Service: It was not busy at the time we visited but the service was slow. We ordered our dim sum and they came back like 10 minutes later with our order list with a time stamp a minute ago. And they've missed an order I checked off. Also, we asked for a glass of ice like 3 times and they brought ice water instead of ice.
Dim Sum: I could tell it was prepared in house (and not frozen like most other dim sum restaurants) and I didn't get the MSG after taste. That said, if you like your dim sum salty, you should not come here. The dim sum isn't bad but it's not the best in town either. The dishes were good but not great. Their Siu Mai was huge and tasty but the sesame bun with stuffed egg yolk was not fresh (the bun tasted like leftovers).
Price: We've ordered 8 dishes between the two of us and cost about $30 per person. So it is on the pricey side. Most dishes are 6-7 bucks each.
We haven't tried their stir fry dishes here yet. If it's anything like the embassy kitchen on San Gabriel Blvd, it should be very good.
The food was good, the staff was friendly. Despite being busy on a Sunday, they took care of us! AND I lost my card there, and they kindly kept it for me. Gonna order from here more often!
This location opened one week ago and is from the same ownership as the Embassy Kitchen on San Gabriel. Food is hot and dishes are generous in size. The flavor I found to be authentic and flavorful.
new chief in town, very traditional canton dish with fresh ingredients! Strongly recommend the Truffle Filet Mignon.
