It's funny because I have lived within a 1 mile radius of both locations in the Chicagoland area... this is easily my go-to for dim sum. The food can't be beat, and it's so so good. GET THE PEAPOD TIPS!! read more

The place is big and clean but the seating is a bit awkward. The staff is nice. I wanted dim sum and they had a big menu for it. I didn't understand why they had different sizes with different pricing for each size until the items came out! Like the sui mai, pan fired potstickers were medium size and the rest other than the sesame balls were large. I don't think I have ever had any of the items as big or as stuffed as these were. Everything tasted great! Every item was flavorful. We barely had to use the sauces other than to enhance the flavors of the items. Even the jasmine tea was fragrant and tasted the way it smelled. Next time I'm in Chicago I will. Be stopping here again forget china town this is the place to go. read more

The fried taro dumpling is a must get here! Hidden gem in the Lincoln park neighbourhood :) Only taking a star off because of a slightly disappointing salted egg yolk custard bun...a little too sweet and probably not made in house :( BBQ pork buns were solid though! and if you're feeling adventurous, give the honeycomb tripe a go - really good! read more

D Cuisine is a solid spot for dim sum if you're craving some bite-sized goodness without the trek all the way to Chinatown. I've been looking for a good dim sum spot not in Chinatown and this place definitely hits the mark. The dim sum selection is extensive...from steamed dumplings to crispy spring rolls, they've got all the classics and then some. I highly recommend the BBQ pork turnover, which was flaky and filled with just the right amount of sweetness and savory flavor. It's a puff pastry with bbq pork and this was my favorite out of all the dim sum dishes ordered. Their lunch special is a solid price (for today's standards). There's a specific section on the menu that list the dishes included with the lunch special and includes rice (except for noodle dishes), appetizer, and drink. The service was friendly and efficient. I'll definitely be coming back, especially since it's so much closer than heading all the way to Chinatown. If you're in the area, this is a good new dim sum spot to check out! read more

We came for dim sum but was pleasantly surprised to find they do a lunch special. We ordered: - Black Bean Sauce & Pepper Chicken - Congee w. Pork & Preserved Egg - Steamed Spare Ribs - Chiu Chow Dumplings - Crabmeat Wrap w. Seaweed The dim sum was good and I'm usually not a fan of congee, but this was pretty good. Definitely recommend coming in for lunch. read more

Overall 5 star experience: the service was a little off, but the food more than made up for it. I agree with others that this place is underrated/a hidden gem! I went on New Years Day for dinner with my boyfriend, we had a bit of dim sum and also ordered chicken entrees (we wanted leftovers and knew the portion sizes would be perfect for that). Dim sum of potstickers/gyoza and potato bacon rolls were amazing - the crab rolls weren't our favorite. But let me rave about the black pepper chicken with asparagus... it might be the best Chinese dish I've had in my life. My boyfriend also is a General Tsos connoisseur and he said this was some of the best he's tried. read more

Decided to try this place out after hearing good things about their dim sum. Unfortunately, none of the dishes really stood out to me--though if I had to pick a favorite, it would be the steamed BBQ pork bun. It had a good amount of meat and was moist. We ordered a variety of items including dumplings, curry short ribs, chicken feet, and beef tripe. The service, however, was very slow. Despite the restaurant not being busy at the time, our server never checked on us--not even to take our order or bring the check. The pricing was fair, but given the overall experience, I think I'll stick to Chinatown for dim sum. read more

Good all around. Nice to have a neighborhood dim sum place. Added a photo of the hot & spicy chicken because there wasn't a photo I could see, and the menu had no description. It was basically sautéed chicken (no breading) with lots of garlic and onions. Wasn't spicy hot, more like spices of Five spice? We also like the orange chicken (wasn't too sweet) and the pan fried noodles. read more

Absolutely amazing dim sum spot in Lincoln park, reasonable prices, with very fast and friendly service. We got the salt and pepper shrimp (shell on) which was outstanding. The General Tsao was better than any other in the area. A common dish done very well. The dim som amazing. The egg custard buns were great for finishing out the meal! Hot and sweet! Nice clean modern finishes, I will be coming back for these shrimps read more

