I'm visiting from socal and the dim sum is made differently here nothing bad about it but nothing special. I felt like for dim sum the food was slow to come out at first ( I was told that they make it to order ) so that's perhaps why. It was empty when we first arrived then it started picking up. The spacing Of the tables are a bit crammed. read more

HK Dim Sum - Dim sum menu - Dim Sum Near Me - Houston, Texas

After trying several places, HK Dim Sum is my go to dim sum spot in Houston! They consistently deliver super fresh, hot, and tasty dim sum dishes. On a weekday the place isn't too crowded, but they're usually bustling until close on the weekends! My favorite orders are the eggplant stuffed with shrimp and the crystal shrimp dumplings. The servers are super nice, and I've even seen them give free dessert (the egg tarts) to everyone in the restaurant! The one item I'll say was subpar from their menu was the fried breadsticks - they were super dry and crunchy, which is not how they should be. I'm not sure if this was a fluke, so I'm thinking of trying it again and seeing if they redeem themselves. Overall, will continue to visit HK Dim Sum again and again! read more

HK Dim Sum - Clockwise from top left: rice soup with pork egg, steamed beef rice noodle, steamed BBQ rice noodle, eggplant stuffed with shrimp - Dim Sum Near Me - Houston, Texas

I've walked by this unassuming place many times over the years and i FINALLY got to try it. Man, what a treat. I think every single dish I ordered was amazing (and we ordered quite the variety). Everything from spare ribs, chicken feet, shrimp noodle, sticky rice, shumai, tripe, congee, fried taro, etc. Everything was excellent in flavor, texture, freshness. Its a small restaurant so there are no carts, which i prefer, because everything comes out fresh steamed or cooked from the kitchen; way better in my opinion. You order on a paper sheet, so very convenient. Will be going back when I'm in town. read more

ALWAYS CHECK YOUR RECEIPT WITH THEM! BEWARE IF YOU'RE PAYING CASH!!!! They give a 5% discount if you pay your food order in cash so I paid cash to avoid the credit card fee. I don't usually check my receipt in detail and I discovered they CHARGED ME A CREDIT CARD FEE when I paid cash. I told them about this and they tried to act like they didn't charge me. They gave no apology or admit fault. It clearly shows in the receipt they added it. I asked for a refund because I was too afraid they were going to spit on my to-go order when I complained about the credit card fee charge. They wouldn't give back my receipt so I can post it as proof -- So, check your receipt that they don't charge you a credit card fee when you paid cash. God knows how many people they've cheated who pay cash and don't look at their receipt. read more

I was thinking for about a week of where to go for Dim Sum. There are many places that offer it around the city. But one restaurant had me curious to try: HK Dim Sum. I would often overlook it since it is in a very busy plaza and was lucky dine in during a slower time in the day. I went with what I would typically order on a menu. The fried taro puffs, Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce, har gow, siu mai, custard buns and egg tarts. My cousin added on the steam shrimp rice noodle as well. Of course I had to get some Jasmine green tea too. Very flavorful all around and I was very lucky to have ordered the last egg tarts for the day. I was please with everything but definitely remembered my lesson to not over order. I am ashamed to find out I was always walking past HK Dim Sum when it is a solid choice and just enough seats all around not to feel too crowded. I will definitely keep HK Dim Sum on my mind if I am in a search for this cuisine. The staff were nice as well and prices are reasonable too. read more

All I gotta say is the service is awful me and my gf ended up seeing this restaurant and decided to give it a try and when we walked in it was empty and it was just the owners and they gave us really nasty looks as if we weren't supposed to be there. they will force you to tip and if you don't tip they'll talk shit about you in their language so that's pretty lit. Food was pretty ight but service horrible just don't go here unless you wanna be pressured read more

This is my new favorite dimsum place. I was pleasantly surprise hiw good the food was. The beef tendon noodle soup is good, the shrimp and pork shumai, the chicken feet and even tyr shrimp dumpling. The taiwanese style dumpling is a little bit let down, the wrapper is thick and there's not a lot of soup, the fried turnip cake is very crispy and flavorful. The service crews are very friendly and attentive. The restroom is clean. read more

Prior to writing this review, I had no had Dim Sum in a very, very, very, very long time. Like I'm talking about years... dating back to pre-COVID. So I was VERY excited to go get Dim Sum for the first time in a very long time. Coming to this restaurant, the waitstaff and service was good, they were friendly and they spoke in a good tone. The ambiance and seating is very simple as well. Let's get to the real talk. The food. We got the following itmes: Har Gao (Steamed Shrimp Dumpling) Shu Mai (Steamed Shrimp and Pork Dumpling) Pan Fried Turnip Cake Deep Fried Taro Puff w/Meat Red Bean Sesame Balls Pan Fried Stuffed Bell Pepper All of these items tasted very good and were delicious! I highly recommend all of these for you to try on your next visit. read more

