Much better experience this time around. Everything was top tier. Favorites of: - Chicken Feet, flavorful, hot, and all braised joints separate into little digits. - Hom Sei Gok, hot, nice and chewy with decent amount of filling - Salt & Pepper Fried Tofu, came out hot and not overly spicy or salty - Beef Cheong Fun, the ground beef was solid in the full length of the roll - Fish Filet Jook, fresh slices of fish, jook was nice and smooth with slivers of ginger. We also bought a Fried Doughnut to dip into the jook. Got to have this combo - Herbal Jelly, a grassy herby blackish greenish jelly with a sweet ginger syrup Service was decent on a Saturday. Parking is the only challenge for Dim Sum Club. read more

I came here in around 1 pm on a Friday and the place wasn't busy yet but shortly thereafter it was buzzing. I was asked what type of tea. I ordered oolong tea. You get a magic marker erasable menu with pictures and you write the number next to items you want to order. I was by myself so I ordered four items. Scallops (this was more like scallops and more shrimp) pork and shrimp sui mai, shrimp & bitter melon rice paper with gai lan & duck pot sticker They are all delicious and came very quickly. I asked for hot sauce and soy sauce but soy sauce never came out. The look of the place is like what you'd expect at a dim sum house ambiance. The steamed dumplings are brought out on a tray one by one not push carts so don't expect that. read more

Came here for dim sum for the first time with my family, it was so good! We love getting the OG dishes like siu mai and har gow. I feel like if a place can get just the originals right, then everything else will taste good and I was right! I almost wanted to get another plate of siu mai but I was already so full from everything else. Coming here on a weekend is definitely going to be really busy and may have a long wait, definitely plan ahead! read more

So I have to say this, hands down the best dim sum in the city. I came here for a lunch with my co workers. Upon arriving, there I've noticed it is a lot of locals eating here which is a good sign already. How you order is they give you a marker and you mark how much portion you want on the menu given to you. The portions were so BIG. We honestly ordered way to much. My favorites were the salt and pepper tofu which melted in your mouth, the crispy shrimp balls, & the turnip cakes. The service was super fast & fyi there was only one worker there who spoke English. It was super busy during lunch time, and I wouldn't say its underrated because it seems the locals already know whats up with this place. Now, if this place were to go viral I wouldn't be surprised. I will definitely come back with my own family to eat here again. read more

What an experience!! I ordered some of my favorite dim sum dishes and a few new ones and boy was it satisfying. Service was spot on quick and the atmosphere made it feel even better. Yall gotta stop by this place but be prepared to wait. Place your name on the waitlist clipboard but keep an eye on your spot. Sometimes you'll get those that like to go ahead of you because they think it's ok. read more

The only rule about dim sum club is you tell others to come! This place was bustling soon after opening for the day, and as soon as the first dumplings started arriving, it was clear why. Perfectly done shrimp & chive dumplings, stuffed eggplant, beef balls, and we kept it coming. The beef chow fun was a solid rendition, maybe a little on the oily side, but mighty tasty and wok hei'd. The owner Huang Mei was at the register and cheerily keeping an eye on everything. She owns five other restaurants in SF, and a sixth is opening in Fisherman's Wharf soon, so hey dim sum empire. read more

Dim Sum Club - Dim Sum Near Me - San Francisco, California

Yesterday I had the pleasure of dining at Dim Sum Club for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed it. There were only three of us, but we ordered what seemed like a ton of different dishes plus some garlic pea sprouts and the pan fried noodles with beef and black bean. Every dish was very tasty and came to the table piping hot. The dumplings were plump and well seasoned and came with four in an order. We had the egg yolk lava buns for dessert and even though mine was cold by the time I ate it, the sweet egg yolk filling oozed out. It was a bit too sweet for me, but still good. My friend, who had never had it before, really liked it. The pan fried noodles were pretty plain, but still tasty; there was an abundance of onions, some green pepper, and a fair amount of beef. The beef was tender and the noodles had some nice crispy parts, a big plus for the dish! We got there at about 11 on a Monday; they opened at 10:30. We were seated immediately, but about half an hour later all the tables were filled and people were still coming in looking for a table. Service was friendly and attentive; they filled the tea pot a couple of different times for us and brought us a pot of hot water when it was requested. Everything went well and the food was very good. I found the prices to be a bit higher than many other places, but that probably won't prevent me from returning! read more