Great service. Easy to reserve and plenty of seating types for different group sizes. Great for large parties too. Food comes piping hot. They also have a rotating seasonal menu. Flavors are good and nothing is too salty or not salty enough. I really liked the noodle dishes we ordered. There were a couple dishes that I didn't expect to come out deep fried since the name was unclear if it was deep fried or stir fried. The West Lake Beef soup was a huge portion. Some people felt it had too much black pepper but I enjoyed it. A great place to come for large groups that want to share many dishes. read more

Food: Doesn't showcase any particular region's accent yet it can be homey enough for a quick dinner or takeout. Not too oily which is always appreciated in a Chinese restaurant. Ordered some dim sum, soup, fried rice, sautéed veggie and sautéed beef. My friend said the fried rice lacked flavor but it was ok for me, although not too many scallop. The soup was the best part for me. Sautéed veggies are expensive, more than meat Service: good and attentive! Loved the tea. Ambience: kind of like small mom and pop shop. read more

For I am not worthy enough to eat here. This dim sum place actually tops any other dim sum place that I have been to before. I went into this place with no expectations, especially no expectations for the dim sum, as it seems more like a Chinese take out place but boy oh boy..... The softest ribs I have ever eaten. I cannot say more for you must discover for yourself. Go along my friend and enjoy... read more

Dim sum here was really solid. The shrimp and chive dumplings had a ton of flavor, and the steamed buns were soft and filled with sweet BBQ pork. I appreciated how nothing tasted overly greasy. We ordered a bunch of small plates and everything came out pretty quickly. The restaurant had a clean and casual feel. Our server was polite and made sure our tea was always refilled. A good spot for a relaxed dim sum meal. read more

We were looking for an authentic, casual and non spicy Chinese restaurant in Lincoln Park and this seemed to be the only one because it serves dim sums. So we went. It overall did not disappoint us! Restaurant was clean and bright and felt homey. Service was excellent during our visit. The dim sum menu is small but covers the classic ones. The time to get the dim sums on the table was slow but that's because the dim sums were made to order according to the menu. Not the best dim sums that I've had, but I am from Guangdong where dim sums are from haha. The quality is definitely decent and serves the craving. read more

This is an updated review - visited this restaurant again in summer 2023 and was very disappointed. The menu was changed - some of my favorites were gone, such as roast pigeon, and osmanthus ribs. Unfortunately all the dishes were not good - salty, and too starchy. It seems that the restaurant has changed chefs. Service and environment were still really nice, but i was really disappointed by the food since it used to be one of my favorites in Chicago. read more

My wife, teenage son (15 years), and I enjoyed a casual dim sum dinner in July 2023. D Cuisine has a nice location on Clark Street in Lincoln Park. We were looking for an informal dinner that would be quick. Lots of pluses here. First, the service is prompt and attentive (almost too rushed). Second, the shrimp dim sum was excellent along with the steamed buns and Chinese greens with garlic. I think the dim sum dumplings are the way to go here. Third, it has a relaxed atmosphere with TVs, so it's great for kids. We would definitely go back to D Cuisine for another meal in Chicago! read more

Came here looking for an alternative to Sun Wah. Unfortunately don't find it. Had the Wu goh, and cha su Bao, steamed ribs, and crab wrapped with seaweed for dime sum. Everything was barely warm so a big write down for that. the got was decent but cold. The bao was surprisingly good not a lot of fat that you find in some. (Since I lived in the Bay Area for 35 years, these don't come close to the ones there.) The ribs were barely edible. Almost all bones and fat and gristle. A total waste of money. The crab roll was a meh. I had to order the Beef chow fun. It was okay. No where near the Sun Wah version. I'm used to lots of gravy and chewy noodles. Even more soy sauce didn't help. I won't return to this place. I had high hopes. read more

