Looking for the best deal on Uber Eats came across this place. Buy One Get One FREE! Since free is my middle name I went with it. I ordered the Pork with rice. Packaged in deep bowls my food was hot upon arrival. Utensils came with it including some chopstick. I wish they would've threw in some condiments like soy and or duck sauce even some hot sauce or chilli pepper. But whatever, the food was good without it. It was strips of pork belly, a huge portion of white rice and baby buck choy. Very tasty and I had enough food for lunch at work for 2 days. Can't beat that! read more

Dim Sum Sam - Roast pork rice bowl - Barbeque Near Me - New York, New York

Food: 3.3/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Overall: 3.4/5 I think this is a perfectly serviceable Dim Sum place, but there are quite a few flaws with their menu. I won't point out any particular dish as being awful or exceptional, because that's the problem I have with this place overall. Nothing stands out in any sort of way. Everything here kind of just tastes the same, which bothers me because the flavor profile of these dishes should all be tasting vastly different. Most of the dishes carry this overwhelmingly strong oil taste, especially in their fried meats, that kind of just makes them all taste kind of mediocre. The typical Dim Sum dishes, while serviceable, just kind of feels rushed flavor wise with little care put into them, leading them to taste kind of like nothing. The only dish that I would actively order is their noodle, which carries a more distinct light yet rich flavor that complements their noodles, but even then I feel as though the meat and egg feel like afterthoughts in the dish that don't really add to it in any way. The last problem I have with this place is their sauce station, which though kind of them to offer quite a few sauces to add to your dim sum, is just a really messy and unsanitary area which threw off my meal. I wanted to like this place, given that I love eating dim sum, but this wasn't it for me. read more

Was craving some wonton soup and didn't want to go all the way to Chinatown, so stopped by here. When you enter, you can order at the kiosk. You walk down the hall and are able to sit yourself wherever you please. Now for the food: - For sides/apps, I got the scallion pancake and shrimp rolls. Both were 4/5. I wish the scallion pancakes tasted a bit more fresh but both had good flavor. - I would give the wonton soup a 2/5 - the broth lacked flavor. Because of this, the noodles also didn't have flavor. The wonton had shrimp in them, and I also think that it could have used a bit more flavor. - I got the roasted pork which I really enjoyed. Full of flavor, not dry at all. I would recommend getting this. read more

A great place to grab some dinner before the show or after since they open until late. You order on the kiosk and then pick a seat in the back. You can pick any available space to sit. It's quite spacious back there. They will call your number to pick up the food. They have a screen in the back with the order number being called. They have a condiment station with chili oil, soy sauce, sriracha. The chopsticks, forks, spoons are in the drawers. You clean up after yourself when you finish eating since it's self-serve. I like their wonton and beef stew noodle soups. It comes with fresh green vegetables. Very tasty. They have rice rolls. I got the shrimp rice roll. That was very good. It came with fresh green vegetables also, a plus. They also have congee. It has small bits of meat in it, but it's still very good congee base and satisfies cravings. You have to ask for white pepper at the front register. I didn't see it at the condiment station. As a snack or part of the combo, they have egg tarts. That was just ok. I'm too full to also eat that with the meal anyways. For drinks, the HK milk tea, especially the hot one, is very good. I got it without sugar. Their soy milk and iced lemon tea is also very good. Congee or rice roll with a drink is great for breakfast or late meal since they open early 8am and close late midnight in the W40th theater area. Very solid place to grab some food. read more

Nice and clean inside with plenty of seating in the back. They have dim sum as well as your standard Chinese bbq items like roast duck, roast pork, and cha siu. I guess the prices are normal for NYC... meaning high vs most other places. Having grown up in LA around good dim sum and being lucky enough to try dim sum across Asia I'd say the food here is average. read more

