If you are looking for dim sum that balances traditional flavors with a modern, "Instagram-worthy" flair, this is the spot. We visited Coco Cuisine and were immediately impressed by the presentation and the freshness of the dishes. The Standouts * Charcoal Salted Egg Yolk Buns: These are a showstopper. The dark charcoal dough topped with a delicate gold leaf makes them look incredibly high-end. The filling was the perfect balance of sweet and savory--exactly what you want in a lava bun. * Sticky Rice in Lotus Leaf: Perfectly steamed and packed with flavor. The rice had that wonderful earthy aroma from the leaf, and the portion size was generous. * The Classics: The Siu Mai was firm and juicy, and the Egg Tarts had a beautifully flaky crust with a silky, rich custard center. * The "Cute" Factor: We couldn't resist the animal-shaped buns (the little chicks!). They are almost too cute to eat, but they were a hit at the table, especially for the kids. Experience & Atmosphere The restaurant has a clean, contemporary feel with those convenient built-in table warmers to keep your tea or dishes at the perfect temperature. The service was efficient, and the food came out piping hot in traditional bamboo steamers. read more

Coco Cuisine - Dim sum - Cantonese Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

If you're in the mood for dim sum & authentic Chinese cuisine, you need to give CoCo Cuisine a try! There are so many things to choose from! Hot pot, soup dumplings, fresh seafood, Chinese dishes, authentic unique options I haven't seen anywhere else, and so much more! This is a great spot for a hot meal with friends or a date; the service is very friendly & speedy! I'm a big fan of the flavor in the truffle soup dumplings; it has the right amount of truffle without being overpowering; crab rangoons are a must whenever they're on the menu! The beef short ribs come out sizzling hot and the peppers pair perfectly with it! I hadn't had spicy cucumber salad before, but I will most definitely trying it again! Stop on by!! read more

It's a long wait if you come in at a busy time but that would be my only complaint. The food is great, specially the salted egg crab. And the egg yolk buns are delicious!!!!!! Totally recommend!!!! The restaurant is very spacious and beautiful. read more

I've been looking for a Chinese spot that has Roast Pork buns anywhere close to Chinatown in NYC. Mission accomplished!! Although these are different in appearance, the sweet flavor and slight crunch that the dough delivers completely surprised me in a way that I couldn't stop smiling and staring at the bun with each bite. 3 of these delectable buns for $7.95 is a steal! Scallion pancakes, a bbq pork dumplings and sesame balls just rounded off my visit. All washed down with a glass of Sapporo. I'm a snob for Sesame Balls and these are as amazing as the pork buns. Generous amounts of Red Bean paste inside of a crispy shell with a chewy glutinous rice interior. Coco Cuisine knocked it out of the park! I can't wait to come back. read more

My family and I have been on a quest to find great dim sum in Ohio after experiencing the deliciousness that is DTF in California, and we were so happy with our dinner at Coco Cuisine last night. Everything was phenomenal and we can't wait to go back. We had the combo lo mein and sooo many items from the dim sum menu. Our server was kind and very helpful when we asked for recommendations. She was also great when our plans changed right after we ordered food to eat in and then changed it to a to go order. The lo mein was the best we've ever had, the soup dumplings were very good, and we loved the shrimp and leek dumplings and black truffle sui mai. The restaurant was very modern, clean, and busy, especially at 9:30 on a Saturday night. We'll definitely visit every time we're in Columbus! read more

Coco cuisine delivers! You can go for their hot pot experience where they seat you in a table with a built in burner or you can choose the table without a hot pot option. The last time we came here we tried their regular (non hot pot menu). They have pretty good dimsum options. I think some of the best in the business. For example, their Xiao Long Bao is excellent. I also like their "shrimp crepe." Their water spinach with garlic is very good, although a bit on the greasy side. I really enjoyed their fish filet in green peppercorns--really outstanding. We have had very good luck with their hot pot as well, maybe not as good as what we can do make at home :), but excellent nonetheless, with different options for the base. The service was efficient and polite, and the restaurant is large and spacious. read more

What a nice surprise. The food is so good. Everything was delicious and fresh. Loved the dim sum option that's available all day. Great way to start as appetizers. The restaurant is clean and nicely lit with round tables, great for sharing and conversation. The egg tarts, ribs with sour cabbage and lamb stews were outstanding. read more

Went for dimsum this evening. Place is nice, service is fast, and the food tastes good. However it's definitely on the pricier side. A lot of the dimsum sets are basically 3 dumplings for basically 7$. Which is honestly kind of inflated to me.. Also keep in mind that they automatically charge a 15% gratuity. read more

I met Gwen and Marlena for lunch during the week, and there were several tables of customers. There are different menus, plus a list of lunch specials. I chose the Sesame Shrimp with fried rice. They do not serve wine by the glass, so Marlena & I shared a bottle of Riesling for $20. Service was good. I would like to return. read more

