This is one of our fave places to go for weekend brunch. It's over a half an hour drive for me to get here, but it's the only place nearby with cart service unless I drive down to Philly. It's worth the trip. It's good dim sum, and the tiny dim sum appetizer menus at my local Chinese places don't compare. The dim sum menu here is good sized and has a good variety of the usual suspects, but there's also a regular menu with items found in regular restaurants. The dim sum menu on the weekend is expanded to include a couple dozen additional, special dishes not found on the weekdays. On Saturday, and especially on Sundays, you'll want to get there early to avoid the lines, but be careful about coming too early, as many of the special weekend dim sum menu items don't start to roll out on the carts until it gets closer to 11 AM. That said, you can order them from one of the roving wait staff if you don't see them as available. The same thing applies if you arrive after the weekend lunch rush, as the cart service seems to end when lunch is finished, and you need to order off the menu afterwards. Also, I've had them try to talk me into something I don't want, and you know it was just because they had a few left from the cart service, so don't be afraid to be firm with the "No" if they're persistent. Also, if you see a cart with something you like on it, and the cart isn't close by, you can ask the waiters, and they'll go grab a steamer of it for you. Don't be shy about this, as I've seen the carts get hijacked by diners there who haven't even finished sitting down at their table. Dim Sum is a take no prisoners event--enjoy it.

Came in for a short dim sum breakfast with our daughter a senior at Rutgers. Place was pretty busy so we ended up sharing a table with another party. Dim sum carts started pulling up next to us with their various foods and we went to find some good things. Tea was hot place was lively, and the food was good. Our go to place for Chinese cuisine.

A dim sum staple for anyone in the Edison-New Brunswick area. The food was fresh and the options plentiful. I went with a friend who speaks Cantonese and that definitely made the whole ordering process smoother. The dining room is spacious with plenty of round tables that looked like they seat 8. But it sure fills up fast!

This was my first Dim Sum business lunch with local Chinese realtors, mortgage bankers and title insurance representatives. They wanted another legal perspective on the changing conditions in their industry. It went very well, as the small plates/bowls/steamers were freshly made and delicious, and facilitated our wide ranging conversation. Golden Seafood uses paper menu order forms rather than traditional pushcarts which saves on labor and equipment cost, but reduces the charm from old fashioned hawking dishes table to table. It does make for fewer interruptions. Edison has become a center of Asian culture where all cuisine styles are available. Totally enjoyed my drive there from Bucks County, watching the changing signs from English to Chinese, Hindi and Korean. Hope to be invited to join these interesting business people again soon.

Super busy on weekends as everyone comes for dim sum - expect a little bit of a wait. If you are willing to share a table with another group, it'll move faster. There is decent variety in terms of dim sum offered and you can order off their full menu as well. There is ample parking as this is located in a plaza with several other restaurants.

Randomly craving dim sum in Edison while I was visiting my parents and Yelp led me to this place. Parking: Large free parking lot in a shopping center. Walking in: Lines are long on the weekend for lunch but I've never waited more than 10 minutes here. There are plenty of tables and this place is great for large groups. Dim Sum: Carts are only on the weekends during lunch time. Dim sum ordering is via menu on the weekdays (which is fresher). They do not serve dim sum for dinner. My go-to's when I come here: - Shrimp shumai - Steamed shrimp dumpling - Shrimp rice noodle roll - Steamed roasted pork bun - Steamed sticky rice - Sautéed Chinese broccoli Service: Not that great. Once you figure out what you want, flag down a waiter and order everything at once because you will never see your waiter again. But they will definitely bring you everything you order- including a fork for my dad who has yet to figure out chop sticks. Overall, the food here is fresh and tasty and one of these days I need to come back and try out their dinner menu.

Our party of 12 came here with a Friday night reservation for 6:30 PM. We weren't celebrating anything in particular but we did order a lot of the classic birthday dishes, including fried flounder, lobster, abalone, chicken, conch with fried tofu and shrimp, fried shrimp with mayo, sweet and sour pork ribs, longevity noodles, and fried rice. I haven't had this type of traditional Cantonese food in years, so this was very nostalgic for me. My favorites were definitely the fried flounder and the lobster. The shrimp with mayo was a little disappointing because it was just a lot of batter. Typically, it should just be a light coating, so that was a bit different. Although this is a bit far for me, I think I would still be willing to make the trek every once in a while, especially since there isn't really any authentic Cantonese food by my neighborhood.