BLUF: Don't order the dim-sum. Our first visit to Dim Sum Sam 金滿庭 in Midtown could have went better. One trick to having a good meal at an unfamiliar restaurant is to attempt to observe most other people are having before placing one's order. In this case, we should have observed that most customers during our visit seemed to order noodles and noodle soups, not dim sum. The ordering process follows a fast-casual format -- order at the counter or at one of the two kiosks next to the counter. Then get a seat, wait for your number to be called (in Mandarin and English), and pick up your order at the counter. We ordered two things to start, but were glad we left it at that. The dim sum here could have been better, especially considering the price. - Minced Beef Rice Noodle Roll 牛肉腸粉: $6.50; $7.08 with tax. Yuck. A not fresh, fishy 腥 odor / taste. - Shu Mai 燒賣: $7.75; $8.44 with tax. Meh. Factory-made, relatively small, lean. Seating is cafeteria style. Condiments, plastic cutlery and disposable wooden chopsticks are available at a centrally located table in the seating area. The seating area is brightly lit and very clean. There is a well-maintained unisex restroom with ADA grab bars -- request the key from counter staff. read more

Pretty standard dim sum. We got the combo as well as some items a la carte. The best thing was definitely the crispy roast pork. The fat was rendered to perfection and the skin was crispy. They got a bathroom so thats a plus. Its pretty much self serve - you order at the kiosk, get your own food and utensils. read more

Love this new spot in the city. I'm always craving Hong Kong food and this spot opening up by my gym is a life saver. Their congee is probably my favorite thing. It has lots of pieces of century egg and pork. If you're not into ginger, you can pick it out. Hong Kong milk tea is a staple. I also love that you can. Buy the combos that come with a iced tea and am egg tart. The vibes are just a cafeteria style and I feel right at home talking loudly like at dim sum. read more

The food here is delicious and authentic! We liked it enough that we went back for breakfast the next day! The duck was so juicy and crispy, and the broth in the dumplings was very tasty. The congee for breakfast was delicious as served but even better after adding chili sauce and soy sauce. We even took out the special to have later for lunch. Amazing food! Service was quick. The ambience was akin to a quick eat food hall, allowing you to sit and enjoy the food after picking it up from the counter. It was clean and well stocked. read more

We ordered the pork set, wonton soup, shumai, and duck. The meat for the pork was very dry; probably because we came an hour before closing, so it probably sat out for a while. The duck itself was okay, but the duck sauce was not great. The wonton soup and shumai, however, was pretty good. The place is self-serve, which is nice. The place could be cleaner, but it's most likely reliant primarily on the customers to clean up after themselves. read more

Cuisine: 7 Service: 6 Decor: 7 Value: 6 Overall: 7 Can you find authentic Chinese cuisine near Time Square? The answer is yes. Prices are certainly higher than Chinatown or Flushing as expected, but this Cantonese restaurant serving comfort foods a few blocks away from the brightest lights in NYC is legit. Everything we ordered was pretty good and satisfied a late night craving after a Broadway show. It's not the best quality you can find in NYC, but way better than I expected. Minor complaints would be that the Roast Duck was a bit over seasoned and the Minced Beef Rice Roll was falling apart slightly because it was mildly mushy. However, the Shu Mai and Shrimp & Pork Wonton Noodles were solid. Though the cost of the meal is higher than what I'm use to for Chinese food in other neighborhoods of NYC, I would not hesitate to eat here when I am in the area looking for a comforting meal. read more

Dim Sum Sam offers decent prices (especially for the location) and solid food, but the ambiance leaves a lot to be desired. The space is lit with harsh white fluorescent lighting, giving it a cafeteria-like feel, and the lack of windows makes it feel a bit gloomy and closed off- not a nice experience for our last dinner in NYC. Food-wise, most dim sum items we got were generally good (not the best dim sum, not the worst). The Hong Kong egg tart, shumai, and shrimp dumpling was very good. The pork rice roll was good as well, but didn't have enough filling IMO. On the flip side, the cucumber dish was a miss, as it lacked flavor and wasn't properly prepared. There was also another steamed dumpling thing that got stuck to the try, breaking when we pulled it out. One nice touch is that the sauces are out for you to get. Overall, it's a functional spot for a quick dim sum fix, especially if you're focused on the food and not the vibe. Just don't expect atmosphere-it's more grab-and-go. read more