The service was warm and welcoming, but the meal was just okay. I enjoyed the shrimp dumplings, but the shrimp rice roll, shrimp fried rice, and eggplant didn't stand out as much. While the servers were hospitable, the vegetarian and pescatarian options felt somewhat limited. read more

We tried most of the seafood and tofu options but i honestly don't remember what is what. Everything we ordered was delicious & I would come back again! I wish we had more authentic dim sum options in Nashville! Staff were nice and accommodating to questions we had. We came after lunch so it wasn't busy at all. read more

Located in the Dun Huang Plaza the restaurant is not very large and the chairs are kind of cramped. Came on a Friday afternoon with my dad for a quick snack around 1 pm and the restaurant was pretty empty. We ordered ha gao, shrimp rice rolls, and chicken feet. The food came out hot. The two waiter there was attentive but never came back to top off our water throughout our meal. Food overall was pretty decent. read more

I think this is a great option for late night dim sum. Very affordable. The fried rice was great, preffered the pork shumai over the shrimp. I thought the bbq pork buns were actually really good. Regular pork dumplings were standouts. Sesame balls were pretty good. The crystal shrimp were decent and worth getting if people like those. The chili oil here is stellar. Would probably still go else where for dim sum during the lunch time but was a good option for dinner. read more

I had originally plan to go to Dim Sum King for a late Sunday Dim Sum session after a long drive in from Austin. However, I came back into town pretty late and DSK was going to be closed by the time I got in so I decided to go to the next best thing, HK Dim Sum, since it closed later on a Sunday night than DSK. Food was legit - I had a friend who was visiting in town and she pretty much loved everything that she'd tried. However, the service here was pretty meh even for Chinatown standard. When we'd ask for something from the waiter (like an extra sauce, for example), he wouldn't even acknowledge that he'd heard us and would just leave and then came back with an extra sauce. The only time that he would acknowledge us for anything is when he didn't hear or understand what we wanted. I mean, is hospitality dead in here? When I received the check, a 15% tip was already added to our total bill. There were THREE people in our party!! I didn't realize that this place would add an automatic tip for a party of three people. I don't think I've ever been to a restaurant where a tip is automatically added unless there's at least six people in a party. I mean, I was going to tip at least that anyway, but had I not checked that the tip was already added, I probably would've double tipped because I wouldn't have been expecting that automatic tip on the bill. I'll be back only if DSK is closed. Otherwise, I'll stick with DSK read more

A little intimidated to try this place because it was my first time getting dim sum. The menu was easy to use and I honestly believe you can't choose the wrong thing.

Nice place. Of course quality is expected considering the shopping plaza it's located in. Very small but clean and inviting atmosphere. We had various dumplings and noodles... There wasn't anything I ate that I did not enjoy. The service was quick and friendly as well. They were happily singing and whistling along to the music on the loudspeaker - which made me feel they enjoyed working here read more

Always been a solid choice for dim sum. I met my wife for our first date here in 2016 and we have been coming back ever since! The service is friendly and attentive. read more

Okay, first off I have to say this is a review from my wife and daughter. This isn't really my kind of place, BUT they love this place. We come every time we're in town and they always leave stuffed and happy. Second, you need to understand how things work here. The staff are extremely efficient. They bring you the menu, you pick your items, and the kitchen starts making it. You get the food served hot, as it becomes ready. Very different style than in American restaurants. So accept it and eat it as it comes up. Also, know that when you finish a dish they will scoop it up to make food for the next thing. It's their world, we just live in it, ok? The interior may not look like a Michelin restaurant, and that's really ok. The food SO makes up for it. It's clean, close, and efficient. What more could you want? To summarize, ... Go. Eat. Enjoy. You'll thank me. read more

Go-to dim sum, can do no wrong here. Located in the Dun Huang plaza. It gets pretty crowded here but they're pretty quick on service so I never really have to wait to be seated. After trying other dim sum places, this is now my favorite place to get dim sum and everyone I take here also enjoys it. You order off the menu and the dim sum comes out pretty quickly. Everything is hot and fresh. Top items to try are the crab puffs, xiu mai, Chinese brocolli, beef rice rolls, and the fried eggplants with shrimp. Services are friendly. This place is very casual and feels homey. I prefer these kind of places to get dim sum. Always hit the spots when I'm craving dim sum. read more

