    We came here for dinner at the suggestion of our friends who are vegan, and we loved it! The place is pretty spacious and we got a table right away on a Wednesday night. We ordered for the table and from what I recall, we got the vegan sesame chicken, the spicy vegan crispy beef, the spicy veggie mongolian beef, the chow mein, and something else I completely forgot. The food was amazing! My favorite for sure was the sesame chicken and the crispy beef. The flavors were so good and for being a non-vegan, everything was so tasty. There are so many more things I want to try now based on how good this whole meal was! The service was very friendly as well. We were checked on and she was very nice! I absolutely would love to come back and try some of their other dishes. Give this place a try!

    All my non-vegan (pre-vegan) friends were astounded at how fantastic the food was! I'm so thankful they found this place for all of us to go to, even though I am the lone vegan in the group. I ordered the Tamarind Curry, which is something I've never seen on a menu before, so I just had to give it a try. It certainly had the tamarind flavor that I love when I have papaya salad, but I didn't taste much curry. That's OK in my book, though, because it was an adventure in dining and that's what I was going for. Super service, fast and friendly, attentive. Zero complaints and 100% praise for an all-vegan Asian dining extravaganza!

    We normally go to non-veg dim sum but we are hanging out with a Veg eater. We decided to come here so they can have the freedom of ordering from the full menu. When I opened the menu I was confused because there was all these typical Chinese meat dishes. The waiter confirmed they are all vegan equivalent of their non-veg dishes. All made with tofu or bean paste in lieu of the meats. As an omnivore, I was pleasantly surprised with the closeness to the meat equivalents. They dishes were just as tasty and the texture was similar to traditional dim sum and Chinese dishes. We will definitely come back. One thing to note is that the prices are higher than the typical dim sum but still worth it due to the full flavor.

    All the sushi. Wontons and beef/broccoli

    I've already reviewed this place, but it's so good I gotta do another. I tried to go ordering this time and it was a little weird picking up, but the food was JUST as good!! For two people I got generals chicken and crispy beef, a mushroom roll thing and 3 sushi rolls. The 3 mushroom rolls were not great, kinda soggy and not a lot going on. But everything is a 10/10, I plan to try everything on this menu slowly and discover all the hidden gems because I'm always amazed when I eat here. Definitely plan on almost 100$ if you are hungry though

    Good vegan food with plenty of options to choose from. Fast delivery. Portion sizes are decent but not very big. Next time I would ask them to reduce the sweet sauce. Entrees came with a sumptuous side of rice ( white or brown), which is kind of nice. Everything was well made and arrived on time. Vegan egg tart was super smooth and tasted awesome. All vegan menu.

    Chef Kenny's restaurant is an amazing restaurant that is all Vegan. We went to celebrate the birthday of a person who is vegetarian. They were ecstatic that they could order anything on the menu, because usually their options are very limited at other restaurants. We ordered crispy beef, sweet and sour pork, sushi a mixed noodle dish, everything was amazing and completely Vegan. I would recommend this place even if you are not vegetarian because the flavors of all the dishes are amazing.

    **Chef Kenny's Vegan Dim Sum: A Bold Exploration of Plant-Based Chinese Cuisine** Chef Kenny's Vegan Dim Sum presents a thoughtful and imaginative reinterpretation of traditional Chinese dim sum. It perfectly caters to those who follow a plant-based diet while simultaneously captivating the palates of diners like myself, who typically enjoy meat-centric dishes. As I set out on this culinary adventure, I approached it skeptically, wondering how well classic flavors could be recreated without animal products. However, the experience was both enlightening and delicious, showcasing the rich tapestry of vegan cuisine while honoring its roots in Chinese gastronomy. My dining experience commenced with a delightful assortment that included Vegan Siu Mai, Bean Curd Rolls, and Hargow, each prepared with remarkable attention to detail and an evident dedication to the craft. The Vegan Siu Mai featured delicate, handcrafted wrappers enclosing a savory filling. This filling, made from a thoughtfully blended mix of plant-based ingredients, artfully mimicked the umami richness typically found in its traditional pork counterpart, creating a satisfying and deep dish. Next, the Bean Curd Rolls offered a delightful textural contrast. Each roll was perfectly crispy on the outside, delivering a satisfying crunch that gave way to a tender and flavorful interior, showcasing the craftsmanship involved in creating vegan versions of beloved appetizers. The Hargow was particularly impressive, boasting a translucent skin that practically shimmered on the plate. The subtle yet profoundly satisfying filling provided an authentic taste that highlighted the skill required in replicating such a cherished classic dish. To add a bit of variety to my meal, I ventured outside the plant-based menu with an order of non-vegan lettuce wraps. While these wraps diverged from the overall theme, they pleasantly added a fresh, crisp counterpoint to my meal, reminding me of the versatility and adaptability inherent in Chinese cuisine. The crisp lettuce provided a refreshing crunch and beautifully complemented the rich flavors of the other dishes. During my visit, Chef Kenny's apparent mastery in expertly replicating the complex umami flavors and diverse textures typically associated with traditional dim sum resonated with me. The plant-based substitutes utilized throughout the menu, such as Beyond Meat, were handled with remarkable expertise, allowing for dishes that simultaneously felt familiar and innovative. Though I cannot categorize myself as a strict vegan convert, I left with a newfound appreciation for the creativity and dedication Chef Kenny and his culinary team pour into every plate. For those adhering to a vegan lifestyle, this restaurant may serve as a beacon of gastronomic delight, firmly establishing that plant-based cuisine can honor time-honored traditions and present exciting, unique culinary experiences. Meanwhile, for non-vegans, it offers an excellent opportunity to step outside their familiar gastronomic boundaries and explore the endless possibilities of vegan cooking. Whether you are a curious diner or a devoted vegan, Chef Kenny's Vegan Dim Sum deserves a spot on your culinary itinerary. It is an experience that promises to surprise, satisfy, and inspire.

