    My New Year dinner 2026 Love the newly renovated atmosphere, the portion for all the dishes were bigger than I thought. The seafood was the best part of my night.

    Came in for a family dinner during the weekend, The restaurant was packed with customers and really loud, and this was part of the new renovation done recently. Food came out super slow, staff kept apologizing and reminded us the kitchen is understaffed. The table behind me, had two cases of Beer and bottles of wine on their table. While my table was awaiting our dishes to slowly come out from the kitchen, the patrons next to my family started getting loud- like really loud. The place is smaller than pre-renovation, so we are basically all back to back with each other. Food itself was very mediocre and pricey. Overall, not an enjoyable dinner- don't feel like returning

    The new renovations felt a lot nicer than before. The food was very good and served in a timely manner. The service was also pretty good overall. Would definitely return again for family dinners.

    Tasty food with generous portions, and the place feels clean .Service is quick enough even during busy hours. I like that they start serving dim sum at 9 AM it's fresh.

    My favorite dish, the shrimps were tender and fresh

The food here genuinely surprised me because everything came out super fresh and hot. We ordered a BUNCH of dishes that I lost track of taking pictures, but a few really stood out. The steamed spare ribs were hot, tender, and flavorful; the taro pieces mixed in were great too. The chicken feet were cut in half for convenience and the taste and texture were spot on. The hargow surprised me with filling that was mostly shrimp which is sometimes too much to ask for sadly. My favorite might've been the honeycomb tripe (not the one in the stew). It came out steaming and had that ideal bounce without being chewy, I'm pretty sure I cleaned more than half of it. Overall, the freshness and heat of every dish made a huge difference. The restaurant had a great vibe and service was good although they accidentally charged us an extra order of chicken feet (which was resolved when we pointed it out). Definitely worth checking out if you're craving dim sum in the city.

    Great tasting din soup dumplings! I came around lunch and…read moreit was busy. Luckily the turn around time for a table isn't a long wait. Their menu is pretty unique. I tried the wontons in spicy peanut sauce. It was different because I'm use to chili wontons. The spicy peanut sauce wasn't spicy. The peanut sauce itself is pretty thick, so I would recommend dipping it in the accompanying dipping sauce to balance the flavors. I would try the spicy peanut wontons again. I also tried the pork soup dumplings, which took some time to cook. It arrives very hot, so give it some time to cool off, maybe 5-10 minutes. The soup dumplings were mid, maybe I would try the truffle soup dumplings if I came back. I love how the dumplings are made in house

However, the real negative here is the operations. It is a chaotic mess for the volume they are trying to do. It's not about adding more manpower, it's about streamlining. Tables are sitting empty while people are on the waitlist (not due to reservations), orders are going to the wrong tables, to-go orders are in disarray and have to be re-verified on multiple orders, and it takes a long time to get some water. The Yelp waitlist is useless here - wait was supposed to be 5-10 minutes and it turned into almost 40. All this could have been avoided with more better planning, organization, and training. Kitchen staff doing their job well, front of house needs work.

Tell him how many in your party and he'll give you a piece of paper with a number on it, he'll blow through those announcements quickly, so listen up. - The numbers for a table aren't always sequential, he's playing a game of Tetris with tables. - If you've got less than a full table, be prepared to share a table, but it's no big deal. - Steamed Pork Bun is better than Baked Pork Bun (but not by much), which is better than the Crispy Fried Pork Dumpling (mochi!). Baked Pork Pastry was a little meh, it was extremely rich and ours was in that awkward in-between temperature. - Chive dumplings are pretty shrimp-forward, good, but shrimp-forward. - If there's something you want and it doesn't make its way to you, ask! Servers retrieved several things for us and the tables around us (seemingly) happily.

The ambiance is calm and cozy -- definitely a good spot whether you're grabbing a couple drinks, a quick bite, or sitting down for a full dinner. I ordered the Joker roll, and that's where things started to click for me with sushi. The tuna and avocado paired with the spicy red sauce really made it stand out -- honestly tasted great and something I'd get again. Also had the Mongolian steak with rice, which was another highlight. Presentation was fire -- it comes out still heating on a hot platter, which makes the whole experience feel elevated. Flavor matched the presentation too. Service was solid overall, no real issues there. The only downside was with a deal they were advertising ("3 for $33"). It was shown on their website and even posted outside the restaurant, which was actually one of the main reasons we chose the spot. When we tried to use it, we were told they weren't honoring it that night and that the deal had been causing them to lose money. I understand adjusting pricing if something isn't working, but if that's the case, the promotion should be removed or clearly communicated ahead of time. Having it still advertised and then not honoring it was frustrating and took away from the experience. Overall: good food, nice vibe, and a solid option in Brooklyn -- just make sure to double-check any deals before going.
