Was craving dim sum and saw this was nearby the park we were at. Pleasantly surprised by the prices though! Dim sum has become an expensive endeavor at a lot of places these days, so glad to see an affordable spot. There's no push carts here, so everything is made to order, so you won't get the instant gratification of smelling scents and getting a ticket marked and food on the table, but I rather get it fresh every time. We got a ton of the classics: shu mai, rice rolls, beef flat noodle, taro dumplings, radish cake, sticky rice. All were honestly average - nothing that will blow your socks off, but texture is good, seasoning maybe a bit on the lighter side, but you can fix that yourself with the chili sauce and soy sauce at the table. But without having to wait super long for a table and fresh food, it does its job. Saw some others get buns and peking duck and those looked good, so would come back to try that. read more

The food is pretty good and the variety is great, but the real draw is the value. Zhang's Kitchen has immense portions and reasonable prices that keep me coming back. Service isn't bad but you will need to get the server's attention when you need to order, but that is common enough. The Décor is on the dingy side, but this place is for the mouth, not the eyes. read more

We recently had dinner here with friends and came to eat the Peking duck specifically, among other dishes. I thought the duck was excellent good portions and I love the fact that they used the Chinese tortillas instead of the fat white Bao that many other Dallas Chinese restaurants use for Peking duck. That's not the style that I grew up with.. Overall, enjoyable meal, will be back for sure! read more

Came in on Christmas Eve with some friends on a whim and enjoyed some amazing dumplings egg rolls and stir fry. The restaurant is brightly lit and the customer service was curt and to the point. Place is also BYOB too which we participated in. When it comes the dumplings, I'd call them grandma style meaning they're not like Michelin rated but more comforting and tastes like someone's grandma made em, and saying that as a total compliment. The shrimp dumplings were very shrimpy and the texture on the wrapper was really nice. The soup dumplings had a lovely broth inside. The pork and chive dumplings were delicious with the table side chili oil. My wife said her egg rolls were the best she's had in a real long time. The Szechuan chicken was a little under seasoned but the sauce and texture on the chicken was really nice. The sizzling beef with black bean sauce benefitted with a little extra soy sauce and chili oil but was very enjoyable. Overall a really nice experience. read more

Y'all it's been a while! I'm coming at you with another review! Today we will be vine checking Zhangs Kitchen. Now it's been a while since I've had dims sum so of course you know I had to hit up the squad to come through and enjoy a meal. I have to tell you we definitely ordered a lot. When I say family style, this was the real deal. Food was good! Honestly I had better. All I gotta say is get the duck man. That thing came out with sparklers!! Will be back! read more

This place was packed and the staff was great! We knew it was excellent by the crowd that was there and the line out the door. We waited 40 mins to get seated on Sunday at 12:25. The dim sum was excellent as well as the Sizzling Beef Strips with Black Pepper Sauce!! And Kung Pao chicken. I didn't care for the bbq pork steamed buns. They were so busy they forgot the dumpling sauce and extra napkins. But happily brought them when asked. They don't serve any alcohol but they do serve really good food. I wouldn't recommend sitting in a booth bc it's way too small for four adults. There were alot of big family gatherings that had the spin table top to share all the dishes. read more

Found out that Zhang have the durian pastry as well so we decided to dine in here one Sunday. It was busy from the church crowd. Luckily, there was 1 booth available left at the time of our arrival. We ordered our usual plus some other items to try. It was decent and plentiful. Rey comparable to the other dimsum places I have been to. Definitely an addition to the rotation. read more

We arrived at 11:30 on a weekday, not too busy but by the time we left at 12:30, the place got busy. We're still in search of a good dim sum place, not this place! We order the usual dim sum stuff, the shrimp rice roll was too thick and not much flavor! The steamed spare ribs was a too big and not much of the black bean sauce flavor! The chicken feet had a nice flavor but it was not hot! The bbq steam buns were ok but the filling was too mushy! If you really want some dim sum, it's ok to try it! read more

This is a nice place to have dim sum. All dim sum dishes tasted good. The calamari had too thick of breading, and I didn't like much. The AC was not fully turned on and I was sweating sitting next to a window. I think all the authentic good tasting Chinese places have average 3 stars because the locals don't want others to come and taking up space. Also because those restaurants typically keep customers coming back because of the actual Chinese food, and not the service or ambiance. read more

