Went to East Pearl for lunch today; hadn't been there in years. Food was great and the Dim Sum looked wonderful with good variety. Their lunch special menu selections and price are outstanding! Service was very good, efficient but not warm and friendly. Restaurant was quite busy and lively though not overly noisy. Aunties were quite busy rolling the dim sum carts. Atmosphere is is old school but pleasant, not run down. Quite comfortable. Will definitely be going back more often. read more

Friendly staff. We only had a fairly short wait to be seated. Decor is very pretty and bright. Carts were moving around and the dim sum assortment is one of the best I've seen in Atlanta. Everything was fresh, tasty and pricing was very reasonable. I only wish they were closer to the metro but it was definitely worth the drive!! read more

East Pearl Seafood - Spare Rib With Taro, Shrimp Shumai, Shrimp Dumplings, Shrimp Spring Roll - Dim Sum Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

I have to be honest... it's been a while since I last visited. We noticed that our friends have been raving about this place suddenly so we visited.. the Dim sum was very tasty. We walked in a busy afternoon time and there was plenty of seating. We only had to wait about 10-15 min for a table of 7. Instantly after sitting, we were flooded with options from century egg congee, fried egg tarts, fried shrimp balls, pork Shumai, pork ribs and so much more. I really also enjoyed the chicken feet!another cool part was they brought a menu of additional items to order. We ordered the Chinese donut steam roll and the highlight was definitely the mochi meat "football" bun. Overall definitely our new favorite dim sum! read more

East Pearl Seafood Restaurant is a well known dim sum restaurant in Metro Atlanta. I came here with my friends on a Sunday afternoon and it was packed! There were so many large families eating there, even though the space was a bit packed. The traditional dim sum carts were rolling around frequently, which might be good to know for people who like that. The service was fine. Like many dim sum restaurants, you might have to call over someone to actually get your food or place an order. My friends and I shared everything family style. I love Chicken Feet so that was one of the first things I ate. I thought it tasted fine, but I would have liked it drenched in a bit more of black bean sauce. As for the Shrimp Dumpling and Fried Shrimp Ball, I thought both were alright but maybe a bit too shrimpy. As for the desserts, the Matcha Salted Egg Yolk Bun was super yummy!!! Honestly, you could barely taste the matcha, but the egg yolk itself was really sweet and paired well with the bun. Overall, I feel like East Pearl Seafood Restaurant may be a bit too overhyped on social media for dim sum. I have had better at other dim sum restaurants in Metro Atlanta. The dim sum was okay to me, but their desserts were pretty good. read more

We've been here several times for take out and dine in. The food is solid every time. I really like their Chow Fun (I prefer beef, mom prefers seafood) and the dim sum items like Har Gow, Cheung Fun, Shanzhou Ngau Yuk, Ham Sui Gok, Lo Mai Fan and Jian Dui. They also have a shrimp wrapped in bacon deep fried and also shrimp in eggplant that are delicious. They have a large variety of dimsum. If you go too early, a lot of things won't be made yet and you will have to wait. Seems the later you go on the weekends, the more options they have. If you order pick up, give it about 25 minutes because they get so busy on the weekends. If you're dining in, it isn't always so easy to get a waiter's attention for things. So if you do, just ask for everything you think you'll need at once. Sometimes I just bring extra utensils and stuff with me so I don't have to wait for anyone to come over. I'm that girl that will put a bottle of Ranch in my bag (except it's chili oil or Sambal). They have chili oil at the tables and their chili oil is pretty good. If you're dining in they give you a discount if you pay with cash. The ambiance is of a typical dim sum place. Just come as you are in your sweats and enjoy your Yum Cha. read more

This is such an authentic Cantonese restaurant in Duluth! They have both dim sum and stir fry dishes. I came today for dinner, so we ordered some dishes to share. They first start with some small starters, and the food came out pretty fast. Everything was so delicious, I can't even pick a favorite. We also got dessert soup at the end, rounding out a perfect meal with family. I really recommend this restaurant for authentic Cantonese Chinese food! read more

