The new management has done wonders for this restaurant. The decor has been updated and the restaurant is very clean. The dim sum was excellent. But my favorite dish was the braised pig ears. Spicy, a little crunchy, yet also tender. The space is large, so I hope they start to attract large dim sum crowds. I will definitely be back for the pig ears. read more

Definitely diggin' the remodeled space, addition of new dishes and vibe of this establishment. We dined at Super Star in the past and this is a total transformation from what it was. It's bright, big, decor is beautiful and most importantly - clean! All the dim sum staples are on carts; shu mai, hai gow, chicken feet, tripe, soup dumplings, turnip cakes, baked bbq bun, chinese broccoli, pineapple bun, shrimp crepes. There is room for the carts to move around and they come around often. Everything we order from the menu comes out quickly (salt and pepper squid, chow fun). Weekend dim sum gets busy at lunch time so I'd get there early or expect a wait. If you want to try something new and cool, order the smoked fire shrimp. Crispy and spicy shrimp with heads on wrapped in foil and lit on fire at the table. Also, if you have an appetite, order the whole sichuan fish. Lots of peppers and spices and the whole fish brought to your table in a huge serving tray. We've only dined for dim sum, but are excited to come for dinner! read more

Wow! Haven't been since it was Super Star. The remodel is so nice and it feels like a different restaurant. Our first visit was on Mother's Day. We got there a little after 10. And by 10:20, it was full and they were on a waitlist. What I love about dim sum is the carts and how quickly you can get food. I've decided that dim sum is the perfect place to bring toddlers. You get your food within minutes of sitting down. And there is no waiting for food that your toddler gets bored. We got so much food ranging from shumai, chicken feet, Chinese broccoli, shrimp balls and so many items. We were in and out of there in about 30-45 minutes. I love how quick it is too. We will definitely be back. A decent dim sum spot. The remodel looks so nice. read more

Star Kitchen, you now face some stiff competition! Thai place is clean and service is typical of many cart style dim sum. There are a couple dishes I still prefer at Star Kitchen like their roast duck and chow mein. Quality is there and each dumpling was amazing. The soup dumplings where juicy, and the siao mai was plump...like seriously big! The pork filling was juicy and savory! The roasted/crispy pork was salty but not overbearing with that typical Chinese 5 spice flavor. The turnip cake and rolled rice cake with xo sauce was to diet for! Overall I highly recommend Harbor Dimsum especially since their prices are very competitive! read more

Review is for their dinner service. I haven't been back to what used to be Super Star in a long time, and what a refreshing uplift of the remodel and new ownership. We were here celebrating a friend's dad's bday and had a really good early dinner. The decor is so nice and beautiful, the chairs are upgraded, the floor no longer the sticky industrial carpet... I still see a couple familiar faces working there for years and good to see them still working at the same location though different restaurants. I love the fried chicken, the daikon beef stew pot, the eggplant stew pot, the string beans.... Everything was so good! We like the clay pot rice but note that the chicken and mushroom one - the chicken does have some small bones in it. If you want no bones get the sausage one cuz the other ones either pork ribs also would have bones. Those take about 30 mins to cook so order ahead if you know you want them. Service was great and the meal was tasty. Def want to come back and try their dim sum next time, but dinner was a great meal celebrating the birthday papa! read more

Heard the braised pigeon at Harbor Dim Sum and Cuisine was very authentic and quite good, so have to try it out on my own. The place was reasonably busy in early Sunday afternoon. Glad the dim sum carts were still around, so also ordered a few items since it has been a while since having dim sum last time. The braised pigeon here was of the Guangdong Zhongshan style, with crispy skin and tender and juicy meat, even the bones were kind of crunchy, bringing back the memory of the taste from yesteryears. For dim sum, ordered the shrimp rice noodle rolls, XO sauce turnip cake, steamed chicken feet in brown sauce and beef offal in stew. The rice noodle rolls were fresh from the steamer, with a soft, tender and slippery texture, not overly thick to be floury and not overly thin to lose its chewiness. Certainly one of the better rice noodles in town. The XO sauce turnip cake, steamed chicken feet and stewed beef offal were all a little spicy. With the signature taste of the XO sauce, the turnip cake did not need additional dipping sauce. The turnip cake was served in small cubes, with crispy and earthly exterior and soft interior, matching the savory taste of the XO sauce well. The chicken feet were tender, meaty and flavorful. Beef offal was aromatic, tender and chewy. A very satisfying lunch and no wonder it was quite packed in late afternoon. read more

This is a great Cantonese restaurant for authentic dim sum and Chinese cuisine. Love the new Chinese decor. Service is prompt and attentive which is not typically the came in Chinese restaurants. The servers are very fast and efficient. They pay close attention to details. We came here for the Dim Sum and ordered an assortment of dishes that satisfied my daughter's cravings for dumplings and noodles. They couldn't get enough of them so they must be good! The beef balls have great flavors but have stringy parts in the middle, which made it hard to chew. The beef noodles hit the spot with tender beef sliced and flavorful broth. Other customers ordered food from the main menu which looked so delicious. Highly recommend this restaurant if you want to impress someone with authentic Chinese food. In comparison to LA Chinese food, I give an 8/10 which is a high mark. read more

