Precious Island Tea Shop

Restaurant serves up a fairly standard dim sum menu. Food was decent. The disappointment was when I asked for a glass of water. Waiter told me they only sold bottled water and don't have tap. This felt like a sad way to make money off customers. They don't have tap water?!?!

Better than many places in Chinatown! We don't hv to travel so far to get dim sum anymore. It's our family favorite!

Food is good but need to keep eye on your check ! They charge tea fee for kids ! But you can ask them to avoid it

We went there for dim sum and it was mediocre. When we arrived, there was only two other tables but the service was slow. Good if you don't want to travel into outer boroughs for dim sum. Better off going to East Pacific at Staten Island mall. Food and service much better.

Probably one of the only dim sum places in Staten Island, to be honest. They make the classic authentic dishes that I can find in great restaurants in Brooklyn and Chinatowns, like Phoenix claws, cha kueh, and steamed rice rolls. The place is popular for this reason and very crowded on weekends, even towards the later dim sum hour after 1-2 pm.The workers can be a bit varied in temperament, with the one who does seating, cashier, and delivery appearing a bit snappish, since they do like three jobs. Servers can be super attentive but also extremely busy helping customers who don't know menu items at all, since this place doesn't have only Chinese customers. They are very helpful.The food is always pretty good. I usually enjoy their seafood noodles the best, as it has crispy noodles mixing with the vicious sauce and plenty of mollusks. For dim sum, I recommend the pork ribs and any of the rice rolls, from shrimp to fried dough.The crowded and loud nature of the place is pretty much the atmosphere of any thriving dim sum tea hall, and it is a nice place to sit and catch up with family and friends.