Went to Dim Sum Club on Saturday around 11:30 am. All the tables were taken, but the wait was only about 5 minutes for a table of two. The menu is front and back, and ordering is simple: each item is listed in Chinese and English, includes a picture, and shows the price. Just grab a marker and write in the quantity you want for each item. The server then takes the menu and enters everything into their POS system. Everything ordered is delicious: Shrimp & Pork Siu Mai Shrimp Rice Noodle Roll Sticky Rice Chicken in Lotus Leaf Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings Beef Ball with Bean Curd Skin Sesame Ball I've been here many times, and it's always reliable. There are many grandmas and grandpas dining here, which is generally the highest endorsement a dim sum place can get. Good food, generous portions, and great value for the price. read more

We started out the new year by having dim sum here today Monday around 11:00am. The restaurant was 1/2 full already. We ordered dim sum items off the order form which included pictures of each item. Everything was hot out of the kitchen. Only one little hiccup where we got someone else's rice noodle. We started eating it before the staff noticed wrong table. We paid for it of course. The only item I would skip next time is the spicy XLB. Otherwise all else good. We had a total of 14 items for the three of us. Good thing we worked out at the gym prior to coming. Tea $1.50 p/p. read more

Price to taste quality is more than fair here. Easily one of the most affordable dim sum restaurants in the city. The salted egg yolk pumpkin is quite good. Ha gao, siu mai and chicken feet meet expectations. My dad loves the quail and cha siu churng fun here. The fried tofu, fried rice and veggies are some of my favorites here. Service is fast. Restaurant is cramped. But it feels like going back to old school China. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. read more

My party of 4 arrived at dim sum club around 10am on a Saturday and were lucky to grab one of the last open tables. It was busy, and seating was a little tight, but nice and clear, warm and brightly lit inside. We ordered way too many things with a pen on the provided menu, and food came out at a steady pace. The menu is really extensive and includes all the dim sum classics and some items that you don't always see elsewhere! Standout items included the stuffed eggplant and lotus root, and the siu mai and har gow were also quite good. The duck dumpling seemed to be a specialty, and was tasty but didn't stand out as much as the other dishes. Everything overall was really good quality, and came out hot. Our tea was always refilled promptly, and overall service was quick and efficient. There are plenty of great dim sum places to frequent in SF, and Dim Sum Club is a great option - I'll likely add this to the rotation :) It's not as crowded as many of the other dim sum places may get, at least at 10 on a Saturday, though there did seem to be a line forming outside when we left at 11:30! read more

On a Friday afternoon I treat my mom and sis to dim sum!! We get seated immediately! :) there have been dim sum restaurant closures in the Sunset so this is a gem. I hope it stays open because it is good! It's comfortable in here. Not a big space but we enjoyed it. Everything we ordered was great especially the beef balls, stuffed green peppers, preserved egg and pork porridge and mango pudding!! My mom wanted to go back immediately and my sister gave it 9 out 10! Really good! We loved it!! read more

We were visiting SF and one thing my hubby always want is dim sum. We just didn't want to spend an arm and a leg for it. We heard of Dim Sum Club and never tried it. So why not? We were 2nd on the wait list and got seated within about 10 mins. Its a small cute little restaurant so no carts rolling around here. They give you a menu and pen, you mark what you want. They took our order quickly but food took a while to come out. Once it started coming, though, it was worth the wait, everything tasted great! My favorite was the chives and shrimp dumplings, the skin was a perfect thick/thinness, so fresh, full of flavor. We ordered two types of tripe, spicy and soy/ginger. The radishes was crispy on the outside and soft on the outside. The stuffed eggplant was surprisingly delicious, it had a crispy skin and sweet soy glaze with a little ball of minced plumped shrimp. The chicken feet were tender and seasoned just right. And of course you can't go wrong with thr basics of ha gow and siu mai. The food was delicious overall and not overpriced like a lot of dim sum spots in SF. Even with the slow timing, I'd still come back for the food alone. read more

