    Stinky rice and Har gow
    Yuki N.

    A fairly new dim sum spot in the Rockville area. The restaurant was quite packed during weekend lunch, so I would highly recommend arriving early. There is a decent sized parking lot in front, which is convenient. The place was clean, and the staff was also friendly. The menu offers a wide variety of dim sum and Cantonese dishes, so you will likely find something you enjoy. In addition to the regular menu, there is a separate menu book featuring specialty items such as soup dumplings and Peking duck. Prices for the dim sum are reasonable compared to other spots in the area. There were only two servers handling orders and food service, which made things feel a bit hectic at times. They even had to double check whether certain dishes belonged to our table or another. The flavors of the dim sum were not overly strong, but well balanced and enjoyable. Portions were also generous. We especially liked the large pieces of shrimp in the har gow and shrimp rice noodle rolls. The sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaf was particularly flavorful and filling, with a nice mix of ingredients like meat, chestnut, and mushroom. The biggest downside was the temperature of the food. While service was not especially slow, most dishes arrived lukewarm. The soup dumplings in particular were noticeably cool, which was disappointing. The egg drop soup also came out at the end, even though it is typically prepared in advance and served quickly. Overall, we enjoyed the food and would come back again.

    Awesome spot for dim sum or other Cantonese dishes! Pretty busy on a Saturday morning but we were seated quickly and also got our food in a timely fashion. We enjoyed the steamed chicken with ginger/garlic sauce, soup dumplings, and salt/pepper pork chop. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Limited indoor seating.

    I was modestly hopeful when a friend mentioned that Corner Bites offered dim sum, even though it wasn't pushcart dim sum. We went as soon as they opened in hopes that that would maximize the freshness and availability of options. We were seated promptly and asked if we wanted tea and what kind of tea , which was nice. We ordered the sauted green beans which were fine, however they weren't fried enough to create the traditional wrinkled texture; the puff pastry bbq pork which didn't have a lot of flavor beyond just being sweet; the shumai which were huge, under seasoned and chunky; the sweet pork ribs in black bean sauce that barely had any meat on the bones or enough sauce; the fried pork puff which were good; minced beef congee with no seasoning at all; and lastly was the roasted duck buns which barely had any pieces of the under seasoned duck and was slathered in a overly salty housin concoction to cover up the fact that there wasn't any meat in the bun. I saw a couple people at other tables order noodle dishes like the beef chow fun, which, in hindsight, may have been a better move over the dim sum. The highlight of the experience was the service and the desserts. We orders the egg tarts and egg custard buns which were great but were like prepared from frozen, given the uniformity. Unfortunately I will unlikely be back to Corner Bites with the exception of maybe trying their noodle dishes. If you want good dim sum, this place is not it.

    Went on a Sunday morning at 10:30am, and there were still available parking spaces and tables. It filled up by the time we left at around 11:15am. Between the two of us, my husband and I ordered 7 dim-sum dishes and were out in 45 minutes, so that was quick. The bill was $47 before tipping. The restaurant has two separate dining areas. We sat in the front area where the tables were rectangular and the space is bigger than the back area. I believe the back dining area has a few circular tables. We used to frequent Hollywood East before it closed. We ordered the typical dishes we used to get at Hollywood East: Har Gow, steam chicken Shiu Mai, baked BBQ pork bun, minced beef congee, baked pineapple bun, and baked egg custard. Corner Bites did the same dishes better than Hollywood East. The buns were very fluffy, the shiu mai were huge, and the egg custard crust was very flaky. We ordered the baked roasted duck bun, as we typically like duck, but we weren't fans of the duck buns - too much cucumber and not enough duck. We wouldn't order the duck bun again, but would order everything else again! I would've liked if the menu was organized differently, because dim sum and larger plates are on the same page. Or maybe I would've liked a separate paper menu for the dim sum dishes, so that we can check off what we'd like to order. It can be hard to keep track of our orders! The dishes do come out really HOT, so be careful!

