We visited this place with family. It was Taste : My order was Kung pao ji ding and dumbling. It was flavorful and portion size was just right. My wife ordered orange chicken, but it had too strong orange flavor and she couldn't eat. Not typical localized orange chicken, but extremely orange flavor. Service : It was Sunday around noon. It was probably short stuffed (wide inside but only 2 are serving). So it took some time we have our food and last bill as well. Overall, it was around 3.5. If orange chicken was good, 4. read more

Beware of this place. I have gotten poisoning from them more than once. I used to love their food but now I'm very hesitant about them. I wonder what their food safety score is.... read more

Came from Decatur to eat some dim sum and was very pleasantly surprised. Food was great; only compliant would be that there was hardly any broth in pork soup dumplings. We liked the fact that the workers didn't come check in on us as often as most restaurants would. Once all customers but us had left and it settled down, we noticed the staff sat down and ate together. A sentiment that we appreciate as we are Pacific Islanders. We came hungry but left with half of everything that we ordered. Great portions, great flavor, and decent pricing. We will be coming back with the family! read more

My wife and I came here for lunch. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was to be expected. It was nice to have a server who spoke Cantonese. We ordered the baked chicken, deep fried combination noodle, and ong-choy. And of course, bok-faan. We plan to come again read more

I had low expectations when I tried this place 1st time. But they exceeded my expectations. The food is good, portions are good, NOT overpriced, clean place, friendly staffs. Especially.... The chilly sauce is so good. Not the typical chinese chili oil sauce. Overall, I will be back to try other dishes. Keep up the good work. read more

Dim sum places are non-existent where I live, so driving to Plano and Richardson for Chinese pocket delights are a must. Zhang's Kitchen steps up the game by offering online ordering on their regular and dim sum menu, and it's an easy decision when cravings for Cantonese food hit you while you're in the neighborhood. On a recent visit, fried garlic ribs and yang chow fried rice were capably rendered. The snow pea leaves with mushrooms was excellently flavored as was the extra crispy fried pork chitterling, cooked as requested. General Tao's chicken was only ordinary, and the one misstep in the order was the Hong Kong style beef with egg...wasn't expecting the fried beef to be swimming in an egg sauce, so maybe a better menu description with pictures might have set better expectations. I didn't partake in the siu mei offerings this time, but made a note to try their bbq on the next visit. Overall, worth a visit if your preference of Chinese cuisine leans towards Cantonese food and you happen to be in the neighborhood! read more

Decided to give this place a go as it's nearby but wow, never again. My 'fresh orange chicken' wasn't sauced, at all. Literally chicken nuggets with a couple orange slices. At first I thought maybe they used a marinade or something in the batter. Nope, plain chicken. Scallion pancake was thick and doughy, no real flavor. read more

After learning about this place from Instagram and TikTok, we were excited to have the Dim Sum for lunch. I have to let you know that if this was my first time trying Dim Sum I would have to say I would never have it again. Thankfully, I will have it again but NOT here!!! The crab rangoon did not have any crab, neither imitation nor real nor did it have cream cheese (the staple of crab rangoon). The only way I could describe the filling is that it is sweet and like the filling you'd find in an eclair. None of the dumplings tasted like they should. Leaving hungry and disappointed. read more

Food is normally great. However the salted fish/chicken fried rice has gone down hill. This weekend we ordered x3. They seem to simply use plain diced fish now. Dish was bland & tasted like steam rice. When attempting to contact Zhangs via their website "contact page" AND email address listed...they don't follow up at all. Wow. read more

We were excited to try a dim sum place that doesn't require waiting on carts. Compared to JS Chen and other places, the service here is excellent. Other Asian restaurants should follow them! The shu mai was good. The tea was fresh. We did not like the wrapping on the Singapore noodles with shrimp. Tasted like fry pho noodles. They were a bit dry. The har gow was the same. The shrimp was as tender but the wrapping underwhelming. The sesame balls were excellent. read more

I will always have a soft spot for Zhang's! If we don't want to deal with a wait or a crazy busy crowd for dim sum, we come here! Just remember, it's rare they have the push carts. You get a check list of the dim sum items and place in your order --you'll wait a bit longer, but still good. read more

We were very disappointed when Covid caused the closing of our favorite dim sum restaurant. Now they are back we are very happy. We miss the cart style service but the food is still as good as before. We love Ivy and her sister. They are friendly and always remembers their customers! Heading back there on Sunday read more

Absolutely fantastic Chinese food. We got at least once a month. You can't go wrong here. Staff is wonderful.

Food is delicious! They also serve dim sum every day. No need to travel to Richardson or Carrollton. Try the eggplant stuffed with shrimp.

