Grasp the sparrow's tail ... if you know what that means the you will want to eat here...

This may be the only dim sum available ( to round eyes) in NYC... yeah it is that good. Not a place for yuppies, but if you really like dim sum or want to learn about it, well than this is your spot.

Went for saturday morning Dim Sum. Food okay but nothing to write home about. Mens restroom- disgusting w. no paper towels! There are much better, cleaner places to get Dim Sum in Chinatown.

• Pros: cheap
• Cons: average food, unclean

wash the floors of the stairs please

I do love some of the dim sum but if you are looking for a special experience, this is not the place. The rest rooms are downstairs and are just about barely acceptable. No paper towels and the hand dryer did not work. The steps down to the rest rooms were so sticky, the sole of my shoe stuck to each step, making that sticky snap sound on each and every step. I know that Chinatown has different charms than other neighborhoods, but all of the empty tables in the restaurant on a Sunday afternoon tell me the current managers better pick up their game.

• Pros: big room, seating is not a problem
• Cons: rest rooms barely acceptable: sticky steps just gross

good dim sum (if they don't run out)

by sortmon

we usually go to dim sum go go for dim sum, but we decided to spice up our routine with a visit here on saturday. im told that its usually pretty packed on weekends, but im guessing that due to the combination of horrible weather, labor day weekend, and our early visit time (12pm), we were offered a table right away.

like most of the dim sum restaurants in chinatown (w/the exception of go go), the dim sum is pushed around in carts by harried middle-aged women. i prefer the dim sum sheets at go go since you can check off what you like and ensure that you get to eat everything you set up for. i suppose some people like the surprise and the experience of picking and choosing what you want to eat from the carts.

we ended up having to wait a long time for the items that we wanted to finally be available and having to refuse the offerings of various intestines and of foods that we had already eaten. im sure that some of the other people in the restaurant were waiting for the exact same foods as us, because some things sold out before the cart could get to us.

the quality of the dim sum is pretty good, and the variety is ok as well. too bad they dont make more of the popular dishes.

• Pros: inexpensive, good dim sum
• Cons: things run out quickly, long wait for popular foods

This place has gotten worse & worse!

Had a very dissapointing meal at HSF today. Food was not fresh and service was poor. They didn't clean the table before we sat and there were stains on the table cloth and on the plates and utensils. Service was worse than ever. I won't be going back to this place and would not recommend it to my friends.

• Pros: Inexpensive
• Cons: Poor service, Poor food
