First time, service was good. Calm place to eat. Not for fancy activities, but good spot to eat in calm. They have specials, can have delivery with third company (Uber eats,dash,etc). I took 102 on menu, total 15.54$.

If I can I will give no stars for this restaurant. The restaurant is highly suspected of feeding customers the leftovers of other customers' food, the bowl of rice I was order is like two bowls of leftovers poured into one bowl. It was so disgusting that there was even a piece of sausage that looked like it had been half-bitten. Very bad experience. Watch out this restaurant for your own health.

We visited Ottawa in March and very surprisingly found the food quality to be exceptional. Freshly made and tasty. The deep fried footballs and taro balls were the best we've ever had (even compared to dim sum in the Toronto area!).

The food is very good (like the texture HongKong Style, meaning not too soft and not too hard). Compare with most Chinese restaurants, this place is the best, and if you don't know the dishes, just ask the waitress, she would gladly help you out. Anyway, I'm very happy with the Food, and the Service.

The takeout through UberEats dim sum is pretty okay. Dining in tasted good. Did not leave much of an impression, but the food tasted good. I like the shrimp and eggplants, and shrimp hargow. The custard bun is also very standard but delicious. I would recommend getting any of the shrimp items and add the custard buns in for dessert :)

Authentic and tasty Cantonese cuisine! It’s super affordable, too. What a great place.
The food arrived very quickly and was served by a nice lady.
The menu is very vast so it’s easy to get lost in it. If you don’t know what to order, you should try the beef dumplings and the noodle soup with chicken.

Go for the food - not the decor or atmosphere (it's a humble environment but great place for dim sum). Foods are expertly prepared and served piping hot to table. We had sticky rice in lotus leaf, fried turnip patties, rice noodles roll with BBQ pork, spareribs in black bean sauce and pork veggie dumplings for dim sum dishes. Also ordered a Cantonese combo plate as well. They do everything well so arrive hungry and definitely over-order because you'll enjoy the leftovers later!! Warm, sincere server was genuinely attentive and caring! I love this little, unassuming and delightful restaurant.

Dim-sums were okay considering their prices. Overall prices are low, while the portion of meat in dim-sum is small. It’s fair. Chicken Feet, Steam Rice Noodle With Shrimp, and Shrimp Har Gow were delicious. Pork & Veg. Dumpling were okay. Steamed Pork Bun was so so. It didn’t have any juice and the wrap was dry. I guess these were previously frozen. Shrimp & B.B.Q.Pork Fried Rice was okay. The place is old, but it was clean.
P.S. For the pictures of dimsum, I ate some.. One serving is more than what’s seen in the pictures.

Some of the best dim sum you have ever tasted anywhere is back in Ottawa.
Was there tonight and the new place is much larger and nicer. Food is fantastic as it always was. Can't believe it's been almost two years since they were open. Was not disappointed!
Now don't go there if you are in a rush, for those of you who don't know, everything is made-to-order and will be some of the freshest dim sum you have ever tasted. In fact it is one of the top dim sum restaurants that I have ever been to even after having lived in Toronto for five years and having travelled extensively around Asia.
Wait time today was about 15 min. We had the har gow, siu mei, lor mai gai (sticky rice), rice noodles, yu choy and sesame balls to name a few. All were excellent. The lor mai gai was a little overdone and clumpy, but the others were all simply fantastic. Can't find better dim sum even from a 5-Michelin star restaurant, having had that in Toronto.
I recommend going off-peak hours and taking your time when going there. Talk with your dinner mates and relax. You won't find better dim sum any place else. It's worth the wait.
Also, this being the 2nd week opening, they are still training new staff in the kitchen, so the wait may be longer if the restaurant is busy. I will cut them some slack for that.
Highly recommended.