Everything was nicely made and packed well, and mostly egg free (fam member has an egg allergy, and staff took the time to read through my order and let me know which items were safe, which I appreciated). They also have a good beef scallion cake roll, which I feel like is an item I don't see too often on dim sum restaurant menus. Pretty easy street parking for pickup on an early Sunday afternoon. read more

We came here for lunch. Everything was hot steamy and crispy. This restaurant does not serve woo quok/fried taro root. The 3 of us ordered 7 dishes and finished it all! Haw gao, siu mai, hom sui quok, chicken feet, veggie egg rolls and shrimp and leek dumplings. Everything was steamed and hot and savory. Delicious!! read more

My friends and I came here on Monday (Indigenous people's day) at 2pm, with lunch ending at 3pm. There were several parties inside but not too crowded, so we were easily seated. We ordered a variety of dishes - shu mai, XLB, sticky rice, turnip cake, stuffed eggplant, egg yolk buns, egg tart, pan fried pork bun. The food was solid for dimsum. I've had better XLB, turnip cake, egg tart, and sticky rice; but then i also loved the egg yolk bun and the shu mai. XLB the coating was a bit thicker than i am used to, the turnip cake could be a bit crispier, egg tart and sticky rice a bit more flavorful. However, I still enjoyed this meal! I heard this place can get crazy busy, so I was thankful we were easily able to get seated. Maybe you just have to come at off hours. This dim sum place gets the job done. read more

Service wasn't bad. We came when they were about to close midday. I could see this place feeling really crowded if they were crowded. Tables are not spaced very far.

I remember coming here last year and it was just okay. One of my mom's coworkers told her that they changed ownership, so she wanted to stop by again. There was a line out the door and we waited ~30 minutes. Once we were seated, it was just as cramped as I remembered. Our order: Hot tea: $1.50/person +We selected 菊花 Chrysanthemum, which was light, floral, and refreshing. +Tea cups were easy to hold. 蠔皇鮮竹卷 Bean Curd Roll with Oyster Sauce ($6.25): +Not too salty -Fell apart easily: They were loosely filled with bamboo shoots, carrots, and wood ear mushrooms. 牛腩腸粉煲 Beef Stew with Rice Noodle Roll Clay Pot ($13.55): -Beef was tough. -Rice noodles were stuck together. -Salty and greasy 蝦子燒賣皇 Shrimp & Pork Siu Mai ($6.95): +Topped w/shrimp roe +Not too salty -Compared to siu mai from other places, it was lacking shrimp. 火鸭粉果 Roasted Duck Dumplings ($7.75): +Wrapping was chewy and not too thick -Where was the roasted duck? It tasted like a vegetarian Chiu Chou Dumpling. 豉汁蒸鳳爪 Steamed Chicken Feet ($6.65): +The gelatinous feet were slightly salty, spicy, and sweet. -When it was placed on our table, it looked like a large portion but turns out they were split in 1/2. *Verdict: Average dim sum with terrible service. When we just sat down, the servers were rushing us to order tea before we even got a chance to look at the menu. When we asked them to refill our teapot, they took it away but forgot until we reminded them. Then, when we were still eating, a server put the check down. Not sure if he was the owner, but he came by twice to check if we put our card down yet. When he saw that we didn't yet, he tried to take away our plates even though we were still eating. My dad told him we were still eating and he finally stopped pestering us. read more

