It was a bit of a pleasant surprise and immediately sets a comfortable tone. The service was quite impressive... extremely attentive, friendly, and quick. 8/10 for the food. 10/10 for the price point 10/10 for the service. The food was definitely solid for the price point. There were a few misses, but the dishes that landed were executed really well. I definitely recommend checking this place out if you're in the area! Siu Mai 10/10 - Juicy, plump and perfectly executed. Definitely my favorite dish. Bean Curd Skin Roll in Abalone Sauce 9/10 - Flavorful with an excellent texture. The whole dish was well executed. Beef Chow Fun 8/10 - Solid and flavorful. The beef was tender, and the noodles had a great texture. Yangzhou Fried Rice 8/10 - The rice was moist and the seasoning was spot on. Shrimp Egg 8/10 - Soft and well seasoned. Generously portioned with very plump shrimp. Pork Chop Spicy Salt 8/10 - Crispy and slightly salted. It has a really great texture to it. Salted Fish and Chicken with Eggplant 8/10 - Perfectly seasoned and cooked. Generous portions of chicken, salty fish and eggplant. Chicken Feet 7/10 - It was solid. Not the best, but definitely not bad. House Special Crispy Shrimp Rolls 5/10 - The flavor of the shrimp was okay, but the rolls were really greasy. There were three very small rolls, definitely not my cup of tea. Chili Wonton 3/10 - By far my least favorite dish. The wonton skin tasted very flour-y, and hardly had any filling. The filling was also very bland and the chili oil was very underwhelming. By the way, the tea is free (I know, free tea at a dim sum spot).

For dishes like the beef chow fun and steamed fish for about $14.88, making it super affordable for a large group meal. The food came out fresh and hot, and the menu had a lot of variety to choose from. The restaurant gets busy, on weekends but service moved pretty efficiently overall. A perk for this place is that they do have a parking garage, which made parking way less stressful compared to other busy dim sum spots in the area.

The decor is charming with vintage trinkets along the side of the wall. There is a waiting area by the lobby and restrooms in the back of the restaurant.

But as for the food itself, the standouts would be the fried shrimp and the lobster. The shrimp is perfectly fried and I enjoy how soft the shell is. I like the lobster alot too. I personally prefer the way it's prepared at Henry's, but Newport's is still pretty decent. For the most part, the food is overloaded with MSG. Each time I've gone or taken food to go, I feel massively dehydrated after that I get a headache if I don't drink enough water. Luckily the staff was pretty on top of refilling our waters, and they often switched out our plates for clean ones. We've been going for years, and they used to allow substitutions for the set menu. But on a recent visit, this didn't seem like it was a thing anymore.

The parking lot was extremely full, but we were able to find parking on the street and walked over to the front of the restaurant. We came at a busy hour, but they sat us down right away and we got a chance to sit with the menu. Some of their stuff was sold out, but we managed to get items that we really wanted to try since they served dim sum items as well as lunch specials and à la carte plates of food. I like how we were able to pick what kind of complimentary hot tea we wanted and out of the six options I picked Jasmine. I picked the dim sum items and my husband got something from their lunch specials and selected the fried rice. As each item came to the table, they checked off a receipt that listed the items we had ordered, just like other dim sum places do. Not going to lie, all the food tasted great with the Fried Rice with Diced Chicken & Salty Fish and Steamed Rice Noodle with Shrimp being my top faves. The rice was just really tasty and I didn't notice the salty fish in it till I bit into a piece of one and the chicken wasn't dry. The rice noodle with the shrimp was soft and the sauce with it wasn't overwhelming. I was surprised with the dumpling and pork buns because they were also not too dry and the truffle wasn't overpowering. The Spare Ribs in Black Bean Sauce did come at the end of me stuffing my face, but I tried two pieces and it was really good. We ended up taking a bunch of leftovers and my husband got a chance to talk to our server while I went to the restroom and he was excited for us being our first time here and when my husband told him we plan to come back and we really do want to! Next time I want to try: - Seafood Congee - Radish Cake - Pork BBQ Bun - Chicken Feet - Roasted Duck

Even on the first day back it seems that some people knew, because the tables filled pretty fast! We enjoyed all of the food! My favorite was the pedan porridge, the lou sa bow, shrimp rice roll and the lo mai gai. The green bean they had had wok hay and it was nice and crisp. All the food is made to order, so it's nice and hot which I think is quite important. Overall staff enjoyed being back, and seeing their experience shows that even coming back from a break, they know how to do and serve Dimsum. Can't wait to come back. Until next time!

I got the classic ayce hot pot and mostly got the beef, lamb and pork belly for meats. There is a premium ayce option for $5-6 more but I was pretty satisfied with just the classic selections. I would rather pay the extra $5 to get dim sum, which was also not bad! I liked the siu mai, shrimp har gow (fave), and steam juicy dumplings. My bf liked the steamed chicken feet and garlic tripe as well (the tripe was p spicy). You order the dim sum with your server as the dim sum is made to order, which I preferred bc it comes out steaming hot. The buffet bar also has a variety of items from fried appetizers to veggie side dishes, fried rice, noodles and more!

Unfortunately, a few weeks ago, I ordered my usual items and was very disappointed. The Shrimp Siu Mai barely had any shrimp, and the meat looked old and didn't seem fresh.

It's really disappointing because I loved coming here, but the quality is no longer the same. Sadly, I'll have to find a new go-to spot for dim sum.
