Beautiful staff, delicious food and of course the ambiance is terrific . We had a large party and they accommodated us for every request. The food is absolutely wonderful. read more

The Good: Great tasting authentic dim sum. Also, chow fun and fried rice. Wait was not too bad during lunch. The Bad: On a busy street, so you walk there during lunch fighting with everyone for space! The Ugly: Waiter needs to learn to have some etiquette. He dumped one of our dim sum items onto another container without asking or knowing that we had similar looking items with a different ingredient for a reason. read more

Went to Dim Sum Garden on Lexington Ave for brunch on a Sunday. I had frequently visited their former location in Flushing, but since that one closed, i went to try this one. They do all you can eat dim sum for $30 per person. We made reservations so we were seated immediately. You order by checking boxes off a paper menu. The selection is significantly smaller than at their other location, but they have many of the same items. My stand out favorites were the xiao long bao, pork and shrimp shumai, and soy sauce chicken feet. The only thing i would not get again was the warm lettuce with oyster sauce. The food came out pretty quick, but they have a tendency to "forget/lose" some of the items in the order. I had to ask on the status of certain items multiple times before I actually got them. Not bad for AYCE dim sum, considering the price per menu items at the more popular dim sum places lately. read more

My friend and I have become boringly predictable. When I'm in NYC we meet Mondays at Saint Peter's Church, then search out lunch specials in the area. Today's choice: Dimsum Garden. For $12.99 you get a bowl of soup, either a spring roll or sesame ball, choice of entree and rice. I wouldn't designate five stars if this restaurant was based in Chinatown, but it's great as a midtown lunch stop, available till 3:30 weekdays. My hot & sour had the right amount of zing, though the broth was a bit thin. I asked for chicken and vegetables to be prepared moderately spicy. It was! And unlike restaurants that charge extra for brown rice, they don't here, at least at lunch. Dimsum Garden is modern. The staff is accommodating. Our booth was comfortable as G and I sat and chatted for almost two hours. read more

Service was quiet but polite. I think there's a language barrier. The place was immaculately clean, bright and comfortable. The menu is a bit overwhelming if you're not familiar with dumplings. (Like me). So I just picked the sampler box with sixteen different ones. Only one was not my taste. Too sweet. But they were all freshly made and great. I will probably go back again for lunch tomorrow. They have an all you can eat lunch special!! read more

I think I'd wanna come back for regular dim sum rather than AYCE because service was really slow that it didn't feel like we really got a lot of dim sum. The dimsum was actually super fresh and really good but it was a little annoying that other tables got their dimsum more consistently vs ours. Some of the things we ordered never came or there were stretches where we were waiting on a lot of food. I didn't take pictures of everything but my friends and I (party of 6) came here so we ended up sharing almost everything on the menu read more

Tried the restaurants $29 ayce deal, which features a collection of the dimsum staples, a few specialty dimsum items, and some other Cantonese rice/noodle dishes. I see that other reviewers complained of the speed in the past, but I had an expedient experience while there. The dimsum was delicious, and comparable to the Chinatown restaurants. The carb dishes included in the ayce are also pretty tasty, but note that the portions are big so probably should beware to not over order! read more

I was able to book a table for 9 on open table app, the day before of arrival. The restaurant is kept clean and cozy. You get attentive service. The food is good and satisfies your craving. I love the idea of dim sum bento box that gets you to try 9 different types of dim sum, however there are definitely a few pieces I knew I would not like, and sure I did not like them after trying. So I would say stick to a regular menu! Overall decent dim sum and the location is awesome being so close to Grand Central. read more

I got the Signature Dimsum Platter delivered and it was a good amount of food! It was BOGO, though so definitely worth the price. The shrimp dumplings were definitely really shrimpy but decent. My favorites were the black truffle with mushroom, roasted duck, beef roll, and sesame ball! I do wish it was easier to figure out which item was which but I'd order this (BOGO) again. read more

Dimsum Garden - Signature Dimsum Platter 九宫格点心 - Dim Sum Near Me - New York, New York

Visiting the Big Apple this weekend, and craving something quick. I was craving Dim Sum and glad to know there was one near the hotel. When you walk in it was nice cozy modern decore and busy. The service was spot on. They have all you can eat price or A la carte. I opt for take out, and ordered "Shrimp w/pork shumai and stuffed shrimp eggplant" You can never go wrong with the Shuman, but the sauce for the stuffed eggplant I was not impressed. It was just black bean sauce on it. So next time I will just have it without the sauce. I will come back if I am ever in the area and just want something quick, but knowing me I will probably try other establishments. read more

