If you think you might get less crowd and less waiting time for weekdays lunch then you are totally wrong because this is where all the Chinese grandma (and some grandpa) hang out and have lunch .
Their $1.99 dim sum--that's $1.99 for everything on the menu--is robust and fun, not virtuosic. The flat-rate pricing enables reflexive, eat-with-your-eyes ordering. Read more
Ha Gao is yummy!, siu mai a bit bland, century egg congee needs more work, suen juk guen was really good, nai wong bao was yum, fong zhao was also really good.
Excellent very traditional and classic Hong Long style cuisine. Quality was excellent for dinner .
Fave: cucumber , mango pudding , tofu fa, steamed bbq pork bun ; Skip: fried taro
Amazing Dim Sum . Come early to beat the crowd.
They've got wifi to help get you through the long meals with your extended Chinese family and friends.
Don't come here with your Chinese girlfriend's mother. She will insist that you try everything and stuff you like a thanksgiving turkey .
Make sure to come early or else you'll be waiting like a bunch of packed sardines in the lobby
The shrimps are delicious!! They are bigger than the ones on the east coast
Go hungry because there are so many amazing things to choose from.
