A new favorite Chinese restaurant for my family. This place is very spacious with two floors (private rooms upstairs). We've been here a few times for both dim sum and dinners. It's a lot bigger and cleaner than most restaurants in the ID. We order the Peking Duck every time! It's juicy, tender and the skin crispy. They have a good selection of dishes and price is very reasonable. read more

Came here as a guest for a larger group event in the evening so there was a fixed menu, and I didn't personally order any items. There's a very small lot out front, but you might have to park on the street instead. The dishes that were served were pretty tasty, like the chicken with ginger scallion sauce, roast duck with steamed buns, and lobster noodles. The waiters were really good with bringing out each dish promptly. I'd be interested in coming earlier in the day to try out the dim sum. It's rare to find restrooms in the US where the stalls don't have huge gaps between (and above and below) the doors, but this one has full doors! read more

Great food and decent service the ambiance was nice too and it was packed on a weekend to no surprise. Come here to try great dim sum!

This place was great! It was super busy with locals from china town. It had a beautiful dining hall with bright lighting and pretty table cloths. Food was great! We ordered multiple dim sum. The soup dumplings were awesome and the bbq pork was sweet and savory. The only issue I had was that they charged us for 4 teas when we only ordered 2. I didn't catch it until I got to the car and reviewed the receipt. But honestly they were so crazy busy that it would be easy to make a human error like that. I still highly recommend this place if you're in China Town. read more

We had a Alaskan King Crab 4 ways + Lobster noodles + 4 BBQ items appetizer + vegetable dishes. The atmosphere is the best I've seen in Seattle. Very spacious, updated, bright, and clean. Definitely a great location for large banquets. They also have many private rooms upstairs. There's also parking with attendance which makes eating at this restaurant in Seattle China town much easier without having to hunt for parking. The first course was the 4 BBQ items appetizers. We ordered BBQ pork, roast pork, roast duck, marinated beef, & jellyfish. All the items were between good to reasonable. Jellyfish had the right crunchy texture. One area of improvement is that the BBQ items were cold. Mostly fine except for the roast pork. Skin was crunchy but the fatty layer was too cold..... 2nd course was Alaskan King Crab cooked in a salt and pepper batter. It was very tasty and my favorite dish for the meal. 3rd course was the steamed Alaskan King Crab legs. This is when things started to go downhill unfortunately. This was served very quickly after the 2nd course and the crab legs were overcooked. The meat was on the tougher side and the glass noodles underneath was on the softer side. 4th course was lobster noodles and it was average. Not bad but also not great.... This course was served shortly after the 3rd course. 5th course was Steamed Alaskan King Crab Roe with eggs and Chinese donut. It as also served shortly after the 3rd and 4th course. According to the server, this was made with half of the roe. The dish itself was way over cooked so everything was quite firm..... 6th course fried rice with 1/2 of the Alaskan King Crab roe. Dish was tasty but I would have preferred to have this dish made with all the roe and skip the 5th course. 7th and 8th course were the 2 vegetable dishes we ordered. They were both good. On the service, the servers were nice but not at the level for such an expensive meal. There was no proactive monitoring of our table. For example, there was no attempt to switch out the dishes where we had lots of shells. I had to ask for that. Refilled of hot water in our tea pots was done only when we asked. At the end of the meal, while someone started helped up packed the leftover, that person quickly disappeared when we got involved to help her..... All-in-all, this is probably one of better Chinese restaurant in Seattle Chinatown. It is probably a great choice for most meals. However, I am disappointed with how they handle a high end seafood meal in terms quality of some of the dishes and service level. read more

It is very hard to write a review for this place. Having had dim sum in many different places including Hong Kong I would like to say I have had a wide range of good and not so good dim sum. What makes this place really hard is the food has glimpses of really good dim sum. The salted egg yolk buns, salted egg yolk sesame, and the medicinal chicken feet were so good! Even the bean tips were made really really well. The service was definitely very cantonese dim sum in the sense... its not good lol. This place you walk in and you are like well this must be modeled after the Hong Kong dim sum places. But then it falls apart. The congee was just ok. The fried doughnuts felt soggy at best. The char siu was dry and lacked flavor. And these are the staples of dim sum. You can't mess these dishes up if you want to be rated highly. And so it's with a heavy heart I can only give a 3star. If you are in the area do come try it out there are hints of greatness here. read more

