There's quite a bit of Chinese restaurant in this area and comparing this place to their competitors, this restaurant is OK. Be careful with the 1 hour street parking and side street parking as most are residential permit zone.Customer service is exceptional and they have good comfort food with loaded MSG. With today's food cost, their prices are inline with current trends.

We had group dinner, nine people. This is authentic Chinese restaurant. The food was tasty and portion was big. We all enjoyed and will come back.

7 dishes good enough for 8 people, the beef brisket with soup is delicious and soft

Looking for an Italian restaurant? This is the place!! Tomato sauce and alfredo sauce are sensational. So good from first to the very last bite. You will love your dinner. Ordered Chicken Alfredo and chicken Parmigiano

Last time we visited we had a dispute between what we ordered and we were charged. We were 8 people party so we checked in the dim sum order sheet and I guess it is normal I won't ask around what you and you and you order so basically my point is that other than what I ordered I didn't know what the other people ordered. At the time we checked out, we checked on what we ordered to compare what they stamped according to the size of the dim sum they delivered. We found there was one extra SM dim sum difference. Before raising the question to the restaurant we asked each other at that time if we ordered anything extra not in the dim sum order sheet but we didn't. Next we told the waiter and then the waiter brought that up to the boys lady. What we were surprised the boss lady reacted quite rude saying that it happened again I don't know if she meant this happened again from particularly us or she meant this happened again in general. Long story short, we found out that SM dim sum in question was put down by one of the workers during the time and we basically didn't even know if maybe any of us ordered. We did ask the boss lady to charge it anyway before we found out. We also told her that after we understood what's wrong. What we felt bad was that she sounded like we were trying to cheat. I really don't think it should be our job to remember what to order especially we have so many people and order so many. What they should do is to ask their worker to cross check while putting down the dim sum to make sure we did order in the sheet. Pretty disappointed how they handle the dispute.

We enjoyed a half size banquet in a private room on a Tuesday evening. Delicious dishes and top notch service. It's hard to decide which dish is the best but our top picks are : Sea cucumber, Peking duck , walnut shrimp and lobster.

Fanciest Chinese restaurant on peninsula, GREAT Chinese seafood. We celebrated bday there. Perfect for weddings/ parties. Amazing 2 level high Ceiling with chandeliers! Little pricey but that’s what U get for the best! Great HK dim sum/seafood!

Food is as good as expected, service was friendly. Free red bean dessert.

Still a great place to eat after the pandemic. All waiters wore mask. Very friendly but most of all Great food.
