    The Dim Sum Basket is a really nice place to dine. The restaurant is clean, spacious, and has a classy, standard look, which makes the overall dining experience enjoyable. 🥟✨ The taste and quality of the dim sum were overall good, and everything was nicely presented. The service was also good and the staff were attentive. The only downside for me was the price, which felt quite high compared to the portion and overall experience. However, considering the cleanliness, atmosphere, food quality, and service, it was still a good dining experience overall. Overall: Good food, great ambience, clean place, and good service — just a little expensive. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
