Local favor is back and renovated! Best come on week nights, there will be no wait at all. I love their stir fried spicy beef dish and the calamari dish. You can wolf down a tub of rice with those!
Good selection of standard dim sum favorites, including char siu bao (pork buns ) and shu mai (shrimp dumplings ). Get there early and get everything on the table to minimize disruptions while eating.
I love their shrimp pork shu mai & their sesame seed balls. I usually spend $20 for the 3 of us (2 adults+1kid). If you like spicy , don't forget to ask chili oil to eat w/ the shu mai . It's delicious
Next time order for next door. Same Restuarant, but take out . Might be wrong, but it price seems lower. Ask for "what's new?" They have seasonal non menu items
If buying to go dim sum , go to their to-go shop open 10-2:30 to the right of the main entrance. Noodles and main kitchen opens at 11am
i typically don't order dessert at dim sum , because that's just a tourist thing to do. but i have to admit, i was converted when someone ordered the mango pudding for me. dessert is for everyone!
This is aslo my favorite dim sum palace in downtown. Some say that there are other places that are better, but to me this place is good enough and not that crazy far from where I live.
Tofu pudding with sweet ginger sauce . If you can find the cart you're in for a treat.
They Validate parking !! Bring your ticket with you
Ginormous room. Awesome food. Good service . Chinatown's best kept secret! :)
Owners were evicted June 2 2013. Been eating here since I was a kid. RIP

I havent been to a lot of dim some places but the important thing is I think its delicious.
Show up early on weekends to avoid a wait!
The sticky rice thing wrapped in leaf is amazing.
If you don't want to get up early go on Saturday and avoid the crowds of Sunday
We just had some of the best Dim Sum . So fresh and hot, not greasy at all.
Sweet tofu is really good.
So far… best Dim Sum in Chinatown.
My favorite dim sum experience in Los Angeles - great for friends.
Congee is a must.
Go early to avoid waiting.
Ask for the chrysanthemum tea .
Try to tripes . Tender, juicy...really good
Everything is fantastic!
Try to sit near the most asians for faster service.
If Adrienne gets the stick out of her butt she might have a good birthday.
Gung Hay Fat Choy!
Forever closed!!!!!!!
There is nothing touristy about ordering a dim sum dessert ...
Try to get a table near the kitchen for faster service.
Dim sum is yummy here...
