Excellent in town Dim Sum spot. Conveniently located by South Station in Chinatown. The food was fresh and delicious. The staff were super friendly and helpful. It's a huge space and I believe it has two floors. Very nicely decorated and people from all backgrounds frequent the place.

We arrived on a Sunday morning for dim sum, and the entire place was packed. We got a few things and we special ordered the porridge. Everything here was very enjoyable. In my personal experience, nothing tasted too special, but nothing we ordered was bad. I would consider trying this place out again in the future.

Went here on a rainy afternoon when I had a 2 hr changeover in Boston. The pork Shumai was the best. Get the roasted pork bun just for the sweet bun. I ordered the red bean cake; maybe it’s an acquired taste but I felt it was just okay.

It is a gem of a place, but some of the online information is incorrect for example, the Uber took me to their old address, but the new place is lovely! I got in a assortment of dim sum and I was very pleased, the service was excellent and I really enjoyed the food

The restaurant is big enough with two floors but usually crowded, there are many choices of food and desserts, they are delicious and well priced. We don't need to order, staff will serve food in carts and we can choose. We can try more if we have a group of 3 or more cause dimsum, dumpling, bao are usually come in 3 pieces;) Update: they serve on cart till 3p.m so I recommend to have breakfast or lunch there to get the feeling of choosing food on it way rather than ordering and waiting:)

Dimsum is served on served on carts. You catch the attention of the lady pushing a cart past your table, and choose the item you want and have your card marked. The servers are friendly and efficient. The dimsum mouthwatering and delicious. 8 orders, a pot of tea, and a can of soda later and my bill came up to for $45.58. Would definitely recommend????

Hei La Moon relocated to the old Chau Chow City location. It is much smaller than the old HLM space but it still works because they don't have the carts anymore. The roasted pork flaky pastry (char siu so) didn't have any taste and it was one of the things I really wanted to try. However, the rest were mostly decent to good. My favorite and surprisingly they still have it was the black sesame mochi balls in sweet ginger soup. The staff members were great. They always put on a smile and eagerly helped to box up leftovers.

Great dimsum and well price. Comfy and not loud. Average dimsum price $5.95 for small and medium size dishes

Food measures up! My second visit and I would recommend in a heartbeat. Service is fast and courteous. Only thing I would want is chart service!! I might have gotten there after chart service so that could explain it. The ambiance is welcoming and feels like a Chinese Dim Sum place!

Food: Dim sum was AMAZING, came with a party of 16, and we all enjoyed the dishes very much so. So much variety to choose from- their desserts are all really good as well! Service: It's on a cart, luckily we had some Cantonese/Mandarin speakers with us who were able to help order, but everything was really fast.