Let me preface this review by saying I've had a LOT of dimsum. But this place is one of the best I've ever had. The Ambience is awesome for big parties like ours was tonight. The servers are so sweet and friendly! The portion sizes are GENEROUS. The flavors are out of this world. Try the eggplant and thank me later, guys! In fact, Try everything!! read more

I think this may the only all day dim sum in the area. (FYI no carts during the dinner service but I believe they have them at the normal lunch times on weekends.) Very solid dim sum with all the classics, plus a lot of variety in the a la carte menu. We thought the roast duck was very good. Good prices! We ordered a ton & it ended up being about $28 a person. read more

Tried Zhang's Kitchen for lunch today and really enjoyed the food. This casual, family-owned spot is tucked into a strip mall and serves comforting Chinese dishes and handcrafted dim sum. We loved the shu mai, shark fin dumplings, and crab and fish maw soup. They also sell frozen dim sum up front if you want to take some home. Just a heads-up, there's no dim sum cart service. You have to order everything through your server. Unfortunately, the service was the only downside. We were seated and then completely forgotten. We had to flag people down multiple times just to order. The food was great, but the service definitely needs some work. read more

Solid dim sum experience! We stopped by around 11:45 AM on a Sunday and it was about 80% full. For three adults and a child, the bill came to $120 (with tip), which feels on par for DFW. The flavors were right on point. The stir-fried flat noodles had that nice 'wok hei' (breath of the wok), and the beef stomach and tendon were flavorful. Durian puffs were also tasty. My only critique is the temperature--the congee was lukewarm and the veggies were a little cold. Overall, decent portions and a good meal. We'll definitely visit again. read more

Loved it! It's been a while since I've been to dim sum but I was looking for a place that had thinner outer layers and generous portions of filling and they totally lived up to it. My favorites were the ham sui gok, it was crispy but still chewy and not too thick and the fried taro which had a lovely crunch and didn't taste like a mouthful of starch. The service was so good too, we were checked up on constantly and they kept taking away all our empty dishes, which really helps when you're eating dim sum. They don't have cart service but I love that they have the paper marker type of ordering. Can't wait to go back! read more

Came for Din Sum. Staff is very nice but the dim sum is bland. Tried 4 different flavors. Some of the flavors didn't seem to have soup inside. The ones they did had bland soup. The meat was flavored just okay. The ambiance of the restaurant is nothing special and not much was invested in the decor. read more

Great and tasty food!! What else do you need?? The service was hood and the food too!

Okay, we've had mixed experiences here. Our food, this time, came out in reverse order (i.e. the dumpling last). The Singapore noodles and beef flat noodles did not come out together. It was properly was about an 8-10 minute waiting game. The Singapore noodles: 5/5 (these are absolutely amazing) Beef flat noodles: 4/5 (pretty good but not life altering & nowhere near as good as Uncle Zhou) Pork soup dumplings: 4/5 (most of the broth was absorbed into the dough by the time it got to us) Pork Shumai: 0/5 - these were essentially tough meatballs in a dumpling wrapper. Just not good. Service was clearly mediocre as they could not get our food out in order or stage placing the order so we would not get our entrees ahead of our dumplings. read more

Lo and behold; I've finally found a dim sum place I'm really really excited to go to. Pretty solid restaurant but will also be EXTREMELY packed during peak and rush times. The owner is super nice and personable with how she runs the place. Given anything and everything I'll make the 30 minute drive from uptown to this place. But let's go to the the review The hargow and schuimai (I'm terrible at spelling okay and I can't be bothered to correct it right now.) were super moist and flavorful. They didn't skimp on the fillings and were jammed packed with flavor. Ask for black vinegar if you can because it's more superior than the red. Turnip cakes were fried to a nice crispness and tender on the I side. Porridge - egg and pork is the staple for most congee. Quite delicious but I would prefer chunks instead of shredded, just my preference. Salt and pepper calamari was for sure best in show. Looked like turmeric in the batter that was seasoned. The spice was tantalizing. Super forward in flavor without being overwhelming. Durian fried rolls - pure durian pieces that were deep fried gave it a nice caramelized tone. Reminds me of the motherland of Thailand but a different twist. 10/10 bringing the husband here. The place will be packed and for sure loud when it's super busy. Don't forget to tip and make sure you do family style. read more

