Customer Reviews
This is hands down the best authentic Chinese restaurant in the area. You won’t find anything nearby that even comes close. The service is fast, efficient, and always friendly, and the food is absolutely incredible—truly reminiscent of what you’d get in China. If you’re craving real Chinese cuisine, this is the place you need to visit. I’ve been coming here for years, and it never disappoints. They even still have traditional push-cart service for morning dimsum, which is almost impossible to find around here. A true hidden gem!
As the only dim sum spot in the area, they do a pretty good job. The dishes were fresh, the selection was solid, and I really liked the old school interior. Overall, I would give it a 4.5.
Hidden gem in Pleasantville! I grew up eating dim sum with my family in Toronto, Philly and the Philly suburbs, then in Boston and NYC later on. The food at this restaurant is very authentic - all the dim sum favourites including shrimp dumplings (har gao), steamed sticky rice in bamboo leaf, shu mai, congee and egg tarts are there. They even have some things that are rare to find at restaurants, like durian desserts. My mother was impressed by the freshness of the food, which we were told by the restaurant staff is all made on site (not frozen). The congee was little small as were the egg tarts. Everything was tasty and fresh when we went on a Saturday morning (typically a busy time for dim sum). They do have the carts (IYKYK) but it’s a bit faster to order what you want off the menu. F
It’s really THE Chinese restaurant in the area. We call it our chow hall and for a big Chinese family to call it that, you know they can’t be bad. Their dim sum lunch is the best not only in their area but they are also better than places in Philly Chinatown. The people that works there are really nice. English is not their first language so I have heard them talk where it might come off a little “cold”. There’s a lot of dishes to pick from. Sometimes they receive special deliveries of ingredients so don’t forget to ask if they have any fresh delivery to get yourself a special dish. The avg price is higher for this post because we had lots of different seafood that night!
This is probably the worst dim sum I've had in years. The plating was awful but you could get over that. The trip was too thickly cut out of pure lack of care. The shrimp in the shrimp crepes tasted like it was past due – not at all fresh. The pan fried shrimp and chives barely had in his shrimp in it and the dough was too thick, and it was not fried well enough. D. The sticky rice barely had anything but rice in it. It was so bad we decided not to finish our food and go to another dim sum place.. I'm new to this area and we were visiting Atlantic City. Perhaps this is one of the best or only choices in the area, but I would not come back.
