    Delicious dim sum just a walk from my office. Traditional har gow, siu mai, Fung Jau, char siu bau, lo bak go. Appreciate the beautiful presentation.

    Some of the best Dimsum in Copenhagen. Reasonable prices and a cozy place. Some of their dishes are definitely just bought pre made but others are made from scratch

    Feels like the 1980's, but in a good way!

    Royal Garden is a lovely authentic Chinese restaurant in the center of Copenhagen. The dim sum here is a welcomed change of pace from Danish traditional dishes which is typically based around potatoes, pork, black bread and creamy sauces. Everything is made fresh to order so it's advisable to tell your waiter your order in full. Don't expect trendy or hip twists on the food here. We had the scallion pancakes, shu mai, steamed rice crepe with prawns and dark soy sauce, wonton soup and steamed pork riblets with black bean sauce. It was all delicious! And don't forget to accompany your meal with a pot of hot jasmine tea!

    Alrighty y'all - here's the deal. Do you love dim sum? Do you love food? Or maybe you've never tried dim sum but you're curious and want to go ahead and take the plunge? Look no further than here because this place is the real deal. Although it may be a little on the expensive side, I eat here fairly often and always leave with an incredibly full and happy stomach. This is a FANTASTIC place.

    Decent affordable dim sum, not a fan of the fried options, but we should've just picked other dumplings.

    I will admit that I was reluctant to go here when I saw the price of the dim sum. I have…read moreexperienced really amazing dim sum from NYC, LA and SF at affordable to moderate prices. I have also experienced opulent dim sum in Vegas with luxious ingredients. With a 119 DKK for 4 pieces of dim sum I was expecting Vegas quality and luxury. What I got was yes the best siu mai I have tasted in Europe (only other comparison was in Barcelona), but only mid anywhere else. We also ordered some Gaozi veggie which tasted super oily (not worth it). The stewed beef soup was good as well as the fried tofu with vegetables. If you go here, order from the sides, rice & noodles, and wok & pot of the menu. Boycott the dim sum sections entirely. I can't imagine living here and tolerating the price gouging. I went somewhere else for dim sum the next day. The siu mai was not as good (not less by much though) but I was also able to order the har gow and chicken feet plus a beef noodle. Go somewhere else for dim sum.

    Anytime I can try dim sum in a place where you'd least expect it, I'll always do it. This place had…read moreover 2,000 reviews on Google so I was excited to find out that it was a short bus ride from my hotel. Even though it's called Hidden Dim Sum, it was pretty easy to find. The restaurant was bright and quant, however the tables are meant for mostly parties of 2 with a few for up to 4. Coming from LA, I tried not to have high expectations, but I didn't expect to be this disappointed. We only ordered 4 items- the wok noodles were so bland that I had to add extra soy sauce, the toast bite was supposed to be shrimp toast but it looked and tasted more like a crispy sesame toast, the spicy dumplings was stuffed with peanuts which I didn't care for, the best dish was the green beans in black bean sauce which was on point but came out last when we were nearly done eating. I didn't take any pics because I wasn't planning on leaving a review, but after finding out that our disappointing meal was $118 USD, I changed my mind.

    Nope. Nope and nope…read more When it comes to dim sum, I believe the more authentic the better. We came here by accident since our favourite restaurant Royal Garden was closed for the summer and we simply had to eat dim sum. We read the "good" reviews as the fusion dim sum restaurant to be and we had our worries. The menu was mostly a set and the selection for a la carte wasn't that many and unlike most dim sum restaurants in teh whole world, you didn't get order paper with numbers and menu with pictures. Shoot me if this place is in Michelin recommended guide, this is just ain't right in my honest opinion. The way everything was served indicated that the meals weren't naturally shared among the guests as it would have in their native China. Meals were delivered prettily in ceramic plates or perfectly decorated bambo trays that beat the purpose of eating dimsum itself. We're paying for the garnish, mostly, considering the price is double of what we used to pay in ordinary (but delicious) dim sum restaurants in Copenhagen. While the taste wasn't that bad, we were skeptical about the whole thing, dim sum wasn't supposed to be about elegance, or was it? I personally think the taste is the most important of all and since dim sum is originally afternoon meals to be shared among friends or family, this place doesn't fit the ambience. Sorry, but "fusion" is just not me. The locals (Danes) might like it, but for Asians like me, it just ain't cutting it.