    When in Rockville, I always want Chinese food. I came to Corner Bites after I had a nearby appointments, and was pleasantly surprised. The ambiance is no frills, but clean and bright. The service is really fast! I was shocked at how quickly the food came out. I tried several dishes, including Chicken pan fried noodles, shiu Mai, har gow, shrimp rice rolls, wonton noodle soup, shrimp and chive dumplings, and sticky rice. The items I liked the best and would definitely try again were the pan fried noodles, shiu mai, bok Choy, and the shrimp and chive dumplings. I thought the other items were good, but pretty typical. I did not like the sticky rice at all, and found it pretty bland. We had a lot of leftovers and the staff packed them to go. One odd thing I noticed is half of my sticky rice was missing. Maybe it fell in the floor? I'm not sure, and didn't care that much because I didn't like the dish any way. I would love to come back and try other dishes.

    We came around noon on a Saturday,, lol I guess it's the peak hours! Parking was full so we had to park across the street or nearby areas. About 20-25 mins before we're seated. Suggest to come closer to 1 or right at 10 for opening time on weekends. Service was good aside being forgotten a bit after we ordered our drinks.. lol. This isn't a ayce with cart dim sum but they're all fresh made to order. All came piping hot, we got seafood roll (love it), shumai (good), soup dumpling (great), beef noodle roll (good) and pork bao bun (great but careful it's piping hot). Our coffee milk tea served in the black and white cow mug :). All in all, everything was delicious and would def be back for more!

    Corner Bites is a great spot for dimsum. Try and get there early though because parking fills up! We had to get the staples and everything was outstanding! The beef rice crepes were delicious! The crepes were the perfect texture! Happy to have a new dim sum place in MoCo!

    New Cantonese/dim sum spot that seemed to have replaced what used to be an Asian grocery store. The food was hit or miss--the Cantonese lobster was the star as it was both very fresh and at a good price. I also enjoyed the eggplant although it was a little oily. But, the duck bun was a bit sparse on duck and the shrimp rice noodle had skin that was too thick and not the right chewy texture. The service was polite and fast, and there is free parking outside but the spots are tight and we almost couldn't find a parking spot. The ambiance could be better, for a restaurant that's fairly new the furniture already looks sort of old and the ceiling looks like a warehouse. Overall I would still return back for that delicious Cantonese lobster but they could probably make a couple of improvements.

    11.22.25 My friend took me out for my birthday dinner. I love dim sum (small dishes like tapas) and was excited with the selection they have. I ordered the fried pork puff, baked bbq pork bun, baked roasted duck bun, fried stuffed eggplant, beef rice noodle rolls, and sticky rice. I also ordered baked egg custard to go for my husband. She ordered the crispy seafood roll, congee, and sweet rice cake for dessert. I LOVED everything I ordered with my least favorite being the roasted duck bun. It needed more duck and the sauce was not spread uniformly. Some areas were dry. I'm huge on sauces so requested for more on the side for all my dishes. My friend didn't like the seafood rolls and she said the congee was bland so they replaced her congee and she said it tasted better. Our server was friendly and attentive; she checked on us frequently. I read reviews which said that the restaurant is generally busy so made reservations for 5:30pm. We arrived at 5:20pm and when we left an hour later, it wasn't busy at all. I wonder if they are busier at lunch time. I really enjoyed the food and service and would definitely return to try other dishes aside from dim sum.

    Overall: Corner Bites is a great spot for dim sum, highly recommend you try it if you are in the area. Warning, parking is limited so be prepared to squeeze into the back. Food: The food here was great, we ordered several dishes and each one was spot on. Not much to say other than quality dim sum. Service: The service was fast considering the number of people inside. We got in as soon as the restaurant opened, and it quickly became crowded with a line outside. After ordering, we had a brief wait, but once the food started to roll in, it all came pretty quickly, one after another. Ambiance: The ambiance inside was that of a standard dim sum place. Lots of seating inside that can accommodate larger parties.

