My family and I had some issues making our reservation at Moerlein recently, so we had to pivot on the playcall REAL fast. There is nothing worse than dealing with a hangry Stephanie. My mother mentioned Enson Harbor because of Chowdown Cincinnati, and we went in. In true tiktok form, "We're Asian Americans, OF COURSE we'll choose dim sum if that's an option!" Walking into the ghosts of Joe Crab Shack's past was a doozy. The building is spacious, but the seating is set up asymmetrically so there's random pockets of space on the dining floor. There were three servers for the entire restaurant - I am absolutely sure that it is hard to staff in general, and especially at a newer restaurant, but it's hard to enjoy your meal when you have three people running around with their heads cut off. The menu is large, and honestly, a little all over the place (like those servers!). They have the traditional dim sum section, "fried" dim sum (which I mean technically holds true, but I'd just call them apps), noodles and rice, and a random seafood boil section. We ordered a plethora of dumplings, as well as the sautéed pork, cha chiang meon, & fried rice. Everything came out as they were made, which was fine. It's actually something a lot of restaurants do these days and it doesn't bother me. What did bother me was how one dimensional the dumplings were. Between the Szechuan, black truffle, crab meat, etc., none of the dumplings were top tier. They weren't frozen from jungle Jim's variety, but they weren't outstanding either. The rest of our items followed the same suit. Was everything made by hand? Yes. Was everything made with love? No, it was all made with obligation. Combine that with the chaotic marathon the servers were half completing, it wasn't the most enjoyable dining experience. Would I come back here? That's a tough question. I want every local restaurant to succeed to the fullest extent - but there was nothing that screams that I need to be back, especially when there are other dim sum restaurants for me to try in the city. I would let you make your own assumptions if you're in the area, but I make no promises it will be spectacular. read more

Our food was delicious, and our service was amazing we were surprised by how fair the pricing is and enjoyed chatting with our server, Jessica M!!!. she made us feel very welcomed and helped with any questions we had. the decor and seating by the window was a vibe!!! read more

Our server was stellar, this is not a reflection upon him. However, another server was walking around in booty shorts and bubble slides... WILD. Lmao. The food however, was so bad we didn't bother ordering past our one appetizer. The menus were dirty and sticky... sign #1. We came for dim sum, and the options were very limited, it seemed more tailored towards mediocre sushi and crab boil. The dim sum 1/5. The shrimp dumplings jumbo tasted rancid, I didn't finish them. The view was super pretty though if you sit outside. read more

Delish Dim Sum! So happy I can enjoy Dim Sum with gluten free dumpling options. They're incredibly flavorful and filling. We tried a bunch of plates (GF and non gf) Service was great! I'll definitely be back! read more

You want good dim sum that's authentic and is better than nyc Chinatown quality? Here it is. Who would of known that it would be in Kentucky. The menu is smart, delicious, and yet appealing to many different taste. It felt like Gordon Ramsay came here from kitchen nightmares and just started working with the owners and chef to make this masterpiece of a restaurant. I am so glad that they went in the direction of dim sum and played to their strengths, as well as opening up a little slice of Chinese cuisine you don't really find in this area. Honestly 10/10. I'm from Asia and I think this is GOOD Asian. White people and Asian people, you would love read more

Wonderful food and service!! The best dumplings I've had in a while. We also loved the vibe of the restaurant and how cool the interior design was. Highly recommend as someone who is an avid Asian food eater. Our server Zymere was also so friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. read more

Great location for outside dining. Food was good, for what they had. They completely 86'd their stir fry menu for some soon to be added American items: chicken strips, fries, etc. They were also out of chicken for the chicken dumplings. Most annoying was the mandatory 15% gratuity and then they ask for and suggest tips at the bottom of the bill AFTER they already added 15%. So, it you are a 20% tipper, you just tipped over 35%!! My group didn't notice it and almost did that. The first 15% is printed on the menu, but the bill still has a line for tip. Kinda shady. read more

As a business owner myself, I really hate to do this, but I have to be honest. This was one of the worst places I've eaten in the last decade. Based on the building, I thought I was going in for seafood or maybe even burgers and American food and a great view of the water And Cincinnati. While I had a great view, the concept was immediately confusing as it's actually an Asian cuisine and the curry dumplings, and Raman, was mediocre at best. I had to ask for salt, which I never do and the green tea was terrible even to the point where waitress -in an unsolicited manner asked me how I like the tea and when I said it was terrible she said 'yeah everybody says that so I'm not charging you for it and can I bring you water or Coke?' The check, looked a little odd, and when I looked carefully a 15% gratuity was automatically added, which is inappropriate unless you're in Europe and working in a value added tax environment, which I don't think the USA operates under at this time? It was just me and not like this was a party of six or eight. Finally, the fortune cookie was stale and I suspect that since I'm told the restaurant is doing a complete makeover shortly and depleting their inventory that this was the attempt to get rid of the fortune cookies that remained. I really wish the owner and the establishment the best but for anyone looking to visit, I would absolutely positively wait until they switch to their American food concept in the coming months. read more

Great space with plenty of space and parking. Szechuan style wontons could have been much spicier.