We go here almost every Sunday and it never disappoints. The fish fried rice, shrimp dumplings, and pork soup dumplings are some of the delicious orders we get. I would also recommend the shrimp rice flat noodle, it has been consistently delicious. Great service and they treat us like family. Would definitely recommend to eat here especially since the prices are quite fair! read more

I got lunch here with a friend and was pleasantly impressed by the food. Granted, I tried the vegetable dumplings ($10.95) and scallion pancakes ($5.25) which may not be representative of Chinese cuisine, but the food I got still tasted great. It took maybe 10 minutes for the food to arrive, and it was hot and tasted fresh. Service was good. Plenty of seating and parking available on a weekday. read more

Craving for some dim sum but wasn't looking to pay Kirin a visit so checked this place out. Prices were reasonable for Dallas. Ordered a variety of dim sum dishes and padded it with beef chow fun and HK styled beef with egg rice just in case I might still be hungry after the dim sum. I didn't get to try the beef with egg over rice since the boyfriend ate all of it, but he raved about it. The beef chow fun was good. Dim sum was also good. The ham sui gok was a little off for me though, it was undercooked or something. The turnip cake might've been my favorite for din sum though, so crispy! Service was a smidge slow but I didn't mind it since I got to sit and enjoy relaxing. It was like dining in European time. I'd be back sooner rather than later. read more

We liked the Singaporean fried noodle. And that's about it. We were actually sad as we have been looking forward to eating salt & pepper pork chop, but the way they prepare it is not with just salt & pepper, it had other spices which we did not like. The roast duck lacked flavor. Service was good. read more

first time visit in an area that I very rarely frequent. Chance of returning our slim. Very friendly service. Food was OK. One selling point is that it is BYOB. read more

I placed an order online through their website and when I arrived, they had no record of the order. I had an online confirmation, text message, and credit card transaction showing it went through. That's fine, not a huge deal. They made my order fresh and it took about 5-10 minutes. The customer service was friendly and they seemed attentive. My issue is with the food itself. I love the noodle rolls aka cheung fun that you get at dim sum places. They're hard to mess up, but this place successfully did it. I ordered the beef rice noodle and the fried dough rice noodle rolls and they were by far the worst I have ever had in my entire life. They were so disgusting I threw them in the trash. The noodle part was thick and oily. The beef was undercooked and a soggy mess. The fried dough was greasy. The soy sauce that you get with them was also absolutely terrible. The only redeeming thing about the place is that they're friendly, but I'm not spending money on crappy food just for friendly customer service. read more

It was good but the dumplings didn't come with any dipping sauce. So it was disappointing

Another Yelp success story. We were looking for Dim Sum during a visit to Plano and say the reviews for Zhang's. Located in a strip mall first impressions were underwhelming. The place was clean, but plain, light crowd on a weeknight. We were seated quickly by a very friendly staff. The menus was almost too much, but our server was there to help! We had soup dumplings, steamed dumplings, shrimp balls, noodles and orange chicken and it was all fantastic! The pork soup dumplings were out of this world! I've had them many places, but these were the best! We fed a party of three, still had to take some home and the cost was under $50. You can't beat that value. I have already recommended Zhangs to family and friends, check them out if you want some great food! read more

Wife and I were craving for dim sum and based on people on FB's recommendation; we picked Zhang's Kitchen. Excellent service, we selected our usual favorite: soup dumplings, Chinese broccoli, hot and sour soup, chicken steamed buns, shrimp rice rolls, deep fried meat dumplings, and taro cake (meant to order deep fried taro dumplings - just as well come to like if). Overall a very good experience, will definitely return with our children when they visit read more