    Went to visit on a Saturday night and there was plenty of seating available. Excellent service from the start. Variety of teas available. I was eager to try their dim sum dishes. The shu mai was huge! The beef brisket soup was delicious too. One of my favorites was also the taro cake and it was fresh and tasty. There was also a Chinese yew year menu with a variety of dishes. Our waitress checked on our table very often which was nice. She also was very patient when asked to bring a large number of to-go containers. I'll definitely come back!

    This is an exciting and new Cantonese restaurant in downtown Rockville! my son wanted to come here, and he knows the best restaurants in the area. His recommendation was spot on! This restaurant has very fresh and authentic dim sum and Cantonese dishes. We came here for lunch on a weekend, and then came back for dinner during the week. We couldn't be happier with the food and the service. In addition, the restaurant was nicely decorated and very clean I might add! We finished our meal off with a special kind of tea served in this restaurant only - the H.K. Milk Tea. You've got to try it! We will be back for sure, again, and again, and again!

    A recent opening of corner bites had my family and I going straight for dim sum. The name itself pretty much describes the location, wedged in the corner of Rockville with delicious bites of authentic Chinese dishes. Parking is a bit tight but does the job and the exterior of the restaurant could use some work. Service is really good, the waiters and waitresses are very attentive and help with recommendations on their top selling dishes. They also have a variety of Chinese drinks (the originals Hong Kong milk tea is my go to). Dim sum options like har got, Siu Mai, etc are available from opening to closing. I also recommend the roasted duck dish--it's pretty delicious. They have small party room in the back but overall seating everywhere.

    See all

We arrived right when they opened around 11 AM on a weekend and were seated immediately since it wasn't too busy yet. One thing to note is that the entire party needs to be present before being seated, which they enforce, but it helps keep things moving smoothly once you're inside. The service felt traditional and efficient, with attentive push carts circulating constantly, making it easy to see what's fresh and grab dishes as they come by. The staff were also accommodating with a baby seat, which made the visit comfortable for families. The steamed cart is always my favorite, and Far East does it well. Standouts for me were the shrimp rice crepe (silky and delicate), shrimp dumplings (har gow) with plump, juicy filling, and the steamed ribs, which were tender and flavorful. The chicken feet and tripe were also well prepared -- classic dim sum staples done right. I also loved the sticky rice, which was fragrant and satisfying, along with two must-order bakery items: the pineapple buns and egg tarts. Both were fresh and comforting, with the egg tarts having that perfect balance of flaky crust and smooth custard. Overall, Far East delivers a solid, traditional dim sum experience -- lively carts, reliable favorites, and a welcoming environment for groups and families. Great spot to gather, share dishes, and enjoy a relaxed weekend dim sum meal. Definitely glad to have seating back again.

We came on a Friday night, and had to wait about 30 minutes for seating. The dining area is basically wooden chairs and tables. Not much ambiance, but that's not why you come here. We ordered scallion pancakes, soup dumplings, eggplant with basil, and noodles with chicken. I never had scallion pancakes. Nothing I would order again. I have nothing to compare, but I assume they're good. The dumplings were fantastic. The eggplant, which comes in three varieties, appeared to be a popular item with other guests. I guess it was good. I'm not a fan of saucy food. The noodles were fantastic. I feel like we ordered wrong, although my girlfriend picked everything except the noodles. This is not a place to visit if you're looking to lose weight. The hard sugar in the eggplant alone was more than I consume in two months. I'm probably not in the best position to rate our dinner as I avoid carbs and sugar. If I were to come back, I'd stick the noodles and revisit the menu to see if there is a solid chicken option. I came here hungry and left hungry as the food was not filling, and the sugar content sent my system into a bit of a shock. Nonetheless, if this cuisine is your thing, you won't be disappointed.