What more could you ask for? Steaming hot dim sum fresh from the steamer is just the best here! It's not too fancy, just good dim sum is what you can expect. We had a party of eight, so we tried around 20 different dim sums: pork buns, beef tripe, lotus leaf sticky rice, pork ribs, mixed beef tripe, rice noodle with shrimp, rice puff, eggplant shrimp, baked pork buns, sugarcane shrimp, Portuguese tart, and egg custard. The egg custard was absolutely amazing--the soft crust melts with the custard, creating a delicious bite. The service was fantastic, with carts always around, ready to refill whatever you desire. Everything tasted so good and fresh, made with quality ingredients you can taste. East Pearl is definitely your go-to spot for dim sum! read more

We came here on a Sunday morning to celebrate Chinese New year. I was honestly expecting it to be more busy but we only had to wait because we needed a table for a stroller. The space is a moderate size with traditional theme and decorations as with other dim sum spaces. Food quality was pretty good and the staff were much nicer than most Chinese establishments (I say this with a good amount of experience). Some of the favorites were the crispy pork belly, the many dumplings, and especially the pork dumplings. Overall, we had a good experience but the prices were a little higher than I would have hoped for especially since the quality wasn't necessarily out of the park. I wouldn't mind coming here again but definitely had another dim sum spot in the area that I enjoyed more. read more

East Pearl Seafood - Dim Sum Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Not really impressed. Food was mediocre. We had a large variety of dishes as we were a party of 6 and none of us really wanted all the dishes in the family meals. So we each chose a dish and shared. I ordered the Sha Cha Beef and it was pretty good when it was fresh out of the kitchen. After it settled for about 5 mins the oil separated from the sauce and just looked gross. We also had the Hunan Chicken and it was good but there wasn't a lot of meat in it. We had an order of Singapore chow fun with shrimp and it was one of the better dishes. Another dish we tried was the Peeking Pork Chops and they were probably my favorite. Dishes I didn't try were the creamy honey walnut shrimp and all the fish eaters at the table chose it as their favorite. They also ordered the East Pearl Seafood Mix w/vegetables. That some liked, some didn't. We also did several dim sums. The pork pot stickers were the best but we also had the pork buns, sausage buns, shrimp shumai, lotus leaf sticky rice, and tofu skin wrap. Service was adequate but the restaurant and the bathrooms especially were just dingy and dirty. They served us all in a large banquet room when there was a much nicer and cozier front dining room that would have been a better place to eat. It wasn't so dingy and there was a fireplace and just had a nicer feel. You can view this dining room on your way to the dingier undecorated banquet dining room they will seat you in. The bathrooms were just gross. It didn't look like the floors have been swept in quite some time and nothing had been wiped down except maybe the toilet seats. Even the hand dryer had gunk all over it and was gross. My husband said it looked like the urinals had never been cleaned. . If the areas you see are this dirty and dingy I really wondered what the kitchen looked like. ? Did not see the health score posted anywhere. I could've missed it I suppose. Overall it barely gets 2 stars and that's for the food. Praying none of us get sick. Might be the last time I let my son choose his birthday dinner restaurant too lol read more

While there are many , and I mean many newer dim-sum places. This is the place to go. The place where I still think the food overcomes any other short coming. If you're looking for an OG dim-sum place, up here in Duluth, where your priority is the dim-sum and price point, then look no further. Focus on the key items from the carts, and you will not go wrong. I would recommend the hargow, hamsuikok, braised chicken feet, and finally..... you have to ask for this, and I may regret letting you know this off the menu item... ask for braised beef tendons. There I said it... the only dimsum place with beef tendons. Very much coveted and prized. It'll take some time for the kitchen to make it. We usually get 2. One for the table, and one to-go. Also... pro-tip. Bring you own tea, if you have it. Good tea is essential to the experience, but unfortunately, ever restaurant does not offer a curated selection. They'll happily pour you brown water. Make 2024 a year to bring Tea back to DimSum read more

