I lived in the area long time ago and sometimes between 1993 and 1995 I ate here with my Chinese boyfriend very delicious Chinese food. I no longer live here but visit often. But this is a first time I went back to this restaurant and I wasn't disappointed. I was only 4 days in Hamburg and went twice to eat here. Chinese food is my favorite food and I live close to San Francisco where we have delicious Chinese food so for me the food has to be authentic. We had Duck both times and it was absolutely delicious! Will be back for sure. The restaurant is updated and has different owners. Everything wgreat! read more

There's a reason this Hamburg Chinese restaurant has such a large Chinese, Thai, Filipino clientele; it's the real deal done well. Reasonably priced lunch specials, good portions, tasty food, and comfortable seating are the pros. Don't let some of the surly staff or sublevel dwelling deter you. You're bound to leave feeling you have achieved preiswert! read more

Mei Moon - Duck Noodle Soup - Dim Sum Near Me - Hamburg, HH

We went during a weekday during lunch time & avail the lunch menu. It was not full, thus, we enjoyed a good service from them. They have a variety of dimsums to choose from. Choices for the main course is also very good. The menu have english translation/description in it and the waitress can speak mandarin. The prices are affordable. Each of the menu comes with a complimentary appetizer: soup -or- springroll. We enjoyed all the dishes (see submitted photos) and giving them all two thumbs up! The restaurant size is kinda small, but they do have two big round tables available for people coming in groups. Will definitely come back & will definitely recommend to others. read more

This restaurant exists since forever. The first time I came here I was still a kid. Since back then nothing has changed. The food is still the same, the seats and tables are the same. It's auhtentic chinese food and Dim Sum. I don't give it 4 stars, because yelp tells me "I'm a fan." which I'm not. I don't think any normal person would be a fan of a restaurant. I don't give it 5 stars, because it isn't as good as it gets. BUT I still highly recommend this place. It's good ;) And a lot of chinese eat here. The prove of quality. read more

Serves food til midnight every day of the week, including Sunday. Centrally located. Ordered 4 Dim Sum plates, two bowls of Hot and Sour soup and one plate of Chinese vegetables. My boyfriend had a beer. All for about 33 euros. Service was fast, friendly and the food came out quickly. The Dim Sum plates were fine. We got the steamed puns with pork, the pork and shrimp dlsteamed dumpling, fish balls and fried tofu. The only dish that was really great was the tofu. I wouldn't recommend the fish balls. The best part of the meal was the soup and the vegetables, but mostly the soup. It was a large portion and was the best version of Hot and Sour I've ever had. It's impressive when a place makes a classic exciting like that. And only for 2.60 euros a bowl. I'll be coming back here for a late night soup for sure. read more

Even without trying any other dim sum restaurants in Hamburg, I'm pretty sure Mei Moon will be our go-to place for dim sum. The hubby and I stopped in after an afternoon of shopping, so we were famished. It was barely 6pm, so I'd like to think we avoided the dinner crowd. The restaurant, though down a small, alley-like street, was not hard to find. You can't miss the red signage. Mei Moon wouldn't be a true Chinese restaurant if they didn't have a giant menu, and this they did have indeed. We stuck with just the dim sum menu and already that was about 40+ items. We ordered 7 items, all of which were super tasty. My favorites included: - Rice roll with BBQ pork - Shark fin dumplings - Prawn dumpling with leeks Probably one of the best parts about the meal was the chili oil. Seriously. It was spicy as heck and very fragrant. Very different, in a good way, than the chili oil I've had at home in SF. Service was friendly, food came out pretty fast and pricing is pretty on par with dim sum places in SF. We look forward to coming back to try the other non-dim-sum offerings. read more

This basic place across the street from Central Station is frequented by many Asians, which I would assume speaks for some authenticity. I was here for a late lunch - a roughly 10-11€ affair when you include a small drink. The spring roll I got was burnt and tasteless. The main dish was a little better, still unremarkable. At the lunch rate it beats all options at the station itself, but I would not have liked to pay dinner prices for this quality. If you like Indian food too, you'll probably have a better time at Badshah just a few houses up the street. read more

Amazing food in a warm, somewhat stuffy basement filled with Chinese people even on Tuesday night (always a good sign). Very good Dim Sum, Kai Lan with garlic, even the small spring rolls were perfect super crispy and fresh. This is REAL Chinese. I have had a lot of Chinese food over the years but this was certainly one of the best and I will certainly go here again on my next visit to Hamburg :) read more

Visit this place for authentic Cantonese Dim Sum, probably the best in town. This manifests itself with 90% of the dining guests being Chinese. The portions have European dimensions, the prices are fair. The staff is very friendly. read more

1. homeless could come in to beg for food while you are eating ( so environment is bad) 2. food quality --- bad ( I'm Asian, so maybe I'm too strict on the taste.) 3. cheap --- so I still go there from time to time. When it get better, I will reverse my review :) read more

Best Dim Sum in Hamburg Do not be scared of when having to go in basement. here the food is amazing Enjoy read more

