It was our first time trying this place with some friends. We ordered a variety of dishes and it was a mix of hit or miss. The seafood combo curry dish was very flavorful so was the chicken & basil dumplings but the alligator was tough to chew, the lobster with salt & pepper was too salty. The house salad was refreshing. The vegetable dumplings were too dry. Hakka noodles were good. For the price some dishes were not up to the mark. We will try it again and order some different dishes to see if it makes our list of places to dine. The location and free parking is a plus considering it’s in downtown.

very delicious and thoughtful Asian tapas! All of the dishes we had were very tasty. Service was very kind & food came out pretty quick! The ambiance HITS! The decor is beautiful & the restaurant did a very good job with the aesthetic. Would suggest coming here with a group of 5-6 because sharing is optimal, so you can try various things on the menu.I didn’t get a photo but the truffle fried rice is a MUST

We sat in the front at a beautiful table! The food is family style and so good and fresh! The Steak and the shrimp dish we had was so good! And the fried rice so fresh! A very good meal!! We got a reservation would highly recommend! Beautiful decor and clean and fresh food!

We came with our family for breakfast/lunch, restaurant inside is really nice and fancy, service was good, the server was very attentive and suggested a few things. Food was good and fresh, we tried several things including the pecking duck, it was pretty good. Food is pricey, so be ready to pay $$$.

Everything we had was delicious in this attractive restaurant but the lobster dumplings were especially tasty. Service was outstanding and the heated toilet seats were a very nice touch! Will definitely come again

Dim sum was top notch!We ordered the Asian fried chicken which was amazing also the steamed halibut with chili absolutely amazing the baby bok choy with mushrooms loved it all in all it was an excellent meal

We really liked the place. Just a warning it's pricey and dishes are not big, which should be expected from a gourmet restaurant like this. We looked at the pictures here in Google maps and got really curious, we decided to check it out and we didn't regret it. The service was good and the restaurant has an awesome design and atmosphere. First time came on Sunday at 1:30 and it was PACKED with almost an hour wait. We were very hungry so we left. We came back the next day on a Monday at 1:30pm and were seated right away, because they were closing at 2 we were asked to order everything right away (but we were not rushed to leave after 2). For 3 people we ordered 3 egg drop soups, 3 appetizers and 1 entree and 1 dessert. It was enough food for us (but it wasn't a lot of food.) Everything tasted great and unique and the presentation was awesome. We were very pleased and we will be back again over the weekend to try some interesting dishes that are only served on weekends.

Excellent food and perfect service ????

The service was exceptional and the overall atmosphere was lovely - especially during the holiday season. The cocktails were fun but a bit overpriced - didn’t pack the flavor punch I was hoping for. The alligator was very dry but flavorful - wouldn’t recommend getting a side of steamed rice with it. The sesame chicken was very good, lots of sauce, and paired nicely with the steamed rice. Didn’t get a chance to take a photo of the lobster dumplings for our appetizer but there were 3 in one order and were DELICIOUS. Overall, nice meal but some items left me wishing I had chosen a different option.

We had Christmas brunch here and it was outstanding. We had 13 Dim Sum dishes and ever one of them was delicious. While we didn't try everything on the menu we can enthusiastically recommend the following: Sauteed Baby Bok Choy Sauteed A-Choy Snow Crab Ball Spare Ribs Shrimp Har Kaw Pork and Shrimp Sui Mai Shanghai Soup Dumpling Chicken Feet Salt and Pepper Shrimp (The veggies that come with this are sinfully good) Baked BBQ Bun Sesame Ball I believe one of the reasons the Dim Sum here and at Lin is so much better than other places in town is they use high quality ingredients.
