    Dim sum menu
    Janny Y.

    2nd time here. Once dinner and this time Mother's Day dim sum. The ladies here are always friendly. They were very busy. No host specifically, the wait staffs came up front to check the waiting list that they've left on the table that you had to fill in yourself. Their dim sum menu isn't very vast but had the usual more popular selections. Their beef congee wasn't a huge portion but it contain loads of beef. Didn't get to have any of the steamed bbq buns because the kids ate them. We didn't end up ordering much from the dim sum menu, we did ordered salt & pepper squid & snow pea stems because we liked it the last we were there. The lady must not heard when I ordered the shumai so it was never placed with kitchen, but our shrimp rice roll and Chinese fried dough in rice roll never arrived either. Told them about missing items when asked for the cheque and they verified and took off bill. Would have liked to see how they taste but I guess we'll try next time.

    Beef churn fun dim sum

    I was in Orlando for vacation with my sisters and here to celebrate lunar new year. We found this authentic Chinese restaurant to eat our new year's meal. It was packed that night. The food was very good. The portions are pretty big so that's a plus. They had a 2 lobster special so we ordered that. Other dishes we got were beef chow fun, snow peas tips, chicken corn soup and 2 dim sum dishes. (Haw gow and beef churn fun) It's great you can order dim sum even at night! The meal wasn't even that expensive for how much food we had. It was extremely busy but they were very nice and accommodating. I like the layout of the restaurant with booths and the yellow color of the chairs were nice. I will definitely come back here to eat again!

    This place is authentic Chinese. All day dimsum which is nice. Food was excellent . Service was great. It's not the greatest looking but it's clean and great atmosphere . We had dimsum and whole Peking duck as well as their lobster special . Definitely great experience

    Eggplant stuffed with shrimp
    Larry S.

    This was my favorite item on the dim sum menu. Big pieces of eggplant surrounding lightly battered shrimp. The rest of the dim sum ordered was okay. Nothing spectacular. Our dinner entree was okay too. Not much flavor. I would like to go back and try other dishes but the restaurant is a distance from where I live. I thought the prices were fair and the service was excellent b

    This is a popular place for families and locals looking for good family-style dining or dim sum. I think the food here is very tasty and heartwarming. Everything is freshly prepared and served quickly. I think I prefer their large family style dishes over their dim sum and would recommend the Beef Chow Fun, Salt and Pepper Squid, Walnut Shrimp, and Water Spinach. I love how bright and clean the space is. Service is quick and the servers have always been great with us.

    Love East Garden--it's a must-stop every time I'm visiting a theme park nearby! The service is always fantastic, and the ambiance is exactly what you'd expect from a classic Chinese restaurant. I always order the fried pig intestines--they hit every single time! (Portions were a bit smaller than usual this time, but still tasty.) We also got the tripe again, and it was perfect as always. This time, we tried the lobster deal in the fried garlic style--absolutely delicious! Can't wait to come back again in a few years LOL

    I like the food there. Compare to the quantity and size of the food, I think their price is fair among the restaurants. Definitely a restaurant to revisit. We got three dim sum item to start. We have the turnip pudding. The edge was will pan fried to crispy. We also got stuff eggplant. I like the size and the soften skins of eggplant. The last dim sum items is the crispy taro dumplings. I am ok on that item. My wife likes it. The two main dish we have is the beef ho fun and the pork belly with preserved vegetables. The ho fun was cook well with stir fry. I like the braise sauce of the pork belly. Go well with rice. Next time I am there, I probably get the Hong Kong style two lobster. Service is good.

    Amazing!!! Visiting Orlando, but I had to find a Dim Sum place. Let me tell you how they did not disappoint! I don't know which was better; the service or the food! Everything was fast, fresh, authentic, and flavorful!

    Cantonese style pan fried noodle
    Tran N.

    The portion for entrees are huge!!! Cantonese style seafood pan fried noodles and beef chow fun are delicious! If theres only two people just know youll be packing food to go home. The dim sum comes out fresh and most of the rice rolls and shrimp balls are not too doughy. It is the right consistency. The size of the shrimp is also pretty decent for the price. There are many other places that have very tiny shrimps. The service is great! They are quick and attentive. It can get pretty busy on sunday so if you want to beat the crowd go a little earlier.

    Peking duck half size
    Jin J.

    Service: very bubbly and welcoming waitresses who were quick to ask if you had any questions. Food: Overall a solid Chinese experience. The shrimp that came with the coconut shrimp were delicious and huge! The sauce was overwhelming though and they could have used a lot less of it. The Peking Duck was a tad bit overlooked but the skin was perfectly crunchy and well seasoned. I wish they had the thin rice papers instead of the bread-like bao buns. I chose not to use the buns and still enjoyed the Duck-onion-sauce combo. The hot and sour soup was HUGE. I forgot to look at the menu to see if we got a special serving but im glad we had a lot. It was tasty.

    My boyfriend and I came here last weekend with my parents, and we're already planning our next visit! I grew up eating Cantonese food, my parents and grandparents even owned restaurants specializing in it, so I would say we have pretty high standards. This place completely blew me away. I had no idea we had such an incredible spot for authentic Cantonese dishes nearby. The service was great and the inside was very nice and clean! We came for dim sum this time and also tried the beef chow fun and salt and pepper squid. The chow fun had great wok hei and came in a generous portion--super satisfying. Salt and pepper squid is my favorite dish to eat and they did an amazing job. Every dish was absolutely delicious. I can't wait to come back and explore more of the menu!

    Cute atmosphere. The painting on the back wall was beautiful!
    Stephanie A.

    Food was delicious. Atmosphere was lovely. Service was nice. Came here on Christmas Day with my family last minute and we were sat right away! Decent portions for the noodles and the dim sum tasted fresh!