Extensive menu with a great dim sum selection! I've been a few times, and continue to come back. Food is great, even my veg mom is a returning customer. The service can feel inconsistent with the food carts getting caught up around larger groups, but there's often so many employees that it's not really a problem. Large dining room with many tables that can accommodate various group sizes. read more

Came by for a later weekend lunch and honestly, this is exactly what I want from a classic dim sum spot. We were seated quickly, and I love that they're old school with the carts coming around instead of QR codes or ordering off the menu (which you can still do if you want to order anything else on the menu that isn't on the carts). The carts came by and had a great selection of classic items. They were a little slow at times but we were on the later side of lunch service and it was relatively easy to catch someone's eye and have them come by the table. We grabbed baked BBQ pork buns, fried shrimp balls, har gow, siu mai, and xiao long bao and every single dish was fresh and hot! This isn't a fancy or trendy place, but that is definitely part of the charm. They have a large parking lot that they share with other businesses which makes visiting very easy. Would definitely come back again! read more

We went on a weekday in the afternoon so I'll imagine the dim sum carts weren't at full capacity. There were also a couple items that weren't available that were showing on the menu in my experience. Usually the weekday menu as less items than the weekend, but that'll be something I'll have to check out next time I go. I noticed a lot of items on the menu were the same items that they had at the location on Federal at Happy Cafe. I had previously had their pork and rice clay pot dish which I noticed so I'm very pleased to see that. I love the decor and the space. The service was great and I'll be looking to do more of an apples to apples comparison to Star kitchen by going on a weekend later. read more

I am personally pretty excited for a new dim sum to enter the Denver scene. I have enjoyed Happy Cafe so when I heard they were moving to a bigger location, I had to try their dim sum option. They had a pretty good selection even on a weekday. I was so excited for the durian puff pastry and they're the only place that makes it. We ordered 3 orders because they were so good. I really hope they keep it on the menu. The pastries were overall full of flavor and flakiness. They weren't overly sweet or bland. I only had the bbq pork cheung fun and that was really tasty. I can't wait to come back and try it in person instead of a to go order my parents got me. read more

Found a 2nd good dim sum place in Denver's Chinatown. The restaurant is very clean and well staffed. The service is attentive. And while not full on Wednesday at lunch, there were 10 tables all with Asian patrons. A good sign that there is something good cooking here! Just updated the review. Upon reflection. This place has superior, parking, service, and cleanliness relative to the average Denver dim sum restaurant. The only negative for which I took away a star was the Chinese Broccoli was cool and not piping hot when I ordered it out of the cart. Also there is a soft opening sign which is a bit misleading since this place has been around for a long while. It's just recently under new management. read more

Happy Lunar New Year!!! I just love the way they decorated the inside after the new ownership! It's so festive and fun! We were glad to hear we could still get dimsum for dinner although they didn't have carts going- most places stop cart service by 3, but we could still order all the goodies- the tasty surprise tonight was the rice noodle rolls in XO sauce- sooo yummy! Don't miss out on the fried Chinese buns with condensed milk for a decadent dessert- the way my mama used to make! Checf's kiss! read more

Wanted to try Harbor since new ownership. It was nice. The dim sum was good, but could tell small flavor differences. The tofu was less peppery, but saltier. We did have to request several dishes, but left full. Recognized familiar Aunties still doing their thang. =) There were seven of us and they added gratuity (standard and let us know when we paid ~$32 each). Overall, good experience and glad it's doing well. read more

Pretty solid dim sum option! (Plus: it's in the same complex as Costco Business center) Plenty of parking in front of the restaurant. The food was good. The service was so-so. It took a while for the steamed dumpling cart to come around. The crispy shrimp ball dish was delicious, as was the salt and pepper tofu. Everything else was tasty too but those were the standouts. read more

I absolutely love this place! The dim sum is abundant and a great variety. We went there very hungry, with ravenous appetites, devoured everything we possibly could and left satisfied and craving for more the next day. The service was fantastic! They didn't skip a beat keeping up with our group and helped accommodate with some that didn't eat pork. The establishment is casual, nothing fancy. Just come hungry and have an open mind! Cannot wait to go back here! read more