Since I moved to Hamburg, I have been searching for the best dim sum place for my weekend "brunch", of which I have been doing for years back in my home country. and yes, I am Chinese. I have tried several restaurants, Mei Moon is the real authentic Cantonese one. The owner and chefs are Cantonese, and they have the best taste bud within the whole China. Each dim sum is handmade in house, instead of mass production frozen pieces, which u can buy in chinese supermarket. Highly recommended for people who crave for a good Cantonese yamcha. Thumbs up for the food. However interior and ambient is better at dim sum haus around the corner. read more

Wow is all I can say about this restaurant. The atmosphere was lively with an authentic Chinese feel. The food was absolutely fantastic, one of the best meals I've had in Hamburg. I cannot believe I've lived down the street for so long and not came here sooner. Be sure to call ahead because it was packed read more

Just had a very good 回锅肉 / twice cooked pork (around 9 EUR with rice included) here. Meat was so juicy and tender however, it was a little too saucy from what I've normally had in China. Food comes quickly, the staff is very nice and speak mandarin! Would def like to come back! read more

There really are NO DISGUSTING words that I could possibly muster to perfectly describe what a horrible place this was! From the get go the waiter was such crabby old man- I asked for hoisin sauce he looked at me like I was asking for marinara sauce! Later to give it time I asked for some ice to cool the €9 euro bottle of water that was room temperature & he literally rolled his eyes at me- Seriously? Ok whatever- just bring the dim sum out and be done with it- a few plates of mediocre fare later he brings out what should have been the highlight- Sticky rice wrapped in a lotus leaf- we carefully unwrapped the steamy hot item only to find what looked like a massive dung with no discernible rice grains to speak of- just a big brown turd of mush- still I dissected it as supposedly it contained chicken- which at the very center was a dried up tasteless chicken wing- bone in and just GROSS! I called the crabby old man over and lied that while we enjoyed the other items that this was just inedible- thank you please retire it from the table- which he did- I felt bad for having returned something so I asked for another small plate of dim sum to make up for it- but when the bill came to my surprise he had charged me for the lotus wrapped pile of ... and so I said to him- I'm sorry but you forgot to remove this from my bill- and he insisted that he would not take it off my bill that I HAD TO PAY! I was indignant at how utterly preposterous this was- I have rarely returned anything and when I have the service has been apologetic and settled quickly- the crab would not let up and the scene he was making in the restaurant had me on pins and needles- there's a price for dignity and it was obvious his was €6 euros! NEVER EAT HERE if you're in Hamburg! Try the Dim Sum Haus literally around the corner! Bon Appetit! Just NOT at the Mei Moon- read more

If you speak English or not that much German and have any needs that you want to communicate, this might not be the place. The staff did not understand what we asked for when saying "keine Milch", which should be pretty self explanatory.. They also forgot to give us our drinks. Food (when we finally managed to make an order) was good, though. read more

Very friendly waiters and pleasant atmosphere. Some Dim Sum were tasty, some you need to get used to. But if you didn't try out Dim Sum before, this place should be a good start. read more

I would not suggest this restaurant and will never ever go there again. The foods are not fresh at all and the waiters are very unfriendly. AND i, and my mother got a stomachache right after!! It might be the worst restaurant i have ever been in this world! read more

Not only the best Chinese food in Hamburg, but the best ethnic restaurant thus far in the city! Being Chinese and from California, I'm very picky in regards to ethnic cuisine - especially anything Asian. I've now tried a handful of Asian places in Hamburg and have been sorely disappointed each and every time. Either it's been Germanic interpretations of Asian food, or Asian simply not done right. With that kept in mind, Mei Moon was an incredibly nice surprise! The restaurant has a very extensive menu, but mixed in are quite authentic dishes. The dim sum items were great - very fresh, made to order, served piping hot, and seasoned just right. Service was very good - the wait staff spoke perfect German, English, and Chinese. The atmosphere was like any Chinese restaurant stereotyped, but very clean nonetheless. This will be my go-to place from now on whenever that craving for good Chinese hits. read more

The food was great..but the service was really bad..when we were ordering,the waitress was really impatient and a little rude..she was in a hurry and basically ignored the details we were telling her..we ordered a large juice and a small one was served..when we asked about it,she said that they never serve large juices (the last time we were there, i ordered the exact same thing in a large size, so it does exists..and we actually witnessed another guest ordering the large one and actually managed to get it) and we ordered chicken with pikant sauce, which then was served as a suß sauer one. When asked about the mistake, the waitress said that she didn't mess up..it is what it is..it is pikant and suß sauer (beides) and that we can't order pikant OR suß sauer, which clearly was a lie because the last time we ordered the same menu,it was pikant OR suß sauer, not AND. It had no pikant taste at all. How stupid does she think we are though..Seems like she lied to stay out of trouble. ( we ate it anyway because we did't want to create any fuss) When paying,the waiter actually asked whether i was going to give a tip or not..i honestly said no, because i was dissappointed in the service..it wasn't like we expected red carpet treatment or anything..we just wanted what we ordered (and not being lied to). After i said no, the waiter actually gave me a grunt which i found quite rude. Anyhow, i honestly think that the food was undeniably great. I can't lie about that. But it is better not to come there on busy hours, because this might happen to you as well. Communicating was a little bit hard since they didn't speak much german or english. So getting the right order might take some time. Something they clearly don't have the patience for. read more
