One of the first thing I really wanted to eat when we came to Vegas was get dim sum and I was searching around and this place seemed promising so we decided to come here. Staff here was actually very pleasant and accommodating, which I greatly appreciated! The restaurant was very spacious and can fit large parties of 6+ as well as small parties. So we did order ample stuff and I was surmised majority was savory and tasty to my liking! Congee - 5/5 it just hit st the right spot. Was perfectly hot and savory. I could probably eat 5 of those small bowls Tripe - 5/5 I just love the fattiness, chewy, and flavor it was cooked in. It also comes with daikon and that just hit the spot for some Chinese goodness Sticky rice - 4/5 there wasn't anything special and not much flavor, but great complement with other side dishes. Siu Mai - 5/5 we ended up order 3 orders and it came with 3 pieces. There are different types/options of siu Mai but we got the one with egg on top. It was to die for! Perfectly flavorful and the density of the inside filling was the perfect meat to wrap portion. Very filling as well Har Gow - 5/5 this must be one of their other popular dishes beside when we asked for more they ran out and didn't have any to bring us. It the outside was bouncy and the shrimp inside was juicy and savory. Bbq pot bun - 4/5 the bread was perfectly soft and pork was soft and just broke apart. However the taste was a bit too sweet for something I'm use to more savory. It should have a little sweetness, but this might've missed the mark. read more

KJ Dim Sum & Seafood is located in the Rio Casino/Hotel in the Food Hall Area. I thought this looked like a nice place with the table clothes on the tables. I thought this would be much better than the awful food I tried yesterday in the food court. We came in and I intended to order off the menu. The hostess doesn't offer a menu but my husband asks for menus so she gives us one menu to share. They don't have servers here. They have people pushing carts around you. We decide we will just try stuff from the carts. The first plate sounds good chicken rice. Then before I even try the chicken rice another cart comes by and we take a few plates (shrimp balls, Asian broccoli, vegetable chow mein, vegetable spring rolls) I try the chicken rice. I can't eat it because I don't like the way it tastes. We have all these plates and NOBODY OFFERS US A BEVERAGE. My husband gets up and says I will get a beverage. After that someone brings by a pot of hot tea. My husband asks for water. A male brings over two glasses of water. Mine is ok but my husband's glass of water has BLACK THINGS FLOATING in it. WOW! is he mad. He gets up and shows someone his water. Not right away but several minutes latter he does get another water that looks better. BTW- the tea here is not filtered and hot tea here also has tea leaves floating all over. Then I try a vegetable spring roll. Oddly they serve them cold here. They are cold and paste-tee inside. The only plate that I tried that was good was the plain steamed Asian Broccoli. It was crisp fresh and warm. My husband liked the taste of the shrimp balls but they were served cold and he thought it was possible that he might get sick from them. Getting back to me I ate the steamed broccoli and the vegetable chow mein. I thought the vegetable chow mein was kinda odd because it was dry and some of the noodles were crunchy. To me it wasn't so great but I ate it anyway. I thought the sesame balls looked good so I did try them. I thought they'd be filled with sweet bean paste. I've also had them filled with fruit. These were different than from other places. The dough is squishy wet. I am not sure what the sweetened filling was. They might have had some other things that maybe I would try but some of the people pushing carts ignored us like we were invisible. (Like what looked like the soup cart) If you don't mind feeling unwelcome in a restaurant then maybe you won't mind trying this place? We also had to ask on how to pay. read more

We got Beef with Broccoli and Kung Pow Chicken. We also got Pork Fried rice. The beef didn't have much sauce and was bland. The chicken was the same, not much flavor. The pork fried rice was mostly rice, was very hard to find any pork. We asked for sweet and sour and hot mustard sauces for the 2 egg rolls, both were so watered down, it would not even stay on the egg roll. We won't ever eat here again. Over priced, under seasoned and watered down food. read more

I used to like this place because of the dim sum and their house chili sauce ( complementary) Now the use the generic oelek brand chili. Sad read more