    I was in Las Vegas for my special day weekend. I read amazing reviews about Chef Kenny's Vegan Dim Sum. I thought... why not try something different that I've never tried before... vegan dim sum! Yeah, why not! I was so very excited to go on my vegan dim sum adventure. Hey, I am always good in my own company. We all should really. Anyway, I got here during dinner time on a Friday night 10/24/2025. Free parking is behind the restaurant. They could use a bit more lighting at the parking lot IMHO. Upon entry, there was no one at the check-in booth. I waited until a lady staff acknowledged my presence. They weren't super busy. I was seated at a table for 4 even though it was just moi. It was perfect because I knew I was going to order several items. I need space for picture-taking. Yes, indeed! Vegan dim sum items were on one page. The rest of the menu had other vegan dishes that were not dim sum. I wondered if this restaurant started with vegan dim sum, hence, the biz name and expanded to other dishes later on. Anyway, I came here for vegan dim sum so that's what I mostly ordered. I was curious about the vegan sushi roll so I also got one to try. I got a total of 7 items. Each item was $8 IMHO... price is a bit on the higher end. Total bill was $70 with tax + tip. Happy Birthday to moi! LOL Here's my take on my dining experience... Atmosphere was cozy. Nice decor. Inside is quite spacious actually. Two sections of the restaurant. Staff was friendly and attentive. Food came out fairly quickly. Unfortunately, I was slightly disappointed with a few dim sum items. They weren't bad, but they weren't WOW either. Only 3 out of the 7 stood out as outstanding. The rest were at or below par unfortunately. 1. Mixed Mushroom Dumpling (#2 choice, super flavorful!) 2. Mushroom Tofu Wrap Roll (#3 choice, very tasty!) 3. Turnip Cake (#1 choice, amazingly delicious!) 4. Vegan Egg Custard Tart (decent, but would have preferred it to be a tad sweeter) 5. Vegan Shrimp Dumpling (this was bland, I was so bummed because it is my favorite dim sum when non-vegan) 6. Vegan Spicy Tuna Roll (slightly sweet, not spicy at all) 7. Vegan Spinach Dumpling (I thought I would like this because I love spinach, but it was tasteless) I can now say I have tried vegan dim sum. I would still come back for my top 3 items because they were that good. All in all, it was a fun and interesting vegan dim sum adventure. Glad I made it happen!

    Wonton soup - they don't skimp on the plant based wontons. More than enough for 3 people to share.
    Ron R.

    So glad we came here. I'm a vegetarian of 30+ years, but if there are vegan options, I choose vegan. Chef Kenny's is 100% vegan. Just look at the photos. Well worth the Uber ride. When do you get a chance to eat salt and pepper fish as a vegetarian or a steak roll. The vegan shrimp dumplings were okay - wouldn't order those again (little too one texture for me - mushy), but the fact they have'em on the menu is amazing. Loved it here overall and while others are watching David Copperfield make planes disappear, I'll make my own magic here at this magical place!

    Fried chicken
    Laura G.

    WOW. Seriously impressive. I'm not vegan or vegetarian -- not even close -- and I'd still come back here for the food alone. The flavors are bold, and the "meat" textures are shockingly spot on. We shared the "pork" dumplings, BBQ pork buns, crispy beef, Beyond beef fried rice, and fried "chicken." Every single dish was legit delicious. Forget the vegan label -- this is just great food, period. Chef Kenny stopped by each table, which was a nice touch. I'm already planning my next visit.

    Salt and pepper tofu
    Iris D.

