For a place that doesn't serve dim sum on the cart, I would think ordering off the menu would make the dim sum more fresh but it isn't in this case at this place. Their dim sum is good, but it's not the freshest and it's not the best, but it is ok. One thing I didn't like was that thier fried pork and taro was so oily and dense. Other places I've had it at were so light and crispy and not oily at all. read more

Sorry, HK. I'm gonna have to bump off two star after my last visit. I always liked HK because their dim sum (specially their ha cao) was fresh and tasted authentic. After my last visit, I don't think I will be returning :( Everything we ordered was over-steamed and soggy. The ha cao skin was rubbery and kept in sticking to the steamer / our plates. The skin ended up breaking and my shrimps fell out! The BBQ pork buns tasted old and flavorless. How can it have no flavor when it looks like the frozen stuff from the Asian supermarket next door?? Apparently there's a new owner and you can no longer order off the menu (i.e. Noodles, veggies, other meats). You can only order off the paper dim sum menu, but they still give you their full menu. How deceiving! I am thoroughly disappointed with HK and I'm sad to say that I won't be returning after eating here for the past 4 years. read more

Very disappoint about quality of food currently. Service is still good. Price is higher than other dim sum restaurants. In the old day, there always are long waiting lines at the door. Not any more. I hope they realize the situation and improve their quality of ha cao and xiu mai. read more

Horrible place to seat yourself to eat some dim sum. Apparently, it's supposed to be all day dim sum. Concept or not, this place is the shits. They have horrible "siu mai" and almost anything is gross. We got the sticky rice in leaves and I believe my rice was old. There was a "sour" taste to it. YUCK! No carts because space is non existent inside. Really crowded, fire hazard much? Please do yourself a favor and go to a REAL dim sum place. If you want it late at night, just order more at a decent place and take it home for your nightly dim sum cravings. This place is not worth your time and money. read more

Heard a lot of good things about HK Dim Sum so I finally gave them a shot this past Sunday. Restaurant is small and kind of cramped, not surprising as it is a smaller space. Perused the menu, then wrote down the quantity next to the item I would like. Ordered shrimp dumplings, pork & shrimp dumplings, chicken feet, fried taro, the little shrimp wrapped in rice paper, and a few other things. Most everything was hot and delivered to the table quickly. I don't like chicken feet, but my brother says they were good so i'll take his word for it... Definitely different than the dim sum i'm used to with the carts, but I think I like this version much better. Service was quick enough, definitely wasn't hovered over which was nice since authentic Asian restaurants in bellaire generally don't employ the friendliest people ever.Water was refilled when low so that was good. read more

It was the worst dim sum I have ever had, and almost the worst restaurant I've had in all of Chinatown. I am so disappointed. And the dishes were really expensive. 2 of us, $73 bill for the terrible food. ALL of the meat tasted incredibly off, and everything was NOT FRESH. I was so curious how a restaurant could be a 3-star in Dun Huang Plaza and have it a chance. But I am none the wiser, because it's far worse than a 3-star restaurant. Really bad flavors, and way overpriced. Also, we found a long, wiry hair that resembled pubic hair in our dumpling. Never again will I visit this restaurant. Eat anywhere else in the plaza. Except for maybe Strings Noodles. HK Dim Sum, you suck. read more

Foods: 4/10. Not bad but there are better places for the price. Services: 1/10. Weekends are always packed, so expect long wait. However, once seated, it's pretty much up to your luck if you get any services at all. We were sitting for 30min and saw 2 groups got up and left because the waiters ignored their orders multiple times. Don't think the foods justify the services. There other places to try. read more

A common problem I keep on reading about is their service. Although I get it's the standard bellaire service, I feel like after all these years being open, they should gradually become better. They all look like hate working here and will give you an attitude for asking for extra condiments or changing up an order. Also, the timing of their food seems to be inconsistent. They seem to lack communications with the kitchen staff and sometimes I'll receive food that I had forgotten I even ordered. Anyways, their food is pretty decent. I usually only come here for my dim sum cravings as this is where most of my friends prefer to eat dimsum at. There's usually always a wait during the weekends and I also really recommend going in small groups as they have a really small space. They also provide you with pictures on the menus incase you don't have a clue of what the items on the menu are called, aka good for people like me. Also, it's not like the other places in bellaire where they push the carts. You order through a sheet of paper that they pick up when you're ready. read more