One of the best Chinese food restaurants I've have been in the country. Something about this place puts you in a very pleasant mood. It's a common theme for good authentic Chinese restaurants to have good food but looks rundown or unsanitary/old. However the interior here is clean and modern. The lighting immediately welcomes you along with the comfortably spaced seating. They start you with complimentary warm tea. We ordered a good mix of dim sum (served all day) and main dishes. 1. Pan fried taro cake 2. Steamed ribs 3. Causeway bay style squid 4: Mushroom/mustard green/tofu casserole 5. Custard Bun Everything was so delicious!! They have the best steamed ribs dim sum dish I've ever had... their secret is they put taro with their steamed ribs, giving it a sweet and savory soup base. The pan fried taro is amazing - it is made with minced protein (I think it was pork but can't remember). Another dish that blew my mind was the causeway bay style squid. It was fried to perfection - airy yet crispy... topped with minced garlic and peppers. We can easily eat one more plates of this, so addicting. The casserole pot was also wonderful and a great way to eat your vegetables. We ended our meal with the custard buns as the desserts. I prefer custard buns that have creamy fillings that drips. The custard bun here is just average but still good. This meal was so memorable. We would definitely drive out of our way to eat here again next time we're in Chicago!! read more

Serves a pot of complimentary tea which is awesome. Came for the lunch special but it didn't apply during a holiday FYI. I would definitely recommend sharing your food allergy. FYI - if you're allergic to shrimp: there are mini shrimp in the egg rolls and pan fried corn cakes. What we ordered: Bbq pork turnover was good (3 of them) Pan fried corn cakes were good (3) Egg roll was good (2) Sweet and sour chicken was ok (not a lot of pieces of chicken, a lot of tough pieces or breading) Hot and spicy chicken was good not too spicy Overall ok food, good service! I think we might have needed more experience on what to order next time and more dim sum vs entrees. read more

Crucial neighborhood dim sum place, a staple of this area. As good as Chinatown or better.

Decent Chinese food, excellent Crab Rangoon. Will order from here again if need a quick and decently priced meal

Casual Asian food is on the menu with limited choices. D Cuisine has a small selection of dim sum and other appetizers to choose from. It has pretty decent prices. A few will find it too limited. There's not a lot for vegetarians but there's a few without any meat. Get here at lunch and try something from the limited choices. It was lunch when we came in. There wasn't anyone else in here and it was extremely quiet. It only had a pretty small menu with only a few things to choose from. The only thing vegetarian was the Stuffed Bean Curd Skin. It's only about $3.50 for a few. These were stuffed with baby corn, bean sprouts, carrots, and mushrooms. On the outside, the bean curd skin was kind of tough but it has a nice crispness. While it wasn't much, it still was a nice little meal at lunch or for whenever you aren't hungry. For now they're only serving limited dim sum options so it's good if you're not that hungry. It would be good to come back when they have more items. That could be who even knows. read more

This is a great neighborhood Dim Sum place, with a medium sized dim sum menu plus a full assortment of tradition American Chinese restaurant dishes for the less adventurous. Meals come with a delicious pot of jasmine black tea, and lunch specials are very reasonably priced. We sampled a variety of Dim Sum.

I came here during lunch. There's was about 4 tables being occupied so it wasn't too bad. Plenty of tables available and got seated right away. Their staff was very welcoming and got my order in right away. Their have a pretty decent menu. Especially their dim sum. But I opted for their lunch special this time around and plan on ordering from their Dim Sum menu on my next visit. I ordered their Orange Chicken lunch special. It was $10 and came with white rice, either an egg roll or Crab Rangoon. I usually order egg rolls at other Chinese restaurants so I thought about changing it up a bit by ordering a crab rangoon this time. You get a lot of food for $10. The orange chicken was crispy on the outside and had plenty of sauce. The sauce was sweet and It had just a tiny bit of heat for flavor but nothing too crazy. I know orange chicken is not really authentic Chinese, but I still like to order this. I kind of like to judge a restaurant but how they make their orange chicken. There are some places out there that seem to get it wrong, not here though. I'll definitely be back to check out that Dim Sum menu. read more

Very disappointing restaurant. Was craving dim sum for couple days and finally decided to grab some dim sum. I had high expectations for this restaurant since the reviews were so great. I am not mad about the service cause the poor guy was working by himself. We understood his struggle. The food here was not great. The food was lacking in flavor and taste straight up oil in certain dishes. We couldn't continue eating cause we were just feeling sick from it. Really wished I liked this spot but it's a hell no for it. Never again. Wasted $80 on food we did not enjoy. read more
