2 Stars: dim-sum (by bobby H.)

be prepared for loooong waiting periods. I usually eat dim-sum on the weekends, like almost everyone else--who really eats dum-sum on wednesdays?--and i have always had to wait for an hour or more. I tend to go with 3 other friends, which makes a party of 4 and hate the wait. Also, every time I've been there, i've been placed in strange places that don't often get good cart traffic. It wasn't a pleasant experience, when you have to go find the cart and tell the pusher to come to your area. I don't think i'll return here often.

When you want dim sum any day, any time. Open at 9 am, but best time to go is after 10 am when everything is out. Weekends are packed with people so be prepared to wait. Just get a number. Specialties include Eggplant Shrimp, Spare Ribs and Sweet Tofu (the softest).

PROS: Excellent Dim Sum daily
CONS: Packed on weekends

This is another of the great dim sum places in Little Taipei. Like Ocean Star, it is gigantic, but you still need to arrive early on weekends to avoid a line. They emphasize Chaozhou style dishes. Choosing between this place and Ocean Star, we would probably go for Ocean Star, but this is still pretty good.
