Give 3 stars for the food.If loving dumplings is wrong, we don’t wanna be right, especially if said dumplings come off a wheeling cart during the ever-popular Chinese-style brunch, dim sum. As for the food, dim sum were good, dinner dishes were mediocre, jalapeño chicken was flavorless. We could get Americanized Asian food anywhere w/o being treated like this. We drove across town here for the dim sum at dinner time, but it’s not really worth it at all. I had to walk to the register and ask for to-go containers and our check… sigh! I’m really disappointed of the service. No acknowledgment when I politely ask for refills on water, and no surprise, never came with check at the end. Never came back to ask how were the food nor needing anything else. We needed couple more minutes to look at the menu, but she never came back for about 10+ minutes till finally I called her attention while she passing by our table several times without looking at us. First time I thought she was having a bad day, but the 2nd time she’s the same way… seemed angry. Literally no smile at all on her face, no greeting not attentive…. Came here 3 times since last June (2020), twice during brunch Dim sum and once for dinner, two out of three were seated at the table with this very unhappy waitress. Only if I could give ZERO star for the service – No service. Unfortunately, they don’t have a very large selection of dim sum. ![]() I have also never heard of anyone chasing anyone down let alone accusing them of not tipping especially if they were the ones that made the mistake. The amount people tip should depend on the level of service they feel they received and should be able to be adjusted not simply included in the total bill. ![]() I would like to say that we have no problem with tipping and usually tip very well but feel that some restaurants are abusing this system. My husband was polite the whole time she “double checked” our receipt and she apologized when she saw everything was correctly charged and went back inside. We think one of the employees saw nothing written on the “tip” section of the credit card receipt and thought we did not tip! We aren’t sure why the manager would even question it as she was the one who gave us the check and stated that the tip was already included in the total. As he is waiting, the manager had the audacity to run outside and say that they “forgot” to charge something on our bill (we assume this being the tip). He then bought my son outside to wait for the rest of us to wash our hands. When it came time to sign the credit card receipt, he drew a line in the tip row (because it had already been included) and just wrote the total at the bottom and then signed his name and gave it back to the waitress. My husband politely nodded his head and paid. The manager/owner explained to us before we gave her our credit card that the 20% tip was already included in the price of the check. Everything was going smoothly until it came time to pay the bill. Our family of 5 decided to try out the dim sum here as we were missing the NY/Houston dim sum scene and Austin no longer had any good dim sum places. ![]()
