    I tried the dim sum here which, it wasn't bad at all but not the best dim sum I've had especially for the cost. Although, they offer some unique takes on your usual dim sum items. My favorite was probably the crawfish dumpling. It came out as this beautiful red color, and was fried with a thick crispy shell on a bed of microgreens. Ordered the snow crab balls which tasted like the fried crab balls at most dim sum places and was good but not anything extraordinary. Also had the shrimp har gau, scallop caviar sui mai, and the pork and shrimp sui mai. All 3 of these were meh. They weren't bad, but definitely had better at other dim sum places and there wasn't anything unique about it even the scallop caviar sui mai was not too interesting and it didn't taste much different than the pork and shrimp. Also got the spare ribs with black bean sauce which was good, tasted similar to what you would be familiar with ordering the same thing from other dim sum places. The steamed custard buns was delicious and the custard was just soft enough but not runny. They also gave us a plate of 3 sauces which was dumpling sauce, hot chili oil, and what I think is vinegar. Overall not a bad experience but nothing special about the food, staff was nice and gave us egg custard tart on the house at the end which was nice.

    Shout out to our server Don. All the dimsum we ordered were a trip! We had Peking duck as well as we celebrated my son's recuperation from his surgery. We had to sit outdoors because we didn't make reservations. It was packed! The outside weather wasn't too bad we got lucky. Love love love the decoration and the food? Authentic and recommended! (Did I mention clean and heated toilet seats?)

    Another date night with my wife! This place is stunning. Very beautiful inside, great decor and reminds you of being at a place in downtown Austin. The place was packed, yet staff worked diligently. Friendly staff all around who want to make your visit enjoyable. We had a bit of everything on the menu it seemed like! We started with Dim Sum. The presentation was really cool! It came in a wooden box. The taste of the Dim Sum was excellent! We also had the Lobster Cheese Puff! This was ridiculous! So so good! Our entrees were Shishito Akashi Beef and Sesame Chicken. We'd definitely get both again! You gotta come try it out! Great date night spot towards Bee Cave off Southwest Parkway!

    Came for an anniversary dinner and did not disappoint! They have lots of gluten free + dairy free options as well as loads of delicious dim sum for the glutinous. Our server was super kind and helpful. He pointed to me to the items I could eat and helped me pick a drink--when I ended up not liking it, he let me choose a different one free of charge. Seriously so appropriated! My husband loved the soup dumplings and shrimp dim sum, while I thought the gluten free dumpling trio was delicious. I also got the gluten free vegetable dumplings steamed, and they were okay. It tasted a bit too vegetable-y, kinda like I was eating grass and dirt. Maybe it was the spinach? The gluten free dumpling dough itself was great. The chicken and beef dumpling within the GF trio were so delicious. We also had the green tea salad and pork loin with rice, and everything was very good. The pork came as small fried bits, like a sweet sour chicken almost. Overall everything was great. The only thing was when we came back one Sunday for brunch, the host was not very friendly and we ended up leaving because the menu online was not accurate and they didn't have many gluten free options available for brunch. So come for dinner if you can't eat gluten!