We tried Enson Harbor from reading good reviews. We ordered a variety and it was fairly affordable for the amount of food we ordered. Staff was great and the inside is nice. The pan fried pork dumplings were definitely my favorite and the crab Rangoon was the best that I have ever had. I thought the server was exaggerating when she said it was the best but she was right - the rice paper made it extra crispy and the perfect ratio. To the point that we ate two before I could get a picture. We did the wonton soup, char sui bao, and the sampler of soup dumplings. Loved the soup dumplings and being able to swap different ones in - our least favorite was probably the pork and crab if we had to pick. Will be back again and I hope it does well! read more

Before writing this review, I came here twice. Partially to re-confirm my experience with the food - and partially because this restaurant is a paradoxical, beautiful, confusing, and delectable oddity, with an obscenely low aggregate review score that I just can't get behind. Let's get the food out of the way first. My family is from Shanghai. Since I was a wee tot, I've been visiting Shanghai every couple of years. Chinese soup dumplings (xiao long bao) were first invented, yep, in the Nanxiang district of Shanghai. So please know that I say with all sincerity - you could serve the crab + pork soup dumplings at Enson Harbor to customers in Shanghai, and you would get an above average rating. For literally any Chinatown in the US, that would be a moonshot, an absolutely phenomenal performance. For Bellevue Kentucky - what the hell? Incidentally - "what the hell" comes to mind when describing my next point: the atmosphere of Enson Harbor. I swear, if you described to me a restaurant that combined a stereotypical Charleston beach house aesthetic with a bilingual menu that exclusively featured traditional dimsum dishes, I would recommend the nearest psych hospital and a double dose of Zoloft. But here, miraculously, it works. Life preserver rings and buoys sit on the wall, whilst Chinese lanterns hang from the ceiling. You watch stunning views of the lazy Ohio river from the patio, and your server brings you hot bamboo steamers full of dimsum, which aren't even supposed to be served at dinner-time, and it's.. magnificent. There are dishes served here that are unyieldingly authentic - in addition to the soup dumplings (skip the truffle, stick with pork or pork + crab), I highly recommend the shrimp glass dumplings, the shrimp + pork shumai, the scallion pancakes, the pan fried pork buns (aka sheng jian bao), and the mango sago. The American comfort zone of crab rangoons and General Tso chicken are also available, but please, live a little. The owners at Enson Harbor have clearly taken an enormous risk in bringing dim sum to Northern Kentucky. Take advantage. read more

Went there for dinner last night on a Monday evening. Staff was very attentive and friendly. Food was very good. Ordered the friend pork dumplings, szecheuwan fried wontons, sweet and sour soup, wonton soup, crab rangoon and beef suimai. There was plenty of food for two and even had leftovers for a reasonable price. Everything was delicious with exception if the beef suimai, the flavor was decent but I did not like the consistency, may just be my preference. The ambiance was nice as well casual but not loud and elevated over mamy similar type restaurants. We will definitely be back! read more

This place has absolutely no idea what they're doing. Stay away at all costs. Been sitting here for 50 minutes. They just brought out the fried soft shell crab appetizer and forgot the sauce. Can't get anyone to bring it out, so my husband ate chilled sauceless fried crab. Drinks (wine and beer) took 30 minutes to get. No drink menus, the staff has to manually look up the prices on their screen and then show it to you at the table. Got our two sandwiches and shrimp tacos after 2 hours. Tails were left on the shrimp in the tacos, so we had to dig them all out and remove the tails. Also found a bone in my grouper. Lovely. read more

We happened upon Enson Harbor house while in the area and now drive 30 minutes to have their amazing food! Some of our favorites are the Mongolian Beef, the crab Rangoon (the best I've ever had), shrimp cigar and pork and shrimp sumai. All Delicious! They also have various good teas. I love the butterfly mango green tea. I highly recommend! read more

My husband and I met some friends for dinner at Enson Harbor this weekend and got to try a wide variety of the menu offerings -- we loved them all! Favorites included the cold sesame noodles, beef siumai and the pan fried pork buns. The dishes were delicious and priced well, they also had a pretty extensive beverage selection -- house made cocktails, lots of beer draft/bottles, sake and bourbons. And plenty of non-alcoholic bevs like bubble tea! The interior was cute and our waitress said they are waiting on some new outdoor furniture for the big patio. Looking forward to coming back again! Next time I'll take some pics before I devour my food. read more

