We came for dim sum at lunchtime, not very busy, but food was great, service was great. Didn't have to wait too long, tried 5 different dim sum dishes and liked all of them! Waitress was helpful with what to order.

Just the other day I saw the tall Chinese owner, argue with an old retired veteran. Not sure what it was about, but it doesn't matter because I didn't like the way he was speaking to him. As much as I like coming here with my family it was very upsetting to watch, I don't think we will be coming here anymore because no customer should be treated like that.

I like their dim sum. It's the type of not overly seasoned and not greasy. Eggplant and shrimp was satisfying. Shrimp in the dumplings came in pairs, in other places it's usually one shrimp in one dumpling. Marinated pork and leek pancake were awesome. Su mei was a bit too hard and salty though. I'll be back next time.

We hosted a large Chinese New Year party for 30-40 people and I chose Dim Sum House to cater. They did a great job and everyone loved it. The most popular were the Singapore noodles, Mongolian beef, and crispy pan fried noodles, but everything was good.

I've been a patron for at least 6 years. The dim sum standard has plummeted horribly, though unevenly. The steamed standards like siu mai and xiaolongbao are absolutely ATROCIOUS. They used to be decent but are now not just bought mass-produced but from a factory that should be ashamed to call the rock-hard grey fillings "meat". The fried dim sum items are better. The taro puffs need more salt but at least crispy. The sesame balls are also factory produced but at least they taste ok. The salt and pepper squid was pretty good, though again it could use more seasoning. If this place no longer cares about the quality of its dim sum, it should change its name instead of changing Asian cuisine.

Quite honestly I’m appalled. The wontons were burnt, but we tried to work around it. But then the soup tasted like water with a dash of salt. Not pleased with this experience and want to warn others before ordering here.

Absolutely ridiculous. My friends and family have eaten and spent money here for a long time now and love the food, however the quality in customer service is lacking! I am not exaggerating when I say that I have called 19 times to ask about ordering and about their holiday hours. I understand that restaurants become busy and you will not always get answered on the first ring but this is just ridiculous. I’m very patient when it comes to restaurants and waiting staff but this is completely unprofessional and unacceptable.

Such a beautiful place! Such lovely and sweet people! Such yummy soup dumplings! The perfect place for a romantic evening!

I really enjoyed the food: lemon chicken and salt baked shrimp, but they altered the tip and charged me more than they should've. Ended up disputing with my credit card and while the $4 isn't a lot it is still fraud. Always take a photo of your receipt so you can dispute the charge when they alter it.

Dim sum was okay. We ordered a little bit of everything. The one thing from what we got that was really good was the black bean green beans. They were bomb. The place didn't look as clean.

SO GOOD. Easily the best (and most authentic) Chinese food I've had in the US (granted - I've only tried in New England and UT). I did a semester in Shanghai in 2013, and I'd all but given up on finding a restaurant that was as good as the food I ate there/then. They have an incredibly extensive menu. We only got two dishes off of it (Mongolian beef and a beef noodle dish - both excellent) because the real fun is in the dim sum carts. They'll come by periodically with assorted xiao long bao, shu mai, (dumplings), etc., and you can pick what you'd like. Dishes were I think ~$4 each and so delicious! I recommend trying everything you can. When you go in, head up to the counter to be seated, and again when you're done to pay. This place is my new go-to! I wish I'd thought to take pictures to prove it, but I was too busy devouring everything I could!

They have so many dumplings — must come during lunch!! They roll a cart around and let’s you choose your own adventure! Also a MUST TRY is this silken tofu soup — it has awesome texture and amazing taste

The food was great. They even had real chop sticks. A new building with weird plumbing. Good service and good food.

One of my favorite Dim Sum places! You know when you walk into a restaurant only after 15 minutes of being opened and half the place being full, it is so good! This is usually where I bring friends to try Dim Sum because I know it is delicious! Usually if you go in the morning, you can get dishes fairly quickly since they are walking around with the carts! I actually haven’t been back here since pre-Covid since online it showed for a while they were not doing dim sum. I am so glad they offer dim sum again!There are not many places where you can find 雞爪 (chicken feet), 糯米雞 (sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaves), 排骨 (spare ribs), 蘿蔔糕 (radish cake), etc.

So tasty. The wait was over an hour after being told 30 minutes, but it was definitely worth the wait. So many good options. I don't know what I ate, but it was all delicious.
