted our family conversation, which felt extremely rude and unprofessional. The presentation of the dishes looked nice, but the flavors were nowhere near what they used to be. It really seems like they’ve changed the chef. The Vancouver Crab Lotus Leaf Rice was especially awful—the sticky rice was far too greasy and completely lacked any lotus leaf aroma. Considering the high prices, the overall quality was very poor. Definitely not coming back.
