I noticed this place on the way to trying Good Mong Kok. The crowd of locals and lack of tourists caught my attention. So what did I do? I got the same items from both places and had a dim sum-off! Key Finding: the food and prices were nearly the same, but one was way easier to get into. The beef shui mai had a pleasant texture and thin wrapper; good flavors. I got sticky rice and pork wrapped in bamboo leaves. Also tasty with a hefty amount of filling, and they have both the kind with peanuts and with yellow mung beans. And of course I got an egg tart. This was tasty as any, though the bottom crust was a little dense. A minor complaint! The shop is tiny and the customer service just ok as you would expect from most Chinese bakeries. The parklet is still in place, but it didn't seem available that day. Overall, this is a solid bet if you want cheap dim sum in the neighborhood and don't want the hassle of a long line over at Good Mong Kok!

Wong Lee is a solid dim sum take-out restaurant. They have the regular dim sum staples such as siu mai and haw gow as well as chow mein by the pound and porridge. They also have the baked goods such as egg tarts and onion buns. $4 a pound for chow mein is not bad. The lines isn't as long as the places on Stockton St. Lunch was good today.

4/5 for me This is the sister restaurant of good mong kok. Same format and style but less of a wait. Most ppl waiting in line here will be locals as opposed to tourists so that's when you know! The prices here are crazy good for what you get. I like the baked pork bun, siu mai, shrimp dumpling, turnip cake, and their fried mochi dumpling. The chow fun is cheap and seems pretty fresh but I'd skip on it tbh. Get some to go dim sum and enjoy this delicious food at a nearby park. There is outdoor seating available but it's very limited - two tables. They also take credit card/Apple Pay for additional 3%.

***CASH ONLY*** It's best if you know what you want when you get to the counter as the women are ready to fill up bags for you! We got the turnip cake, steamed sticky rice, and some dumplings. All our picks were familiar flavors with no surprises - nothing too special, you know exactly what you'll get. This is in Chinatown-so very busy we unfortunately didn't get any egg tarts. And we went right before the CNY parade - our own fault for the long lines.

Bought back to San Jose many green onion breads, pineapple breads, pork song breads, shrimp dumplings, egg tarts, sticky rice, porriage, donut, and cha siu bao (steamed). Our coworkers and family loved it! Good quality! Good price! Friendly service.

As much i like their dim sum, i can no longer go. The chew chiu dumpling had a tiny piece of plastic inside. The daikon square had a tiny splinter. I was eating this in bright sunlight. I was actually looking at what i was biting into. I saw the plastic. I didn't see the splinter but tasted it. Not good. Watch what you put in your mouth.

Porridge was good and affordable. The staff there didn't understand my question in English and she was a bit rudeApparently is another branch of good mong kok but doesn't have the same variety

DELICIOUS chao fun, egg tarts, and shrimp chive dumplings. Wife cake, crispy pork dumpling, and char siu bao just okay. They do accept credit cards for over $10. I spent $16 and had food for days. Friendly customer helped me choose what to order. Great spot all around.

Wholesome down to earth good food for the money. The lady at the front was very patient with me despite the long line waiting behind me. That’s so atypical of Chinese food servers. Their “tai baos” were huge. One is more than a lunch for me. They also carry 3-4 kinds of jooks (congees). If greasy Chinese food gets to you, try jook. Excellent.

If we want to go dim sim, we always head here in chinatown. While the service may not be the best, they are quick if you know exactly what you want to get when you reach the front of the line. Their ha gows sui mais are not the best, but I do really enjoy their ham sui gok, taro balls & seasame balls. Each item is really large and cheap. This is a to go place with limited outdoor seating, so i recommend eating at the nearby parks if you can't get a spot.

Loooove coming here for a dimsum haul since the lines are so much shorter than other popular places and just as good/huge! The menu is easy to read, and they also have some dishes out in the display case so you can see what's available. My favorites here were the nuo mi ji (chicken sticky rice), shumai, and xia jiao (pork dumplings in rice wrapper). There was actually a little park let outside with two small tables you can sit at, which is pretty unique for a dimsum to go in this area! They also have egg tarts which is nice since you don't need to go to a separate store to get dessert. I like bringing the food back home to eat with chili sauce. My new favorite dimsum to go in Chinatown!

I went to order food in the evening today and there were shattered glass in the food. Unfortunately, I found out by taking pieces of the glass out of my mouth and I'm sure there were pieces that got swallowed. The pictures taken were only some of the many many broken glass that were spat out. My partner and I shared the food so we are very disappointed and concerned in what happened. I'm currently not feeling well so hopefully there is no internal bleeding going on.