Dim Sum Sam you are fast, quick, and tasty! If you are craving some Asian food this is the spot. They are busy and kind of hectic but the food is legit. The dim sum here is delicious and the noodles are tasty! I wanted a different type of noodle but they were already sold out for the day. But even the egg noodles were nice and springy. This is pretty much a fast casual spot with a few other locations around New York. I would totally come back here for their food it was just that good. read more

I got the pork and century egg congee plus the buddah delight dumplings through Uber Eats. The prices were pretty affordable even with the mark ups. It was packaged very well, nothing spilled upon arrival. The congee was very big and had a lot of toppings inside. I had leftovers. It was very flavourful, hot and tasty. Totally hit the spot. The buddah delight dumplings were good too, all the right toppings inside. It was a little bland though, the side of soy sauce and chili oil helped. It was steamed well and hot when I received them. read more

If you're around the Times Square area, this is one of the best affordable spots if you're looking for authentic Chinese food. It's a counter-service restaurant. For two people, we ordered the Two Combo (roast pork and crispy pork) over rice and Combo A (which included four different dim sum items, an egg tart, spicy cucumber, and lemon iced tea). You won't regret choosing these two orders. They were all delicious. There's plenty of seating available in the back, and the food doesn't take long to arrive. read more

I was honestly walking to eat somewhere else and saw a sign for some crazy meal deals. But it wasn't until I was inside where I landed on the Roast Duck Over Rice which is also an insane NYC bargain in my opinion. This is a super casual spot with plenty of people ordering to-go but the dining area has limited seating as well with a self-serve station for disposables. Order at the register or at the kiosk and your food will be out fairly fast! The duck was fantastic with crispy skin and I loved the veggies and egg too. Loaded with rice underneath that gets soaked with some of that leftover flavor. I need to come back to try the pork next! read more

Dim Sum Sam - Roast Duck Over Rice - Barbeque Near Me - New York, New York

We decided to go to toy fair in NYC this weekend, search around for dinner place and found this gem. From the outside it looks small but it actually has decent dining area in the back. When you first enter there are order kiosk, so you ordered there and paid and you get a number. You wait in the dining room until your number get called. We like it so much we decided to come back again for breakfast AND bought meal to go for lunch. Regretting not buying more for dinner at the airport lol. For dinner we got 1/4 roasted duck and dumplings (roasted duck and crab). Sooo delicious and flavorful. The skin of the duck also very crispy. I'm drooling just writing this. When we realized this place open at 8 of course we had to comeback for breakfast. For breakfast we opt to get roasted pork and thousand year egg congee. It was good but nothing top the roasted duck. It was a good portion for $9 ish. I would like to be more thicker as well but overall we still enjoy it. We also get the scallion pancakes. The scallion pancakes need a little sauce a bit lacking of flavor but nice and crispy. Then for the to go lunch we decided on their dumplings special. 2 pcs of Buddha dumplings (mixed vegetables), 2 pcs mushrooms dumplings, 2 egg rolls, 2 Portuguese egg tart, scallions pancakes and cucumber salad plus lemon tea (all for $23.99!)I'm not a vegetarian but these are delicious! If I ever in the area again I definitely will go to this place again. read more

If heaven serves dim sum, it probably looks like this. The siu mai was juicy and flavorful -- that perfect pork-shrimp combo with a pop of roe on top. The xiao long bao? Brothy little miracles. Handle with care unless you want a soup facial. Even the gai lan was on point -- crisp, bright, and soaking in that umami-rich soy sauce. And don't sleep on the braised beef rice bowl -- melt-in-your-mouth beef, tender daikon, and rice that soaked up all that savory goodness like a champ. Everything came out fresh and hot, service was quick, and portions were solid. You can tell they care about quality -- not just turning tables. read more