FOOD - Pork Soup Dumplings - Fried Shrimp Ball - Crab and Shrimp Dumplings - BBQ Pork - Su Mai - Fried Rice - Hong Kong Style Roasted Duck - Shrimp with Lobster Sauce - Sizzling Beef Strips with Black Pepper Sauce There are a lot of dim sum options available. The dumplings were all pretty solid. All the food came out piping hot and stayed hot throughout which made them taste very good. The sizzling beef strips was well flavored but just a little bit more on the overly wet side. The roasted duck skin was super crispy which was very yum! Overall a pretty typical and traditional Asian dishes that are representative, well-seasoned and well flavored VIBES This place gives off very typical family-styled Asian restaurants. They pile on plastic table covers very thick which definitely doesn't add to the look but is efficient for the workers. The place is a little bit on the dirty side and there are huge flies that are throughout the store as well which is kind of :( SERVICE Service is eh. The lady only came for our orders and never checked on us throughout. The food came out fast though but a little disappointed that she never came to fill our drinks or ask how everything was. read more

Updated from last time we were there in 2024, much improved - the food was great and service good. We're glad as we had been regulars until a few unfortunate visits over the past couple years, and after our most recent visit, we expect to be back again soon read more

I understand the poor reviews now on my second visit. We spent $85 (not including tip) on our food and almost none of it was good. I did re-order the soup dumplings and shrimp balls I liked so much and found them to be pretty flavorless this time. I got a lot of dumplings, which were bland. I ordered Chinese broccoli with garlic sauce as an entree and it didn't taste like anything. My partner's sesame chicken was UNBELIEVABLY sweet. He was a trooper and ate probably five pieces but it was just not good. I left a couple of stars because of the impeccable service. The food just isn't good. I do still strongly recommend the sweet and sour chicken and Singapore noodles, and I wish I could try more entrees but I don't think I'll be coming back. read more

This place gets two thumbs up for being open Christmas Day! We were seated pretty quickly and could order all our favorites. We ordered hot tea for the table, comes with pot and 4 cups, and water glasses as well. The dishes we wanted: Snow pea sautéed in garlic, Singapore rice noodles (curry), beef flat noodles and custard bun! You can order dishes off the menu AND dimsum items off the paper menu. We love both options they have here. The staff is amazing, super nice and quick to respond. read more

Food was good but it definitely could've been better. I ordered the Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce, shrimp dumpling, phoenix claws, spare ribs with black bean, and shrimp rice noodles. The phoenix claws and spare ribs were great, lots of meat and super juicy and flavorful. The shrimp dumplings and rice noodles were pretty good, just a little bland. The Chinese broccoli was quite odd, the oyster sauce was put on the side in a little sauce bowl which made the broccoli not very flavorful since you had to mix it in or dip it yourself. The service was good, fast service when you first enter and the waitresses were sweet. It also had good vibes; this is definitely a good place to take a large group/family. Would definitely go back again. read more

In all my time on Yelp, I don't think I've ever left a one star review. Well, they say you never forget your first, and I won't be forgetting this one. If I could give them a 0 star, I would. When we arrived with a party of two, I was told the wait would be 10-15 minutes. We waited at least 30 minutes. If the wait is going to be closer to 30 minutes, don't tell me it's going to be 10-15. Once we were seated, we placed our order and proceeded to wait at least another 25-30 minutes before our dishes arrived. We ordered the usual Dim-Sum fare: pork shumai, the pork spareribs with black beans, the salted egg buns, the Phoenix claws, the durian puffs, shrimp rice noodle and beef stomach. We even got some special dishes like the beef shortribs, sharkfin dumplings, the beef rice noodles and the salt and pepper calamari. It was quite a bit of food but we were excited! Imagine our disappointment when the food arrived either cold, like the salted egg buns, the durian puffs and the shrimp rice noodle or just not tasting good like the salt and pepper calamari, the Phoenix claws, the pork spareribs with beans, and the beef rice noodle. For a place that claims everything is steamed to order, food should not be coming out cold. Even if the food had not been good but the service was great, I would not have rated this so low. While we were waiting for our food, we were not checked on or told that someone was checking on our food, nor was our water refilled while we were waiting. When we finally got our check, we were waiting forever for someone to come take our card. All in all, we were at the restaurant for almost 2 hours of which we felt half of it we spent waiting. Poor service, long wait times, and poor quality food as well. Overall, extremely disappointing. This meal also left us questioning the integrity of various Instagram foodie influencers who recommended this place. Did they actually eat the food or were they just paid to say nice things and take good photos/videos? And if they did taste it, were their taste buds knocked out by COVID or something? read more
