- Bring a Cantonese friend and let them do the ordering. If you are really aggressive walk up to the cart ladies as they come out the kitchen before they do their rounds. Make sure to throw dem 'bows!
- Cold Dungeness crab with vinegar, watercress conch soup, steamed scallops with XO sauce vermicelli, bamboo pith pea leaves, braised lamb casserole, crabmeat e-fu noodles, egg pudding tapioca pearls
- Village VoiceMarch 1, 2013Calling all fans of crispy fried chicken skin (so…everyone right?). The crispy chicken with dry minced garlic is succulent with some seriously crackling skin!
- Best time to come is 10:30-11AM to secure a table with 15-20 min wait, so have a early bird buddy arrive to get a ticket number for your group. They roll out the fresh/best dishes for peak hour 12PM~
- This is my favorite Chinese restaurant in Brooklyn. I take my friends here, I take my dates here, my family comes here. The wait on Sunday is ridiculous after 9, so be early!
- Dim Sum and Dinner food is amazing. What more can you ask for? Fresh Dim Sum until 3pm! For Dim Sum, try this pork intestine dish and salt&pepper squid.
- One of my favorite dim sum spots in the city. Consistently fresh and delicious. They also open early.
- Village VoiceJune 3, 2013This restaurant produces some of the finest dim sum this city offers. At 2 p.m. pricier fare starts appearing on the carts whirling through the dining room, but over-rice dishes are always cheap.
- K CNovember 29, 2014Authentic Dim sum and can order other Chinese dishes from the kitchen. There is a wait but worth it.
- Ellie DMarch 28, 2015The mochi-like peanut-filled dumplings were my favorite; and something I've never had before! 👍👍
- Cynthia CavaliereApril 25, 2012Great variety and consistently tasty dim sum. The shark fin dumpling is where it's at here - have it even though it sounds weird. Trust me, there are way weirder things on the menu.
- Justin PakSeptember 15, 2015Best dim sum in NY. They'll call your number in English of you don't speak Chinese.
- Bill B.June 27, 2011It's a breakfast thing, best on the weekends, people are stacked up like planes at Laguardia. As for the goodies, the tripe is great, and I could sit here and just eat chicken & duck feet all day long
- Jess NaldoApril 6, 2015Come early on the weekends for dim sum or be prepared to stand in a cramp, crowded waiting area w/ 50+ others for nearly an hour, though they may tell you "20 minutes." Good enough, but not the best.
- This is the only dim sum restaurant in NYC that is closest to a HK dim sum restaurant. A lot of dim sum varieties and spacious seating.
- The best Chinese seafood restaurant in entire NYC. Always worth the trip. Either dim sum or dinner are great.
- Great dim sum; it's worth the wait! Come here on weekdays to avoid the long lines.
- Bonnie YuAugust 9, 2012My favorite dim sum place in all of NYC! Saturday and Sundays get there before 9: 30am to get a seat without a wait! (Free valet parking, too!)
- Jessie ChenMarch 28, 2015Don't stop with just the dim sum. Large platters of seafood, rice, stew, and other dishes I don't know the name of are served all day!
- The Corcoran GroupMay 1, 2011Great and crowded place for delicious Dim Sum (don’t miss the pork buns) and early dinner (try the Pan Fried Flounder and the Hot & Sour soup).
- The gor jing jung (big lotus leaf wrap w/ sticky rice), corn + pumpkin sweet soup, and peanut + coconut covered mochi is the best.
- Village VoiceFebruary 9, 2011Try the bamboo pith-deliriously spongy, unlike anything you've tasted-the winter melon provides a plain green backdrop. The broth in which the constituents flounder is chicken-y tasting & soothing
- The dim sum and dinner here is amazing! It's always so fresh and tasty. Definitely try the egg tart when it just comes out from the oven! It'll definitely make you go for seconds!
- Alex RavenelAugust 10, 2015Good fresh dim sum in Sunset Park. Parking can be tough. Gets very crowded, which is a good thing--dishes stay fresh.
- Try to sit by the kitchen door which is all the way in the back of the restaurant next to the fish tank.. Not only u can look at the fishies but also get the freshest dim sum right from the oven
- FunesFebruary 20, 2015Super authentic Dim Sum! It took a minute to find a waiter who speak English, in this case it's a good problem bc it means it's real.
- FionaMarch 17, 2015Always worth the wait for weekend dimsum - everything is delicious, fresh, and well-made!
- Samantha NicoleFebruary 15, 2014Because i brought my white bf, they added tax to our bill! NOT paying for it. Get it adjusted! Im chinese you fools!
- Best dimsum on 8th ave hands down and beatiful aesthetic! Come here for the real brooklyn chinatown experience ;)
- Must order: shrimp dumplings, fried cruller rice crepes and sticky rice.
- Stephen PerleSeptember 8, 2015Great dim sum. Really liked to black sesame steamed dumplings for dessert
- Fodor's TravelSeptember 9, 2015Not much English is spoken, so be ready to take a guess and point at whichever plates look good as servers wheel them on carts through the cavernous restaurant. Read more
- Please bring someone who knows what they're doing so you're not asking every passing cart lady what everything is.

- If you're ever here for dinner, order the scallops (ordered per person). Super fresh and prepared well.
