I was really excited to try this place because I love dim sum and the reviews were good.... Service was slow, despite only four tables of people in the whole place. Steamed pork buns were ok. 'Supreme' noodles were ok, but over priced. The filling of the honeycomb taro dumpling tasted like the smell of wet dog food and looked like it too. The cilantro dumpling filling did not look cooked so we didn't even try it. Soup dumplings were ok. They also set someone else's order of tripe on our table while giving us our food and it did not help my appetite. read more

In fact there wasn't much flavor at all. The hot and sour soup had the orange sweet and sour sauce for some reason?? It was pretty mid.

4.5 stars, rounding up because, honestly, you ain't gonna find many other restaurants like this in Memphis. Also, we've eaten at their voluminous restaurant and also had their delivery. Eating at the restaurant is about twice as good as delivery. With delivery you're gonna get the old food that no one wanted... Eating in it's always fresh. So you've been warned... I appreciate their roast duck and pork. Like I said, getting these Cantonese dishes is difficult in Memphis. They also make some decent dumplings. Pretty good turnip cake. Overall, their dim sum is about as good as I've had in NYC. That's just a minor compliment because NYC dim sum pales in comparison to dim sum in Canada or on the West Coast... Anywho, final warning- don't order non-Cantonese dishes from here. Otherwise, check them out... The DMV is right next door, so you can take your frustrations with you and eat them away... read more

This is a REAL Dimsum place which is impossible to find in Tennessee (and most likely Arkansas). I felt I was in LA, San Francisco or New York. GREAT Dimsum. Order from menu or the famous carts (available at different times). A bit challenging to navigate as service and be quirky (how to order and pay) , but just ask one of the staff. Lots of FRESH seafood (literally on display). Highly recommend for Dimsum lovers and those looking to try it (who does not like Dimsum?). read more

For Memphis, this is a great and very solid dim sum place!! They actually come around with the carts! The restaurant is huge, and it can get pretty busy on the weekends. They have such an extensive menu, you will not go hungry and you'll want to come back and try other dishes. Some of the dim sum dumplings are just ok, but they are a good portion and size. Their vegetable dishes are great, especially the sauteed snow pea tips. Contrary to some reviews below, I thought the shrimp har gow wasn't that great, but the sesame balls I really liked!! Hot off the cart, chewy, and good red bean flavor. Can't wait to come back and eat more! The staff works hard, so service is not an issue. read more

Went for a celebration and we were in a private room. There was karaoke and they came to help turn on the equipment when requested. The food was good and flavorful. We had a variety of dishes including lobster, fried rice, service was timely and accommodating. If you live there and go often you should get the membership. I believe it's 10% off each time.

Finally found a good dim sum place in Memphis! My family visited for Saturday lunch and were seated immediately at a round table. We preferred the table over a booth because we figured the food carts would circulate around tables more. As soon as we were seated, the dumpling cart came by, so we grabbed a few dishes to start - shrimp dumplings, steamed pork buns, and chicken feet. We then ordered our drinks, including jasmine tea, and a bowl of rice. LOOOVE the pork buns - they're a MUST have item for me at dim sum. Chicken feet were pretty good, too - I find them a lil hard to eat, but I love the crunchy small bones/cartilage pieces. Then came other carts, so we grabbed some Chinese broccoli as a veggie dish and pork belly. The pork belly was so juicy! Then, we saw someone walking around with a tray of meats, including BBQ roasted duck, so we got one of those. And then some stir fry noodles and finally, for dessert, the sesame balls with red bean inside. The duck was cooked very nicely, with lots of sweet flavor on the skin. The noodles were pretty good too, although I was getting pretty full by then. Loved the sesame balls, of course. In total, our meal for a family of 4 was less than $100! I'd say the prices are very reasonable and affordable here, and the service is pretty good, too! read more

New Dim Sum King is in town! Newly revanished of the old Asian Palace which was much needed. The dim sum is very good here compared to before. One of the best in Memphis! My favorites so far has got to be the Chicken feet. Best I've had in awhile hands down. Cooked just right and not too salty or sweet. Try it out you won't be disappointed. Other items that we had tried were pork ribs in black bean sauce (very good), pineapple buns, pork buns, shu Mai, fried shrimp rolls, salt pepper shrimp, shrimp stuffed with tofu, egg tarts. We reqlly had a variety of dishes from pea plant to beef chow fun from the menu as well. One of the kids favorites. All in all, new Chinese joint with good dim sum in Memphis that's served daily. The staff is attentive and courteous. Try to get their early on Sundays if you plan to go. They open at 10am! read more

