First time I came here for dinner. Lamb dish and beef in squash were very good. I learned that they have dim sum for lunch and decided to give that a try. Came back in few days for dim sum and really enjoyed it. Both times I was served good tea with my food. Servers were very friendly.

Been there at least 4 times. Has typical "American Chinese" on menu but also traditional Chinese dishes which I prefer to try. Always good!!! Good vegetarian dishes as well as meat dishes. The green beans and bok choy are great. Try the lettuce wrap chicken appetizer.

Well this is the worst service that I had in years. The moment that the host recognised that we spoke Mandarine, they start to treat us badly. They let Cantonese speaking guests cut in line in front of us AND let us wait for half an hour when we clearly see an open table. When we are seated, they co...

Loved it! Old school dim sum on carts! Everything taste great, like my childhood in NYC Chinatown! The wait wasn't bad on a Saturday lunch rush. Try everything if you are new to dim sum only then you would ever know what you like :) The cart ladies were much nicer then the wait staff. They sh...

Good dim sum place in Bergen county. In the heart of fort Lee is Aquarius seafood, they have all the selection as you would find in any Chinatown, Brooklyn and queens dim sum places, I would say as good as most of them. Come early, it gets packed quick. The valet parking is a nice touch

Food is good. It might be an advantage if you speak Chinese. Place is always packed but there's free valet parking that's owned by the restaurant that's good for 2 hours then $10 for every half hour after 2 hours. Since it's always packed, you might have to share a table with someone.

Called in the morning to place an order for 2 Peking duck ($100 order). After waiting for over an hour they gave us our food with a simple sorry for the wait . The line of upset and impatient customers, canceling orders and walking out should ve been a working sign.
They didn t try to fix the sit...

I've been here twice. The food was great but the service was poor especially on my second visit. Waited 1/2 hour for our appetizer and the entrees came in slowly. What I noticed also was others who came after us got their food in timely fashion. Maybe you have to be Asian or white to get a proper se...

As a Cantonese, the dim sum here is beyond what I will simply call good. Every weekend morning there is a long queue and an expected waiting time of about 40 minutes. But it never stop me driving for one and a half hours every weekend the join the queue. But the hidden gem is their Cantonese dinner ...

After rebranding, this place serves pretty high quality Chinese food. Staff here are super helpful at finding best options for you to eat. Does get overwhelming if it is busy.
Edit: went again for dim sum, which IMO is better than their normal menu. Overall the taste and quality are much better tha...

Delicious authentic chinese dimsum in fort lee. Very nice decor, feels like an upscale chinese restaurant. Staff are friendly and attentive and service is quick even if you order from the menu. Only reason i give this place a 4 star is because of their fried calamari. The batter they used tastes lik...

I love this place. It's great for dim sum and other favorites like Peking pork chops, golden fried rice, walnut shrimp, braised tofu, curry beef stew in a kabocha squash, fish maw soup, the list goes on! This must be the best Cantonese restaurant in Bergen!

Thoroughly enjoyed the soup dumplings (I'm uncultured so I don't know the proper terminology) and the pork dumplings. A Chinese friend of mine had strongly recommended I go with a Chinese friend, but I didn't have that option because it was a family dinner. I also tried the fried lobster and it was ...

Fresh food, great prices and sizeable portions. I enjoyed my birthday dim sum meal here. Unfortunately the tray cart dumplings were a bit on the colder side. The ones from the back came out hot and fresh. Felt a bit understaffed for the amount of people. Would absolutely come back.

Good Chinese food... Authentic Cantonese cuisine, decent service.

July 21, 2019 UPDATE
Apparently there is a new head chef in town, as the quality of the dim sum has greatly improved. We stopped coming here about a year ago because of the declining quality/taste of the dim sum.... But we decid...

Wavered between two and three stars here. Went with three because the staff seems nice and some of the food was quite good.
First I'll say that the wait staff is attentive and nice. Second, and this addresses that appreciation for this place could be a matter of personal preferences... despite my...

Being that this is the only Dim sum restaurant across several towns in the area, this establishment does very well. Standard menu is great but, dim sum can be hit or miss. Quality of food is good but, depending on which dim sum dish you are endulging on, flavors and texture of food was not always c...

I feel so fortunate to have this authentic Cantonese restaurant in the neighborhood, and I don t need to travel to Flushing anymore! I had a family gathering there, the great service and food quality made all my family members wanted to go back again. It s a BYOB restaurant, and it allows you to br...

Not a bad place for dimsum. The quality is definitely there, but the selection is pretty small.

There was only one cart for the steamed dimsum, one cart for the pastries dimsum, and one cart for the porridge.

So the selection is small, but the prices are OK, and the quality is decent.