Needed a dim sum fix yesterday, and since it was just me and one person we decided to stop by HK for some good, fresh, dim sum delights.... but that's not what we got, so what happened people????? First of all, I realize that it was very busy and we were lucky to even get a table, but what happened to the food and the quality? Maybe the usual chef was sick or on vacation, because the food that we had yesterday was not at all like the dim sum I've had there many times before. It was all "stale" tasting, and just not good. We ordered the usual suspects: ha gow or shrimp dumplings, shui mai or pork dumplings, wo guo or the little tarot root haystacks, lo ba ghow or turnip cakes, some tofu skin rolls, some pan fried potstickers, chinese broccoli, and some eggplant with shrimp. sorry I can't spell the words in Chinese, so I said them both ways. i just know how to order... and eat! Anyways.... Out of all of those dishes, only the the shrimp dumplings, the broccoli, and the fried potstickers tasted anywhere near fresh. The rest of the dishes were so disappointing! I hate to say anything negative about this place because it's always been a favorite of mine, but golly-gee this was not typical for them, at least not the many times I have been there before. I am truly hoping this was a bad day, or the chef was gone because that was not the HK Dim Sum I am used to. So hopefull next time I go, it's back to being really fresh and delicious like before. Just not sure when that will be though. In the meantime, I will probably just revert back to places that have never let me down: Fung's Kitchen and Kim Son Dim Sum. read more

This place is one of the better dim sum places in bellaire. It's a little hidden away but it's right next to juice box and nu cafe. Be prepared for a wait though especially during lunch. The crowd gets pretty packed during that time. Being an Asian restaurant don't expect to get good service. read more

The worst customer service I ever had. I don't really write a review about the restaurant but this restaurant made me really really mad. They yelled us when we asked about the soup flavor. Also something is wrong with variety of authentic dishes. read more

My bf always jokes that he has to make sure that I (being Cantonese) have my monthly dose of dim sum, or else I'd go mad... but seriously, I've got to have my dim sum! HK Dim Sum is a nice (and clean) joint that dishes out their food quickly and efficiently. Like many newer dim sum places, this restaurant is small and has their customers order dim sum by paper and pen, like what you'd see at a sushi bar. (I really miss the old-fashioned stainless steel steam carts being pushed around though... oh, the nostalgia!) Foodwise, the dim sum dishes are solid. Below are the dishes I normally order and the rating (out of 5) I'd give to each, when compared to other dim sum places I've tried over the past two decades or so: Har Gao (Steamed shrimp dumplings) - 4.0 Siu Mai (Steamed shrimp & pork dumplings) - 3.5 Ngau Yuk Siu Mai (Steamed beef dumplings) - 3.0 Law Bark Go (Steamed turnip cake) - 3.5 Ngau Yuk Cheung Fun (Steamed beef rice noodle) - 3.5 Ngau Bak Yip (Beef tripe with ginger & onion) - 4.5 Gai Lan Choy (Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce) - 4.0 Zha ha gao (Birds nest shrimp ball) - 4.0 Pricing's decent here, and wait time is fast. I always find myself ordering much more than what two people can eat (since I always have to get EVERYTHING), so if you go, it's usually smart to stick to the 2-3 plates/person rule. We ordered all of the above in one visit, and the two of us had enough leftovers to have for breakfast the next morning! read more

I was skeptical of the dimsum here when I first entered but I saw that the restaurant was pretty full of customers. Of course Fung's Kitchen or Kim Son are the first two options that come to mind when I think dimsum in Houston but HK Dim Sum has made its way onto my personal list. What is unique about this place is that their portions are larger than normal without a spike in prices. Everything is reasonably priced. I was particularly impressed by their shumai, usually I pass up this dish because they are small, however this was not the case for the shumai here. The shrimp rice noodle rolls were really yummy too with large shrimp inside compared to other places who put the smallest shrimp possible. read more