Come here lol the time all these years, but never write a review about it even though I posted tons of food pictures of their food. Hands down my favorite dim sum brunch spot due to its spacious and comfy interior design and way parking. We had so many business banquets here for Asian holidays, and it always delivers great ambience and great food. The service here is efficient and attentive, everyone is friendly, especially the manger, Yan. So many dishes I love here, sum up some must orders: Chaozhou rice soup, scallion ginger chicken, deep fried whole fish, truffle chicken, pork belly, salt and pepper pork chop, and ginseng soup etc. You can't go wrong with dim sum, but their egg yolk buns, beef stew, chicken feet, and sticky rice wrapped in banana leaves are scrumptious comparing to other dim sum places in town. You can also call days ahead to preorder the live seafood, such as whole fish, lobster, crabs, abalones. read more

Attended this restaurant as my friends had gotten married here for their ceremony and their reception. KJ had provided the food and the service. I actually enjoy it myself and the food. On the menu there was cured meats and jellyfish, soup, bok choy with abalone and shiitake mushrooms, baked lobster, seafood fried rice, roasted duck with buns, steamed fish with ginger, and for dessert red bean soup. I liked everything for the most part except for the red bean soup. I did think that between courses they were bringing out pretty fast but I found that it was hard to fit the dishes on the table. Probably because they wanted to keep it out as fresh and hot as possible. The venue was pretty big and the wedding took up half of the restaurant. That had your typical Chinese Asian Flair for decoration read more

I love dim sum, but unfortunately KJ dim sum misses the mark by a long shot IMHO. The chicken feet is not the typical flavors you'll find in the 626/SGV area, nor is the salted egg buns (skip). read more

The Dim sum is great. On hot carts and steaming! I ordered an ala cart Turnip cake that was great. All the standards and even Almond Tofu pudding. Great friendly staff. read more

Shrimp was huge and amazing! I'd highly recommend Singapore noodles and pan fried shrimp.

I was first skeptical about this place because of the reviews but it was right downstairs and easy to go since we were staying at the Rio. We came around 10 am so it was not busy at all. But once it hit around 11-11:30 am, it got pretty busy. We got seated immediately and the food carts came out instantly. We got so many dishes like the pork siu mai, the shrimp dumplings, the hakao, the pork fried balls, chicken feet, shrimp rice paper roll, shrimp balls, pork bun, and tendon soup. Everything tasted delicious. We had to ask for the chili oil and the soy sauce. They brought out the hot tea which was nice. The restaurant was pretty big and had lots of tables for big parties. My favorite dish is the shrimp rice paper roll and the pork siu mai. I got full pretty quickly from all the food. Despite the reviews I thought this place was pretty good. read more

Best kept local dim sum secret place. I've been going this place for years. We were greeted and seated right away. There's Chinese ladies pushing carts around offering fresh dim sum from steaming carts. A separate waiter will come to our table and offer drinks and hot tea. Prices are comparable to most places and for the portions you can't go wrong. We ordered pork buns, pork stuffed "football" which is a gummy flour concoction stuffed with ground pork and mushroom that is crispy outside. We also ordered chicken feet, tripe stew with white radish, egg custard, steamed sticky rice with pork and mushroom, and soft tofu with sugar for dessert. read more

KJ Dim Sum & Seafood Located on the Westside of the Rio Casino, plenty of parking and good size restaurant for dining or banquets. Ate here for a Red Egg Lunch a couple months ago, they did a very nice job accommodating a large party, service was good and the ambiance is typical Chinese restaurant with loud chattering, but one thing is if there are alot of Asians in the restaurant, must be appealing to Asians who are generally very particular. Dim Sum takeout Pork Siu Mai were good size and good Baked Char Siu Bao maybe on the smaller side with average amount of filling meat, usually one of my go to Dim sum items, these are not bad, not the best that I have had. Egg Custard Tarts are good and above average Shrimp Dumplings Har Gaw are done well, we just prefer Sui Mai more. Heard this is a local preferred Dim Sum place to dine, hangout and socalize read more

Family dim sum lunch, we all met at 10 to get a table when they opened. There were 12 of us so we needed a large table and it was nice the round tables have a large lazy Susan on the table to get the food and drinks in everyone's reach. Service is not the greatest but the servers push the carts around constantly so you can get food fairly quickly. They also have a full menu available if you want to order items not in the dim sum carts. Tons of items on the menu and carts, I have no idea what most of them were, I just found something that looked good and ordered it, and if it was good got more when they came around again. Enjoy the pics and KJ Dim Sum is worth a visit if you have never been. KJ Dim Sum located in the Rio Hotel and Casino is open from 10am to 10pm daily. Pricing is roughly $20-30 per person based on what you order. Large restaurant with plenty of seating and they can accommodate larger parties if you check in with the host. read more

