A traditional Cantonese restaurant with pleasant and comfortable decor. The restaurant features several private party rooms of various sizes, which is a great touch. It's perfect for friends' gatherings or business dinnings, offering privacy and even karaoke for added fun. The food here is a feast for the senses, with an impressive presentation, aroma, and taste. There are quite a few dishes featuring high-end ingredients, which elevate the dining experience. If you're looking for a restaurant to enjoy a cozy meal with friends or colleagues, with top-notch ingredients and a prestigious atmosphere, this place is an excellent choice. --- Hope this meets your needs!

Went here with a good friend of mine today - ordered honey walnut shrimp, beef + tofu casserole, and roast pork belly. Amazing food, good service, good portions and price. I highly recommend this spot for anyone who wants authentic Cantonese food, even if the atmosphere can feel quiet at times.

Tasty food. Large portions. Reasonable prices. One of my favorite Chinese restaurants

I was skeptical about this restaurant serving dim sum when the restaurant's name was unusual. We decided to give it a try. It was a legit dim sum or a Chinese restaurant. The dim sum may not be the best comparing other dim sum places in the NoVa, but it was good and expensive. Update: We had a big party and were able to book a private room for 22 people. It was amazing to enjoy a big family gathering and dinningexperience.

THE best dim sum in America! I have lived and been all over Cali, as well as TX, and I am from New England. Tried them all. What a pleasant find as I've been missing my native Canto dishes recently. Picked up their signature roast duck on the way out for tonight's dinner and can't wait to try. Service was amazing and chatted with the server and owner. They were such sweethearts- warm, friendly & great, fun energy. Looking forward to returning soon. And to the duck!:)
