Delicious Food!. I visited this restaurant in March 2012. The Food was very good, and service was okay. The main issue I had was the communication break- down. But They are good pppl. and They made sure we were satisfied.…
HORRIBLE Food & Service. Throughout the years, this place has gone from bad to worst... The food and the service have alot to be desired. The food is VERY greasy, of poor quality and not tasty. Sorry to say, Charlotte, NC. does not offer a good selection for a Dim Sum Restaurant anywhere local. Please don't waste your time or your money here.…
Very good Chinese. We tried this place for their Chinese. We have found every dish to be tasty and fresh. The prices are very reasonable and the portions are good size. We often get take out. The service has been very good.…
Good Dim Sum! Great service..
Today was my first time eating the the Dim Sum restaurant. I have never tried Dim Sum before, but always wanted to. We went around 4pm on Saturday. Upon entering the restaurant we immediately
noticed a "weird" smell. Kind of like something spoiled. We think it may have been the lobster and fish tanks. It took a minute for someone to greet us, but once we sat down the service could not have been better. The staff was excellent and very helpful. We asked what we should eat and the waitress showed us the varieties of Dim Sum that were popular. We were served very quickly and the food was great! There were a couple of dishes that really did not suite us (the jelly fish and the leek dim sum, for example) but the eggplant dim sum and the pork OH MY GOD! Fabulous. The fried rice was very good too - lots of authentic style veggies in there. The chili paste on the table was great too!
The food was good and the service was better. We didn't feel inferior because we didn't know what to order and everyone was just super.
The only bad things were the weird smell at first and the iced tea was quite nasty. But hey, everything else was great.
I will be returning!…
So So -.
Okay so I spent eight (8) years in Sydney, Australia. Am married to an Asian and had "dim sum" almost every weekend. There is a very large population of Chinese in Sydney (they too have a Chinatown
like San Francisco and NY).
I moved backed to the USA and we chose Greenville, SC - and I realized how much I missed my trips for "dim sum". We met another Asian couple who told us about this restaurant in Charlotte and said it was "ok".
My first impression was that they were not organized when greeting people (no real hostess) and just sat whoever walked up to them first. If I hadn't been assertive I would have been waiting quite some time.
They sat us in a part of the restaurant where the employees pushing the carts around didn't see (nor did they bother to look) so we had to call out for them to bring over the food to us so we could look. Everything was either luke warm or cold. The chicken feet (one of my favorites) was surprisingly good as was the stuffed eggplant. However everything else was below average. Nothing had a really "fresh" taste. The shrimp dumplings tasted frozen and they kept sticking to the other har gow since they were overcooked.
I would probably go on a weekend and right around 12pm so that it is as "fresh" as possible. If there isn't another dim sum restaurant around then I would go knowing not to expect much. For me (and I'm a picky eater) it would suffice. For the true Asian - not sure if you would be happy.
Who knows - maybe it was a "bad day".......it was New Years Day after all!…