    The best Chinese restaurant in Copenhagen! It was the first time I eat here. I just love this…read moreplace! I like the way they served the food which aren't many Chinese restaurants serving food in that way. Small dish after dish, more like in a French restaurant, for me I found in this way you have more time to finish every dish, also you can get to eat them when they still fresh. The food they make just so delicious! The dumpling with salmon and dill is my favorite, never taste a dumpling with fish inside before, what a brilliant idea! Restaurant Dim Sum I would say it mixes with Chinese tradition way of cooking and a lot of new inspirations, I love when things happen like that, it makes the restaurant has it's own personality, that's the fun for going to a restaurant. Strongly recommended if you are a big fan of Chinese food and go to a fancy restaurant with a reasonable price!!

    In Copenhagen for only 2 nights on business (having never been here before) and I'm a little…read moreashamed to even be reviewing Fu Hao. My intent was to avail myself of all of the local Scandinavian food specialties to immerse myself in the culture of it all. On night 2, I couldn't take another meal of under-seasoned fish or rye bread. So, I did a search for ABS food (Anything But Scandinavian) and Fu Hao popped up. Like moth to flame, my dinner fate was sealed. Within 1 block of the central train station, this will be within walking distance of anyone staying around city center. It is on a quiet side street and has a fascinating mix of old Euro cement architecture with pictures of their dim sum menu on the windows. Around the area is a Little Asia neighborhood sporting a mix of other restaurants such as Thai and Japanese along with several Asian grocery stores. There were numerous bike food delivery people in and out of the place picking up while I ordered take away so they do a brisk take away business but the place was also completely full with patrons, both apparent tourists and locals alike with several tables of local Chinese patrons represented. It was so busy that when I stepped in to order, a woman got up from a table, took my order and sent it to the kitchen and later told me she doesn't even work there but she was there for dinner and knows the shop operators so well that she jumps in to assist them when they are in the weeds. It is that kind of place. She took my order, told me some history (the restaurant has been there operating for over 30 years) and then sat back down to finish her meal. That was a pretty awesome interaction. There is a full bar set up squeezed in above the cash register with a prominent Carlsberg beer tap, the obligatory waving good luck cat toy, and small Danish flag on display but no bar seats. The inside is small and compact, perhaps with enough tables and seats for up to 50 people all in. The menu had a full selection of dim sum offerings including some things I was surprised by such as tripe as well as pretty standard offerings you would find in most Chinese restaurants. The latter is what I would expect. The former is what impressed me as I would not think that full scale dim sum would be a hit with the locals (maybe they get sick of under seasoned fish too) but it must be and kudos to Fu Hao for being able to offer it so far from the motherland. The food was tasty and comforting to me. The dim sum is quite serviceable and I read the negative comments from others related to use of MSG by the kitchen. My answer to that is that MSG (stands for "Makes Sh*t Good") is a traditional and basic seasoning used throughout Asia. So while some disapprove of it, without it there is a degree of inauthenticity and that is a little like saying you are an aficionado of Chinese food but don't eat rice. It's incongruent. I found the food here to be pretty authentic which says something from the middle of Scandinavia. Copenhagen has a lot going for it but, in my opinion, world class native cuisine may not be on that list. Thank goodness though that they have Fu Hao (and other places like it) to keep their dining scene international and interesting. Would I eat from here again? Of course.

    Excellent Chinese food! We were visiting from the San Francisco Bay Area, where we have a large…read moreChinese population and are used to high quality dim sum and other Chinese dishes, and this was as good as anything there. More expensive than a neighborhood Chinese place in the US, but it seems like all restaurants are more expensive here.
