Dim sum is excellent. Coming from Hong Kong, I've had great dim sum and these guys are up there! Prices are better than Hong Kong Bistro (next door) who has gotten quite greedy. This is now our regular spot for good dim sum.

Cozy spot right near King Street Station, busy but not too loud! Lots of locals there for late night, but the service was fast and friendly but non intrusive. Had the tofu & vegetable hot pot which filled and warmed me up just like I wanted -- had to add chilli sauce but thats no big deal. Very homestyle. Done forget to ask for hot tea!

We were around after midnight so it was great to know there's restaurants that run super late. We had some noodle soup, beancurd roll, vegetable dumplings, green beans and siomai. They served complimentary tea as well. Food wise the siomai was good, the beancurd as well. But the noodle soup the soup was a bit salty but tolerable. Also the soup got soaked up very quick. Additional soup is $5 extra which we forgone. Their service was very hospitable and went above and beyond. The ambiance is your typical Chinese restaurant brightly lit and really best for family style eating. Parking wise is mostly street parking so hit or miss on that depending on the events happening in the area. Overall though it's a great place to just come eat and hang out late night. I would definitely come back for more dimsum options too.

Always reliable and delicious! We used to come here after the bars/clubs because they're open late, but it's also become a spot to grab greasy Chinese food for when the cravings kick. Love their chicken wings, baked spaghetti, thousand year old egg pork congee, and beef chow fun!!!

First learned about Purple Dot during a noodle walking food tour with Wing Luke Museum. I had seen an update for its return to later hours. This came in handy driving back north from a late night concert (6/2/23). Something different from the usual default Dick's run. The stars aligned after detouring off I-5N and finding late night parking. The vicinity was hopping between Hong Kong Cafe, Honey Court, and Purple Dot on Maynard. We were immediately seated with menus and hot tea. Ravenous since our last meal was nine hours ago. Vast menu choices plus dim sum! Ordered siomai, custard buns, baked spaghetti, oyster sauce beef, and steamed rice. Everything hit the spot with the hot tea and copious refills of iced water. Definitely will need to return as other menu items looked intriguing. Support the CID! Glad for the late hour - great choice returning home from a road trip or the airport! Substantial, generous, and tasty. Great service too.