Getting in and out of Dim Sum Sam can be difficult, as the queue is near the door, but the eating area is inside. I will say, though, that their location being near the heavy foot traffic in Port Authority Bus Transit AND a convenient alternative to Chinatown may make it heavily frequented. I stopped by finally on a weekend night after seeing those Portuguese Tarts stare at me. Dessert? I shouldn't, but fine! They were so creamy with the perfectly roasted top and thin crust. I also had an order of their Hong Kong Style Milk Tea, and it was amazing, exactly like I had tasted straight from Hong Kong. Service as you could expect, was fast and efficient. Quick in, quick out. read more

They were packed during lunchtime, but orders are flying out of the kitchen. The congee was really flavorful & toppings weren't skimpy. As a lunch spot, it's super no frills, so don't expect much service wise. Do check for utensils/napkins before leaving for takeout orders!! read more

Fast causal dim sum place that also serves soup noodles and Cantonese BBQ meats. Upon entering it looks small, but there is a good amount of seating in the back. There is also an upstairs section. After ordering, you can sit down and wait for your number to be called. The food was pretty decent. The shrimp dumplings and beef rice noodle roll were delicious and fresh. There is extra sauce you can use by the self serve utensils counter. The chicken feet was ok. It was nice and tender but could use more flavor. Overall, a good place to have a quick meal or snack in the area. read more

I really love wontons and when I'm in Manhattan, I stop here for some big, plump, and juicy wontons. The skin is silky soft and the filling is flavorful and "crunchy." These are shrimp and pork dumplings and the ratio of shrimp to pork is about 50/50. I also very much enjoy the cold chicken. It's shredded and well marinated. The menu here is nostalgic Cantonese and they do it very well. I've had the siu mai and bao buns in the past and they are also good, but I always go back to my favorite wontons. Service is fast. Casual. They have a big dine in space. Please come and create your own adventure. read more

Genuinely not bad at all for a Times Square eat. I feel like the food near Times Square is always overpriced and not great but Dim Sum Sam was actually quite good. We got here for a weekday dinner and we were able to get a table quickly after placing our order. I ordered the Roast Duck Noodle Soup and it was quite good. I liked the rich broth paired with the Hong Kong style noodles. The duck also had the subtle sweetness to it although some parts were not super tender. I didn't care much for the vegetables in the dish. It was a solid noodle soup. Overall, not a bad eat at all especially if you're in the area. Something I thought was weird was that they placed a NYC sales tax on all the food which I feel like I haven't seen elsewhere. It seemed to be the same type of tax that you would get for buying clothes. read more

A solid stop for affordable and tasty dim sum. I tried the crispy pork belly over rice, duck puffs, and egg tarts. The pork belly is excellent; the skin is perfectly crispy, and the bowl is finished off nicely with pickles and an egg. The duck puffs were something new; similar to taro puffs in texture but with a duck filling. The egg tarts were a pleasant surprise-- very tasty and individually wrapped for convenience. Service is quick and straightforward; this is take-out dim sum. You place your order at the counter and wait for it to be prepared. One thing to note: no water is provided if you choose to dine in. While the flavors aren't extraordinary, they're consistently good, and the prices are very reasonable. read more

The restaurant itself is beautiful. A fresh and vibrant vibe of light colored wood and gold accented marble tables. There's a quick order kiosk and cashier in the front and numbers are called when you're food is ready. I went with a group of ladies who happen to LOVE Dumpling dives. Annnnnnd this place didn't disappoint. Everything came out hot and aesthetically pleasing. Here's what I loved: crispy pork belly bowl & pork and crab soup dumpling. The pork was crispy on the outside and the meat itself was juicy. I've never had something with two textures like this before. It was delicious! There was a sauce lightly drizzled on the meat and rice. The vegetables sliced on the side of the bowl were Crunchy (which I love) and very tasty. I've never tried the thinly sliced veggies before but found it to be really good. In the same, glory I'll mention the pork and crab soup dumplings. Which were very tasty. The filling had the perfect amount of meat and the soup was delicious. So, i didn't like the sweet pork buns because of the fluffy texture of the dough. I tried it and knew that it wasn't for me. I enjoyed the filling which was sweet and memorable. However, the ladies I went with totally enjoyed them and said they were absolutely delicious. Also, the spicy mushroom dumpling was delicious also. It has a perfect chew to spice ratio that compliments the flavor. read more