Came here on Father's Day and the wait was not bad for a party of 2 people. The most memorable item I ordered here was their soup dumplings (xlb). It was a mouthful of flavor and were piping hot! It tasted great with a little bit of vinegar and ginger. Their dim sum prices are also really reasonable. I also really enjoyed their ham sui gok! They were crispy and fresh. I have no complaints about their dim sum. I'd be more than happy to come back here for more dim sum. They give you a disposable menu for you to write down how many of each dish you would like. It is not a traditional dim sum place with a cart coming around, but servers here are attentive and it was easy to wave down and employee for any requests. Street parking only, but the restaurant is right in front of the L train. read more

We had the Shanghai soup dumplings, which was soupy and well made filling. The skin was a but thick, but still soft. The crispy shrimp rice noodle roll was really good. Its just like a shrimp rice roll except its got a crispy crust, providing that extra crunch. The fish porridge, was good and had a mild taste rather than that weird fishy taste. It gets busy here, so you need to capture their attention to get any service here. read more

It's been awhile since I ate here, but I can say that the dim sum, while a bit more expensive, still tastes quite good. It's still a popular neighborhood dim sum restaurant--there aren't many in the Sunset. We had a short wait, the downside because we were a party of 2, we were seated near the entrance, so we got a shot of wind every time the door opened. You get the order sheet after you are seated and check off what you want. The order comes fairly quickly, piping hot. Our dim sum tasted good and despite sitting behind door, I enjoyed my meal and plan on returning again in the future. read more

When you walk inside there's a little clipboard waiting for you to write down your time, name of party and how many people. It's a small busy seating section. Be on the look out if there's an open spot. You might be able to grab one! Service is really good! They give you a menu picture and a pen to check off or x mark the spot of what dim sum you want. Make sure you double check with the staff that they have all the food you wanted. They sometimes can forget. But same time it actually worked out because we were full. Came here last last Sunday.! Make sure you let the xiao long baos sit for a bit before biting it on it. The soup broth is super hot. It can burn! The potstickers with the duck is very Memorable for me!! Never had something like that before and the duck was so tender and soft and wasn't dry. And it was so flavorful!! There were mushrooms in it too. Food is very good!! We were able to take some home for leftovers!! read more

This was my first time trying Dim Sum Club and the results were mixed. We came for dim sum around lunch on a Saturday and the place was packed. We wrote our name on the list and had to wait almost an hour for a table for 4. The food and service started out really good. These were the items we ordered that were good - shrimp and pork siu mai, Shanghai soup dumplings (6 pieces), pan fried turnip cake, deep fried sesame balls, Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce, and bean curd roll with oyster sauce. These items were not good - all the fried food. 1. salt and pepper tofu - the oil used was old and the tofu was too dark. 2. The salt and pepper squid - the texture of the squid was tough and very hard to chew. Not enjoyable at all. 3. rice noodle roll with shrimp (flavor was good, but the skin was all squished together and falling apart). The vegetarian dumplings and the pan fried vegetable potstickers are the exact same dumpling, but prepared two different ways. One is steamed and one is pan fried. A little misleading as we should have just ordered one. Towards the end of the meal, the service was lacking and it took forever to get and pay the bill. The place was packed and they were probably short staffed. The atmosphere was busy as staff was bustling around and the front area was packed with waiting customers. Overall, the food was mixed, the service was mixed, and the wait was too long. read more

Another dim sum adventure! You this this place is good when the seats fill up the second the doors open. Kind of a small place. Just goes t show, they focus on quality over quantity. We got a mish mash of the usual dim sum dishes. I cant really think of anything to say, other than everything was delicious!!! I especially liked the pan fried soup dumpling, and it came with individual spoons for it too! The baked bbq pork bun is a personal fav of mine across all dim sum places. Overall, highly recommend. If there's a line, start waiting. read more

Went here for dim sum after our next-door neighbors said it was their go-to out in. Sunset. Enjoyed it so much that we came here twice in one week. The food was wonderful, delicious and so fresh. The baked BBQ pork buns just came out of the oven and thr steamed BBQ pork buns fresh out of the steamers. The filling was the best. It took me back to my childhood and they were piping hot and super flavorful. We also had the steamed shrimp dumpling, pot stickers and pot stickers with some duck filling and water chestnuts and Chinese radish. The deep-fried shrimp balls were good as well. Like I said we hit this place and were not disappointed. The restaurant opens at 10:30 and it's a good idea to get there no later than 11:30 to avoid a wait. read more