I like dim sum and this is my go to place for it. I've gone to others but the food doesn't compare. Five stars. I highly recommend this place. Reasonably priced. read more

Restaurant is quite busy during the weekends. High ceiling space reminds me of the huge dim sum places you would find in New York's Chinatown. The carts offer the usual dim sum plates you expect at the American Chinatowns. Food is tasty and there is the usual variety of teas. Chrysanthemum tea is my go to tea. Service is excellent. Main gripe here is the cost, pretty high prices for dim sum. I guess I look back at the New York or Boston Chinatown restaurants many years ago and reminisce how cheap dim sum used to be. read more

I was craving congee and I want to try their version. It is tasty includes crunchies amd green onions unlike the other places that is just plain bland. This is my favorite so far here. We had hot tea and finished the egg drop soup. They also serve shumai. Serving is family style so its really good for the price. Everything you see here is $52 includes spda fountain drink. Big space and some tables have the lazy susan feels authentic and servers are pleasant. Would likely to come back. read more

East Pearl Seafood - Dim Sum Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Beware of items on menu that are not priced, my wife ordered 3 tiems over the phone, one of the dish was Sauteed Slice Conch and I came to pick up, wasn't aware that they charged $43.99 for a little portion and perhaps with less than 8 slices of conch meat. Talk about deceptive, ripoff and overpriced. Will never bring my business there! And this incident happened at the Lunar New Year's eve 2026! read more

I came here more recently with my family after coming here more than a decade ago. A long time ago, this place was definitely more seafood-focused, but now It's just standard dim sum here that will satisfy that dim sum craving. Everything is served "old school" on carts if this is the experience you're looking for. We probably won't be back when we know other places to get big plump shumai and shrimp dumplings. This place has definitely had better days. The bathroom was not well maintained with signs asking you not to flush toilet paper. It was just gross. read more

Very rarer to find a restaurant with such an authentic Cantonese flavor in Duluth. Both dim sum lunch and set dinner were delicious.

Overall experience is amazing! Me and my family visit every Sunday for dim sum as that's part of our tradition back in Hong Kong. I can't say that their food tastes just like my hometown but there's a couple food items me and my family liked a lot! Best to visit early around 10 so you won't need to wait hours for a table. Overall it feels like hometown and I like it so far! read more

We had a very pleasant and interesting dining experience here! First: the decor was wonderful. I love Asian art and the lobby was quite unique, as you can see from the photos. The amazing Buddha statuettes, the bamboo planters, the dining room, and the entry all represented delightful Asian influence. Second: the service was spot on! A few of the hostesses clearly did not speak English, however, there are ladies there that do and all were very helpful and friendly. I was especially impressed when they set our table with forks without having to ask. Brava! Third: everything we ordered was more than delicious. Needless to say, I am looking forward to my next visit read more

Been here too many times! All the dimsum on the carts are good, but the rice noodles you have to order are the best (third pic). There are different types/toppings you can order for them. They come out soft and silky every single time. All the dimsum here are flavorful and good size. The curry fish ball dish is my favorite and they only serve it on weekends. Not pictured but they also have an amazing tofu dessert that is soft and silky ! Not overly sweet, it usually sells out around 12 on weekends. Amazing breakfast spot that always hits the spot! Definitely get there early on weekends though as the wait can be about an hour long, but totally worth it. read more

It was our first time here. The service is good. We got a lot of dimsum and breakfast items. But there are not a lot unless you order from menu. And to see menu, you either have to ask or to look online. It was difficult to tell waiter/waitress what we want. The dimsum was hot and delicious but there are a lot of dishes containing shrimp. So if you allergic to seafood, you can order pork bun, tripe, chicken feet, and something else from menu. Our least favorite was the pork bun- the filling was too sweet for our taste. Our most favorite is transparent shrimp dimsum and both shumai. I didn't see any rice porridge so that was a disappointment. read more

