    Sunday brunch, they were full! We had a great time. Tea was refilled often, brought us cold water several times. Good food. Bathrooms clean. Will be back!

    Servers should be reminded that a warm attitude and basic courtesy—like a friendly greeting, attentiveness, and a simple “thank you”—go a long way, especially when an 18% service charge is mandatory.

    Had dinner there last night. Service was the worse especially given the prices charged and the 20% tip already included. We had to constantly try and flag down our waiter to ask for chili oil, drinks, and the rice we ordered. The rice came almost at the end of the meal when when we were almost done with our entrees. The most difficult part was getting the attention of our waiter who never checked in on us. If you want a meal where you spend most of the time trying to get all your food and drinks you ordered, this is the place for you. In summary, poor service, small portions, high prices, and tip included for service not earned.

    Been here a few times. Staff is always rude. Food was decent. Location is good to walk ferry building after. Will not be back again.

    Avoid being seated in back area near the bar and service area. Very noisy and difficult to enjoy the experience.

    Great food, great location, great view and great service, and clean! Of course, there are other less expensive dim sum restaurants that would be less expensive, but Harborview is worthwhile.
