Crowds generally start coming in by about 11:00 AM at Dong Yi Feng, and the earlier you arrive, the better your chances of avoiding a line, according to Time Out New York. The restaurant opens early, around 8 AM, for dim sum cart service.
Time Out describes the room as more relaxed than typical dim sum halls, noting it caters to diners who can't handle hard-nosed steamer hustling and that cart pushers willingly linger tableside, suggesting a slower-paced service model even once the room fills.