Dimsum Garden - Dim Sum Near Me - New York, New York

When you leave the area for your birthday, you end of having multiple belated birthday moments due to everyone wanting to do something with you. My second birthday celebration with friends was brunch for an all you can eat dim sum moment for $30 for 90 min per person. The only thing is that you need to all be doing the all you can eat. It was close to my apartment and I wanted to try it out. The service was so sweet. They allowed us to cut a cake my friend brought for me and even played happy birthday music. Also, they gave us containers for us to split the cake. Sometimes Asian restaurants are so generous even though most of the times they are not. This was the sometimes. There is a good variety of food to choose from for the AYCE. It is best practice to order three dishes per person each round and if you order a bunch and don't finish it, they will charge you menu cost of the item you wasted. I thought this was bogus, but it does reduce waste and the food comes out very shortly after you place in your order. It is not the best dim sum, but it is above average dim sum and the price is very good for midtown Manhattan. I already have plans going here this weekend with another friend for brunch. read more

The food was awesome and certainly meets New York City standards. The service was horrible. I literally waited more time for the check than I did eating the food . Eventually the only way I could get their attention was to walk up to the front desk. Dining advise: If you're heading to the exit door all of a sudden, they are attentive. read more

Went to Dimsum Garden in Murray Hill, Manhattan, NYC near grand central station for lunch. Phenomenal service and the dimsum was the best I've had outside Brooklyn and as good as what I had in Flushing. The price is significantly higher than Brooklyn though. All the dishes were a hit. You mark down what you want on a sheet and they'll bring it. My friend liked the scallion pancake whereas I felt it fell flat. They also take apple and Google pay. We made reservations. They were busy at 130 pm on a Thursday but sat us right away read more

This restaurant is amazing at first I was a little skeptical because I didn't know what to expect but then I realize it's like little dumplings and mini meals and it was really cute. I couldn't make up my mind so I got the platter with just about everything I'm gonna say Eight out of 10 of the dumplings was so delicious and it was so cute and even though they're small and petite it was very filling. I really enjoyed myself. The people was nice. The atmosphere was quiet. I really enjoy. I'm definitely going back because I've have been feeding for their Beef and pepper bun wrapped in a nice philo pastry so good so I need to go back. read more

We went for lunch on a weekday and the place was packed. Appreciate the offerings include a selection menu for lunch and the full dim sum menu. All the dim sum delivered hot/fresh. One downside was the beef chow fun was not cooked well (uneven soy sauce, noodles all stuck together). Everything else was pretty good including the soup dumplings. Service is quick and efficient. read more

The food selection for the AYCE dim sum on Sunday was okay. There is less variety at this location than the location that was closed in flushing, and more expensive. The staff also doesn't tell you there's a 5% cash discount unless you ask. Overall the service was okay. The interior design was nice and modern though, so that was a plus. read more

Food ,service ,ambience all great (once the inconsiderate diners with the screaming kid left.) My wife had the lobster and I had the dimsum box, and green Chinese broccoli and rice in bamboo leaves. All excellent. Definitely going back. People with young kids need to respect the other diners. read more

Overall was not very satisfying. Crispy Puff types dim sum (Black Pepper Beef);- the wrap is not crispy and mostly probably under-baked, has weird doughy texture. Crispy Sesame Ball - too thick of skin also under fried texture? Chicken Feet was the best dims sum). Lobster with Crispy Noodle - they didn't use the typical Cantonese crispy noodle but just fried the regular noodle, too thick and weird. Will not come back. read more

This place is solid for soup dumplings and hot and sour soup. It's a small place with mostly four seat tables and booths with a few two seaters. Service is prompt and friendly. The soup is too big for one person to finish. They don't serve single serving soups. Chicken feet were spot on and cooked perfectly. It's a reliable lunch spot with quick service. read more

Went to try on this domain place after we visited the Summit. It's a 10 mins walk and closed to Grand central station. They offer variety of dim sum and most of them are $7.5 for a plate of 3. They also have a dim sum platter/box with 9 different dim sum! Since that will be too much for 1 person so we opted out to order individual plates. I think the beef rolls are really good and you don't see that in typical dim sum restaurants. One of the lava bun was dried out so it didn't tasted like the running lava filling. It was just okayed. Service is good, server are attentive. read more