I have eaten here 3 times. The food is okay. The service is ok. Never many diners in the big restaurant; it has a cold feel to it. I love dumplings, and they have some good ones. I like the small entrees. What I find very odd is that there are no sauces for the dumplings. They do not leave any condiments on the table; not even soy sauce. When you ask for soy sauce, they bring it out in to go plastic containers. Very strange, and extremely wasteful. We had at least 8 plastic containers on our table with soy. If I go back, it will be to sit on the outside patio when it's warm out. read more

Not only did I get an excellent meal, with outstanding portion sizes. But the service from waitresses Amie and Heather was absolutely the best part of our dinner! They were helpful when it came to making our decision and also knowledgeable of the menu! The Lobster Pasta was absolutely the bees knees. The half lobster was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The hush puppies were crunchy on the outside with a luscious warm center, and the sauce is the boss. I chose seasonal veggies as a side but received broccoli, which couldn't have worked out better. Amie and Heather did, however, still bring my seasonal veggies that were scrumptious. definitely suggest this to any seafood lover. it knocks Joe's outta the park. and they don't promise free crab tomorrow, so no disappointment. 10/10 read more

I know they have only been open for a month so I hate to write this. However the service we had Saturday night was insanely slow. We were starving and ended up making jokes about slow our server was. To add insult to injury, when the bills finally came they were swapped and incorrect. We didn't want to mess with it so we just paid them as presented. I could understand if they just were short staffed but I think it was just our particular server. Everyone else seemed to have better service. I had the fried cod and it was unremarkable. Hopefully they can work out the kinks but for now I wouldn't recommend this and don't plan to go back. I want to add this note, as the business manager wrote a reply below. We were there at 5:00 on a Saturday and it was far from busy when we arrived yet our service was still sub par. Again, I do hope you can overcome this. I would have certainly overlooked that if being busy was the issue. read more

Middle of the road in every way. Most of the dumplings are premade and frozen, which defeated my whole reason for seeking out an authentic dim sum restaurant. The sauce on the sesame chicken was so salty it was inedible. The soup and the fried rice were decent. My wife and I mutually decided that we would never go back. read more

Dimme Sum of this good stuff in my mouth any day of the week! Dumplings are great, rangoons are awesome, Bao Buns are fleek, and the wonton soup was so good that even my picky kid slurped it down to the last drop. Do yourself a favor and grab some egg yolk buns for a sweet treat after all the great food you eat. read more

The good reviews for this restaurant have to be fake. Our server was so nice and we tipped him accordingly but I can't believe I paid almost $60 for the worst lunch I've ever not eaten. I'm not picky. I love Asian food. The food was terrible. I'm not exaggerating. How is this place still open? read more

We went there for the fireworks on the Labor day. It is much cheaper than other restaurants nearby. Their dimsum is good but a little pricey if compare to normal dimsum place. The soup dumplings are great. Every dish is delicious, no complaint of the taste at all. The egg-yolk bun is very good. The boba menu is at standard. Overall, the atmosphere is spectacular and with the food it is perfect. read more

In short, I'd skip this restaurant. We ordered five dishes this evening. The crab Rangoon was crispy and had a creamy crab filling, which was good. We then tried the chicken soup dumplings, which were our favorite because of the flavorful soup and chicken inside. The chicken dumplings were just okay, and not nearly as good as the soup dumplings. We then ordered the general tso chicken with rice - the rice was cold and dry, but the broccoli was cooked perfectly and the sauce was sweet and a bit spicy. The sweet and sour chicken with rice was our final dish - the chicken and vegetables were cooked well and had a good sauce, but the rice was again cold and dry. The servers were terrific and very knowledgeable- they made the dinner very pleasant. The ambiance was odd - thinks Joe's Crab Shack meets panda bears and Chinese lanterns and you've got it. But it's clean and has a relaxing open concept with some tvs and a bar. We won't be back because the quality of the food does not match up with the higher prices. Plus the portion of some of the dishes is so small (e.g. general tso chicken portion was laughably small). Our check for the five dishes was $52 after tip. read more

