Customer Reviews
Customer Service: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The staff were exceptional, especially in handling my shellfish allergy. They provided a separate menu and ensured I knew which dishes contained shellfish, even offering separate serving utensils. The level of care and attention was among the best customer service I’ve ever experienced. Food Highlights: Taro Buns: Our absolute favorite! Sesame Peanut Cold Noodles: Perfect for a summer day. Pork Ribs: Delicious and not too spicy despite the jalapeños. Sauces: They offer several options, including chili oil, classic dim sum sauce, and our favorite, ginger chive. I’d order a pint of the ginger chive sauce by itself! Ambiance: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The ambiance was wonderful, with a beautifully decorated interior that made us worry about the cost (which turned out to be quite reasona
We had lunch here with the limited menu on Sunday. The place looks upscale and service was very good. The menu has a decent amount of options, including drinks, as well as having dim sum service. We got a sampler of the three grilled options, I think it was chicken, duck, and pork as well as about 6 dim sum options. The dim sum is priced very affordable between $4-6 and if you weren't starving you could easily make a full meal out of a soup and two or three of these. The menu items were a bit more expensive, but still very fairly priced. Everything was very good, I really couldn't pick out a favorite and it was fun having so many options for a reasonable price. Bathrooms were very clean.
Crazy small portions for takeout. Actually criminal. See picture. Pork had 5 tiny pieces to it.. Wife’s soy chicken was 70%bone. No sauce or anything with the two apps either..hopefully dine in is better
I’ve been here twice, and both times there were some things I liked and other things I didn’t like at all. Unfortunately there were more things I didn’t like. I really like the Ho Fun noodles. The steak is great in it. It’s a pretty simple dish, I think a less adventurous person would dig it. The prawns are fried with their head and shell attached. So all of the flavor is on the outside of the shell. I don’t want to eat shrimp shells. It’s not enjoyable to me. Thumbs down. The taro dumplings are warm, with a crispy exterior and soft interior. They were a favorite. The jade dumplings are too chewy. Not a lot of flavor. Not a fan. We got the dessert special. It was flan. It was pretty boring and the texture was too firm, like it was old. The lighting is very dark with weird lights on t
I have NO idea how I haven't left a review of my favorite restaurant in the city - and I apologize. I have lost count as to how many times I've been here. I take every person I know... they NEED to experience it. Celebrations, just because... it doesn't matter. The Parlor delivers EVERY TIME. The service is incredible, the atmosphere is so chill, and the food is absolutely the best. You know this place makes everything with love, skill and quality ingredients. Don't sleep on the daily specials and the juicy dumplings... and the cocktails are imaginative and delicious! and the Taro Dumplings are my absolute favorites! If you haven't made a reservation or dropped in late night, do not hesitate. This place is the real deal, and Roger Li and team should be SO proud.