I pass by this place as I work nearby. I bookmarked it as well, so I finally got a chance to check it out. The service is like any other Chinese food or dim sum spot. They have happy hour deals here from Monday- Fridays. I didn't partake in that as I had to go back to work. There's a large paper menu that you would fill out, and they place the order from that, and it comes out in a timely manner. I went solo, which was fine bc I wanted to be quick and order whatever my heart desires without judgment. I got the 3 pieces of scallop and shrimp with pea sprout dumplings, the noodles in wonton soup (which comes with 4 pieces of wontons), and the beef tripe with ginger and scallion. They gave me the sauces to eat with it all, and I ate to my hearts content. I saw the all-day take out lunch menu deal, which I will have to order one of these days too. read more

This was delicious!! The dim sum is a lot bigger than what I was used to, so I over ordered. Favorite bite was the egg custard rolls that are purple and soft. Amazing. Waiters were very attentive and offered great sauce pairing recommendations. Small space, but we must have come at a good time because it wasn't crowded. read more

Have you ever been famished that you have entered a restaurant not realizing exactly what it is? I did some weeks ago. I was hoping to go to Flushing for dimsum. The trains were packed and reluctantly I decided to eat nearby Grand Central. Dimsum Garden popped up while googling and I walked there. I did not read the signage outside. The interior was pretty and there were customers eating. The majority were not Asian. The menu had a variety of dimsum but no rice rolls. This should have been a signal. I ordered pork soup dumplings, Har Gow and fried pork dumplings. The food came and except for the shrimp dumplings everything else looked stodgy. If by accident the fried pork dumpling had fallen on the floor it would have stayed firm. I ate what I could but left some. Thankfully I had not opted for the "All you can eat" weekend special for $29.99 as I was told that if I had left anything I would have had to pay extra for it. When I paid and left I looked the signs outside and read the word "fusion" which made me upset. I wouldn't have gone into a restaurant that had fusion cuisine. Even now thinking back on this restaurant makes me cringe. read more

I've always wanted to try newer dim sum places outside of the usual Chinese heavy neighborhoods. Even though I personally prefer the old school style that encourages drinking tea more than eating, I'm happy to see dim sum more accessible in other neighborhoods. This place is solid and I want more of these to come up, but there are fundamental issues that are a problem to me. Of course there are plenty of nitpicky comments that are for future improvement purposes. The biggest issue was that their shrimp was spoiled, so many of their items were unpalatable. Each one had different degrees of spoiledness. We took a bite each time to check and luckily no stomach issues afterwards. They offered us free dessert as compensation. We ordered: crispy shrimp with tofu skin, beef black pepper roll, scallop shrimp dumpling, chicken feet, spare ribs, beef tripe, and the dim sum platter Crispy shrimp with tofu skin was the only shrimp item that was edible. It was crunchy but too oily. It would've been nice to have parchment paper lining the dish. Beef black pepper roll had very small bits of beef with very weak pepper flavor. The pastry was flaky in a mushy way that would glue your mouth together. Beef tripe was underseasoned but I appreciate the ginger pieces in the dish. The natural tripe flavor came through without being gamey. Tasteless but clean. The sauce was too thick which got goopy when things got cold. Spare ribs were not fresh. It's not spoiled but just the type that's been reheated. Also I can't stand the mushy meat texture. Chicken feet was relatively sweet and felt like it had ketchup vibes. I was surprisingly ok eating this. Dim sum platter not much to comment on since most items were inedible. My friend liked the sesame ball. Mango sago pomelo was our free dessert. It tasted good but wish it was less watery and had more toppings. They charge tea per pot which comes out cheaper than charging per person as in traditional dim sum places. We got the oolong which tasted quite good but I like tea way stronger. Each pot has one tea bag. They come around checking if you need hot water refills by opening the lid. I think it's more elegant to judge by weight or temperature. I'm always confused by the language situation at these multicultural eateries. They greeted all guests with English at first. They tried speaking Mandarin to us, so we weren't sure whether they know Cantonese. Eventually we realized they know canto so it was fine. One big reason I chose this place compared to other dim sum eateries is that their menu looks quite neat. It disappointed me when newer signs and their receipt are inconsistent with traditional and simplified Chinese. It always bothers me. I'm disappointed they don't have Worcestershire sauce. It's usually used to accompany steamed beef balls (which they don't offer) but also commonly offered for fried items. They did give us various sauces but I honestly can't tell which items they were meant for. I don't normally use those for the items we ordered. The seats are not comfortable. The portion with the cushion is way smaller than the full seat so there are parts of your butt/thigh that is left hanging without cushion. Also the AC was too cold. I did appreciate how my friend and I were allowed to stay for over 2 hours. It was full house at one point but no one needed to wait for a table. read more