SO this is how Sunday was supposed to go: Dim Sum with two of my girls. Then it became Dim Sum with one of my girls LOL and then there was crazy non-vacancies in the Kim Son lot on Bellaire [the ENTIRE square was packed] So I called up my girl and said-- 'Should we try HK or would we have the same parking issues?' We ventured to HK Dim Sum. :) So we get to the Dun Huang shopping center and lo and behold PARKING. TONS. A miracle. We're ecstatic. Plus it's convenient because we planned on visiting FIT once the itis started to set in. =p Upon arrival at HK Dim Sum we go in to situate ourselves. We tell a friendly waiter it's just the two of us and he went to the door and gave us a slip of paper. I TOTALLY didn't see the paper or the clipboard. I felt a little bad. It was right on the door. So you wait until they call your number they have different slips for different party sizes and they will accomodate you based on which frees up first [fair enough] Of course we didn't know a: there were numbers for smaller tables/larger groups b: they sat you based on what freed up first LOL So when we heard B2 and we're A10 we panicked a little and thought, 'oh noes! did the skip us?' T.T At which point, the same friendly waiter explained the system. :) Cool points for such understanding waiters. :D So we're eyeing our competition er... which tables we were waiting on to leave lol Not many people go in groups of two so it was quite lucky Apparently, though, we came when EVERYONE wanted to eat LOL about 5-6 different sized groups waiting outside. Luckily seating didn't take more than 20 minutes. At Kim son wait times can go up to 45minutes+ We are seated. They have a picture menu for you (it doesn't have pictures of everything, but a good majority) and the menu where you tally your selections so we debate over which items we want. and they come and pick it up and start sending out your orders. We also order a pot of tea. ONTO THE FOOD Two of my favorites came out at the same time. Their egg custard is DIVINE. GET IT. The crust isn't the flakey style like most in the bakery but it's absolutely delicious like a little bite sized piece of heaven. My Fried Taro Puff (wu gau)... wasn't fresh T.T You know how you break it in the middle to let out some steam? No steam. Also, it was no longer crunchy on the outside so when I attempted to break it, it kind of just pushed down on itself. I was sad. That's my most favorite dim sum item. [egg custard are found at bakeries so I don't consider it a strictly dim sum item] These two: the egg custard (dan ta) and fried taro puff (wu gao) had 3 pieces each. The shu mai was pretty standard. No qualms we had the shrimp one and the shrimp with pork. These dishes have four pieces each. Turnip cake was tasty I could have sworn there was sweet sausage pieces in it :) nom! I forgot if we had two or three pieces but they were huge and enough for the two of us. We also had the stuffed eggplant. The first steaming hot dish we had so far. DELICIOUS. stuffed with shrimp We also ordered the salty fried bread [they cut it up into bite size pieces for you] also delicious but I'm sure it would have been more awesome if it was super duper hot when we got it. It was pretty good in the chili/soy sauce we mixed :) I'm sure it's best paired with coffee. AH and the last thing was a steamed bbq bun of sorts My girl wanted it I didn't remember ordering it so when it hit the table I said, 'that's ours?' LOL It was nice-- more like a meat paste in the middle kind of sweet. I like the bun best :) We couldn't finish it all. We had some of that last bun left over two pieces of shu mai, some bread pieces and a little turnip cake. all in all, including tea: less than $15/person. YEA. Isn't that awesome? EIGHT dishes, less than $15/person. I wish all the dishes [minus the egg tart dan ta] was served steaming hot. but outside of that-- and wishing I had ordered more of it [becuase it was THAT good]... it was good times at HK Dim Sum affordable, convenient, not a struggle to find parking, and we were sat in a reasonable amount of time. read more

The dim sum is very tasty. Love the pan fried pork and steamed dumplings of all kinds wife loves the spareribs . Only mark down is stuff all over floor and the parking here at times. But for dim sum newbies. Easy place to choose. read more

