"Hidden gem. The food is all the things you love about Chinese food and missing all the things you don’t like. Food was fresh, not oily, not over sauced, not too salty, and served high quality meats and seafood. Great spot for large groups and has giant TVs on one wall so you can still watch the game from your table. We forgot to take a picture before we started eating. The supreme seafood in XO sauce that our waitress recommended was delish and served on a unique and tasty deep fried mashed potato ring (sounds odd describing it but it was good and had nice presentation). Chicken and asparagus was also delicious."

Delicious dim sum and desserts. Affordable prices. Nice ambiance. Everything was piping hot and tasted really fresh. The staff and servers were attentive and brought the dim sum dishes around often. It reminded me of going to dim sum restaurants in Malaysia. The food was great. Definitely try the sesame balls and egg tarts for dessert!

Stand alone Chinese restaurant outside of Boston China town. Their dim sum dishes were very good quite authentic considering being on another side of the pacific from the birth place of dim sum. My favorite are shumai, chicken feet, and turnip cake. The restaurant is pretty large with plenty of seating, staff are friendly and helpful. They still push dim sum trollies around for you to choose the dishes, pretty cool.

"I have dined here about a half dozen times. The food is great. The service is not. I was surprised to hear that anyone had good service here because I consistently have had slow, inattentive or down right rude service here. We go back because it's convenient and we work very close by, but our last experience we stood for more than 8 minutes waiting to be acknowledged, the server who finally came over was downright rude. We saw her drop things from someone's table and kick those things across the room. We finally got seated and waited another 15 minutes for someone to come to the table. Their patio had people out there but there was no one inside but it looked like they had only 2 servers working. Our sandwiches did not come with any pasta salad or anything on the side like they used to and our table was missing the two non-alcoholic beverages that were ordered until half way through the meal. My advice is to try Brelundi, perhaps you will have a different experience than we have had. If you like Italian food, the food is worth the wait. The bread is delicious, the pasta and sandwiches and salads are great. Just be aware that your service may be extremely slow, they will forget items and may be rude to you. Also, any time we have gone (at lunch time) I was berated and not seated for not having a reservation so I now make sure I call and make reservations before attempting to go there or we get take out."
