Sadly Closed

by destruktor

This place closed about 3 months ago. They had a sign up that they were closed for the holidays but they never returned and now there is a "for rent" sign up. I miss having dim sum so close to our house.

WORST DIM SUM EVER!!!

by crowdiddly

We recently relocated from Atlanta to the Triangle area and have been looking for some decent dim sum. Neo China was OK, but we were looking for something comparable to the amazing Dim Sum restaurants on Buford Highway (Happy Valley and Canton House, just to name 2). We saw the great reviews on citysearch and decided to check it out one morning.

Pure horror. The staff was pushy and unhelpful, they wouldn't leave us alone. And the food... so horrible. Everything was ice cold, like it had been made 6 hours ago and they just left it on the cart. The barbacued pork was bland and tough. Siu Mai was tasteless and gummy. The fried pork and mushroom dumplings were cold, greasy, and extra chewy. After choking down the abominations (which are normally some of our favorites) we decided to cut our losses and head for the door.

Avoid, avoid, avoid!

• Pros: You don't have to worry about overeating.
• Cons: everything else

Great Dim Sum

by gprospero

I've enjoyed dim sum in other major cities (NY, DC, Miami) and this is among the best! I was really happy with the array of dishes and the energy of the many happy Chinese clientele. It was a lot of fun and inexpensive... my fiancee and I spent less than $20 (including tip) for a Sunday dim sum meal. Just be aware that the environment is not "fancy" it is just clean and utilitarian. Anyway... you're going for the food... not the furniture!

• Pros: Inexpensive, fast service, busy but efficient
• Cons: ambience