I'll start out with the good: Cheap prices, Birds nest shrimp ball, xiu mai The not so good: -A very poorly organized waiting list system. The hostess lost track of who was seated already. -No dim sum cart. :( That's the best thing about dim sum! -Almost everything we ordered was overly greasy. -It's a small restaurant, so not ideal for large groups. Not sure what the hype is all about. read more

And so the quest for the best dim sum place in Houston continues to HK Dim Sum this week... Unfortunately for me, another week brings another dissapointment, this time in the form of HK Dim Sum. Came here with the gf for breakfast around 10AM on a Sunday, and the place was decently full, which to me, usually is a good sign. First warning flag, the server asked us if we wanted tea, but not what kind of tea. Uh-oh (good sim sum houses always ask you what kind of tea you want, as opposed to, do you want tea). We ordered the sui mai, the har gow, seared turnip cake, shanghai dumpling, shrimp in rice roll, seared pork dumpling, and chicken feet. The sui mai was the best of the bunch, in that it was edible and your average sui mai. The har gow unfortunately was composed of some sort of shrimp filling that was super finely minced, which always makes me nervous as I can never be sure what kind of shrimp is in it (imitation, etc). I like my har gow to have shrimp pieces that I can identify. The shrimp rice roll came to the table uncut, and the soy sauce it was served with tasted burnt, without the sweet soy mixed in, which is a big minus in my book. The chicken feet had too much red sugar which blew out the other flavors, and the shanghai dumplings weren't soupy at all. Honestly, I would not come back here, as there are plenty of better options in the area for the same price (see Arco seafood). The service here was mediocre at best too, it took us almost 10 minutes to flag a server down... read more

First impression: ALWAYS packed, unless it's the awkward down-time around 3-5. The rest of the day, don't try your luck here if you're aiming for a quick lunch. Expect at least a 10-15 minute wait outside after taking a number from whoever is "managing" the wait line. But hey, it's worth it. HK Dim Sum is definitely one of the better quality dim sum joints down Chinatown as far as size of each piece, quality, flavor, and speedy table service once you get your order in. It's definitely worth its hype and the pricing isn't TOO ridiculous, as opposed to some other establishments As far as service goes, I'm going to say one thing and one thing only. You are in Chinatown. What do you expect? This isn't a P.F. Changs chain or Benihanas. You're coming here for the food. If you wanted good service, why even bother driving down Chinatown. The menu has a lot of variety, and by that I mean it has the standard long-list of dumplings, veggies, desserts, meats, seafood, noodle platters, etc. that any other dim sum place has. I always make it a point to order the mango pudding (comes in a cute heart shape too like most places) to finish off my lunch. Really good for groups, but try not to get more than a 4-top party because there are only one or two large round tables and typically you'll see families there. Parking in the plaza is always a pain in the butt during peak hours but you'll find one. read more

Good dim sum but fall short on the price. So over the weekend, my friends and I stopped by HK dim sum. I have yet to find a place here in Houston. Coming from the Bay Area, I had pretty good dim sum but it seems that I haven't had such luck here. This isn't your typical dim sum place with the carts going around. Rather, the restaurant is about the size of a family owned Chinese Restaurant. Instead of having carts going around, they give you a sheet of paper and you order what you want. There lies the good and the bad from this method. What i liked was how quick the turnaround for the dim sum was. After just a few minutes after we turned in our order, the dim sum arrive. It was really quick since it's probably steaming in the back. And most importantly, it was steaming hot!! this was great. Overall, the dim sum was good, i'd say two notches over 99 Ranch but that really isn't much to say. What i dislliked...the problem with the paper order vs. having the cart is that we ordered way more than we could eat. you're sitting there thinking about what you want to eat and all of the sudden, you've got tons of orders on your sheet and you think you can finish it all. WRONG! like i said, the turaround was really quick so before we knew it our table was filled with food!!! so good if you're hungry but quite overwhelming. this is really on us but be wary of this mistake. in addition, although it was piping hot when we got it, it quickly cooled off as we couldn't catch up with the food. so by the time we were half way there, half the dumpling were getting hard on us...again don't order too much. The other thing that wasn't as pleasant was the price. This place was about $1 more per dish than most dim sum places i've had before. so be ready for some sticker shock when you walk out. all in all, we could have avoided this mistake by ordering little and ordering more as we went. but it was our first time there and we made the mistake. in terms of the dim sum, nothing was relly stellar that i can think bout. it was decent and if you're in the mood for dim sum, this may hit the spot and your wallet! read more

