Dim sum is served all day here? I know some places don't serve dim sum in the evening

From 7.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m. but many dim sums are sold out after 3.00 p.m.

Why i need to choose this? And what sights eeing you have or activities..? And what food are the best seller

There is clearly a seat on the first floor, sitting only than foreigners, telling me to go to the second floor. But Shu Qi told me to sit on the basement floor, the one with wooden bench and mirror xd

What MTR station is closest to this place? Thank you

Central station, exit D2 (theatre lane)

Service is great, better than most of the restaurants I went to. Food is very pricey especially because they charge $35 hkd per head for tea (which is quite expensive even for western standards). Food is not cheap either, I would recommend going to Tim Ho wan instead.

Love the ambiance, as it looks so traditional. However the food was ok only, vegetables were over done and service was a little intrusive. Not sure if i would go back

Best place in Hong Kong for early morning dim sum. Food: good in an old-fashion way. Deco is unique and artful. Service is not bad considering.

Mediocre tea house, rip off merchants. We ordered a few Dim sum dishes but they had no vegetables on the menu so we asked for a side order of green vegetables. They brought us a small plate of green vegetables without mentioning that they charged $220hkd (about £22, almost $30 usd). Truly obnoxious. The dim sum was fine, nothing special.

It is a Hong Kong experience for visitors. More so nowadays as old dim sum tea houses disappear. Recommend trying their different kinds of teas that are served in individual cups with a lid that serve as individual teapots. That way, each diner can have his or her own choice of tea. It is a little tricky not to burn yourself so be careful. Observe how others pour their tea.The dim sum is, well, mediocre and old fashioned. You can order from dim sum trays as the waitresses bring them around, or order from a sheet, which of course is only in Chinese.Being such a well known tourist site, the surprising truth is that they don't much crave tourist business, as they enjoy a strong local patronage.

This place is overrated and overpriced for what you get. Think it is a hangout for their regulars but as a first timer there the experience is not great to say the least. The dim sum is average, and there are much better dim sum around HK than this place. Maybe it has history so you are paying for visiting it as a museum but for food I'll go elsewhere.

We went during lunch time. Ground floor was packed, we were told by the waiters there are more seats upstairs. Ordered the dim sum and a huge portion of pork noodles. It taste surprisingly great. Most of the customers are local elders so we know thr food must be authentic and good which didn't disappoint us. And the plus point is all the waiters are very friendly and smiling to us which are very hard to find in Hong Kong especially.

I was there for dinner with my family. The food was not cheap but it was worth the money. We ordered food with less meat and more vegetables, because my parents wanted to have a meal that’s not so heavily “flavoured”. The pig-lung soup, not sure this is the real name, was really good and a delightful surprise. Apart from the price, everything is above average and quite well-done.

It's a lovely place in an old traditional Chinese tea house style restaurant highlighted with Western stain glass. Our meal was delicious and the service was outstanding. The only criticism is the noise level that is amplified from all hard surfaces around. A great place for traditional Cantonese style dishes.

Pricey for what it worths. Portions are small for the price. Service is bad. The waiters are not the most polite in the world. We asked for a specific table that was empty then the waiter lied to us that it was occupied. He led us to a dark and inconvenient corner. 2mins later another waiter led a couple to that empty table we asked for. Why? Seems like they don't treat all their customers equal. Well... This is the first time I visit, and it's most likely my last.

The service is prompt, friendly and relaxed. Food is good, tasty but not overly salty and seasoned. Good old style deco. One tip I was given - don’t brother trying for a table on the ground floor during peak hour if you are not connected or famous - go up stairs.

Very old tea house serving authentic Cantonese food. Good service by the waiter too. But unfortunately he told me that business isn't doing well due to all the riots. Hopefully they can stay in business and keep their jobs! The location is ok located on Stanley Street.

Hated it! Terrible service, they forgot to bring the food first then they brought wrong food. I haven’t seen such a bad restaurant in my life. Food tasted terrible. The waiter was laughing after all. I asked to speak to manager. They said manager on holidays! They spoilt our night 😫😫😫
