text: Recommended by a friend He made it sound exclusive since dim sum was open twice a year I felt that the dim sum style food could have been better if they focused on that and left the buffet of sea food out It was tasty but some that came out was cold They did not have the chili oil like most Chinese restaurants I go to in San Diego that was ok though since the items we had were a tad salty The non dim sum items are great though fresh raw oysters crab legs lobster nigiri I actually asked the guy behind the sushi bar if I could have pieces with out rice he said they usually do not give it out like that but he made an exception for me to bad those pieces were so thick I wanted to ask for a piece of the octopus but felt like I was going to inconvenience him so I walked down the buffet line there was a yummy octopus and cucumber salad probably the best thing on the buffet They had a surplus of fresh fruit mandarin oranges cherries rambutan I did not feel like working for my food though Desert bar was pretty cool decent but not great I really wish they more focused on dim sum though Next to sushi dim sum is my favorite Maybe I will go this weekend when I get home to San Diego
