Cheap and tasty. Cash only . The employees do their best to maximize the amount of food that fits into the containers. Great place to feed 3 people for under $20
My absolute fave place in Oakland for dimsum bites to go. The steamed seafood dumplings , sesame balls , and coconut butter cocktail buns FTW
Fantastic cheap dim sum . Very busy but they will explain all the food. New 'go to' place for pork buns , shu mai, pot stickers , sesame balls , noodles
Super cheap dim sum . 9-layer cake , taro , sesame balls , and noodles are all super good. And oily. Thus, delicious.
So cheap . Their shu mai and pan-fried dumplings are super!
Best BAKED char siu bao in the game!
Quick cafe style dishes that'll feed you for days for cheap .
Steamed pork buns , sesame buns , and rice cakes
They seem to do a brisk business with their lunch combos (2-3 items with chow mein or fried rice ), dimsum is meh

The shrimp chow mien is tasty, bring a friend & order an appetizer to make a full lunch 🍤 - Paul Mansfield
Shu Mai almost every time. Snowy baked pork buns are always sold out. If you get there early enough...get them. - Oosha Devi
Replaced Legendary Palace. Way better food after the first month where they struggles to cook food properly and wait tables. Delicious runny egg yolk pineapple buns! - _
The cocktail buns are awesome. Sweet, creamy coconut filling, and super cheap. You'll probably want to get an extra one for later tonight. - Lee McEachern
Taro milk tea with boba is delightful, with bits of fresh grated taro! Also the alishan tea krema, omg. - Nicole Aptekar
Congee is great. They have a breakfast special of bowl of congee, Chinese doughnut, and stir fry noodles for 4.75 - Francine Lai
