From the moment we arrived, things didn't start off well. The decor was noticeably dirty, which usually wouldn't bother me too much, as I've found that some unkempt Chinese restaurants can still serve amazing food. However, that wasn't the case here. The food was subpar at best, and they got our order wrong. We specifically asked for ribs in a certain style, but what we received was nothing like what we ordered. When we pointed this out, they insisted we had requested a different dish. The BBQ Pork Ding was especially bad— I would give it zero stars— as the meat was tough and inedible. To make matters worse, the portions for each dish were quite small. The only bright spot was the mayonnais...

Had been there often and it had been much better before. Perhaps it was an off day. We could not eat most of what we ordered. What we brought home, the chow fun was so greasy that it took several paper towels to soak up the oil. The Shanghai dumpling dough was not heated through. Felt like the dumplings were warmed up in the microwave. Staff were never warm and friendly before. But they looked so grumpy that day it was almost funny. The most helpful was a bus boy who seated us and gave us water and what we asked for while the wait staff were either busy or chatting with customers they were familiar with. It was too bad. We had enjoyed many lunches and had a very nice Chinese New Year dinner...
I arrived a little early. The hostess was very rude and told me to sit and wait. After 15 min, I called someone to seat me (the restaurant was nearly empty and it was 10 min past my dining time). It was as if they did not want us there. It took another 10 min for us to be served. The food (noodle soup) was bland and the waitstaff did not speak english. It is also very over priced for what you get. I would not recommend this restaurant unless you are a Chinese national. Not sure they want anyone else there.
This used to be one of our favorite dim sum spots nearby, but I feel the quality has declined, along with the service. Although there were plenty of waitstaff in jackets walking around, it was difficult to get their attention for placing orders, requesting water, or asking for the bill. They seemed to intentionally avoid eye contact, opting to look over our heads instead. Overall, it wasn't a relaxing or enjoyable meal, especially considering we drove 40 minutes to be there.

The food is OK, but the amount of food compare with the other restaurant are way more less. The service is poor. So many waiter and waitress, nobody care about you, you have to rise your hands to get services. Few of our dishes were sitting at kitchen too long and got cold arriving our table. Lots of dishes on the menu were told that they didn't server.
I went with group of friends for Dim Sum lunch. Food was good but service was fair. The restaurant was busy during lunch time on Saturday that I recommend making reservation, especially for a large party. I like the idea of ordering Dim Sum out of the list instead of picking from the carts.
We went specifically for live seafood as we have had it before and it was amazing, but they had absolutely nothing in the tanks. The service was ok. They forgot one of our drinks, and were not especially friendly. The food was fine, but we've had better for cheaper.
We all enjoyed the experience and have been to ABC many times. My daughters' wedding reception was held here. We shall continue to return for good food and convenience. Book a table now
I had a fantastic birthday celebration at this restaurant. The Peking Duck set menu was excellent!
The food and service were outstanding. We had a wonderful dinner to celebrate my wife's birthday.
