A couple lunch selections.
Steven P.

Huge menu, great selection and variety, and easy to find location. Would def go back again!

Trays for Siew Mai
Susan L.

After dozens of times driving to this place and it looked closed, I decided to try again this past week. This store has been open for 35 years and they cater to restaurants too, so you'll know you'll get freshness and restaurant quality food. The lady was so helpful and friendly. She explained most items simply needs 14 minutes to steam, while the har gow only needs 10 minutes. Such a great deal with busy work life and my weekends brunches are going to be amazing. We had some of this morning for New Years brunch. Har Gow were flavorful and packed with meaty shrimp. The Pork Siew Mai were tender and meaty, just like the ones you get from restaurants. Both had the perfect texture and delicious. Hits the spot when craving for dim sum.

The dim sum offerings
Lina W.

I took home and tried the following frozen items: - Shrimp Dumpling (20 pc) for $8.50 - Pork Siu Mai (20 pc) for $7.50 - Bean Curd Wrap Pork Roll (20 pc) for $8.50 - Xiao long bao - aka Mandarin dumpling (20 pc) for $7.50 - Pork pot sticker (20 pc) for $7.50 - BBQ Pork Bun (6 pc) for $4.50 Price point wise, they're the best deal around. The next time I come back, I will purchase the pork siu mai, Xiao long bao, and the pork pot stickers again which were the tastiest items. Then walk a couple blocks south to Dim-Dim to purchase the shrimp dumplings and the shrimp & pork siu mai. Note that the xiao long bao does not have the soup inside like a traditional XLB when cooked. It's just a tasty pork meatball (MSG laden obviously) inside a tasty chewy wrapper. What I didn't enjoy were DSH's shrimp dumplings, which were not as plump and the wrapper were not as high quality and delicate as the ones sold at Dim-Dim. The bean curd wrap was very greasy and gave me stomach pain. The BBQ pork bun was similar to eating cardboard. No place is perfect, but they have some tasty offerings and I'll be making a stop soon to pick up some dumplings for late night snack or dim sum brunch at home.

So glad to have been recommended to this place. Dim Sum house is a tiny shop in a corner of Chinatown under the bridge, on a one way street where most people won't pass by. Yet they hold what many people love, DIM SUM! Now we can have delicious Dim Sum at home and at a fraction of the cost! 20 pork Sui Mai costs only $7.5! Now instead of one tub each, we can have 20 Sui Mai each :D

Really good quality dim sum for incredible value. If you love dim sum and want some good quality dim sum at home, this place has exactly where you need to go. We usually get the shumai. You get 20 pieces of shumai for only 7.50$! That is a steal when you consider that in most dim sum places you get 4-5 pieces only for like $4-$5. The taste is really good too for the value. We try the other options they have every now and then too and are never disappointed. We come back to re-stock our freezer for their magical & cheap but yummy dim sum often ever since we first came here. Totally recommend this place without hesitation.

Delicious food and good price. If you like dim sum and will be able cooking from home, this is a nice place to buy.

Steaming the pork shu mai & shrimp hargow at home!
Khin Y.

What a gem! So glad we found this little place. It is right outside of Chinatown but easy to find. As soon as you walk in, this sweet lady with a biggest smile greets you and you are presented with ALL THE DELICIOUS DIMSUM. Everything is nicely packed + frozen so that you can easily take it home to steam it & savor on them whenever you please. They have a good variety of selections starting from Pork Shu Mai, Shrimp Hargow, Turnip Cakes, Potstickers to Bean Curd Rolls! You get 20 pieces - priced at $4-$8 each. All I can say is, WOW! We will be back to try more!

The selection.

There were a few small two tops, but mostly those big round family size tables with the giant center lazy susans. Got a paper menu for dim sum items and a regular menu. Had to go with the dim sum goodies since it had so many things we'd never seen in any Michigan Chinese restaurants. Sweet walnut buns, fried bean curd skins filled with deliciousness, brisket with rice noodles that looked like Korean rice cakes, meatloaf, and more. Everything was outstanding, with various sauces presented with different items. This was new for us as well. A deep red vinegar with some fried dumplings, a tasty black sauce with the fried stuffed bean curd skins, a sweet plum sauce with the fried skinny shrimp rolls, it was really fun food. They have a barista making coffee, espresso and even milk tea, but the wait was like 10 minutes. Clean restaurant with very good service. Wish we lived closer so we could make it regular stop.

I ate a little bit of dim sum, general tso's chicken, fried rice, green beans, shumai, and more. All items were solid. However, nothing was extraordinarily excellent, so this place is wonderful for large groups or small groups. Food and service is always speedy.

The Triple Crown Restaurant in Chinatown is absolutely worth the trip!…read more There was a wait (they don't take reservations), but it moved quickly and wasn't long at all. The restaurant was packed -- every seat full -- which is always a good sign. We were seated by the window, which made for a great dining spot. The restaurant was lively with large and small groups of people. The wait staff was attentive and efficient, quickly clearing tables and responding to any requests. The food was excellent. We ordered noodles, rice, hot sour soup and dumplings. One thing to note: portions are served family-style and are large enough to share. We originally thought we were each ordering individual plates, but everything came out perfect for the table. No complaints though -- we all left with leftovers, and honestly, it tasted just as good the next day warmed up! I ordered an Old Fashioned, and it was perfectly made. The appetizers were a bit on the smaller side but very flavorful -- you may want to order more than one for the table. The only downside had nothing to do with the restaurant itself -- parking in Chinatown can be a challenge. However, if you dine at a participating restaurant, you can get your parking validated for $3, which definitely helps. Overall, it was a great experience, and we would definitely return.

While the service is lovely, you should expect less western style service. They are efficient and get you quality dishes at great prices, but they may come in an unexpected order. The older clientele to this place are loyal and for good reason. I would recommend you experiment with the menu! Try a few classics like the shrimp dumplings or mango pudding and get a few new items like the taro cake or the chicken feet.

They serve all day dim sum but decided to go with family style. It was Valentine's Day late evening and the dishes we wanted to order (Peking Duck and Roast Pig) were sold out. So we ordered another dish and they asked if they can substitute an ingredient because they were out of it. They served a large bowl of rice to share instead of individual bowls. Portions were decent but all our dishes were delicious! Service was friendly and attentive. Parking is available at Chinatown Parking by the Metro and they can validate your parking ticket for the discount. Will have to come back one day to try dim sum.

They have other Chinese staples too, but let's not kid ourselves, you come and come back again for the noodle soup. And they have PLENTY of different options of it to choose from. It's a small place and off the beaten path a bit, so get there before the lunch rush. Owners are super nice and welcoming. I discovered it on the walking food tour we did and I came back for more!

This family-run spot is quaint and doesn't offer much in terms of interior decor and lighting. The entrance is also fully covered in a decal, which makes it easy to walk right by this spot. The food makes up for some of these shortcomings. This is the familiar Cantonese cooking that is comfort food for many. The stir-fried noodles in particular are a must. There are rice dishes, soups, and more to choose from and you can't really go wrong with anything. The soup is my least favorite of these due to the broth lacking depth, but the wontons were good. The XO sauce stir-fried noodles with beef was my favorite. If you're looking for something casual with affordable dishes, Yummy Yummy is worth checking out.