Came here for lunch on a weekday for dimsum. Got my usual favorites: har gow, deep-fried salty dumplings, deep-fried taro dumplings, pork inside bean curd, daikon cake, and lotus leaf rice. Everything was flavorful and delicious, freshly made and hot too. It's so difficult to find good dimsum and this one was awesome! Came with three people as most dishes have three pieces, and bill came out to be around $18 including tax and tip (15% tip is automatically included in the bill). read more

Let's start with my life-long obsession with Dim Sum. It's been a love affair. Not THAT kind of affair - my wife knows all about it, there's no sneaking around behind her back, and I drag her to every decent Dim Sum restaurant I can find (she's not a big fan, but she loves me, so she tolerates my Dim Sum obsession - once in a while). I've eaten Dim Sum in every Chinatown I've ever been to. Driven hours out of the way. The best have been - not surprisingly - in San Francisco and Vancouver BC. But I've also eaten Dim Sum in Seattle, Toronto, New York City, Oakland, and many, many other places. Well... Coco Cuisine is damn good. Very authentic. Highly recommended. We walked in on a Tuesday evening, and almost all other tables were filled with large groups of ethnic Chinese diners - talking, laughing, enjoying the food and the restaurant. We were definitely in the minority, which was - of course - a great sign. The place is lovely - nicely decorated, somewhat upscale - if I hadn't been seated looking out onto the parking lot toward a Wendy's on Bethel Road, I could have easily imagined myself in a good Dim Sum restaurant in San Francisco's Chinatown. The service was friendly, polite and attentive. The food - oh, the food... was very, very good Dim Sum. Side story - many years ago, I backpacked across Greece for several weeks with a dear friend (I miss you, Jim... rest in peace). We ate our way across Greece eating mostly at small, local, family-owned Taverna's. The food at most places was mostly the same traditional Greek fare, so we made up a game of judging every Taverna's food on the quality of their yogurt, and the quality of their feta (usually both are homemade in a small family-operated taverna). Yogurt and feta are staples of Greek food, and a matter of pride for most taverna owners. So this turned out to be a fantastic gauge of each restaurant's food quality. Well, decades later I still use the same rule for Dim Sum - I judge every Dim Sum restaurant's food based on their Siu Mai (steamed dumplings made with big pieces of shrimp and pork). I love them. I obsess about them. If the Siu Mai is good enough, I can eat an entire meal of nothing but Siu Mai and be very happy. Well, Coco Cuisine's Siu Mai are big, fantastic, meaty, and a bargain at 4 for $6.95. One order of 4 dumplings would fill up most normal humans. I'd eat 2 orders (8 dumplings), out of gluttony and my love of great Siu Mai. These might be - probably are - yea, I'm pretty sure - the BEST SIU MAI I'VE EVER EATEN, and I've likely eaten thousands over the years. The best. And Coco Cuisine is only 3 miles from my house. Their attached sister restaurant is Coco Hot Pot, so some in your party can have hot pot if they don't love dim sum. And they also have a FULL menu of traditional Chinese dishes - so there's a huge variety for everyone, as long as they like Chinese food. And a full bar. OMG, I'm in trouble - I'll be eating here once a week. My wife really liked Coco Cuisine too (which is a miracle, because she's only so-so on Chinese food), but I don't think she'll agree to this being in our rotation every 7 days for the rest of my life. Go. Just go. You'll thank me. This is a wonderful, authentic, delicious ethnic cuisine experience. We now have a legit Chinatown-worthy Dim Sum restaurant in Columbus. Finally! I've been desperately searching for one in Columbus for 35+ years, and we finally have one. When you go, say "hi" to me... There's a 50/50 chance I'll be there with my beautiful wife, or 50/50 I'll be the guy in the corner, dining alone, with 3 full orders of Siu Mai in front of me and a silly-ass grin on my face... :-) So, so good. Very, very, very highly recommended. read more

Coco Cuisine - Yummy...!!! - Cantonese Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Food is great. The sizes are large. My favorites are the steamed pork bun and the pan fried pork bun. The siumai and sesame balls could be better. The ambiance is great. Glad that during our visits it's not overflowing with people. Been there twice and on our recent visit our server was very nice and very helpful. She ensured our visit was very comfortable. The only thing is it can be quite expensive. We still have to try their hotpot read more

Okay, I am a stickler for dim sum. This place was decent but it's not my first choice. That would be Ty Ginger Asian bistro in Dublin. Perks about this place is you can make your own sauces. The shrimp roll was underwhelming. Best dish was the eggplant. Service was chill. And I like the inside of Ty ginger better. Overall, we tried it. But not necessarily are going to be coming back for more. read more

