Chinatown - Halifax

Beautiful atmosphere and amazing dim sum! Jane is always so welcoming to us all! Love her.

My partner and I went to Chinatown and the sign said open. However, no one was at the front of the restaurant. There where many asians leaving with leftovers and were still many asians in the restaurant. No one came to greet us, but someone was busy cashing people out in the upper level. We won’t go back!

My second time out to Dim Sum, my first time at this restaurant.The food was delicious, however, the service was lacking a bit. It was hard to get the attention of any staff. One of our dishes was mistakenly forgotten about.Nice view of Bedford Basin, not too loud in there either.Parking: Not a lot of parking in the area.Dietary restrictions: Open to any dietary restrictions you had.

Not like the original Chaintown on the basin, which had gone downhill when managment changed. They're tried to bring in different Asian or Indian foods. Now new location, management/owners, almost as good as original. Had the meat egg rolls with homemade plum sauce, whole crispy barbecued duck, pork fooyoung, and Chinatown fried rice. Delicious! Ordered for 5:30 pickup. On time.Parking: There is small parking lot down back and a bit of parking near buildingWheelchair accessibility: Concrete walk/ramp to door and I believe inside. If not they do have dining on main floor.

First time trying their weekend Dim Sum. Three of the dishes were quite accurate, but two (shrimp dumplings, steamed dumplings in Shanghai style) were not pleasant. Something went wrong with the wrapper of the shrimp; it just fell apart and crumpled when attempting to lift it. The steamed dumplings Shanghai style are supposed to have soup inside. One of our favourites, it was dry and lacked flavour.Also, steamed beef balls are quite easy to make, but were not included on the menu. This is a very standard dish elsewhere.Siu Mai, steamed pork rice roll, steamed sticky rice in leaf, and deep fried taro were good.So so.