Typical dim sum spot with big round tables and lazy suzans. Restaurant is actually super warm by the stage, heater was blasting toward us. Food was tasty but I wasn't impressed. Shu Mai was huge but a bit dry, it needed more shrimp. On the other hand, the Har Gao and Rice Rolls were generously filled with shrimp! Staff primarily speaks Cantonese, not the best service. You order with a pen and paper menu, we had to wait around for a pen after getting seated. Some food orders got forgotten or mistaken. Meal was a bit pricey for what it was Small parking lot, ample street parking (if you can find a spot). I enjoyed my lunch, I wouldn't mind coming back but it's not my first pick read more

Fairly standard dim sum style food, the truffle dumplings and bean curd stood out but everything else is what you'd expect. Chow fun was $19 so glad the portion was huge. Wouldn't wait over an hour for the place, there's many other dimsum options in ID that are the same quality. read more

A decent dim sum spot in seattle. The actual dim sum was pretty good, especially the salted egg buns that were gooey on the inside. The har gow and other rice wrapped dumplings though had just too thick of a wrapper though. I highly recommend the pan fried chive dumplings since those had super thin wrappers that were fried to a crisp on the edges. The interior of this place is huge and it looks like they probably host events here as well. The server when I went only spoke cantonese, so bring your cantonese friends! read more

This place has the best Cantonese dim sum and traditional Cantonese seafood dishes. It usually hasa long line on weekends, so my friend and I usually pick weekdays to stop by. However, we still waited for around 15 minutes on a Thursday afternoon. All dim sum items are priced between $6.95 and $11, which is very reasonable. My favorite is their beef balls, which are very tender--hard to find at other places. The pork and preserved egg congee， fried shrimp ball， chicken feet, egg yolk buns and purple rice sesame balls--every dish we ordered was delicious, and I would highly recommend them. They also have some seasonal specials, like lobster or traditional sticky rice, which may be relatively more expensive. read more

While visiting Seattle, I wanted to try a local dim sum spot that could compare to what I grew up eating in the San Gabriel Valley. On a Sunday morning, we headed to this restaurant just uphill from the train station. We arrived only minutes after opening, and it was already packed. Thankfully, my party of four was seated fairly quickly after becoming the first group on the waitlist. This isn't a traditional cart-style dim sum restaurant, which honestly isn't too common anymore. What stood out to me was their tablet ordering system. A first for me, and surprisingly convenient. At first glance, the dim sum selection seemed a bit limited, and I didn't even see steamed gai lan on the menu. It turns out the full kitchen doesn't open until 10:30 AM, and the tablet updates with additional menu items at that time, so unfortunately I didn't get to try as much as I would've liked. Starting with the basics, the har gau and siu mai were massive and had a great bite to them. The steamed rice rolls were delicious, and so were the other dishes we ordered. Overall, no complaints at all and it definitely satisfied my dim sum craving and checked all the right boxes. The restaurant itself was modern and very well maintained, which was refreshing since establishments like these can sometimes feel dated. The staff was polite and attentive, checking on us multiple times and asking whether the food met our expectations. By the time we left, the line was already out the door, so I'd definitely recommend coming early or having someone in your group get on the waitlist ahead of time. read more

Food : 9/10 Service : 10/10 Ambiance : 10/10 Been hearing a lot about this new dim sum restaurant on social media, came here to try out their food. There was no wait time when we came in. Quick and fast service and got seated. They gave us a check off menu where you choose the food you want and mark it off on the menu. Sadly, there is no push carts but this is a nice way to serve off as well. We ordered the most common dishes that most people would order to eat and overall, all the dishes were pretty flavorful and tasty. Besides, one dish which was the Siu Mai. The flavors are all there but the main thing was the pork itself because it's very easy to fall apart which was disappointing. Overall, flavor is . Service is great. Sweet, friendly, aunties breaks the ice and talk to you. Super friendly! All the dishes are good. Flavors are on point. Siu Mai was a bit disappointment due to the pork was very easy to break apart. But I would come back for more and try their other dishes on the menu. read more

My boyfriend and I thought we'd found a new go-to spot for dim sum--the food was decent enough to give us hope. We had dined in and ordered take-out on a few occasions. On our last take-out order, we discovered after we got home that four items were missing: a hot and sour soup, vegetables, and a couple of dim sum dishes. We called the restaurant immediately, provided every bit of information they asked for, and requested a refund since we had no intention of driving all the way back to Chinatown for their error. The person on the phone admitted the mistake and assured us we'd receive a refund. A full week passed--of course, no refund. When my boyfriend called again, they suddenly claimed they had no record of our call or our refund request. The way the restaurant handled their own mistake was nothing short of egregious--and it should go without saying that we won't be returning. They can consider the missing $40 a generous parting gift. read more