    This is a hidden gem in Chinatown. I have tried many dim sum places in Orlando, but so far, this one has to be my favorite. Our waitress was very attentive and super friendly. The menu was in Chinese, Vietnamese, and English. There was a variety of items on the menu. We mainly ordered dim sum. The menu was decently sized. Our orders came out promptly. Though only one item was forgotten, as soon as we asked, they made it fresh to order, and it was served on our table in less than 10 minutes. (shrimp paste rice paper). We went with stuffed eggplant with shrimp paste and scallion pancakes for appetizers. The scallion pancakes were delicious. They came our crispy and hot. The stuffed eggplant was unique. The rest of our dumplings and dim sum items came out fresh. They were stuffed to the brim and the filling was seasoned well. With a great experience, this is definitely my new go to spot for dumplings.

Every weekend when we went to the farmers market they always have a large line and people would be walking away with multiple dishes.

But trust me, it's worth it! They are cooked right on the spot and are delicious. Biggest Advice? Order more ahead of time because they sell out fast and the lines are always long.

I went the traditional route with getting a pork dumpling and I was not disappointed. It was fried perfectly on one side and had that steamed effect on the other. There is a selection of different sauces to add to them on the table, such as sriracha sauce, soy sauce and sweet thai chili sauce. I chose sweety thai chili sauce because I like the sweet, zesty kick it gives which was a great compliment to the food. It was only $6 for 4 decently sized dumplings which wasn't bad. I'll be back to try the other flavors next time!!

Each time I order it, they tell me that shrimp dumplings are extra. They are very much worth it, by the way! The noodles in this soup are egg noodles. The tender bite draws you back. The chinese spinach is nourishing and offers iron to give you strength. The crispy pork is amazing. But it is really crunchy. At this restaurant they sell it by the pound, right along side the hanging duck which is by the pound as well. They sell so many dishes that are well-loved, but I tend to get the soup. It's so nourishing and flavorful. Top tip for parking...you can park in the back, but there are many restaurants on the same aisle so you sometimes have to wait for people to leave.

    I was craving Tasty Wok (again) & decided to order 2 more dishes that I haven't had in years…read more Mandarin Egg Tofu With House Sauce Fish Filet with Black Bean Sauce These 2 dishes are HOUSE SPECIALTIES so that means they are known to be unique dishes and delicious. Mandarin Egg Tofu - Egg tofu is very delicious and is similar to silken tofu consistency and this dish is delicious. It has pork strips, enoki mushrooms , mini corn, snap peas, green onions. The egg tofu is fried first and once you bite into it its very tender and silky smooth texture and kind of creamy. This is my favorite tofu. The house sauce is a big brown based sauce. The snap peas seemed a little overcooked losing its bite and crunchy texture nonetheless still a memorable delicious dish. This would be a great vegetarian dish if you opt out the pork strips, Fish Filet with Black Bean Sauce - This is usually served or listed on the menu as a rice plate dish. I usually eat this dining in and its a delicious plate entree. They use Swai filets for this dish. For $1 extra you can order it as a dish with rice on the side and you get more fish filets etc separate. This is a lightly battered fish filets fried and topped with house brown sauce with slithers of onions and red / green bell peppers. Of course the brown sauce is black bean sauce so you will see speckles of black beans with the sauce. There are ginger notes as well when you devour this dish. The fish filets are cooked perfectly so soft and tender. The rice served here can be better imo. Perhaps better brand or grain rice? Also ordered my regulars ; Walnut Shrimp, Beef Chow Fun. Walnut Shrimp - Request ordering this (take out only) having the broccoli stored separately. This provides the shrimp dish to not be soggy. I think you get more shrimps this way too. Tasty Wok's walnut shrimp is by far the best in orlando imo - they really seasoned the shrimp itself prior to dressing it with their creamy sauce. The sauce has a tad sweetness to it & some sort of umami. The shrimps are jumbo large sized. You get about 10-12? Shrimps in this dish. I have had my share of tasting this dish at different restaurants and by far Tasty Wok's is by far my favorite. Beef Chow Fun - Another favorite from Tasty Wok. Wok Hei present, Tender seasoned beef thinly sliced, and Tender wide noodles. It was under seasoned salt wise but eating it with their creamy sauce seasoned beef makes up for it. Again, ate my share of Beef Chow Fun at many restaurants and by far Tasty Wok's have been my favorite thus far. They offer free mini tubs of chili oil upon request. Also chopsticks. Tasty wok do not seem busy dining in but they are busy with take out orders.

Every visit here feels cozy, flavorful, and perfect for gathering with family and friends. Let's talk about the broth because that's the real star. My absolute go-to (and forever favorite) is the Tom Yum broth -- it's rich, aromatic, and packed with that perfect balance of sour, spicy, and savory. I love customizing it the way I grew up enjoying Thai hot pot by adding extra mushrooms, tomatoes, chili peppers, cilantro, green onions, garlic, and a squeeze of lime juice. The flavor becomes even brighter and so comforting -- seriously next level. The ingredient selection is another huge win. There's a great variety of seafood, different meats, and an abundance of fresh veggies, so you can really build your bowl exactly how you want it. Everything tastes fresh and the portions are generous, making it one of the best hot pot experiences in Orlando by far. Friendly staffs. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, which makes it perfect for both small dinners and bigger group hangouts. I love coming here with my family and friends -- it's the kind of place where you can slow down, cook together, and just enjoy the moment. Hot pot just hits differently during the cooler season, but honestly... in Florida weather, it's good any time of year. Juicy Pot is always a place I'll come back to whenever I get the chance. If you're looking for a flavorful, comforting, and consistently satisfying hot pot spot, this one is definitely worth checking out.
