We noticed a sign in the window that they serve dim sum daily from 11 - 3 and decided to give it a try.
The dim sum was pretty good, but some of the items were a little greasier than usual. They had the standard dim sum fare (spare ribs, shiu mai, chicken feet, chi chung fen, various dumplings...), but since they aren't strictly dim sum and the place isn't that big, the selection wasn't as varied as a 'dim sum place' like Maxim or Mark's Duck House.
Some of the dumplings (particularly the ones with shrimp or scallops) had a kind of strange texture, but were still tasty. You can opt for things off the regular lunch menu too, and it seemed like the owner would be willing to make something for you if you asked. Another table had a deep fried flounder that looked amazing.
I used to come here fairly often for their duck, shrimp dumpling, or roast pig noodle soup and the deliciously garlicy spinach, but had not been back in a long time. They've updated the insides and it looks pretty nice. I'll probably be back, but for some soup.
Overall, I thought it was a pretty good restaurant; above average for Chinese cuisine in Springfield. Decor was nice. Everything seemed clean, including the bathrooms. I went here for lunch and they had a HUGE menu; in fact the menu had too much. I was a little overwhelmed with the choices so we stuck to the basics. I did find the dishes we had to be too oily and greasier than usual Chinese cooking. But, it might be an isolated thing and I probably will be back to try again.