It was an amazing dining experience! All the staffs were friendly and things are very neat and clean inside. I wish they also had spicy dishes too, but every food tasted really good. I would definitely come in again! read more

best dim sum that i've had in a long time. I came in with low expectations because most dim sum places have been lacking in quality but this place surpassed my expectations. before they were even open at 10am, there was already a line outside waiting. this told me the food had to be good and I was right. the rice noodle was so fresh and not too sticky, this meant that they made it in house and steamed it to the perfect time. we also ordered the fried crispy crab ball, egg tart, pineapple bun, siu mai, spare ribs and chicken feet. everything we ordered was up to par. I left so satisfied. read more

One of the fancier dim sum restaurants I've been to and looks like it'd be a great spot to host a wedding banquet or big party. You order on a tablet at the table and they bring the food out pretty quickly. The menu is extensive but everything has photos and you can add on more things throughout the meal. Also if you go with a large group, people can scan the QR code with their phone and add items to the same tab easily. It was a very smooth ordering process but definitely double check to make sure people aren't accidentally ordering multiples of the same dish. Everything was hot and fresh and all the fried items were nice and crispy. The youtiao presentation was unlike anything I've seen before and completely unnecessary but memorable for sure. They charge $2 per person for tea but free refills. This is probably the best dimsum restaurant I've tried in Seattle. read more

Very good Dim Sum, cooked to order, comes out piping hot. Lots of variety of Dim Sum dishes. Nice environment for Dim Sum in International District. Good Chinese BBQ next door, reasonably priced. Good fast service. read more

This place is decent for dim sum. Nice interior and the staff are attentive. We got to the restaurant before 11am on a Sunday and beat the rush. They sat us real quick and you order as soon as you sit down and the items come out real fast. You order off a tablet and you send the order to the kitchen when ready. They bring a receipt of all the items you ordered and they check the items off as they come. The only bad thing is the menu is in Chinese so like me, you may order something you didn't want. I thought the picture was of tendon but it was chicken feet. Luckily the chicken feet weren't bad. I prefer the cart style dim sum experience better. The older dim sum restaurants have better dim sum selection, but go to know this place is an option. read more

Roast duck was delicious. But take out service sucks. The order taker was texting while I was trying to talk to her. Even when she was cashing me out, she was on her cellphone the whole time. I let her $0 tip. Normally, I'll leave 5-10% even for takeout. Management needs to ban use of personal cell when serving customers. Very unprofessional. read more

Went on a Saturday afternoon and was seated right away. It was pretty busy but no other customers waiting. The place looks fancy compared to other restaurants in Chinatown. My group got dimsum and several other dishes. Dimsum was alright. Crispy roasted pork skin was crunchy. Meat itself was not the best I've had, but it is tasty. Quite pricey for the portion. The salted egg yolk lava bun was probably the best item I tried. read more

This place was terribly hard to get into on its second opening day, so I came with a party of 3 to eat at a Tuesday for lunch sometime after that day. Very fancy inside with a huge TV screen at the front and a bunch of nice lighting and lit-up photo frames around. This is one of many places that do dim sum without the carts, and you instead put down what you want and how many on a piece of paper. We got shu mai, tripe, beancurd skin, pan-fried pork buns, shrimp stuffed eggplant, fried dough rice rolls, salted egg yolk rice rolls and HK egg tarts. Most things were just all right, though I liked how the egg tarts had a flaky crust and were appropriately sweet. The pan-fried pork bun were a plus in that the inside tasted very fresh and the filling didn't make the inside too soggy. The fried dough rice rolls (and at the same time the salted egg yolk rice rolls) were off in that their noodle wrappings came apart way too easily when picking them up. Service was still really fast here regardless. Not sure if I'd come back here again for dim sum, though. There are other places in Chinatown like Honey Court and Jade Garden that I'd prefer over here in terms of quality and even price. read more

On our first visit on grand opening week, we arrived at 10 am opening and were fortunate enough to get one of the last large tables for 10 people. After looking over the menu and indicating our choices, we handed our order to one of the servers. We got our two roast meats immediately, but it wasn't until 40 minutes later or more until the rest of our order came out. One of the servers checked on our order and found a glitch in their system and our order did not go through the first time. Let me just say regarding ordering, I prefer to order choice items to sample when I'm trying a new place for the first time. Other family members got a hold of the menu first, so it was out of my control. Suffice it to say, a sh-ton of dim sum was ordered and it came out rapid fire! We had to consolidate a lot of our dim sum items to make room, hence the scattered photos. Of the items we ordered, the standouts were the pan fried noodle dish, salty egg yolk bun and the BBQ pork pastry. The Hom Sui Gok aka football was quite doughy. We had to wait until 11 am to order any items from the kitchen, including noodle and vegetable dishes. Harbor City and Hong Kong Bistro are my dim sum favorites in CID. I will wait awhile to try Diamond Bay again. read more