Food is okay, prices comparable to other places. It is usually packed because it's a small place. Service members are unfriendly & hasty. They'll argue with you when you tell them the order is wrong. One in particular wore the blue gloves to serve food, to clean dirty table and to check people out at the cash register and then the same pair of gloves to prepare your drinks and touch your utensils, plate and food! THE SAME EXACT PAIR OF BLUE GLOVES!! for God knows how long. DISGUSTING! Won't come back. read more

LOVE this place!!! Both times I was here they like to rush the white people out though :-( Guess they only like their own kind. They were literally sitting people at our table as we were finishing our meal. The last time I went they decided I didnt need my last dish I ordered either. My brother comes alot and he laughed when I brought this up because the same thing happened to him except they brought his dish out in a TO GO BOX!!! Well--thanks--guess I will be leaving now--I can take a hint. But I will keep coming! So too bad HK :-) read more

Dim Sum any day! Any hour! (Well mornings to evenings)....So fun, except it's in a very small restaurant where tables are very close to each other or too close to the kitchen and counter....it's okay. It's hard to walk in there though if another person is up,, the walkway...very narrow. The food is yummy...we went on a Sunday at 11:15, and it seemed like we were the last ones to get a table before I saw two other couples waiting outside on the chairs, not too fear, I didn;t see them wait for more than 8-10 mintues. They only have soda, water, and tea really. Though I didn't get to try a lot of foods, everyone else at the table seemed to gobble down. It's the typical, most popular food you see at dim sum like Kim Son or Fung's, just not many; one thing different: it's not as greasy! Very less on grease! My two year old enjoys the porridge/congee.. The won-ton was okay, not too much flavor, although maybe that's good, could be less on sodium or too much water. I wasn't too positive, although it looked like there was minced shrimp inside. The bbq pork buns were so cute like a Japanese cartoonshow, and so delicious. The yellow custard buns and egg tart, of course were sweet and good. The shrimp lo mein (flat noodles), my 4yo nephew seemed to like a lot, prob the most greasy. The turnip cake (you can see alot on it) and shrimp dumplings (huge and like see through) everyone chowed down! The tripe, fried crab claw, shrimp roll, rice noodles rolls, and the chinese broccoli- everyone gobbled it all down, it seems as though we agree that it isn't as greasy as dim sum foods. We did have a table right next to the kitchen by the restroom so service wasnt; really bad, it was pretty good lol. Though there was no pen w/ the check. And only 1 restroom stall for each men and women, so tiny....you can expect the wait here and there. read more

They have good and fresh Dim Sum except staff is not the friendliest. It's a small place but very busy. I ordered Few items to go but wait time was very long. read more

Consistent and reliable dim sum. There's always a long wait on the weekend - so come early! They're also open all throughout the week from lunch through dinnertime. Who says you can't have dim sum for dinner? read more

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

Had a craving for dim sum today for lunch. I had the steamed pork and steamed shrimp dumplings. Service: I was greeted pretty quickly. If you see a spot grab one or just ask. It seemed either option was okay. Everyone understood English and spoke so you can understand if you don't speak Chinese. They take credit card so a stop at the ATM is not necessary:) Prices: medium: 3.99 and large: 4.99, pretty fair. Food: the menu had pics for their dim sum which is very helpful so you don't get the wrong thing. They came out timely and were steaming and very fresh. They are a good size and were very tasty. I noticed someone beside me ordered the sticky rice with Chinese sausage. It was delicately wrapped in banana leaves and looked incredible. I will be getting that next. Highly recommend this place to fellow dim sum lovers. read more

