Authentic Dim Sum with a Minor Shrimp Roll Issue
My experience at this authentic dim sum restaurant was generally positive. We dined in and enjoyed several dishes, including Shuman, shrimp rice noodle roll, and custard buns. The food was great overall, though the shrimp rice noodle roll had too much noodle and not enough shrimp, which was a minor drawback. We ended up ordering more buns and dim sum to take home.

MSG Overload, But Tasty Dim Sum
I ordered $40 of dim sum takeout yesterday and really enjoyed the food. It tasted good, but I felt very thirsty for several hours afterwards. While I can tolerate a fair amount of MSG, this restaurant simply uses too much. This restaurant is great for MSG lovers.

Regulars Cut Line, Service Ignores Others
My experience was that you do not need to get in line. The service will only serve regular customers. Regular customers just cut you in front. 熟客可插隊,你排隊頭位都唔俾你買. 熟客優先.

Good food, cash only surprise
My experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. The food was very good, truly excellent. However, I was left hungry because they didn't specify that they only accept cash and do not accept debit or credit cards. This was an unexpected and inconvenient surprise. The atmosphere was quite pleasant, rated a 4 out of 5, and the service was rated a 1 out of 5, which aligns with my experience of not being informed about the payment methods. Overall, while the food quality is high, the lack of clear payment information was a significant drawback.

Authentic Dim Sum, Great Value
My experience at this restaurant was quite positive. It's a really authentic dim sum spot that offers both dine-in and to-go options. The staff speaks some English and Cantonese, possibly Mandarin too. The prices are pretty cheap, though they can increase if you order a lot. I was pleased with the wait time, which wasn't bad at all, even with a large order. While they didn't have century egg congee and another congee wasn't as good, all the other food was pretty decent. If you haven't tried it, I recommend it.

Delicious food, but watch out for hidden onions!
My experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. The food itself was quite delicious, but I was disappointed to find green onions in my porridge without being asked if I wanted them. As I don't like onions, this was a significant issue for me. The reviewer metadata indicates a food score of 2 and a service score of 4.

Great Value, Delicious Steamed Rice Dishes
My experience at the restaurant was great, with the price being right and the food matching what we paid for. The steam rice with pork rib and chicken were my favorites 💪💪💪👍👍👍.

Great Dim Sum, Menu Needs Pictures
My experience at this restaurant in Chinatown was centered around their dim sum, and I particularly loved the siu mai. However, as someone who isn't fluent in reading Chinese, I found the menu challenging. I wish there were pictures on the menu to help me understand what I was ordering, as the English translations weren't always accurate to what I received.

Best Dim Sum, Get There Early!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! It's one of the best small shop dim sum places in SF, and I've been coming here for years. A key tip is to get here early because they do run out of the good stuff pretty fast. Sometimes, I arrive past 1 pm and can only get a few items due to others being sold out. As previously mentioned, this is a small shop and only accepts cash, but there's a BofA right next door for those who don't like to carry cash. I am coming again this Saturday morning, see you there! P. S. Sorry for the extremely late review 🙏🙏🙏

Exceptional Dim Sum Experience!
My experience at this restaurant was outstanding, particularly with their dim sum offerings. I was most impressed by the siu mai, which was incredibly tender and practically melted in my mouth. The chicken feet were also a highlight; they were so soft that removing the bones was effortless. I also thoroughly enjoyed the chive dumpling, which was fantastic and reminded me of soft vegetable dumplings. I highly recommend this place!
