Tropical Chinese Restaurant

Went there for the first time this weekend. I've been longing for good Dim Sum since leaving DC, and had actually been told that "carted dim sum" wasn't a thing here in Miami. Boy are they wrong, this was great and just about as good as we had in DC. We got there and was one of the first tables to be seated, everything was freshly prepared, and tasted great! The service was good, and it was the typical dim sum place - "try it, it's good you'll like it" but not overly pushy. Three of us ate for around $50.00, which is on par with the prices we paid in DC, and we got a lot of different pieces and plates. Ranging from dumplings to spring rolls and others. I'll be back soon and often!
Terrible experience. The service was awful. Waited forever in waiting list only to get cut behind others that arrived late with same party size due to them knowing the staff. The host was dismissive and rude. Not recommended.
Do not buy the dim sum, they try to push it on you and you end up paying a fortune and feeling hungry. Order a plate of chicken or beef with noodles, wait patiently and resist their constant nudging to buy off the cart, which is expensive, in the end. The service was not great, but the food is tasty. If you want to get full, go to an Asian themed buffet, and spend less in the process. Still an interesting experience. The parking lot is quite cramped.
We had dim sum here for brunch. I would say they were OK, not great though, but the waitress were very nice. Seems to be over priced, we paid about 50$ for two people, including tips. Better dim sum in Boston would cost less than 40$.
This place is amazing! Fresh quality authentic cantonese cuisine. My favorite are the Har-Gao (Shrimp Dumplings). Don't come here to order Chinese-American Food as it will be more expensive than your average cheap chinese restaurant. You should order from the dim sum menu and other items. Don't come here to order Chicken Fried rice. I've been to China before and this is as authentic as it can be. Highly recommended!