There's a lot of positives and negatives about this place, so not surprised about the mixed reviews They've updated their hours and prices. Also was surprised about the already added gratuity for a party of only 4. Now onto the food: Steamed shrimp dumplings (7.5/10): definitely one of the best things here and one of the best steamed shrimp dumpling I've had at a Houston dim sum Bird's nest shrimp: (3/10) there was barely any shrimp and was super dry Fried shrimp rolls (7.5/10) accidentally ordered these thinking it was the birds nest shrimp but pleasantly surprised! One of the best dishes we had Shrimps shumai (7/10): I'm not a fan of mushrooms, so I like these. But for fans of shumai, you may think it's missing some flavor Chicken feet (7/10): Just your standard chicken feet. Not bad, just okay read more

The place was packed when we went, which is usually a good sign. Unfortunately this place was less than average. I'm very thankful we didn't order a lot of food. We got congee, shumai, shrimp balls, and tea. The only thing holding me back from giving this place one star was the tea. It was freshly brewed and refreshing. On the other hand was the food. The congee had too much ginger, to the point where It was overbearing. The shumai was doughy and lacked flavor. Lastly, the shrimp balls had a rubbery texture. To make matters worse, their internet went down, so we were forced to use cash. Overall, I wouldn't come back. There are plenty of other options when it comes to dim sum in this area. read more

I was here with a friend visiting from Kauai. We were hungry at 10:00 am. Unfortunately, I can't take him to my favorite restaurants in Chinatown because not a single one was ready for lunch. After deep diving on Yelp app, we found HK Dim Sum opens at 10:00 am. The place filled up quickly after we arrived. But that didn't excite me. Since I could never finish all the dishes I want in one setting, I always need a tag-alone. This was a perfect opportunity. When I eat dim sum, I have certain expectation with delicacy and flavor. I felt bad about my friend tolerated its mediocre quality because there ain't any dim sum restaurant on the island that I know of. We ordered 水晶蝦餃皇 Steamed Shrimp Dumplings 鮮蝦燒賣皇 Steamed Shrimp & Pork Dumplings 迷你珍珠雞 Steamed Sticky Rice - they came with 臘腸 lop cheong sausage on top of rice and wrapped with lotus leaf. But it looked like 腊味糯米饭 Lo Mai Gai. 住候蘿白牛雑 Mixed Beef Tripe with White Turnip - my friend loved the pleasing taste, but I didn't care for. 鮮蝦腸粉 Steamed Shrimp Rice Noodles - all ingredients were wrapped with thick layer of rice noodles. Really tough to eat. 蜂巢炸芋角 Deep Fried Taro Puff - this dish was my favorite. It had crunchy shell and creamy center. Because I don't normally eat dim sum, I can't tell what is good to eat. I was glad he filled the table with food and we took leftover for later. read more

It was okay. I feel like it's a hit or miss because last time we came it was a lot better than today. Everything was very dry and not flavorful. The pork buns were way too sweet The texture of the cheung fun was sticky and soggy which was kind of gross. :( read more

I've heard a lot of mixed reviews about this place and figured one day I would try it out for myself. We ended up here for Saturday brunch because our usual breakfast place was closed. Its usually a good sign when a dimsum place is made to order, but all of the dishes here were underwhelming. They are packed inside but it's a facade because they are so slow with getting food out that you end up staying for a very long time. We came at 12:15, put in our order quickly and it was 1:00 before our first food item came out. Things we tried: Shrimp dumplings 7/10 - the best thing we ordered here honestly. Potstickers - 5/10- they were fried well but the filling was just so so Beef chow fun - 3/10 (there were literally 4 pieces of beef in the entire plate- see photos). How can you charge almost $12 for this?! Chinese broccoli w/ oyster sauce - 7/10 this tasted just fine but not sure why it took 45 min+ for this to come out. It's the simplest item on the menu to make... just boiled broccoli and oyster sauce from the bottle... Chinese fried doughnut 油条 - they were sooo small and not satisfying. I have bought frozen ones from the Asian market that were larger and more tasty Congee- 4/10 again should've been very quick to come out as it's usually premade since it's supposed to be simmered for hours for more flavor. But I felt they had to make it on the spot because it tasted very bland. There was also very little meat/duck egg inside. Sesame balls - 6/10 these tasted decent they just took ages to come out I understand some of the fried items take longer to prepare, but the Chinese broccoli and congee should honestly not take much time so it was disappointing to wait so long for our food. On top of that it was a rip off that there was so little meat in the food we ordered. They also charged tip automatically in a table of 5, which I find odd as most places don't add gratuity until there are 6+ people especially in Chinatown. read more

