As a visitor from out of state, Ha Long Bay is a place to visit. In search of a place open for Christmas dinner, we originally went to Red Lobster (which was a mess). But noticed the open sign in the Ha Long Bay window. We ran next door and were seated quickly. It being Christmas, the restaurant and staff were slammed, but the staff did what they could and powered through. The food was delicious, even the dishes not pictured. (Not pictured are the Fresh Spring Rolls, Pho, or House Noodle Soup.) The staff and kitchen dealt with the onslaught of in-house diners, as well as to go orders--turning over tables for the next guest and getting orders out the kitchen. Should we find ourselves back at St Pete and this restaurant, I definitely want to try the dim sum!

Coming from California I had very low expectations for this place. It was surprisingly good. My friend and I ordered dishes that we've had for dim sum before. Most were acceptable or good but a few were definite misses. The black bean pork ribs lacked flavor and the taro dumplings were not sweet and had an odd taste to them, wouldn't recommend them. Also they only do 2 favorites (baked pork buns and egg custards) on the weekend which sucks.

The food was good. It's your typical dim sum restaurant. The food comes out fast. The service is also good. I recommend the beef short ribs they were super good and I think they would go good with an extra bowl of rice. I also had a pork and shrimp dumpling wrapped in tofu. I never had this before but it didn't disappoint!! I would order from here again!!

My friend was visiting for the wknd and she loves dim sum so based on other reviews I knew we had to come here. Arrived on a Sat at around 10:45am and were seated right away and it got busier as we were there, but there was already a good crowd when we arrived. They have the cart service so you are fed quickly. Many choices and all taste fresh. We tried crab balls, shrimp dumplings, footballs (crunchy outside with bbq pork), crunchy rice, steam buns, veggies and salt & pepper calamari ( probably forgetting a few things - oh ya, eggrolls). We took 3 boxes to go with leftovers. The unsweet tea is tasty! They have an assortment of sauces on each table. I will be back. Enjoy!

Dim Sum on weekends Saturday & Sunday - for big groups I do suggest calling for reservations!!!! I love their salty fish fried rice / beef chow fung / dim sum - Singapore Noodles & dessert ( sugar ginger silken tofu ). I have been going here for at least 20 years. Service is just ok - parking can be a pain during peek times because limited space. Recommend lunch over dinner & definitely recommend weekend dim sum - they pull the carts weekend only.

We came to Ha Long Bay today to have Dim Sum. Most of the dishes we ordered were delicious as always, except for the beef tripe. The favour was there but it was very hard and not as soft as it should be. So I mentioned to the waitress. My goal was to alert her to let the kitchen staff knows to steam it a little longer. She replied, " sorry, let me take it away for you and take it off from your bill". She did it without any hesitations. Thank you. The place is cleaned and busied as expected since the food here is good and top notch customer service. We definitely will be back again when we are in the area.

First time to eat here. Service was good... I kept it simple and ordered from the lunch menu with the addition of some wonton soup. Sweet and Sour chicken lunch came with rice and an eggroll. Sweet and Sour chicken was delicious... although the sauce could use more SOUR. It was pretty sweet (Americanized) lollipop sauce. I have an Cantonese recipe for this sauce that used Apple Cider Vinegar, and it is nice and tart / sweet. That is what I always hope for. Wonton soup was delicious, could have made a meal of just that and been very happy! Eggroll was huge, and really delicious! Rice... properly cooked, and not mush. Yum! All in all... a great lunch! I will be back!
