Oriental East

Really good Dim Sum! Really fresh, and a good selection. All the food is still on carts. Nothing fancy, just plain good dim sum. The lines of the weekend can get super long, so I would recommend going a little earlier. Also, if you are a table of two, you can get put in the corner slightly and not many carts come by, so I would recommend going with a larger party, so you can be in the main dinning room, where the carts circle a lot more.

1. Service - Quick, friendly, & attentive.2. Taste of food and quality of food - One of the top three Dim Sum places in MD. Portion size was just enough & not too salty.3. Ambiance/decor - Love the bustling dim sum cart on weekends. Chinese decor.4. Cleanliness - Looked & felt clean throughout.

Just before I start, I want to say that people, stop complaining about the lines and the service, if a place has great dim sum, what would you expect? No one present? And you're there to eat, not to be served like a king. Anyways, now that's out of the way, I really liked that place, we only spent $35 and we were as full as we can be. I also liked how the pricing system worked, was organized and simple. As a Chinese, I can classify fake, American dim sum to real, Chinese dim sum, honestly, when I entered the place, I did not expect real Chinese dim sum, but I saw one of the carts go by, and I was tearing in joy. We ate so much, that we felt like we just gained 70 pounds. Everything was great, I saw other people eating and they were satisfied too. I hope this restaurant keeps on growing in all of its glory, and keep making the great dim sum that they've always made.