I was very weary trying a Dim Sum restaurant that serves all day long. I am used to traditional Dim Sum's that end around 3pm so this was going to be the test. The test on whether I would ever step back into this restaurant... Well...came in and got seated. The menus are great because they provide some pictures for those not familiar with dim sum. Good job! So went ahead and ordered...took a few minutes to get the food to us but understandable since it is made to order. Not a problem at all. So here comes the food...extremely hot and freshly made. Nice. Food is super tasty and the chicken feet is scrumptious. Nice. After finishing everything we ordered...the price was not bad at all. Nice again! Will I come back...for sure! Great restaurant to try out! read more

I come here with my family a lot. This is a small place that gets packed, especially on Sundays at lunch time. You order dim sum off the menu, they don't push a cart around. They carry all the traditional dim sum favorites. All of it is pretty good and consistent. Service is fast and friendly. I recommend this place but suggest you get here early for a table, if you have to wait, don't worry, it's worth it! read more

I like getting my dim sum here, but I don't love it. I have yet to find a dim sum place that blows me away so HK Dim Sum will do. This isn't a traditional dim sum restaurant so it's not an ideal place to take guests (the carts are so much funner!). This is a nice casual spot for lunch. The waiters aren't the friendliest and the tables are a little close to each other. The food here is somewhat consistent. On my visit yesterday, every dish was served hot and fresh. On a previous visit however, the food was not hot and tasted like it has been sitting out for awhile. It's best to come on a weekday because it's not too crowded (this place can get really packed). Overall, I would come back because I love their chicken feet and fried taro here. read more

Love this place!!! I love eating dim sum, and when I crave it at odd hours (besides Sunday morning), I tend to come here. It's not busy on weekdays, which is FINE by ME! I hate waiting. And I especially hate waiting there, as there's really no place to wait. You just stand on the corner like a cheap... I love getting the staples - shaomai, har gow, noodle rolls, gai lan (I actually had to look up the spellings -.-) , the turnip cake, and the yellow custard bun. YUM! The good thing about this place is that you know exactly what you're getting, since you order on a menu once you sit down. Just mark away! ---EDITED TO ADD when coming to eat here in June 24, 2013: They clean their tables with the old water used by the previous customer. -___- Only water. Nothing else. And our water - the water we used to drink. -__________- read more

This is your place if you like fresh dim sum. They don't push food in carts like traditional dim sum places, but instead, you order off a paper menu and they bring it to you steaming hot. Food is consistently excellent and fresh and comes out within minutes after ordering. Service is great! They are always happy to answer questions about the menu or offer recommendations and I never feel like they are rushing us to leave. The place is very small with maybe only one big round table, so it is not too comfortable for bigger parties. Expect to wait on weekends especially during lunch time, but it is worth it! read more

I have been to HK Dim Sum a few times now so I figured it was time for a review. HK Dim Sum is not your traditional dim sum with the cart being push around. You order off the menu and you get some yummy fresh tasting dim sum that is delivered to your table. For me since I am familiar with your typical dim sum dishes, I already know what I want/like. The food is excellent and fresh. I haven't had anything there that I have not enjoyed yet. Service is great and accommodating. I have 2 young kids and they have no problems accommodating me. Now there is only 3 high chairs here, so if there are other kids that are using the high chairs, you might not have one available to you. The place can get crowded really fast, especially on weekends. So plan accordingly. But this is one of my fave dim sum places for now.. Plus they serve dim sum the whole day.. what's not to love about that. read more

I found it here. I didn't know it is good. The Dim Sum was excellent. It is delicious. It is better than other Chinese restaurant. They were very friendly. They checked with us many times to see if we need anything. I definitely go back next time I go to Houston. read more

