Reviews for Hei La Moon

Ratings_icons Great dim sum

Stephanie N. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 6,863

This place is full of Chinese people and overwhelming as a first time dim sum. Great authentic dishes such as chicken feet, spare ribs, dumplings, pork buns, squid etc etc.

Ratings_icons Awesome Dim Sum

Wendy C. | insider_guru Insider Guru | Rank: 995

Hei la Moon can be an intimidating restaurant for inexperienced Dim Sum-ers--- I highly recommend bringing someone who can speak Mandarin or who has an understanding of all the different Chinese plates with you on your first trial. Servers push around carts laden with small plates of Chinese favorites- like spring rolls, satay, etc. Servers don't speak much English and might not be able to tell you what they are serving on their cart in terms non-Mandarin speaking people can understand. Still, I like a sense of adventure in my lunch, so I like trying the different Dim Sum at the recommendation of Chinese friends.

Hei la Moon also has a traditional Chinese food menu for those that are too timid to try the Dim Sum. Prices are reasonable and the service is efficient. It is always busy here so probably isn't the best place to go for an intimate meal. Very good authentic Chinese food though.
