    This is as authentic as it gets. Don't expect crisp kind service and extra napkins or to go containers that you can fit all of your food in when it's time to go, but do expect delicious food well seasoned and prepared and delivered to the table quickly. My last time here, I had the dim sum, and it was great as usual. The little plates piled up, one more delicious than the next. Our table also ordered the short ribs, which are my favorite, Chinese broccoli and fried rice. The restaurant is pretty old and inside the tables are rickety and sticky and I'm definitely sure they could upgrade their decor and seating but the food is so good that I look beyond that and just appreciate the meal. I've been coming here for years, and I don't recall one bad experience.

    Came here on a Sunday around lunch time and was seated right away. The inside of the restaurant looks pretty basic, although a little outdated it was still clean. This the style of dim sum where they push around little carts and you pick out the dishes you want to eat. 1. Har gow - 6/10. I found the skin of this to be slightly too overcooked because it lost it's mochi stretchy texture. This one crumbled apart which knocked it down a few points for me. The filling was pretty standard, I may have gotten an old one that had been sitting out for a while. Not amazing, but also not bad. 2. Siu mai - 8/10. Also a pretty standard siu mai. Nothing wrong with it 3. Chicken feet - 9/10. This was full of flavor and unexpectedly very spicy!! It was a nice change to some other chicken feets that I've had 4. BBQ porn bun - 8/10. Pretty standard pork bun, I wish it were a bit larger but it was still solid 5. Shrimp rice roll - 10/10. Absolute best dish of our meal, in fact I would say this is one of the best shrimp rolls I've had in the bay. Must must get if you are here for dim sum! Overall this was a solid meal and the price was decent. I'd come here again if I ever wanted some quick no frills dim sum

    I've been visiting this establishment for over 20 years. Although it's changed ownership a few times, the new owners have updated the interior a lot! The place looks and feels very open and clean. It's solid chinese food whether you are dining for a family meal at dinner or dim sum over the weekend. I have not had a dish that was not good. Some of my favorites are still the fish filet with fresh veggies and the clams in black bean sauce. Family favorites are still peking spare ribs, seafood clay pot and beef chow fun.