Had a very nice lunch here with a party of five. Located in the Rio Casino, KJ serves delicious Dim Sum and ala cart entrees. Service is outstanding, they are friendly and helpful. If you are at the Rio this is a tasty food choice to try. Highly recommend. read more

After picking up my family from the airport, and knowing they'd be hungry, I decided to take them to KJ which opens at 10 am, unlike other places that open later in the morning. Because we came early, we received instant attention --- guess that's the secret. We were so happy to be seated promptly. And within seconds (!) we were surrounded by several people pushing carts with various delicacies to choose from. Others were carrying trays. It was challenging to stop getting more plates of goodies because there were so many to choose from. We chose: siomai, stuffed eggplant, stuffed green pepper, sticky rice in taro leaves, chives and shrimp dumpling, sesame seed balls, etc. Can't remember everything we had, but suffice it to say that we thought every single order was absolutely delicious. This is located at the Rio Casino. It was a short walk from the parking to the side entrance where KJ is the first restaurant we saw upon entering. We also liked the idea that there was no hassle parking, and that parking was free --- a huge deal especially since many resort casinos charge for parking. The less money spent on parking, the more money for food :) read more

I stayed at the Rio for two consecutive weekends because they offered me an excellent deal including a $25/night dining credit. Easy enough to use, just tell them to charge it to your room. I ate at KJ Dim Sum & Seafood three times for dim sum during those two weekends. I've had dim sum everywhere from Flushing, NY to Rowland Heights, CA. Places with heavy Asian populations and I find KJ to be quite comparable. Even though they're in a casino resort, it gives off the vibes of an old school dim sum house. Yes, they serve from the traditional dim sum carts that you can pick and choose any dish. You can also request specific items you don't see and they will make it fresh from the kitchen! They remembered me after the second visit and already knew what I liked which was a nice touch. Pan Fried Pork Shrimp and Chive Dumpling - This was fresh from the kitchen and one of my favorites. Deep Fried Pork Dumpling (Ham Sui Gok) - I get this at every dim sum place and on two visits, I didn't see it but they made it fresh for me when I requested it. It is the best served fresh. Crispy outside, mochi like inside and stuffed with minced pork. So good! Sticky Rice Lotus Leaves - Another one I get at every dim sum place and they make it the way I like. It has minced pork, Chinese sausage, salted duck egg yolk all inside sticky rice and wrapped with lotus leaves before being steamed. The flavors mesh wonderfully. Congee - Thousand year egg and minced pork topped with fried cruller and green onion. I like getting this to pair with all the other dishes because it helps balance the saltiness of everything else. Pork Siu Mai - A classic and they do it well! On one visit the table next to me kept ordering this over and over again. They charge depending on dish size which are all categorized by S, M, or L and is a set price for each size. When you get a dish, they stamp the corresponding size on a sheet which is added up at the end. I dined solo so got four dishes each time. 2 M and 2 L came out to just under $25 which is a great deal! I will happily return here on my future Vegas trips. read more

Went to this restaurant for the dim sum. When I asked for a dim sum menu I was told the dim sum was only in the morning from 10 am to 3 pm. Needless to say, I was greatly disappointed! We decided to stay and ordered from the menu, egg flower soup, chicken chow mein, sweet n sour chicken, and white rice, which quite often comes with the protein order at most places...it was $3. extra. The soup was perfectly piping hot with some tofu, mushrooms, and peas, delicious! The sweet n sour chicken was so flavorful with just the right amount of green and red peppers, sweet onions and pineapple, also very delicious! The chicken chow mein was not skimpy on the chicken. Prices are slightly higher than a restaurant not in a hotel but I must say that the food was fresh and everything was tasty. The place is large with white linen on the tables, beautiful pictures on the walls and a few TV's throughout. I regret not taking pictures of the food but trust me it was all good! read more