Holy cow, Mark K. was right, this place is soooo good! Met Yelp friends Anna and Marlena for lunch. The space is nicely organized with hotpot tables in one big space; walk through to the other large space, and it's regular tables and chairs (presumably for guests who want plated entrees or off their dim sum menu). The hostess sat us at a hotpot table because we didn't know which we wanted, or both. Our waitress was nice and helpful in explaining the menus. Their menu is pretty full. Their paper dim sum menu is nicely categorized and everything has a picture to accompany; anything they're out of/not serving is noted. I went straight to their dim sum menu and ordered a few different things. NOTE: Prices are based on size; the corresponding amount is labeled at the top and range from $4.95 (S) to $15.95 (SP). I ordered: - Shrimp & Chive Dumplings (L) - $6.95 - Pan Fired Pork & Shrimp Bun (L) - $6.95 - Pan Fried Shrimp & Leeks Dumpling (L) - $6.95 - Crispy Stuffed Taro (M) - $5.95 - Egg Custard Bun (M) - $5.95 I tried at least one of each before boxing up for to-go, and they were all INCREDIBLY GOOD!! Seriously, all were brought out freshly cooked and hot. So much flavor! Not one was below par of the others. Shrimp & Chive dumplings came out first, and I'm glad I tackled those first, as the rice paper wrapping was nicely palatable when steaming hot. The Crispy Studfed Taro was a new one for me. Nice and cripy, yet very easy to bite into. I forgot to ask what the soft mashed consistency was that was holding the protein contents together, but in any case, just as highly recommended as the other dim sum dishes. And major shoutout for their Egg Custard Bun! The custard was very smooth (not gritty like other places I've tried), the bun casing was soft and a smidge hint of sweetness, held together perfectly. Every one of my individual dim sum items I tried held together perfectly. The leftovers also held together nicely for dinner. Huge thumbs up for kitchen staff's technical nohow and showmanship! Anna loved her luncn-portion Seaame Chicken; same for Marlena's seafood medley. This spot far surpasses my Ty Ginger Asian Bistro experience. A new #1 for Dim Sum. I will definitely, 100% for-sure be back! read more

Sorry for the messy plate pix. My first visit to Coco Cuisine off Bethel, an expansion of the existing Coco HotPot. The dim sum was pretty amazing. I was shocked by the generous sizes of the dumplings (giant, yikes!) and overall quality, plus the portioning overall was eye widening. More "family style" quantities than I've gotten from Coco Hotpot (takeaway) in the past. We ordered about a dozen plates, including two entrees of House Chow Fun and Garlic Water Spinach and a big bowl of seafood congee. The only one I didn't care for were the sweet coconut meat piggy buns. But all the others especially the shrimp Cheung Fun, Har Gow, Chiu Chow, and Fried Stuffed Taro were off the hook. Service was friendly and amazing. They are out to impress. Food was out lightning fast, a little staggering wouldn't have helped cuz it was a little overwhelming. Our server mentioned at least 3x that they serve dim sum to order all day all week. And have large tables for celebrating. Not sure if word has fully gotten out yet? Wasn't hugely crowded. It was a Monday holiday though. Definitely can add up price-wise. With the added 15% tip + 5% extra we dropped about $170 for 3 of us. With that said, the prices were reasonable and we went home carrying two shopping bags full of leftovers. We didn't even touch the Chow Fun. It's scary this is just down the street from me lol For cowtown, this is beyond acceptable. I'll give it a go try it out 4/5 dumpling recommend read more

Terrific, homemade food - very impressed with our dim sum experience. Appreciated the great recommendations from our server. Delicious!

We came on a Saturday around noon and got seated right away. There is a lot of seating with various sizes. We got dim sum and marked what we wanted from the menu. The menu had the basic dim sum staples and a tad bit more. We didn't have to wait long for our food to come out. The server was nice. Overall, the most dim sum dishes are larger than other places. They're good, but not the best. The black truffle siu mai was loaded with truffle flavor. The egg tarts tasted good and had a great pastry shell. The surface of the egg custard was not the smoothest and had little tiny bumps. The Portuguese egg tarts are made from the same pastry shell and the custard is a little sweeter. The tofu in the tofu pudding could have been smoother. I did appreciate them having the sugar syrup in a separate tray so you can adjust the sweetness to your liking. The soy milk was warm and smooth. The soup dumplings were good. can't say it's better or worse than its competitors. read more

We went to the relatively new CoCo Cuisine on Bethel Road today. It's an expansion of the older CoCo Hot Pot restaurant, and now offers a wide array of Cantonese Dim Sum. We had Shrimp Dumplings, Crabmeat Soup Dumplings, fried Potstickers, Stuffed Tofu and Grilled Beef Short Ribs. The only thing we didn't like were the Short Ribs. They were fatty and grisly, and did not have much lean meat on them at all. Maybe it's the style for that dish. I am a Dim Sum amateur, so I don't know. But everything else was FANTASTIC! The flavors were subtle and complex, the presentation was beautiful, and our waitress was attentive and informative. We ordered a total of five dishes for three of us, which was plenty for lunch. read more