Walking toward the restaurant, I noticed the "Soft Opening" sign, which generally means "please be kind, we are still working on our dishes.", so I walked in without any expectations. And boy, was I wrong for not having any expectations! The place was almost completely packed, and the noises from the conversation at each table, the many carts workers were pushing, and the happy faces on people's faces as they are eating their food, made me realized this IS the new place in Denver where one can have dim sum and enjoy eating these bite-sized nuggets often filled with variety of meat choices. The various dishes I ate were delicious. From the siu mai, deep fried tofu, a variety of dumplings, to the salt & pepper shrimp and salt & pepper squid, and even complimentary salted egg custard dumplings, my table of 9 diners left feeling very satisfied and most importantly, happy. Happy we came to eat, and happy to have nice conversations with each other. This restaurant is not lack of lighting, and it is nice and clean. Each table has white linen and filled with plates and utensils, ready to welcome next group of diners. If you are looking a place to catch up with friends or bringing your family together to have a meal, I believe this restaurant will be perfect for you. Enjoy! read more

Food: We ordered many dim sum to try out and my top three picks are 1. Shrimp & chives dumbling 2. BBQ pork bun(steamed) 3. Baked salted egg lava bun(sweet) The variety of hot tea costs only $1.50 per person & I like my Jasmine tea. The foods are delicious & quick. I enjoy all the deliciousness. Service: Very quick & attentive for weekday brunch. Asked for extra small dipping sauce and get them quickly. Above average friendly staffs for dim sum restaurant in Denver area. Ambiance: Traditional Chinese style decor with clots cover chairs. Clean & smell nice! It brought me back to my childhood Chinese restaurant in Bangkok, Thailand. Sum up: I will go back here when I am craving dim sum. Happy with prices, service, parking, next to GW supermarket & delicious foods! Deducted 1 star bc I wishes they have more option on Veggies based dim sum. I only saw shiitake & shrimp dumpling. And prefer my dim sum to be more piping hot as a original Chinese style. read more

I love how they still have push carts for lots of modernized goodies. Like bbq Galbi, salt and pper shrimp, salt and pepper calamari amongst many baked pastries (sweet and savory). Their steamed carts have all the staples: shrimp dumpling, pork dumplings, shrimp or bbq pork rice rolls, chicken feet, scallop dumplings, lotus leaf wrapped sticky rice with sausage, pork and mushrooms. We had such a great time enjoying every bite. The service and atmosphere is as expected for a bustling Chinese dim sum spot. Our waters are always filled. It gets less bus after 1:15pm and we had a very short wait. No reservations for small parties but can join the waitlist when you arrive. read more

We had 10 people (6 adults and 4 kids)... ordered the smallest seafood combo package which I believe is $650. Um.... that was a mistake... we could barely finish the food. Everything was pretty underwhelming. I wish we went through and ordered things individually. We also ordered a lot of beers. Ended up paying $1000 and leaving pretty disappointed. read more

Great variety and lovely company! This location shares a large parking lot with the surrounding businesses. Great Wall and Costco Business are a few. We called ahead and made a reservation. They were able to accommodate our large party by bringing us up into two tables. You can divide the checks per table. They push the items out on a cart and you're able to pick and choose what items you want from there. One of my friends who goes often knows what to order so we let them decide everything. Everything was fresh and flavorful! If there's something you want, that's not on the menu, they are happy to make a customized item for you. Very friendly staff and would definitely go again. It does get a little loud just because the room is not that big, but we could also hear each other and not feel like we were yelling. read more

Happy Cafe was one of my favorite Chinese restaurants, and was happy to hear that they took over this dim sim location. The food was good but the delivery was a little disorganized, which I think will get better over time. We had a late lunch so the dim sum cart service was wrapped up and the options seemed a little limited. We later saw other people with menus but weren't offered menus to look at. We also had some items meant for the table next to us that were misdelivered to our table. Our favorite dish was the lobster. It was so good! Very well seasoned, would definitely get this again. Dim sum was good too. The spicy chicken was a huge portion and I had leftovers for days. I'm interested to come back here once they've been operating a little longer and have smoothed out the dim sim service processes. read more

Service was bad. We got seated in their supposedly vip room and there was no service at all. The dim sum steam cart and dessert came in once and never came back. We tried to order food off their regular menu but no one came in or check on us. The table next to us in the room had the same issue. After waiting for a bit for no one to come in we got up and paid the bill. 20% gratuity was add to your bill because we had a party of more then 5, but we had no services. It will be our first and last impression and will not be back. read more

2nd time here. The first time I was in and out so fast I did not do a review. Dim sum has another spot here in denver. The chicken feet is on par. The Xiu mai was good, not as big as star kitchen. The place is brought and clean. Very nice and attentive staff. Came back the 2bd time for dinner with my wife. She wanted chicken feet and try out this spot. I went without her the first time for lunch. Today's dinner: chicken feet , salt and pepper tofu , beef chow fun , eggplant and pork , steam chicken half with ginger and onion. I recommend all the dishes today except the steam chicken(ginger onion sauce was off, chicken was not free range). 35 yrs of enjoying the authentic asian cuisine scene all over the US , I can say I am satisfied with this restaurant in terms of service, ambience, and cleanliness. I will certainly be back for chicken feet read more
