Great food. Pork shumai was huge. Niece tore up 5 of them alone. Service was much nicer than their neighbors across the street. Plus, we were seated right away.

Favorite Dim sum spot in the ID! Har gow, shuimai, sticky rice, and short ribs are amazing! Big portions and pretty cheap, just don't look at how dirty the carpet is.

The dim sum was great and super cheap. Don't get full on the cart full of carbs bcuz they bring around random plates of delicious looking dishes but we were already too full.

The Singapore style rice noodle is good. If the bitter melon is fresh, get beef stir fried with bitter melon in black bean sauce. The dim sum is mediocre but reasonably priced

Good dim sum. On weekend could be a bit of a long wait.

During this Christmas holiday, we received a $6,000 tip from a customer. All employees in restaurant would share this gift; and they thank the customer who like Harbor City restaurant so much.

Great restaurant for dim sum; from their regular menu, Beef with Black Bean Sauce is my favorite.

Dim sum is very fresh and hot for breakfast on an early Tuesday morning. Locals having breakfast and catching up on the days' news; can't get more authentic than this.

An option to keep in mind for Cantonese dim sum. Very authentic, tasty food but don't expect anything amazing.

Got the peking duck, the Xo noodles, beer tendon, and green beans. Super tasty and cheap!

Good dim sum. Don't be intimidated by the seemingly all-Chinese crowd.

Onion buns are surprisingly good

Don't believe the hype and let anyone else tell you that there is better dim sum in Seattle; this place destroys the competition.

You will not find better Dim Sum in Seattle, much less in the whole Pacific Northwest.

Everything is great!!

The Dim Sum is very good though it can be a long wait.
Eun JangDecember 12, 2016
The temperature of the food was off so it tasted kind of weird. We even got out sticky rice cancelled because it was cold inside

Dim sum definitely not as good as Jade Garden across the street.
Stephen KimMarch 29, 2016
맛있다는 딤섬은 못 먹어봤지만, 다른 음식들은 그냥 그런 수준이다. 시애틀 크기의 도시에 이 정도 수준의 중국집이 맛집 중 하나라는게 이해가 안 간다.

牛百頁 tripes, 糯米雞 sticky rice chicken
