Spacious and good price. Always reserve a table ahead if possible. Steaming fresh dim sum.

Food is good but average taste for the price point. Hence 3 star for this level of restaurant.

The restaurant is located in kind of a basement, needs to go down four steps in order to arrive at the dining hall. Service was good and the food was correct. We were fifteen and we ordered two combo meals (398 CAD before tax and tips) for eight persons. The sweet and sour pork, fried oysters, fish stomach and prawns soup were quite good, other dishes were acceptable. They have good lobsters, unfortunately they don’t offer steamed lobsters in the combo menu), which would have been a better way of preparing them to have the original and freshness taste!

Great prices, dim sum tastes more bland than other restaurants (which I don't mind too much), the har gow wrap is one of the best I've had, unfortunately the filling wasn't as great. Mediocre service from the manager, good service from the dim sum serving aunties.

The standout feature of this establishment is its budget-friendly dim sum. From Monday to Friday, between 9 AM and 3 PM, and on weekends and holidays from 9 AM to 11:30 AM, you can enjoy small, medium, or large (food type, not size) dishes for just $4.98—cash only, otherwise regular price apply. However, you often get what you pay for: while some dishes, like the rice noodle, are acceptable (barely), others, such as the pork bun and various dumplings, are bland and lack flavor. Food presentation leaves much to be desired, as dishes often appear carelessly plated, randomly thrown to the dish or basket, detracting from their appeal. They do not look appetizing at all. Additionally, there’s a $2.50 charge for tea per person. There seemed to be no English or bilingual menu. Food is served quickly, and the service is efficient, but the staff are not friendly and welcoming. Some of them are even rude. They were charged with food premise not maintained with food handling room in sanitary condition on July 11, 2024, but it seems they have since addressed these concerns. Lunchtime can get quite busy, likely due to the early bird special, and the small size of the restaurant—complete with two tables near the entrance—means that those seated there might struggle to get timely service. To draw in more patrons, they also offer lunch take-out and dinner seafood specials, though we haven’t tried these options. Given our experience with the dim sum, we’re hesitant to risk dinner here, even at lower prices. The ambiance is unremarkable, and it seems little renovation has been done. The decor is quirky rather than elegant, and the low ceilings can make the space feel cramped and claustrophobic.

Went here for a banquet dinner. The food was tasty but the service wasn’t as expected. Normally for banquets, the dishes are served by the wait staff. Most of the time here, the servers deposited the dishes on the table and we were left to distribute the food ourselves. There’s pluses and minuses to both experiences, this is just an observation. Other than that, staff were quite responsive to individual requests for drinks etc. The lobster was unique in that each guest received a small half lobster instead of the usual one lobster that’s cut up into bite size pieces.

💰 $20-30 pp depending on how many people you come with Service here is a little rushed for people wanting a little bit more of a chilled yum cha experience. The moment I sat down, I was told by a waitress passing by to hurry up and order ASAP. Reason is because dimsum is only $4.98 per dish (doesn't matter what size) until 11:30AM. It was 11.15AM. There was a line up to be seated - I got a table of 5 but I was called to sit after 15 minutes of waiting. Dimsum dishes aren't anything out of the ordinary. You get an ordering sheet for all the things you'd want to get. I'd come again but only before 11:30AM

Met a friend for early morning dim sum. It’s $5 for SML before 11:30am. I thought the portions were a good size. Food was 4 stars except the shrimp. the shrimp had that taste some of them plus the fish cake with the eggplant had it too. so I had a hard time eating it. I know most shrimp is farmed now so it is harder to find fresh tasting shrimp 😔 but I like shrimp dishes at dim sum. Anyways cash only for the deal. I didn’t take photos of everything. We had har gow, sui mai, chui chow dumplings, spinach shrimp dumplings, ha cheong, feung gau, bbq pork’s with sweet potting, eggplant & tofu. It worked out to $65. Oh yes I should say they do an auto tip of 12%. Better to go, my ha cheong didn’t have that weird taste so it’s always hit and miss with the shrimp these days. But the price was good for the 3 of us.