I was really nervous to try Dim Sum King after years of loving Asian Palace, but all of the dim sum cart chaos, deliciousness, and range of items are still there! The bathrooms got a major update, the walls got painted, and the ping pong cake is (unfortunately) gone from the deli case and replaced by more traditional Chinese desserts. I think I saw red bean jelly and osmanthus jelly. Service was a little crazy on their second weekend open, but I found the carts came around frequently and we were eating and drinking jasmine tea in no time. Prices are higher which is my only complaint, but I still think they're solid prices. Most items were exactly as I remember, although the egg custard tarts were slightly larger and the har gow wasn't quite as pleasantly salty. I particularly liked trying some spare ribs I hadn't tried yet that were glazed with a bbq type sauce, but they were larger than I'm used to. I can't wait to go back! read more

I ordered wings and two dry slabs of ribs. When my family and I finally decided to eat the ribs on Monday, they were disgusting. They had seasoning caked all on them, and they were overly salty. We wiped off the caked-on seasoning and tried to eat around the saltiness. I was praying the 2nd slab was not the same. When I opened them on 5/27 to see, they were the same. I was trying to avoid calling because I just didn't feel like being bothered. But I called. I left a message for the manager to return my call that morning because "he is in the middle of an interview." So I called back that afternoon and was transferred to Ethan. I explained the situation to him. As I was speaking, he kept making the noise un-huh. So, I stopped talking and asked him what it meant aside from it just being rude as hell. He went on to explain that they missed a step and did not rub in the seasoning and shake it off. I don't care. It's an internal quality issue that should be handled with the prep and cook staff. Not me. He asked if I had my receipt and, in a tone that suggested he was doing me a favor, advised me that he would replace the slab. No apologies for the inconvenience or anything. After my long workday, I went all the way downtown to get the slab replaced. In person, Ethan is just as rude. I asked if he was going to replace both slabs. He could clearly see the quality was trash. He said no and that he would only replace one. Then went on to offer me sides and a slice of cake. No, thank you. I can afford sides and cake just like I did those trash slabs of ribs. Those slabs of ribs cost $62.40 before taxes. With taxes probably being another 5 or 6 dollars. Your mistakes and poor quality should not cost me. He had a young lady bring the replacement slab back out to me. She didn't say thank you or anything. One thing I know is that a white man or woman patronizing your business would not have been treated this way. As a result, moving forward I will spend my Black woman dollars elsewhere on barbeque and smoked chicken wings. Also, I removed you all from my company's approved catering list where we spend a nice amount with you all yearly. Tell Ethan, thanks for helping me see the light and not spend money where I'm not respected and where my customer experience isn't valued.

Wet Willie's specializes in frozen drinks which is needed when you're walking in the 90 degree heat. I ordered the green apple drink and I loved it. I wish more places carried green apple flavored drinks. The drink did not taste strong but you may feel it after a while. They also provide signature mixes which is their version of a frozen cocktail. They looked good so I may have to try it next time. I love how frozen drink bars are starting to expand from just New Orleans and Vegas. I'm hoping it's a trend that keeps growing.

When it came to which flavors to pick, I knew I had to try their award-winning flavor, Memphis Buffalo. I'm not a big wing person, so it was just ok to me. It was good, but didn't wow me. Also, I always get boneless, so I'm not sure if the flavor is different on regular wings- so take my review with a large grain of salt if you're a big wing person. The fries were really good but the flavored versions weren't that impressive so I'd rather just stick to the regular fries. The Pineapple Habanero was really good though. I really liked the flavor and the kick. It's one of the spicier things on the menu so I feel like I could handle the spiciest. I'd come back and try more flavors!

I like the face that they travel around Memphis so everyone can try the food. I ordered a couple of Buffalo Chicken Tacos, an avocado taco, and 18 wings with the flavors of honey gold, bourbon, and memphis buffalo. The tacos were great. I want to order some more. The wings are smoked with the sauce added later. The wings taste good but they are pretty expensive for what they are. People should try the wings but I prefer deep fried wings that hold the sauce better.

