Fifty bay has been my favorite go to dimsum spot lately due to its proximity and consistently good dimsum! They have a good variety here and everything is pretty flavorful without being sickly oily. I particularly enjoy the pink rice rolls that come with a flaky, fried shrimp inside as well as the matcha lava buns. I believe they only have the pink rice rolls on the weekend! The other usuals that I always order are the shumai, meatball, taro wu gok, and the egg tarts, all which are all pretty up to standard. Sadly, the chive dumpling which is my fav dish, was cold both times I got it, but still packed with shrimp and chive! Service is fine but the wait can get long during the weekends since the restaurant is relatively tiny. Takeout is next door, you can call ahead of time to avoid waiting since parking on the street can be a hit or miss. I saw a few iffy reviews about dinner but would consider giving it a try to see for myself!

Solid dim sum spot with nice options if you are willing to venture a bit further out of downtown flushing. We've gotten both take out and dined in here and will say that they have a good variety of fresh dim sum, I especially love their matcha lava buns which are unique to Fifty Bay. Service is as good as it gets for a dim sum spot and price is pretty comparable to other dim sum parlors in the area. Would recommend checking out if you're looking for a new dim sum spot in the Flushing area!

Came here a couple of times for dinner. It is recommended to make reservations if you have a large party and it gets really busy during dinner. The few times we been here the food was decent. We usually order the shrimp with Mayo, Peking pork chop, chicken, stir fried vegetables and the longevity noodles. The last time we went the food wasn't that good. Not sure if they had a new chef but the food was either over cooked or stale. We tried dim sum here as well. We came after 12pm and it was very busy. They have lots of selections for dim sum and the portion size is good. It is definitely better when it is freshly made. The food was a little on the bland side.