I always love the dimsum here. Food is well priced and fresh. Its usually not busy or a long wait which is a plus

Typical dim sum located on the strip and definitely hits the spot after a night of drinking. For my fellow veggies, there are some veg options, nothing phenomenal but hit the spot. My friends enjoyed a variety of their dishes including shumai, shrimp rolls and pork buns. read more

Came here to eat sun Sunday Dim Sum. Remembered how it tasted as this was the spot to go when they opened. Hot fresh food. Flavors on point. Don't know what happened after all these years. Their OG Chinese spot in Chinatown was the spot to go- for Chinese food, late night. On the other- food kinda turned the opposite way. Quality and taste wasn't what like I remembered. Even price spiked up 30%. May be the economy and inflation. Overall. Standard dim sum, some hits, some missed. Egg yolk bun was good. And the shrimp wrapped in rice noodle. That's lol that stood out from everything we ordered Steamed shrimp eggplant 4/5 Egg bun 5/5 Chinese broccoli 3/5 Shui Mai 3/5 Har gow 3/5 Tripe stew w/ daikon 3/5 Egg tart 3/5 Chicken feet 4/5 Coconut bun 2/5- the fake coconut flavor was pronounced Hot tea 5/5 Believe I ordered more, but forgot. Over $100 check for two Service was as expected from a dim sum spot, had to flag down certain items. And wave no to the rest of the plates being pushed on your table. Open area, lots of space.

I tried to order Mu Shu but they were out. The special wonton soup had a lot of stuff in it, but so flavorless it needed salt & pepper. The chicken with ginger was awful- a bowl of boiled chicken pieces, shredded ginger on the bottom, chopped green onion on top. Not breaded. Not seasoned. Not sauced. There was an attempt at a very thin sauce in the bottom of the bowl. It was entirely flavorless and I just didn't understand it. Also very expensive. I would never go back. read more

Located inside the Rio Hotel and Casino. I've been to this place multiple times. I noticed this time. It's not that busy. The food is absolutely fabulous. I can't wonder if it's not their service.

Ides that it's fabulous. read more

Left very disappointed. I got there on a Sunday around 1 p.m. Been to this restaurant many times and even one of the dim sum ladies recognized me. Food had no flavor. It was cold. What bugged me was at the end, the server came to me with a card reader and as I customized my tip, he immediately said to me, you use card, 3% charge. Why didn't you say that before I made change on tip. Tip starts at 18%. I handed him a $100 and he came back with all $5. Sorry, Buddy. I am not budging in. I tip at exactly 15%. Vert pushy young man, but if the service was there, sure. BUT IT WASN'T. read more

KJ Dim Sum is now my family's go-to dim sum spot in Las Vegas. Bonus you can gamble inside Rio after brunch! They still have the old school trolly carts where Asian ladies shove food in your face and ask you if you want it or not. Honestly love this about dim sum and sad to see it slowly dying across many dim sum places. Everything is really good here, and they have all the classics: chicken feet, siu mai, har gow, steam chinese broccoli, stir fried egg noodles, pork buns, pineapple buns, and the shrimp rice rolls are the delicious. Not my favorite chicken feet, but I like how tender the chicken feet is here. The rice rolls are also perfect in consistency and flavorful. I also never get egg noodles, but for some reason the egg noodles here are really good. Definitely my top dim sum spot in Vegas for now. read more

As soon as we sat we were bombarded by 2 service staff and they kept putting food on our table. Even if we said no they kept pushing. I have never experienced such a pushy service at dim sum. Usually it's people with carts and you ask as they go by. This place forces food on you. Their English is limited and the food was mediocre at best. Room temperature frozen dim sum tou can microwave at home for less. At least it would have been warm. Avoid this place. We both felt sick later too. read more

I came on an off day, so I felt the vibes were a little off because it was eerily strange to see the Rio hotel so empty. Nevertheless, the servers were really nice and I enjoyed the Mongolian beef. Hopefully I can try the dim sum next time. read more

Come here for the lava buns, but that's it. Although the food was hot, nothing was spectacular and the flavor of everything was just a spot off. I really wanted to like this place since I saw that I was somewhat popular and has been around for a while. The service was also awkward, with the steam cart lady ignoring us, while the fried food cart lady was almost over-attentive. The prices here were also a bit high for the quality. 10/10 for the lava buns and a 0/10 for everything else. read more