Overall a good experience! I recommend coming here first thing when it opens to beat the crowd. It definitely gets full an hour in. Overall the dishes were good! The shrimp eggplant was a bit greasier than I would like, but the rice roll shrimp and turnip cake were solid! They also refilled our tea often and without us asking - very attentive! Parking is always tough here, and street parking is almost always paid. You definitely can find something eventually though, but I wouldn't show up expecting to find a spot easily. They have a very small parking lot. read more

New dim sum location opened; sadly missed the mark. Beautifully decorated and spacious location to eat to start. Restaurant gives off a China dim sum location vibe. Family decided to give it a shot since we heard from friends that it was decent. The service was 100% good. All waitress and hostess speak English and Chinese really well. It was easy to ask for things and get it right away. The food itself though I wouldn't bother. Shu Mai and ha gaw being an all time popular dish for all dim sum locations; this restaurant does it wrong right off the bay. Shrimp has a frozen taste and overall not good. Shumai decent but not the best as well. The pricing is rather on the higher end as well from $6+ per dish. Food overall over mid. Kids love pork shao long baos but refused to eat it from here. He only ate the skin and none of the meat. Out of a $160 bill total at the end the best dish was only two things. The ube salted egg; different and uniquely made! The turnip cake was probably the best one as well. read more

I took my mom here on the week day to try out their dim sum and Peking duck . Overall, I think the dim sum was okay and the price for the dim sum is reasonable . However, they asked if we wanted hot tea and we said we wanted two sodas instead but they still brought out hot tea and charge us 2 dollar per person for it . When I told the waiter that we didn't want hot tea ... his response was "oh everybody has to get hot tea and the charge is there whether you drink it or not " -_- We also ordered the Peking duck ($59) to go and when I got home I was really disappointed. For 59 dollars I expect it to be the whole duck but it did not look like a whole duck at all . It came with 9 buns, sauce, cucumbers and green onions . The service was okay . Seems like most of the waiters there only speak Chinese because I had to tell them multiple time that I did not understand Chinese and they would have to go get another person to translate. read more

We used to go this place when it was House of Hong. Curious, so we got to check it out and did not dissappoint!!! Parking: limited parking lot, but plenty street parking free. Restroom: men and women restrooms Service: very friendly. But still need to get their attention for Service. We ordered: Chicken feet: $6.85 fall off the bones, perfect Har gow: $6.85 so good Siu mai: $6.85 fat siu mai, great flavour Pea leaves/garlic bean sprout: $18 fresh veggies Fried shrimp ball: $6.85 my fav. Kinda oily, but crispy , fresh from deep fryer Pork & preserved egg congee: $12. Squab: $26.50 comes in 1 squab cut into 4, very good, but expensive Char siu rice roll: $6 85 small but nice taste New setup, has big screen TV. Mostly big 8-10 ppl round tables, and some 4 ppl round small table too. They also have regular dishes too like noddle, rice, bbq pork etc. Next door they sell the bbq pork etc over rice, which we will try next time. This is better than Sun Sui Wah and Top Gun Definitely will come back. read more

THE BIG: Located in the international district of Seattle. This place is gigantic with tons of seating and the typical over the top decor that sets apart dim sum places. Street parking is available with a tiny private lot to the right side of the building THE BLACK AND WHITE: Lots of negative reviews but to be honest, it's pretty good. There's no carts that zoom around, everything is ordered a la carte. Took my mom and dad here who are OG cantonese and they criticize everything. They actually liked the food here if that counts for anything. We got the normal hitters like chicken feet, sesame balls, har gow, cheong fun, spare ribs and of course the beef chow fun. My parents always order beef chow fun at every dim sum place to judge whether the cooks are skilled. It shouldn't be a gravy but dry fried aka wok hei that is emblematic of cantonese style cooking. AND they liked it. It is a big place and some of the waiters were struggling to get orders down, but I guess that's the ramp up of staff. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall the damage done was around $90 for all the dim sum and beef chow fun. Great place to try some authentic cantonese style dim sum. read more