I went to dim sum club with my partner towards 8pm and was happily seated! We were craving a juicy-soupy fried pork dumpling and we were not disappointed! Dishes came out relatively fast and was sort of hole in the wall; so you know this place is gonna HIT! (Especially because there was groups of older people with the lazy Susan tables near us so you know it's good!) Price wise; for a sit down dim sum restaurant the pricing is relatively affordable especially with the abundance of chow mein, meant to be shared with your table! Shu Mai (pork + shrimp) very juicy and thicc! 4/5, would love to try the other dim sum classics like rice rolls or har gao next time. The filling was very generous and easily filled up a party of two House special Combination Chow Mein 3.5/5 The only thing missing was some sort of spice or kick, we should've asked for chili oil and then this would've been a 5/5. I think it could also make do with more protein... I only saw like three pieces of shrimp and 5 pieces of pork! Noodles were bouncy and the flavors hit though. FRIED SOUP PORK BUNS 5/5- SO GOOD YOU NEED TO ORDER IT! Overall, simply satisfied. Great flavors, the soup buns were the star of the show! read more

Great portions and taste. Their Mongolian beef was so tender and juicy. The chow mein packed the right flavors. Seafood tofu soup is mid. Dim sums are average, nothing mind blowing.

All of the dim sum were pretty standard. The siu mai had whole pieces of shrimp. The chicken feet were flavorful. The pork ribs were tender with taro. The pea sprouts were slightly tough and salty. The pan fried roasted pork cake was mostly dough, so I wouldn't order it again. My personal favorites were the bean curd roll and the soft stuffed eggplant with a crispy outer layer. We (party of 2) had to wait for around 15 minutes for a table on a Sunday morning. The restaurant is quite small so be prepared to have to wait in line if you go during peak times.

We made reservations here for the weekend, but it didn't seem the matter we had to wait for a table to open up and thr server didn't seem to care. They didn't even check in their system to confirm my reservation and just gave us the table. You order off the menu and hand it to the server, so there's no push carts here. Most of their dim sum was decent. The only dish I liked was the beef crepe and the crispy shrimp crepe. If you order the porridge, it's huge! It can feed up to six or more people in my opinion. We ordered so much, our table was running out for space. The plus side is that they serve dim sum all day, so if you are craving it for dinner this is the place for you. read more

You order by marking how many dishes you want for a particular dish. Food was great. Parking can be troublesome out here. read more

Finally tried Dim Sum Club after booking it for years! This place served dim sum all day and the selections were listed on their regular menu. Their dim sum dishes were authentic, tasty, but very pricey. Most dim sum dishes were over $7 for a standard small to medium size. Other dim sum restaurants charges between $4-6 for a small. The inside of the restaurant looked long but crowded between tables. The workers were quick to seat us on the table, but were super slow at taking down our order. The server even missed our selected vermicelli noodle on the back sheet. Did not want to wait any longer since my sister and I, along with my two boys (one infant, one toddler) waited a while for food, so we just ate the seven dim sum dishes we ordered! The siu mai and sticky rice wrapped inside a lotus leaf were better than a lot of dim sum restaurants in the Bay Area! Super flavorful! Their beef noodle rolls were smooth and fresh. My sister normally did not like beef rolls but she enjoyed theirs. I thought their roasted duck dumplings and the roasted duck potstickers were unique, quite good, and reminded us of the ChiuZhou fun gor (a particular dumpling with chopped veggies, nuts, and meat inside). I liked their roasted duck dumplings more than their roasted duck potstickers. The lava bun was fresh and tasted like any other dim sum restaurants. Pork ribs were very good as well, savory but on the sweeter end! Other-all, food was yummy, parking was not bad, but super slow services. Probably would just order their food to go next time, since I did not like flies hanging around while I eat, and the service was too slow to eat out with young children.
