Watch out, Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills: Another glossy temple to haute Chinese cuisine is making a play for L.A.'s spendy and trendy set. Taking up residence in the former Dolce space on a low-key stretch of Melrose, the latest outpost of the Philippe empire doesn't look like much from the outside--a white box with a sliver of a window looking onto the street--but inside it becomes abundantly clear that this is the spot for a little dim sum and then some.

The service was prompt and courteous. However, all of the dishes were not fresh. It seemed like leftover food that was microwaved. We asked our server about the extremely low quality of the food and she smiled and shrugged her shoulders. About a half hour after leaving the restaurant, I started feeling an upset stomach. I felt sick all night . I would never go there again.

Called around 3 to see about getting a reservation that night at 7:30, the hostess acted like she was going to fit me in at 7:15, got there and the place was empty. Hummm why did I need to come earlier then? Anyway ordered some beers, wanted the lobster rolls, which they did not have, so got the shrimp rolls...nothing special, got the filet with broccoli, again nothing special....also got the drunken sea bass....was ok but not for $30 for a half order. this place is severely overpriced and not that good....and who decorated the place, tacky