Let me tell this place is getting worse dirty and service gets worse. I can and did over a $200 order the people are so rude. When you as the lady with glasses for sauce for 6 order of Chan Fan she tore into the bag and said you have it her. All I ask is more since it was 7 orders. I bought so much shrimp dumplings and Shu mai and did not get any soy sauce. When I asked for it was like I was asking for something odd. The guys said it is in there. I showed him it was oyster sauce for the Chinese broccoli no soy sauce. As I waited saw roaches by the packing area. So disgustingly I gave up and decided that between the dirty place, awful service, I would never recommend this place to anyone. read more

Another stop in our monthly dim sum tour. Each month, a new spot. We came on a rainy Saturday, the store was mostly empty. It was glorious. We had a very good meal, see the photos. Service was fast, and fantastic. The food was hot and tasty. Very good, and worth a shot!! read more

Probably the worst dim sum I've had and I've tried dim sum from all over the country. Everything was bland and lackluster. I had to drench everything in soy sauce to get some sort of flavor. Their siu mai was unusually pale and looked really unappetizing (and tasted like it too). Other classic dishes like turnip cake and cheung fun were so oily and greasy, making it difficult to eat more than a couple of bites. The chicken feet had an odd aftertaste, but were big and cooked well so that's something I guess. I came because I was recommended it, but I was highly disappointed. I'd recommend going elsewhere because it was not good at all. Service was quick and friendly though, but that's probably the only positive thing about this place. read more

Beware! We had a worst experience tonight in this place! First , the server, we were just about to be seated (4 of us) then she immediately asked for what drinks we want, without giving us a chance to sit first and check for the menu , then we all decided just to order for a regular Coke, then she just put the menu and piece of paper with a pen on the table and left and came back and served our drinks without asking us if we know how to place an order , maybe the server assumed that we know how , but even then she should be accommodating, then she came to our table and and then just grabbed our order and again without asking us to clarify our orders and I was the one who told her that we need to order the other items and she said yes I know! Then came back and just marked one of our order telling us that they run out of that custard and without asking us if we have other option! We were starting to be upset but we manage to stay cool be considerate since we ordered a lot of dimsum. But we were already wondering how come the server is like that. Poor customer service . Then, i have noticed that the other server was haunting a customer from outside and we were curious why she is doing that ? Because we saw that the customer who just left paid their bill. Then as they serve our food , it was ok at first though it was not serve at the same time and maybe because they their kitchen were busy . We tried to enjoy our food and started to review each dimsum and we discussed within ourselves comparing which dimsum we love the most etc. The server kept coming back and staring at us and all of a sudden removing our empty plates without asking for an excuse if its ok for her to grab the empty plates but its alright maybe she is in a hurry to wash them since our table is like a buffet of dimsum We asked for extra table napkins and we were disappointed because the napkin looks like the leftover from the previous customer she grabbed it from the basket from the door side ( i have take a picture of it) of course we did not use it instead we used it to wipe the table. The server went to our table and grab a piece of napkin and wipe the cover of a chili jar and ask telling us to cover the jar since we are done eating!! Wow! Can she not do it when all of us leave ?? This is the part that every customer should be aware of!! When we paid our bill i left them with 10$ tip only because we were not happy with their service! We know that the minimum is 15% but as a customer we have the right bot to follow the minimum tip especially if the service and the food is not really that good! But the lady threatened us that she will add more tip into our bill! Then she turned her back and started to talk shit about us in her language. She has the nerve to ask why we only give her 10$ tip and I was honest enough to tell her that its because of their service and why would she threatened us that she will add more tip to our bill!! Can she really do that?? Dont she think that we can always dispute the amount if she will really do that?? Now, it makes sense why she kept on haunting the customer when they left after she check the total balance if the customer has really left a 15% tip! This is the only asian restaurant that we have encountered like haunting for tip We this will be the last time we will eat in this olace and I will make sure to tell all my friends not to eat there .There are more dimsum belaire that are clean and friendly atmosphere. By the way we left our to go order ( sesame ball) we waited for 15 mins and we thought she will never give it to us and we also thought they may spit on it before they will give to us so we decided to leave. read more

I used to like them a lot. Their xiu mais used to be a lot bigger. The other dishes were never my favorite. You can get way BETTER Chinese food a few shops down at Fufu. I'm kind of skeptical about their sanitation lately too especially with the covid being around. The staff aren't very friendly but they do their job. Take your order and bring it to you and that's it lol. It's kind of a turn off for me because friendly customer service makes you feel welcomed yaknow. read more

Used to be a go-to dim sum spot for our family until about a year ago. While with my elderly mom and dad, they tried to auto-grat us for 5 people without letting us know AND the policy does not exist. When confronted, they tried to explain but I would not let it go so they finally gave me another bill without the auto-grat. Haven't been back and won't be anymore either read more
