Golden Sand Harbor – Chinese
Golden Sand Harbor invites diners into a vibrant, steam-filled sanctuary where the rhythmic clinking of tea cups accompanies a parade of meticulously crafted dim sum. Translucent skins give way to luxurious fillings of minced abalone and sea cucumber, while vibrant pea sprouts and briny pops of tobiko elevate traditional dumplings into delicate, edible art.