I got the two meats noodle soup with wonton and roast pork while my friend got the wonton noodle soup. The wontons were huge and succulent with snappy shrimp and savory pork. The roast pork was so tender and fatty and melt in your mouth! I did wish it was saltier but that could be due to it sitting in the soup. The noodles were also cooked perfectly and the veggies have a good crunch and freshness with all the meat. A perfect place to stop by for a quick lunch in midtown! read more

This place has good bones; the capacity to be an amazing Chinese food experience. However it misses the mark a bit. First the good: the location near Times Square is PERFECT for drawing in tourists. In fact while I was there I saw two groups of tourists arrive. The price - for a restaurant near Times Square - is actually very reasonable. It's a clean and spacious space. Second the mediocre: while the space is clean, it's so bright and so white that it feels like a high school cafeteria. It doesn't feel like a restaurant serving home cooked meals. It feels cold and anesthetic. The food itself is a hit or miss. Half of our meal was absolutely delicious, the other half was just okay. For example the shumai felt as if they had been frozen and microwaved. However the duck was delicious. Third the bad: customer service. There was not a single smile by any employee in the place. Service felt robotic. A tourist in front of me commented to the cashier about his best dim sum experience in Hong Kong and she didn't even acknowledge him. A small formality but definitely makes a difference. This place needs some tweaking to become a really good restaurant. read more

While enroute to my hotel after picking up my bib number and t-shirt for NYRR United Airlines NYC Half Marathon, this Dim Sum Sam instantly caught my eye as I walked down 40th Avenue towards my hotel, DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel New York Times Square West. As much as I love pizza, Dim Sum Sam was something different yet still a convenient option for a quick bite like the many pizza options in the surrounding area. I ended up ordering vegetable spring rolls for takeout which I was deeply satisfied with once I arrived back at my hotel. I had a pleasant ordering experience with this Dim Sum Sam location. And as I indicated, I enjoyed the vegetable spring rolls ordered. I would surely visit again whenever staying in the area. ~Have courage. Be Kind. ~ Thomas G read more

With Tim Ho Wan no longer in the area, this is a decent affordable dim sum and lunch spot. It's self-service, you order at the counter and they call you to pick up your food when it's ready. There is a decent size dinning area in the back that is very brightly lit. They have stations for you to get your own sauces and utensils and you clean up after yourself when you are done. I really liked this place more when it first open because it was really clean but it has gotten a little run down over the years. Not everyone is good about pick up after themselves and the staff doesn't come around frequent enough to keep the dinning area tidy. I like their roast pork over rice and the have two combos that offers a good variety of dim sum and a tart that can easily feed 2 or more people. The staff is always friendly and they tend to get lots of mobile orders so it can take some time to get your food after placing your order. read more

It is hard to find authentic dim sum, Chinese bakery/eatry esque food in non-Chinatown areas. This is their 3rd location, there are another one at 23rd St and another one in Chinatown. This spot hits the spot with its decent spread of offerings such as fresh soy milk (hot or cold), steamed rice rolls with many types of fillings and various kind of congees, etc. I love their steamed seafood rice rolls, plenty of shrimps and scallops in there. Same with their seafood congee, it is piping hot every time, and you have to get it with fried dough (youtiao), perfect pairing with any congee or soy milk. Their Portuguese egg tart is so buttery and creamy, I had it delivered, and it was still hot as if it was packed right after it came out of the oven. read more