My girlfriend and I came for dim sum for lunch on Saturday. We had a great meal! The restaurant is very clean and nicely decorated. For dim sum we ordered off a menu by marking with a pen. No cart. They brought the food out in waves. The salt and pepper calamari was delicious. We had some bbq buns and their house special dumplings were also excellent. The food did not come out super quick but it was very much worth the wait. read more

Can't compare to Kirin Court. Dim Sum ok just ok. Everything was a little too salty, Dim Sum menu was confusing, service was ok. Even JS Barbecue, in spite of their terrible attitude, is better tasting food. Sorry Zhang's Kitchen, we wanted to love our visit but it just didn't happen. read more

Very mediocre food. Very Americanized, dim sum is order, not carts. Scallion pancake was the only semi authentic thing we ordered. Was 3:00 in the afternoon and not busy and service was lacking. Unfortunately, won't return read more

The restaurant is one of my mom's favorite place to go and ordered with our entire family.

Love this place. Every time I come the staff is super friendly and get a table right away. I'll recommend to order green tea and some dim sum to start. You must have the soft shell crab fried rice. It's delicious! read more

Delicious food, amazing Dim Sum options-- One of our all time favs!!! If you are into authentic cuisine, I highly recommend. *Fried Shrimp Balls & Sesame Balls are a MUST from the Dim Sum Menu! read more

I've visited this restaurant on a number of occasions. It is a family owned establishment that serves Cantonese Chinese food and offers Dim Sum by order on the weekdays and by cart on the weekends. The ambience is relaxed and the decor is colorful and festive. I like the white paper lined table cloths, my son usually draws on them or plays tick tack toe which keeps him occupied while we order food. I have tried multiple dishes, the ones that I like the most are: Vegetable Fried Rice- not your typical fried rice, no frozen peas and corn here! The rice has a nice presentation, it is very colorful, not overly oily, and is loaded with fresh tasting veggies such as bok choy, zucchini, and carrots. My entire family loves this rice, even one of my kiddos who doesn't like zucchini, but will eat it in this rice. Peking Duck- I love the presentation of this dish too. The duck is sliced with the skin placed on top. The other parts of the duck are served in the marinade, which is absolutely delicious. The green onion is served curly with slivered cucumbers and sauce. Steamed buns also accompany this dish. Salt and Pepper Calamari- I love the flavor of this dish, it rocks! The calamari is nice and crispy and the salt and pepper seasoning adds a unique flavor to this dish! Various Dim Sum- Too many to name, but a few of my favorites are: Phoenix claws (chicken feet) very flavorful and tender. Pork and Shrimp dumplings- hold together and are tasty, Soup Dumplings- the mixture inside is very delicious, but the only downside is that the soup has a tendency to leak out, but overall it is still good! There hasn't been one person who I've brought here who hasn't enjoyed the food. My father came to visit and I took him here and he fell in love with the veggie-fried rice. This is definitely one of my favorite Chinese food places to go to with family and friends! The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is as with most mom and pop places the service could be spotty and inconsistent depending on when you visit. read more

We read multiple positive reviews for Zhang's Kitchen so figured we would try out their dim sum. We were very disappointed with the food. The two waitresses were friendly and the food came out quickly. Their dim sum is not traditional as you order from a menu rather than selecting what you want from a cart. The beef rice noodles consisted of old noodles wrapped around barely touched unseasoned ground beef and soy sauce & vinegar poured on top. We ordered the fried bean curd skin expecting it to be only the bean curd skin rolled and deep fried since no where on the menu did it state otherwise. They came out filled with shrimp which we do not eat. We asked if they could make us some without shrimp and the waitress told us that they are premade. She did not offer to remove the charge from our ticket nor to replace it with something else even as we finished up - leaving the uneaten dish sitting on the table. While these two dishes disappointed us, my husband and daughter did enjoy the salt and pepper fish which helped them to leave without still being hungry. read more

Sad to have to give them a 1 rating. I came in close to 12 noon and they had a party on two big tables they were serving. I have been waiting for a half hour with not even an apology until I asked how much longer. All I got was they were swamped and that I have to wait. If you are a restaurant and cannot handle a few restaurant then you should not be open. Finally my food came and it was just average. I think they must have lost their chef because the food was much better before. So disappointing to see this place go down hill. read more

Dimsum is mediocre here but the soft shell crab fried rice was actually good. I'd recommend getting it. Service can be slow just a heads up when you enter but the staff is kind here. read more

One of the few places that offers Dim Sum ALL DAY. If you come during dinner time, you can order dim sum and they'll steam it fresh. Of course, you can still come on the weekend during lunch and get the dim sum cart experience. I tried many many dim sum dishes, the bbq, and also came here for dinner and tried that non dim sum items as well. Everything was great; none of the dishes disappointed. The roast duck was super tender and juicy, the seasoning was perfect. The crispy pork was also nice and crispy for the most part, a few pieces were soggy for some reason. Overall - Price is good, food is great, and service is good. Would not hesitate to come back anytime. My picks: salt and pepper shrimp, roast duck, honeycomb tripe. read more