    Service and food were excellent! I was pleasantly surprised at how good their vegan dishes were. We ordered their crispy beef, salt and pepper tofu, chicken veggie stir fry, hot and sour soup, and brown rice This is a solid spot in Chinatown. If you're seeking 100% vegan Chinese cuisine, this is the place to go. Although I think they could improve cleanliness on the walls, especially around the banquet tables.

    It has been a while since my last visit. I happy to report the food is still soooo good! Just like I remembered. I ordered takeout this time and by the time I got home the food was still piping hot. Perfect! Service was good. My food was ready when I walked in. Ambiance - it did appear that they were only utilizing half of the space this time. However, there were a good amount of patrons dining in. I'm happy Chef Kenny's is still around and I can't wait to get my favorites again soon!

    Woah this place rocks!!!!! It deserves the great business it gets. The service is good, the interior is cozy, the menu is expansive, everything is plant-maxed?!?!?! And that fact does not detract from its taste. On a scale from Ezekiel 4:9 approved to made in a lab, it is def Ezekiel 4:9 approved. 5 fake fish fillets out of 5.

Not sure if it was just an off day, but it's the only thing that took away from an otherwise enjoyable experience.

Parking was super easy that Thursday night since they have their own lot. Plenty of seating available in that spacious dining area. We had to occupy two large tables but that wasn't a problem. The interior looked liked it needed a refurbishment. Clean? Yes. Dated? Also an affirmative. Found out that aside from the traditional Chinese food ie fried rice and chow mein, they also served dim sum in heated pushcarts. I don't recall us ordering anything from the main menu as we got occupied by the barrage of carts that were wheeled to us. Well, maybe the calamari. I remembered ordering a hot sake in which the carafe was oddly served inside a stainless pot of hot water. We ordered a bunch of small dumpling plates like the shu mai and har gow. We even got chicken feet, shrimp balls with steamed & baked buns. What was surprisingly tasty for me was the Sticky Rice in Lotus Leaf. Not my first having it but I haven't had one this good for more than 20 years. No problems getting service though some of the servers felt a little overbearing. Their bussing system was A+.

Dinner for 5 was $250 with tip, not bad but probably would have been $150 or less at Xiao Long Dumplings or Shanghai Taste. We elected to go to Chinatown for Ah Boong for dessert rather than each have one little chocolate filled bao (and to fill us the rest of the way up).

    Popped in here after making a u-turn. Realized it's been on my to-try list…read more Got the shrimp rice noodle, sticky rice in lotus leaf and the baked BBQ buns. The shrimp rice noodle dish was 3.5/5. Nothing wrong, just something was "off." Not sure what, but it wasn't right. The same with the sticky rice in lotus leaf. It was alright, just had a flavor I wasn't used to. 3.5/5. The baked BBQ buns were fine - 4/5. The bathroom was clean. The fan they have in front of the desk was dirty. Filthy dirty. And it was blowing into the area people were dining in. Glad I got mine to go. Another annoying thing - two people walked up to me speaking in Chinese (I'm not Chinese). I told them both I'm not Chinese. Then when the food was ready, the lady handed the bag to me, talking in Chinese. I said "thank you" and walked away. I know dim sum is Chinese, but wish they wouldn't assume only Chinese people eat it. Not sure if I'll return. Still in search of a decent dim sum place.

    Finding the Real Deal: Dim Sumlicious is the Authentic Yum Cha Las Vegas Has Been Missing…read moreLas Vegas has no shortage of Chinese restaurants, but anyone who's grown up going to yum cha knows the difference between dim sum done right and dim sum done for tourists. I've been on a quiet, slightly obsessive hunt across this city for the genuine article -- the kind of Sunday morning experience that transports you straight to a bustling Hong Kong tea house. And friends, I found it. It's called Dim Sumlicious, and the name does not lie. The moment the first bamboo basket hit our table, I knew this was different. Dim Sumlicious has a chef with over 30 years of experience honing his craft in Hong Kong, and it shows in every single bite. This isn't the frozen-and-steamed shortcut situation you'll find at so many spots around town. These are handmade, skillfully executed classics that carry the weight of real tradition behind them. The har gow wrappers had that perfect translucent delicacy -- thin enough to see through, sturdy enough to hold. The siu mai were plump and properly seasoned. The char siu bao, both baked and steamed, hit every note I was hoping for. Cart after cart brought something worth ordering, and nothing disappointed. But beyond the food, what struck me about Dim Sumlicious was the atmosphere of care. The service was warm, attentive, and genuinely hospitable -- a rarity in a city where restaurants can feel like they're processing customers on a conveyor belt. If you're a dim sum devotee who's been settling for "pretty good," your search is over. Dim Sumlicious is the real deal -- no asterisks, no caveats. Make a reservation, bring the whole family, and go hungry. Las Vegas finally has its yum cha moment. Don't sleep on it.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
