In Short Lakeside is focused on its food, not it's décor--just as you should be. Saunter in off the street for a snack, or plan a group dim sum feast, but either way you will find a wonderful bounty of fresh flavors and ingredients, served to you by Lakeside's friendly proprietors.

It was an amazing restaurant. They offered the best deal on Chinese food in all of Chinatown. Their food was awesome and they could create whatever you asked them to. I had a signature dish there because they would let me ask for what I wanted. My friends and I always ate there. They had friendly service and all the makings of a five star restaurant. too bad it had to close.

Regards to all the nice people we saw... more

I get take out from this restaurant and like to order chinese basic foods that I can't find anywhere else in chinatown. It's the simple pleasures like fried rice with salty fish that make this restaurant so worth it for me! They have quick and polite service along with fair prices - can't beat it!

Pros

+ Polite and quick service

Cons

- Not for fine dining