Had a not so stellar experience today at Enson Harbor. Let me set this up by saying I order old fashioned cocktails a lot when out for dinner. I also make them at home. It's a very easy drink to make. 2 oz of bourbon, 1/2 ounce simple syrup, couple dashes of bitters. Mix with ice and strain in an old fashioned glass over fresh ice. Express a slice of orange peel over the cocktail, rubbing the peel around the edge of glass and then place the peel into the drink. Simple right? Not at Enson Harbor. What you get is a concoction of muddled fruit and booze in a cocktail glass. Not an old fashioned. They tried to remake the drink, which once again was an epic fail. I sent it back again. I wound up ordering a beer with my food. When presented with our check, the drink was still on the bill. I asked our server (Cammy was very delightful) to please take it off. She said she tried but was forbidden to remove it. I asked to speak to the Manager. A young woman came out, identifying herself as the GM. She proceeded to tell me her hands were tied due to investor rules. What?? Then the bartender comes out telling me she has made old fashioneds up and down "the levee" (whatever credibility that brings) and stating she knows how to make them. We bantered back and forth, and the bartender looked at the GM and told her, and I quote, "we don't need their business anymore!" Ok, that is not a problem. We won't be going back! Although I think the food is good, if you are touting a full bar, you better have someone that can make cocktails. An old fashioned is the most basic of cocktails and there are only two places in my life where I havr ordered one that had a disgusting pile of fruit in the bottom... The old Enson Harbor and the new Enson Harbor. By the way, the drink was finally taken off of our bill. read more

Amazing food. I love the soup dumplings and the fried buns. I think the food is very authentic! Definitely will come back in the future!

This was our second time eating at Enson Harbor. The food is good however, the service is subpar. After walking to the bar for drinks (several told us to when she didn't know what beers were on tap) and then proceeded to wait 45 min after our appetizers were served and not one person came to the table. We asked for the check at the front and left. It's a shame the food is food, but we will not be back: read more

Our first visit and we were pleasantly surprised. Started out with drinks. My Moscow Mule was as advertised. My partner's Old Fashion was served with an abundance of cherry juice but he wasn't going to send it back. To the General Manager's credit, she came to our table to see if the miss-colored cocktail was to his liking and since it wasn't, she had it replaced with a palatable version. Our meals were both delicious. My boiled bag of headless-shrimp and perfectly-prepared scallops paired with potatoes, corn on the cob and broccoli were delicious while my partner's tuna came out as two huge pieces of well-prepared servings. I topped my meal off with a lava cake. We'll be back! read more

Food delicious! Service was very accommodating. Priced right and great views of the river!

First, absolutely adorable decor. Service was friendly and food was good. The portion size was a complete bummer for the price. Adult beverages were pretty good, but again overpriced. With all the other options close by, it's a 50/50 you will walk away happy. read more

I ordered the Shrimp fried Rice on Sunday 9/7/2025 for dinner. It was a large portion but didn't appear so appetizing. All of the shrimp were buried in the bottom of the rice bowl, there were a good amount. The vegetables looked like a bag of vegetable soup frozen type. The taste seemed ok but not great. I asked for siracha and got a teaspoon amount on a small metal dish. I ate less than a 1/3 and took the rest home in a to-go container. The location is great, service was good because the place was EMPTY at 6:45pm! I should have suspected something was amiss. However after going home and settling in to watch a movie I became VERY ill! Stomach rumbling, acute nausea and projectile vomiting of the SHRIMP FRIED RICE I HAD EATEN EARLIER! DO NOT GO HERE!! . The restaurant is changing the menu to give a wider variety of foods so they can make you ill with a variety! Avoid at all costs! I am contemplating taking the leftovers to the health department for evaluation. AWFUL FOOD! read more

Went to the soft opening of Enson Harbor and I am impressed with the dimsum, which was served at dinner as well in contrast to the usual and strict lunch schedule in most places. Good flavors. The location has a convenient parking lot. They also serve boba teas, smoothies, and tea shakes. Wish they had quail eggs, turnip cake, and chicken feet! read more

I'd been previously when this was a seafood restaurant, so I was surprised to see it as Dim Sum when we walked in. The food was reasonably priced, came out quickly and a limited menu with enough selection but the reassurance that it's being made fresh. Super excited when I saw they have boba, I think that's the best part! I'm not sure of any other boba restaurant or spot on this side of the Ohio river without going all the way to Florence! Service was quick and friendly too! read more

We wanted to start the new year off with a bang so we decided on seafood for lunch on New Year's Day. Neither my husband or I had been here before so we decided to try it out. We arrived at 1pm and there was not another car in the parking lot so we were worried they might be closed. However, we went inside and they were open! There was a bartender and one server inside who quickly sat us. We ordered the raw oysters and onion rings for appetizers and both were great. For entrees, I ordered the half pound peeled shrimp boil and my husband got the Low Country combo boil. Personally, I found my shrimp to be quite rubbery and overcooked. My husband thought his combo was delicious and everything tasted great. Overall, our bill was $90+ dollars which seemed on the expensive side given the portion sizes but overall we enjoyed our lunch. If you're a seafood enthusiast, I would recommend giving this place a chance! read more
