Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking on Stockton is limited and metered; nearby garages on Broadway and Kearny are the best bet.
Dress code: Casual—come as you are, no need to dress up for counter service.
Noise level: Low to moderate; mostly takeout traffic with little lingering conversation.
Weekend wait: Minimal wait since it’s primarily a takeout spot; peak around 6–7pm but moves quickly.
Weekday lunch: Short lines form at noon but usually no more than 5–10 minutes.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes—vegetable dumplings, scallion pancakes, and some noodle plates are available.
Vegan options: Limited—basic vegetable buns or noodles can work, but expect cross-use of cooking oils.
Gluten-free options: Very limited—most dim sum items use wheat flour; ask about rice noodle rolls for the safest option.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Not ideal—it's a compact counter-service spot geared toward quick takeout rather than atmosphere.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes—there are a few seats but mostly grab-and-go; no reservations needed or accepted.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes—families often stop by for quick dim sum. Limited seating and no high chairs, but easy to take food to-go.
Best For
Better for: Quick, affordable dim sum snacks without the wait times of larger sit-down dim sum houses.
Skip if: You want a leisurely dim sum meal with full service and atmosphere—try City View or Hang Ah instead.
