Review Summary

Reviews describe a classic dim sum spot where carts are not available at all hours and weekend brunch tends to be the busiest, with a wait for a table but dishes that are flavorful, filling, and often shareable, and some items can also be ordered from the menu. The atmosphere is described as traditional and nostalgic, with some calling it a hidden gem and others noting a run down or dated look that could use a refresh.