Must try: Dim Sim Platter! Why: Delicious dim sim sampler and each piece are large so the entire platter was filling! My favs were Crabmeat and shrimp with spinach, Crispy shrimp ball, and Shrimp dumpling. The most unique that pleasantly surprised me was the Black truffle and mushroom dumpling as it was packed with flavor. After the meat dumplings, I ended with Steamed egg custard bun and Crispy Sesame ball, both were great. My friend and I also shared Chow Fen with Roasted Pork and we were only able to finish half the plate. Notes: Convenient location in Midtown and great for a lunch bite. Food came out fairly quickly. Neat wood decor. Clean spacious interior with booths and tables. Will come back for more dim sum and try other dishes! read more

Went there for Sunday ayce brunch. I've been here a few times and thought the food was good. Problem is everytime you circle what you want on the sheet, they always don't put everything. In and they will bring you the wrong items . Originally I thought it was an accident., but after a few times and reading the reviews I know it is done on purpose. I tried ordering the shrimp crispy balls 3 times, every time they didn't bring it. Then they don't come around for a long time so you don't order any more food. They also don't fill your water glass, you have to hunt them down. I would understand if they were busy , but there was only 2 other tables at the time. They don't ask you how your food is or if you need anything else . Left unsatisfied and will not be returning. read more

All was decent except the tripe that didn't have much flavor. read more

One star for good service. One star for good, not great food. One star for speed of everything. The best dish I had was the lettuce in garlic sauce. I'm sure the soup dumplings would've been a better choice but I was already swinging for the fences worth the choices. Nothing tastes bad. But there's definitely no "wow" dish unless you also really like garlic sauces. read more

This is based on one take-out visit and one eat-in visit. Both times, I had the black truffle dumplings with mushrooms, which I really really liked. I had pork shumai the first time and shrimp shumai the second time. I liked the shrimp a bit better. I also had the steamed roast pork buns both times. Portions are generous and each time, the three things I ordered was more than enough for lunch. I probably should have asked for a doggy-bag and taken some home, but I didn't. There's an all you can eat option on weekends for 29.99 for adults and about half that for children. My three item order today was less than that, and I just don't know that I could eat enough to warrant the all you can eat option. The food was delicious. Buns had great flavor and I've never encountered the mushroom truffle dumpling anywhere else. I know I'll be back. It's pricier than Chinatown dim sum, but I guess that's to be expected. Wheelchair accessibility notes: The restroom is large enough for a wheelchair and should be workable, though depending on the size of the chair, someone at the restaurant might have to move some stored items to facilitate access to the door. read more

West lake Soup Soup is thick and nice consistency, maybe too much mushroom The soup has one of my favorite consistencies in any West Lake Beef Soup. It's really thick and smooth. The flavor of the beef is alright. My only complaint is that there might be too many big cuts of mushroom that cloud the flavor of the broth. Bamboo Shoot Dumpling I've never had this dish before, so maybe I'm mistaken. The filling was pretty bland without the vinegar sauces they gave us. There was no bamboo taste and the skin was really thick. I don't think I would order this again. Stuffed peppers and eggplant The cooking of the peppers and eggplant were both great. The eggplant was very soft and unseasoned. My only issue was the meats that were stuffed inside it. For the stuffed peppers, the shrimp was too chewy. The same paste stuffing was used for the eggplant, and that one wasn't chewy at all. The texture of the meats was confusing, and I don't think shrimp pairs very well with eggplant or pepper. I probably would have preferred some red meat more. XLB No problems with the soup dumplings. The soup inside was on the salty side, but still warm and fresh. The scallion pancakes were excellent. I also really liked the flavor from the pork ribs. This place does its specialty dishes well, but I'm not a big fan of the others. read more