Be careful what you order because it's not what it says on the menu. I ordered the pork SPARERIBS and was giving pork chops, one guy said it's chops and another lady said that, THAT was their spareribs then proceeded to tell me that they are aware it's not right on the menu, horrible. When the bill came they charged us for beers that we didn't order and tried to say it was "rice" that we ordered. When you call a server over they kinda ignore you or just don't want to. Over all I don't recommend this place. read more

This was my first time eating at the one in the Rio, I had previously eaten at the one in Harrah's SoCal, and on both occasions have really enjoyed the food! The restaurant is conveniently located in the Rio right across from the new food court and open for quite a long time, from 10am-10pm. It is what I consider a typical Chinese restaurant ambiance with its large interior and red decor. The service was also in line with an authentic Chinese restaurant with fast efficient service and the food was rather tasty. This time I tried the shrimp balls and beef chow fun which came in a large portion with tons of beef. The flavors of both dishes were flavorful and were a very satisfying dinner. The prices were a little more on the expensive side (I.e. $3 for side of rice) but considering that it's in a hotel/casino, seems about on point. I hear the dim sum is also good so I will have to return to try it! read more

We went on a Saturday, and the place was pretty empty. The tables were plain, plates and utensils. No condiments for dim sum. You have specific server assigned to your table. You can't just ask any of the staffs, which was weird considering the place was empty. It took them forever to come over. She was nice about it though. The dim sums itself were nothing to brag about, pretty plain, normal. They have a few dishes that they hold onto and comes to the table, instead of the usual dim dim cart. We tried it, but will give other places a try as well read more

I honestly wasn't expecting KJ to serve food this delicious. I incorrectly assumed that a Chinese restaurant on the main floor of the Rio Hotel would be mediocre, inauthentic, or both. My friends and I were tight on time before heading to the nightclub, so we visited here for dinner out of convenience. Pork chop with spicy salt - my favorite dish out of the three. Crispy, delicious, and not overwhelmingly salty (which is common to miss the mark on). Sizzling beef - a great crowd pleaser; hard to go wrong and the first plate to become empty at our table. Beef chow rice noodles - I was skeptical at first since it didn't appear very appetizing. The black bean sauce is lathered over the entire dish and looked like a dark brown blob. However, I can confirm that it tastes way better than it looks. The sauce adds a nice savory taste to the noodles. When we walked in on Saturday night at 9:15PM, there were plenty of tables open. The entire room is designed in a format typically seen in traditional family-style Chinese restaurants with beautiful red carpets and rotating round tables for large groups. I wouldn't mind paying this restaurant another visit if I'm craving Chinese food at the Rio. read more

Visited KJ twice during my stay at the Rio. The breakfast dim sum was delicious. Ladies with carts of dim sum came around and introduced their offerings to you, and you can pick what you want to eat. They were always around and easy to flag down to refill your table and stomach. The dim sum was hot and delicious. The chicken feet was the most tender chicken feet I have ever had. The dinner menu has more traditional stir-fry Chinese dishes. We shared three dishes amongst 5 of us and it was enough food to fill us. The beef on a hot skillet was my favorite. Very flavorful with veggies all around. Truly hard to say if breakfast or dinner was my favorite, but easy to say I will be back next time. Servers were friendly and made me and my friends feel welcome. The room is very big and we never had to wait for a table. Definitely recommend checking it out! read more

This place was absolutely phenomenal!! My best friend and I came to check in and we needed some time to kill. Our hungry stomachs led us to this place. I haven't had dim sum in a while so I was pleasantly impressed with the experience of it all. The moment we were seated, the carts came for us! These lovely ladies asking if we wanted this or that. Buns, noodles, dumplings, rice, and hot pot galore! Everyone was so kind when we politely declined our ever flowing table of steaming hot plates ! Hahah. We got the chicken fried rice, shrimp dumplings, what I think was a pork shumai topped with scallops (SO GOOD), veggie egg rolls, and steamed pork buns. These were delicious! All and every one of them. The place started off quiet and quickly packed up the closer it got to 12! I would totally come here again if I ever find myself in Vegas once more. read more
