El Pt

"This place has great reviews, so since I was in the neighborhood, I decided to check it out. The food was just okay. The soup dumplings were mediocre, and the chicken chow fun was fine but a bit bland. Ironically, the best thing I had was the jasmine tea. The most disappointing part, however, was the service — or rather, the lack of it. The restaurant was nearly empty, yet it took a long time to get a waiter’s attention just to place my order. Dirty dishes were left piling up and were only cleared after I finished eating and paid. There was no one around to even ask for a napkin. I dislike leaving a small tip, but the staff’s attitude felt as though they were doing customers a favor by being there. Given the service, it was hard to justify tipping at all."

"Walking into HEY YUET feels like stepping through a time capsule straight to 1950s Hong Kong warm lights, vintage décor, and the comforting aroma of freshly steamed dim sum. Great aesthetic and an extensive menu featuring authentic Cantonese cuisine."

"The location was amazing, just right next to our hotel. When we first arrived from the airport, of course we went there, and we definitely didn’t regret it. The food came out super fast, everything was tasty and great. The only thing I’d wish for is that the staff could be a bit more welcoming — sometimes we didn’t fully understand the menu and it would’ve been nice to have it explained in a friendlier way. I totally get they deal with hundreds of questions every day, but still. Other than that, everything was really cool and they’re doing a great job!"

"Definitely 5 star. The SERVICE IS REALLY GOOD!!! The waiter brought me extra napkin without me even having to ask, and they do not stare at you when you give the tip (I gave 18% which is high for me but they really deserve it). So is the vibe. The restaurant was very quiet and chill, with music playing at a very nice volume level. You just feel comfortable staying for longer, and even if you’re eating alone, there’s no pressure of finishing your food at all. The food is very decent - got the beef stir fry noodles 干炒牛河, scallop shaomai, ginseng and silkie chicken soup花旗参竹丝鸡汤。I would recommend the chicken soup - it might be a bit salty for some, but just right for me. A lot of meat in the soup cooked tender, with ginseng and 枸杞goji berries. The restroom is also very clean. Would recommend 100/100"

"The food here is okay. None of the food we ordered came hot. Most of it was slightly warm or room temp. Portions are small for the prices. The pan fried dumplings here are good. Well filled and not too doughy. I would come here and just order a few serving of the pan fried dumplings. They are superior to the soup dumplings, which you can skip. I like that they serve both steamed and crispy roast pork buns but they weren't hot. The beef chow fun is tasty. I would recommend it. And the Chinese broccoli is delicious. This restaurant can randomly get very busy. Make a reservation if you can."