See all

Came for a snack before my massage on Christmas day (yay for hardworking asians) Ordered the shrimp dumplings, fried pork dumplings in sweet rice, and sticky rice with meat wrapped in banana leaves. -The shrimp dumplings were probably some of the best I've had. Super flavorful and very generous portion. -Fried pork dumplings in sweet rice... Dont rmr what it's called in Chinese, but it was wayyy too greasy. It kinda of tasted like it had been refried but something went really wrong and the oil just got soaked up by the sticky rice resulting in a sad, tepid, limp, oily mess. -sticky rice with meat wrapped in banana leaves were mediocre. Good flavor, but lacking in the amount of meat. Temperature was also sorta luke warm and just made me feel really sad when I ate it. In their defense it was Christmas and I should be grateful that they were open... But still... 3 stars read more

A great place that actually servers made-to-order Dim Sum after 5pm on Sundays! We visited HK Dim Sum on a Sunday around 8pm and we were so happy that they were still serving Dim Sum! You can order from the Dim Sum menu or off the regular menu. They have a good variety of Dim Sum items to choose from, incuding a few of our favorites; shrimp noodle, red bean sesame balls, steamed rice in lotus leaves, and all sorts of shumai (dumplings). We also ordered the crispy noodles (B3) from the menu, and it was outstanding! I also enjoy the curry rice noodles (B7).HK Dim Sum also got the "thumbs up" from some of our visiting friends, who are from Hong Kong! This place is usually quite crowded, but we must have just missed the dinner crowd. They are open until 9:30pm on Sundays. read more

I love dim sum, but honestly, I don't know many places on where to get it. I typically swear by Golden Palace, but my experience at HK Dim Sum wasn't too bad! Our group of ten didn't have to wait for a table, and the lack of carts really didn't bother me - I'm more interested in the food, anyway. All of our dishes (the standard fare: ha gao, siu mai, etc.) were decent, and the service was good. All in all, we spent $13 each, and we were sooooo full! This will be my go-to place when I'm craving dim sum during the off hours! read more

(Same place as HK Dim Sum) Incredible. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars was for the lack of ambiance. That's easy to overlook when you start eating. The food is AMAZING. The staff is VERY HELPFUL, and incredibly friendly!! I recently hosted a large group (9), consisting of 4 Hollywood Celebrities and a famous author, so the pressure was on to impress. The staff did not know them, yet they handled our large crowd with grace and efficiency - a testament to how good these folks at HK are! Not only that, but everyone at the table were ecstatic over how good the food is. A homerun, in my book. I will probably host VIPs in the future, and this place will one of my top recommendations. Job well done!! read more

The mention of dim sum sets my heart aflutter, so can you imagine what it does to me to actually eat a scrumptious dumpling? Although I am a Fung's Kitchen loyalist (largely due to their large selection and steam carts), HK Dim Sum is definately a contender for my heart. Their food is very authentic and, although not as many options as Fung's, was pretty darn good. The bad things about this place is that waiting is horribly unorganized (the waiter skipped me in line), tables are close together, and the table tops smell like someone spilled soya sauce on them and no one cleaned it up. The service was not that bad, but perhaps I was there on a good day. The waiters were attentive and, when I asked for lemons, the promptly arrived at my table versus at Fung's where I have to make numerous requests for them. Also, although I like the frenzy and authenticity of ordering from a steam tray whizzing by you, sometimes I can appreciate the calmness of just ordering from a menu, I will definitely return. This review is based solely on my personal experience and reflect my personal opinions. Your experience may be completely different. read more

My boyfriend and I was looking for a dim sum place and found HK Dim Sum. Upon arriving, we were given the menu and paper+pencil, however, they didn't show us how to order like they just assumed we knew how. It was pretty self explanatory, but it would've been nice to be asked. The food all came sporadically and the sesame red bean balls came first and they were super good/fresh! The dim sum we ordered was pretty good and then my boyfriend got the egg+beef with rice, where the egg and rice was good, but the beef was questionable (it didn't look like beef, taste like beef, and it was very spongy). We ended up not eating it. Lastly, a few of the servers were nice and always put up a smile, however, there was one server who saw we haven't put our to go boxes ready yet and she took it upon herself to put our food in the boxes for us without asking.