Wow! Just walked into this place and was absolutely blown away by how incredible the restaurant looks. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the customer service was top-notch from the moment I walked up to the counter. Now let's talk about the food--because wow. I ordered the lobster with sticky rice and the BBQ duck, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. The Lobster with Sticky Rice - Seasoned to absolute perfection. The lobster literally melts in your mouth, and the rice? So flavorful and somehow perfectly stuck to the lobster in every bite. The texture and taste were just incredible. The BBQ Duck - Fall-off-the-bone tender. It melted in my mouth like butter, and the seasoning was perfectly balanced--not too much, not too little. Just right. Yes, it's on the pricier side--$96 for the meal--but honestly? Worth every penny. This is a must-try spot. I'll definitely be back! read more

Dim Sum King is a fantastic spot for delicious food and a family-friendly atmosphere. Sundays are always lively and packed, which adds to the fun, bustling vibe. It's the perfect place to share small dishes with family and friends, making it a great choice for group dining. The best part is the cart service--servers walk around with carts full of fresh dishes, so you can pick and choose what you'd like to try. I frequently come here with my family, and we always enjoy the variety and quality of the food. It's a wonderful experience every time! read more

Went in for an early New Year's Eve dinner. This place has been here for years; I see it as an…read moreeast Memphis institution. The inside is eclectic, it's not fancy...though this isn't a bad thing. It's a nice escape from the run-of-the-mill Chinese take-out places (where you can eat inside also), it's not trying to be corporate-flashy. Best I can describe it is authentic to the people who own the joint. And I like it; a couple of fish tanks, some kitsch, the odd neon signs inside (over the bar, on the west wall towards the rear), the unused area to the right of the bar. Somethings work, something's are out of place, but it's a testament to the longevity of the location. So the food: the value is great. The apps were middle-of-the-road (sweet fire shrimp, spicy cucumbers (sans spicy but ponzu), spring rolls. The stand out was the hot and sour soup. Nothing really novel about it, but exactly what I was looking for. As the duck sauce was a bit sweet for the spring rolls to my liking, I found it necessary, and delicious, to dunk the spring rolls in the hot and sour soup. The Scientist had her usual kung-pao chicken. Really good, if not a bit basic (though the slight notch up of heat from the Szechuan peppers was appreciated). I went with the Peking duck. It's the most expensive thing on the menu (as it is everywhere else), but worth it. This is going to feed 2-3 or a big meal there and a healthy portion to take home. The skin crispy, the meat moist. Bones removed, but for the wings and thigh bones...it was appreciated. Served with Chinese pancakes and onions and a delightful hoisin. Highly recommended. The staff was delightful. Efficient (if not a little too efficient; we had two servers ask for our order), attentive, hospitable. We don't really have a go-to for Chinese food. Despite being out in Gtown, this may be our new default for Chinese eat-in or take-out.

This is definitely a place that any foodie craving Chinese food should try. Their Peking duck is probably the best value for the money in Memphis. My family and I always order way too many dishes when we come here, and there's always enough left over to take home and enjoy later. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that the food can take a while to come out, and the checkout process is also pretty slow. We usually end up going to grab our own takeout containers because it takes so long.

However, my work is nearby so it's been convenient for me to grab food for us after work to eat together so we have been eating here more often. Mom loves the Empress Shrimp here but they automatically add something that makes it a little spicy that makes it too spicy for her. So she has to be sure to tell them no spice. I have tried it with and without spice and it's fantastic either way though I definitely prefer with spice (it wasn't spicy to me, just more flavorful). I'm addicted to the shrimp rolls and steamed dumplings so I gotta get those every time I come here. The egg drop soup is good here as well. I have enjoyed a few main courses but nothing has stood out to the point where I have to have it so I'll have to keep trying different things.

Apparently, that is not quite how it works here. The hostess explained that the posted hours are "off" and laid out a pretty confusing timeline of how they actually operate: At 2:00 PM: Dining inside officially ends, because the servers stop working. Until 2:15 PM: You can still place a to-go order because the kitchen is technically open. At 2:30 PM: The restaurant actually closes. So, if you arrive at 2:00 PM, you are strictly limited to takeout. It is a bit frustrating to be turned away from dining in a full half-hour before the scheduled closing time just because the staff is already winding down. If the dining room closes at 2:00 PM, it would be a lot easier for everyone if they just updated their posted hours to reflect that.

Best Thai I've had in Memphis, though I wouldn't really call Memphis the best place to find Asian cuisine. We had Pad See Ew, Panang curry, spring rolls and dumplings.