We've pretty much tried all the dim sum places in Atlanta/Duluth and this has to be one of our top picks. The service is pretty good even on their busy days, but will sometimes need reminding of what you asked for. The place itself is also pretty big, but I find it awkward when they place people with another group in the same table or on stage. Overall great place for good dim sum! read more

Lets update my review! It's still good as ever. My sisters visited ATL and dim sum was in the menu. We came right as opening and I know it's iffy because the food might not be ready, etc. But nope. Right when I went to go stand by the door, I was bum rushed by other customers and everyone ran inside - essentially cutting in front of me. I know so rude. Anyways. The food was ready and carts got rolling as soon as we were seated. Luckily, the servers this time knew English and we didn't have the usually struggle. I know I should really learn to speak one of the Chinese languages..... Lol. That's for debate in another time Overall, delicious and reminded me of dim sum we get in Hawaii. read more

I haven't had Dim Sum since 2019 and wanted to go somewhere inside the Duluth area. This restaurant is located right next to Home Depot off Pleasant Hill Rd. I came on a holiday Monday (Memorial Day) and it had a decent crowd to it. Parking was plentiful outside. Employees were wearing masks and it appeared social distancing was enforced here as people were seated far away from each other. The first cart had almost everything I wanted. Excuse me as I do not know the names of every Dim Sum dish in English. Lol Everything was super tasty and service was good. The highlights were: Puffy Taro shaped balls wirh pork inside, sticky rice with pork inside, pork shu-mai, fried shrimp balls, and etc. I definitely will come back again!! read more

This was very interesting. It's not a place where they give menus and wait for you to choose items. Service is fast because they come around with the trays with small portions of different items and ask what you want. You won't know how much anything costs they just mark it down on your ticket. The oolong tea was amazing! read more

This place was bottom tier okay. . For starters we got spring rolls and 2 different types of dumplings(?). They weren't very good. I don't know what else to add other than, I don't recommend getting these. 2/10. . We also ordered Peking sauce pork chops and, I forget the name, but some type of beef and snap pea stir fry. The pork chops were the best thing we ordered, but that's not saying much. It was sweet and salty, but the taste got pretty old. Pork chops 4/10. The beef and snap peas tasted like every other beef stir fry. It wasn't anything special, and the ratio of vegetables to beef was 8:1, as you can see from the photo below, there was probably 5-6 pieces of beef compared to the 20+ pieces of vegetables. 2/10. . The atmosphere was okay, everything looks pretty outdated but it didn't really matter to me. The food was below okay. read more

I ordered dim sum and got shumai, sticky rice, and egg tarts. All of the cart ladies were attentive and asked me each time they went by if I wanted anything. My waitress also asked if I wanted the kitchen to make any rice noodles, but eating dim sum alone, I didn't have a big enough appetite to eat those, too. The sticky rice was extremely sticky, but I didn't care for it, as it was fishy tasting. I'm used to bits of lap cheong or mushrooms, but not fish and mystery meat bits. I do think that their shumai is better than Royal China's shumai, though. Theirs was moist and delicious, as were their egg tarts. The jasmine tea was also quite tasty. However, the decor is rather lacking, and you can tell it used to be some other type of restaurant. Also, it smelled quite fishy. You can see the fish tanks that are part of the kitchen, and they didn't look very clean. While I really liked the shumai, I don't think I'll be back soon. read more

One of my favorite places to get dim sum. The only reason I don't frequent it more is how far away I live from there. It is almost always packed especially on weekend mornings, but worth the wait.

Some were overly salted and some was not salted at all, and people were also unorganized. Also, the TV did not work at all. but still. read more

I've been coming here for years, and they never miss. While the selection isn't anything out of the ordinary, they offer all the classic dim sum staples you'd expect. What sets them apart is the ability to order additional dishes, and my personal favorite is the Chicken and Salt Fish Fried Rice--they always nail it! read more
