" While I appreciate the effort to provide vegetarian options, I feel the flavors were quite muted compared to regular dim sum spots. The service was friendly but the pace was slow. I enjoyed the watermelon salad but left feeling like I missed out on the authentic experience my friends promised. It’s worth a try if you’re curious, but don’t expect the bold flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited this restaurant after hearing so many positive things about it. The mock BBQ pork bun was delightful, as was the fresh ginger tea. It’s not a fancy place, but the food had a homely feel to it, reminiscent of home-cooked meals. I would recommend it to any vegetarian looking to indulge in flavorful, authentic dim sum without the meat. Just make sure to get cash before heading there! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went here on a weekday and found it surprisingly easy to get a table. The dim sum experience was enjoyable, but the lunch rush made things a bit hectic, and our service faltered at times. I recommend the turnip cake, which is a standout! Overall, while I appreciated the vegetarian focus, I feel like the dishes were not as exciting as I'd hoped. I left feeling satisfied, but I wouldn't rush back unless with a group. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is not your typical dim sum restaurant. The vegetarian aspect adds a refreshing twist. I loved their mock duck with a tangy sauce, it was superb! However, I noticed some of my friends found the texture unique, which may not be everybody's cup of tea. Overall, I had a great meal. Would definitely recommend for adventurous eaters! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have mixed feelings about this place. On one hand, I appreciate the availability of vegetarian dim sum in this area and the nostalgic vibe of the restaurant. On the other hand, my last experience left me wanting more. I ordered the egg rolls which were decent, but the servings felt smaller than I remembered, and they could've used a bit of seasoning. I did enjoy the red bean buns, which had a lovely sweetness to them! The service was attentive, but the entire experience felt a bit disjointed. I might give it another shot someday if I'm in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" Why wasn't I aware of this charming spot sooner? The vegetarian dim sum is absolutely delicious! I personally enjoyed the mock duck; it has that unctuous texture that usually gets lost in vegetarian adaptations. Just be mindful of the cash-only policy, but honestly, the variety and quality of dishes make it worth it. I will definitely be returning very soon to explore more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try this place, given all the positive reviews. I loved the variety on the menu, but several dishes were a bit on the bland side. The lotus root cake was my favorite, though! I think there’s a lot of potential here for good vegetarian dim sum, but I just wish the flavors were cranked up a notch. Overall, it was a decent experience but could improve. " (*Curated Review*)
