"This 'palace' offers the quintessential Hong Kong dim sum experience. It's cheerful, it's noisy and it takes place in a huge kitschy hall with dragon decorations and hundreds of locals. A dizzying assortment of dim sum is paraded on trolleys the old-fashioned way."

"The highlight? Shrimp wontons with a thin, super SUPER crisp outside and juicy prawn filling. Best ever."

"In Hong Kong dim sum, that ticking metronome is Maxim’s. They make the classics in plenteous quantity and they do it consistently well. Whatever your expectations are about Maxim’s dim sum, it is likely that they’ll be met."

"If there is one restaurant that epitomizes dim sum culture in Hong Kong, this is it. Ladies pushing carts of steaming bamboo baskets while barking out the day's specials, a perfect dim sum Sunday."
