My favorite items are the egg rolls, preserved egg porridge, fried wonton, Chinese doughnut, various steamed dim sum and wonton noodles. This time, I ordered... People often mention good, pork,

    I've been a patron at TC Pastry for 20+ years. My haircut salon is down the block and my routine is to pick-up some dim sum after my haircut. My favorite items are the egg rolls, preserved egg porridge, fried wonton, Chinese doughnut, various steamed dim sum and wonton noodles. This time, I ordered wonton noodles $6.20, fried wontons $2.85, pork siu mai $3.50 (3 per order) and shrimp dumpling $3.50 (3 per order). The wonton noodles tasted good. I liked that clean soup taste. The fried wontons are greasy and will break apart in the plastic bag. The pork siu mai is great. It doesn't taste good though if it is cold or the next day. Be careful of their shrimp dumpling. Every time I order this, I'm disappointed. The staff is always nice to me. Maybe it is because I show up before they close and they are happy to get rid of the stuff they don't sell.

    Hole in the wall place with delicious dim sum to go. They egg tarts are made with the flaky crust which is so much more authentic and flavorful. They have both baked and steamed pork buns. Everything has great flavor.

    You know when the menu/ restaurant looks like (pics below), the food will be fire. I stumbled on this place recently and found their dim sum to be quite good, especially the sugar cakes and mango pudding. Overall its no thrills, but very well priced and good dim sum.

    Some of it can be on the greasy side and sometimes the freshness of the food isn't consistent.. but that doesn't stop me from going! Overall it's REALLY good, satisfying dim sum, and super cheap! Cash only!

    This is the best dim sum bakery south of the park, and a contender for best in the city. Don't sleep on closing discounts.

    Great selection. The BBQ buns had a lot of filling. Went around 3pm and the chefs were still making fresh dimsum which was a good sign. I would skip the egg tart next time.

    This place is great- cheap, flavorful, and fast! It’s takeaway only and they have a ridiculous amount of variety constantly coming out of the kitchen. Try everything ! It’s not going to be the best versions of dim sum out there but it’s definitely going to be good, especially for the money :)

    Everything was good!!! Shrimp dumplings, Siu Mai, Brown Sugar Sponge Cake, Hot and Spicy Wonton and Deep Fried Curry Puffs! 😋 Cash Only! 💰💵💸

    Great Chinese pastry, price is still very good where other stores have almost doubled their prices. A must stop if you are in the area.

    Whenever I crave fresh soy milk, this is my to go place. The staff are friendly and the menu can be overwhelming. I usually stick to the regulars: pork dumpling, shrimp dumpling and steamed bbq pork bun. Their sesame ball is different from other places with the red bean filling. They have the yellow filling, which is to my preference. Give it a try!

    Great dim sum and good prices. Quick service at the counter by staff.

    Good dim sum and very affordable for the city. Take away and cash only. Some items like bao, siu mai, etc are served cold unless you get there early, but still good.

    Service can be a little more friendly. But food is always good. Only one question. Why did the pork bun(not steamed) shrink in size? But it's still the same price