Although the food taste and quality is one of the best dim sum we could find in Ottawa (just moved here from Toronto), the service was SOOO slow and dismissive that we would debate coming back. Usually we are happy to swap service for good food but in this case it seemed to translate simply into a poorly run business. We sat down and waited almost 30 minutes after putting in our order before any dish came out. We didn’t understand why other tables would get the same dish that we ordered but 20 minutes before ours came out. Wouldn’t the kitchen be more efficient to make multiple batches of the same dish? We also had piles of empty and old steamers, empty tea pot and water glasses sitting on our table and they wouldn’t get addressed until we asked multiple times. As a seasoned dim sum goer from the GTA, the standards just aren’t there

Went there on my birthday, a Thursday night, with three family members. We are all Dim Sum addicts, and the food that night topped our expectations. Service was quick and attentive — were we familiar with Congee? OK then — and the food arrived piping hot and in rapid fire. My favourite was Green Onion and Ginger Squid, tenderized but not mushed, and full of flavours. Good menu, very well prepared. Try it. I don’t think it will disappoint.

Arrived for lunch, 15 mins to get seated and no food arrived after a 40 mins wait. Other tables were experiencing same issues. The table behind us went to get some rice for their kids at the nearby Vietnamese restaurant. We left at that point because it was apparent we won't be getting our food soon and our lunch might turn into a dinner. You're not cooking michelin star dishes in the back.

The food was good. Very hot and mostly tasty. But they have one girl in the dining room to do everything from taking orders to serving food and bussing tables. As well as working the cash. She's woefully overworked. And as a result the service was unforgivably slow.
We won't be back.

Finally got around to try it today after reopening. Very happy; no disappointment. Bear in mind it's a Wednesday so it was not full and therefore it didn't take long for the food. We felt that all items we had were made "with sincerity". Very good quality; size might be smaller for some items but the quality and taste was so much better.

The food at this place is so good, but today has to be one of the worst services I have ever experienced here.
It took over 90 mins for us to receive half of our order. We were sooo hungry.
I'm sad because the food here is so good, but I don't have time to spend over 3 hrs for a lunch. I don't think I will be returning. I'll just have to get my dim sum in Toronto next time.
Also the plastic covers on the table has sharp edges. My girlfriend kept getting cuts from them. I would be cautious if I had small children.
When our congee came they only gave us 2 spoons when we had 3 people at our table.
Finally, when we left after having enough of the wait (with half of our order not yet arrived) the only discount we received was "free tea", even though we never actually had tea. I have never seen a Chinese restaurant where simple tea costs money.
This has been extremely disappointing.

Great dim sum. Go early as it gets very busy. Service can be slow but well worth the wait. Made fresh to order and always served hot. Decor is beautiful and a bonus there is parking at side of building. You just have to know how to parallel park
Boris Bogatirev
Best hand made dim sum I've ever had. Definitely one of the best authentic cuisines in Ottawa
Heather Côté
Extremely slow service, indifferent staff, average food - I will never go back.
Basil Crozier
The best dim sum in Canada and even better than San Francisco and New York. You spoiled me for any other dim sum. Thank you re-open soon.
Rick Kahler
Best Dim Sum ever. Everything is made fresh, and tastes amazing.
Small place, and food takes a bit to come out, but is worth the wait!
Yukimura Doi
食物超差！叉燒包根本無味。服務效率九流，舖面得兩個人，做嘢不分重要性。差差差！
Sarah Rowland
Went to hung sum for the first time a few days ago, LOVE the pan fried dumplings and the Shrimp and chive dumplings are to die for!!! Only thing I was missing is the soup dumplings.
I had never had sesame balls but they were not what I was expecting, not my thing I guess.
Overall great food, would love to see in a larger location , can't wait to come again
Jennifer Charney
Awesome food, definitely worth the wait. Don't be in a rush, take your time, savor the flavors and enjoy. Fresh to order dim sum delicious!

This is the best Dim Sum I have had in Ottawa. The restaurant is located in an old house on Somerset, so seating is limited and sometimes chilly in the winter, but the food and tea are not! Service is quick, accurate, and concise. Food is made to order, so order everything up front, seconds can take a little time. Prices are fair. There is a definite feel of care and pride in the food.
