As I was going to Grand Street today, I decided to stop for dim sum. Chinatown was not crowded due to the long July 4th weekend. I decided to go to Oriental Garden which had no queue. Then I saw the ‘B’ grade which was a surprise but it could have been as simple as a dishcloth in the wrong place. The tables were filled with people eating away. Dim sum is served here either with ladies pushing carts or ordering from a menu. I started with pork shumai.. Then I had shrimp overload with shrimp dumplings and the shrimp rice roll. The rice roll wrapper was too thick and not as silky as I have had at other restaurants. A couple sitting at my table gave me an egg custard tart which had a flaky crust and a pleasant flavor.
Good dim sum and spring rolls filled with shrimp along with shrimp wrapped in rice noodles. All in all they are pretty quick with bringing dishes in and out (so the food was hot) and the food was decent.
Fantastic. Everything tasted great; up to Hong Kong standards, in my opinion. Exceptionally gracious, patient, and friendly staff. Glad we skipped the line/mob outside Jing Fong and went two doors down. Got seated immediately.
I made reservations for 4:30pm on a Sunday for a party of eight. When we arrived on time our party was on the top of their reservation list. The manager kept looking around at his tables and told us they had reservations at many tables and we would have to leave in one and a half hours. Then we were seated at a table that was too small for a party of eight, especially if you share plates. The food was good but not great. Well before an hour and a half while we were still eating we were asked several times if we were finished.
Busy. Good sign. Some of the best dim sum in new york. Every dish seemed that little bit better. Or I was just hungry:
I’d not recommend the duck. 80 per cent of it was just bone or fat. The Wantan soup wasn’t good either.
A favorite for dim sum!! Always fresh and delicious. Weekdays around 12 is the perfect time to go!! Get the Hong Kong fried rice made with egg whites and shrimp. You will not be disapointed!