Dad asked me to pick a restaurant for us to eat at for Chinese New Year, so I hopped on Yelp to help me make a decision. I noticed the "Hot and New" rating here and decided to take us since I'd been craving dimsum; my dad had actually been to this place when it was still JS Chen so he was interested in trying the new establishment out. I called ahead on Saturday morning and was greeted by Cherry who took us down for a reservation of four at 11:30. There were several tables already being served as we arrived and were seated, and the wait line started forming not long after, so be aware of that on the weekends! The interior was remodeled and is very clean and bright. Some of the tables are pretty close together but for our purposes it was fine. We ordered from the dimsum carts as they came around; they had a wide variety of dishes. My favorites were the tofu skin pork wrap (super flavorful and the texture of the tofu skin was excellent), the turnip cake (perfectly fried, crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside, ask for a side of hoisin sauce!), and the stuffed eggplant, but everything we tried was good! One thing was that because it was so busy, it took them a while to come by to refill our waters, and we had to remind them of our turnip cake and stuffed eggplant orders a couple of times. The food was satisfying enough that it didn't really detract from our overall experience, though. My dad really enjoyed the spicy chicken feet and my brother really liked the shark meat dumplings as well as the beef spare ribs. The next time we're craving dimsum close to home, we will definitely be back! read more

Very traditional, love their wide spread in the menu. We originally planned to get dim sum, and took a peek at the menu and was amazed. Big party of 6 probably being your limit. Everything is in amazing portion love to share and was very filling. Food: 8.5/10 Over all 8/10 Improvements: add a little more spice, when saying spicy. read more

I found out that this JS Chen's is now Zhang's Kitchen and they have Dim Sums all day, so I went there to try. Besides, I wanted to check out the new menu. I ordered salt and pepper shrimp from the Dim Sum menu and it was huge and so good. I also ordered shrimp/scallop dumpling and chives dumpling and they were delicious as well. The waitress(I think she's also the owner)was very nice and attentive. I had to send back the items, because they had meat in them. She graciously took them back and gave me something with no meat in it. She even gave me a discount on the bill Very impressive, because I wasn't even expecting that. She's truly a class act! Anyhow, I will definitely come back to try more stuff next time. I will definitely recommend it. Btw, the menu is very big. So many choices!!! read more

My daughter and I got food poisoning from the dim sum. If you're used to Cantonese dim sum, this place is not for you. The taste is off. We got the siu mai, haw gow, tripe and shrimp balls. Also a plate of seafood chow mein, which comes with sauce. The seafood didn't taste clean and the sauce was bland. The tripe was a orange color versus the plain clear color. I wasn't going to leave a comment till we got sick, had to use the bathroom every 20 mins, Beware! read more

This place used to be J.S. Chen's and I hadn't had the chance to come here then, because I lived closer to the one off of 75. But once I saw that they had changed owners but still managed to be Dim Sum, I was intrigued to try. I came on a Sunday afternoon after church and it was pretty packed with both asians as well as non-asians. Most of the workers there were Canto speaking, so that kind of eased me as well. They do the cart style of dim sum, so when the first cart came, we tried a couple of dishes. We had the shrimp dumpling, sui mai, bbq pork bun, egg custard bun, and the shark fin dumpling. My first bite went to the shrimp dumpling. OMG, what did I sink my teeth into?? Despite my nasal congestion and altered taste buds, that did not taste right at all. I really thought my illness was making my first experience really poor, but my husband confirmed that it wasn't me. And then I went to taste everything else and nothing was redeeming itself. They didn't seem fresh, the ingredients weren't the norm, the buns were not soft and fluffy, and the egg custard is suppose to be melted liquid gold inside....it was solid! I always finish my bread part of the steam bun, and that bun was so nasty that I just inhaled the bbq pork which was mediocre and just tossed the bread. My husband and I were so disappointed.....we just gave up on dim sum entirely! We decided to get the Singapore Stir Fried Vermicelli. The curry didn't really sink into the dish; it was more sprinkled on top. So it didn't quite make it either, but we were still hungry so it had to do. We will not be stopping by ever again. If you've never had dim sum, you might like it. If you've had good dim sum...it's not even comparable! You're better off with J.S. Chen or Kirin Court...until Dallas comes up with somewhere more competitive like Houston's Crown Seafood Restaurant. Let's not even go to the west coast....cuz we're not even close. But this place, I bet I could buy frozen versions and it could taste better. read more

Great service! Very attentive! Servers tried to update everything which was great cus gave us options. Not the best dim sum in the dfw but if you are in this area then it's not bad at all for nice family brunch! Chinese broccoli was my fave not salty. Eggplant dim sum plate was delicious. The kids loved the fun rolls and shrimp dumplings and shrimp balls. Wash it down with oolong tea! read more

We ordered lots of frozen dim sum from this restaurant. It is decent. The bbq bun is one of our favorites.

This place is pretty good for a dim sum Place in Texas. This place is not a traditional cart dim sum place. You'll have to order each dish. Which I'm okay with. I prefer this place over some of the other ones in the dfw area. I would come here again when I'm craving dim sum. read more

Came here for a midweek DimSum lunch. Nice to be able to order anything worry waiting for the right carts to pass. Everything was good, butt nothing was "great". Being Asian and growing up in NY/NJ, I've had some incredible Chinese food and DimSum, so this hit the fix. I'd come back. read more
