Their Tung Po Pork is my favorite. Other dishes were really good too. If you go as a large group, I'd recommend including dongporou, sanbeiji, mapo tofu, and veggies with basil.
Delicious food. Can't wait ti eat the leftovers. Very friendly and attentive. We'll be back.
Delicious dim sum and dumplings. Judging by the looks of the wine display, they must have an excellent wine list. As if to show off and impress their clientele, a opulent display of exquisite bottles of cognac, sake, tequila, etc. beckons the eye. The stocked bar is a reason to have happy hour drinks. Order the plates first and then the waitstaff brings each dish and checks off each item till you are stuffed. Plenty of diners. an inviting interior, and freshly cooked dishes makes this a place to revisit.
Dim sum is amazing! Great prices and great food!
My regular destination for Dim Sum now. Most of items on dim sum menu are good. I like the lótus wrap sticky rice, all the shu mai porks shrimp and chicken
something happened. we used to come here a lot. it was so good. haven't eaten here since before the pandemic. ordered take out. it was HORRIBLE. food tasted old and flavorless. orange chicken had no chicken, just sugary chewy tiny crumbles. rice was wet and goopy. Just awful. wondering if new owners? will not eat here again. oh and at 6 pm when I picked it up, the restaurant was empty. Used to be full pre-covid.
We ordered 2 large takeout meals for Chinese New Year's eve dinner and weekend dim sum. The food was good for Santa Barbara, albeit greasy, with a few unexpectedly deep fried dishes that is not usually served as deep fried (sauteed shrimp for the shrimp noodle dish, deep fried taro cake). The portions were small.Dim sum was ordered on sunday, aproximately 20 separate dishes. We did not receive 3 dishes (triple order of shrimp cheung fun, which is a steamed rice noodle dish with shrimp and specialty soy sauce) that my grandchildren liked. In addition, shrimp chow mein, which I had specifically requested as one of the party liked crispy chinese pan fried noodles, was misordered as shrimp lo mein, a soft noodle dish.When I called to have them rectify the mistake, the receptionist initially told me the dishes would be refunded, as the dishes as requested were charged. I received a second call from the restaurant that the manager refused the refund as they claimed the 3 triple order of shrimp cheung fun was sent in the order. No explanation was offered for the shrimp noodle dish cooked wrong. A further communication that triple order shrimp "chow fun" was sent is also wrong as that also was not sent.This left a bad taste for what should have been a nice meal for an extended family gathering.
Very friendly staff, great service . Food was DELICIOUS. We DEFINITELY will be going back. THANK YOU for a TERRIFIC EXPERIENCE.
This is the only dim sum place in Santa Barbara (as far as i know). You order the food off the menu, so no little carts running around, unfortunately. The food is excellent.
Surprisingly very authentic Chinese food. As good as it gets. Owner is the cook which explains why. Environment is excellent perfect for a night out and when you want to impress your date.
