We've been coming here for years and truly love this place. The food is consistently delicious, and every dish we've tried has been a hit. Tiffany has been especially helpful--she always gives great recommendations and makes the experience even better. You can tell she really cares about the customers. We've ordered a variety of dishes over time, and everything has been flavorful and well-prepared. Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for great food and friendly service. We'll definitely keep coming back! read more

This was actually our 2nd visit, we went in September 2025 for my husband's birthday and he really enjoyed his entree (chicken fried rice). So, he requested we visit again for an early Father's Day dinner. The food is plentiful, enough to share around the table. Everyone seemed to enjoy their food except my niece that ordered the crab meat fried rice There sprinkles of "crab meat" in the rice but flavorless!! She still didn't like it after adding soy sauce I had the pineapple shrimp, it had 4 shrimps and a few chunks of pineapple but it was seasoned well....the one at Bahamas Breeze is much better though. The decor is very nice! Love the different seating options and decor. The customer service is not the best, everyone seems to always be rushing you and then no one checked to make sure we had silverware, napkins, nor needed refills on our beverages (which are always flat). They're not overly priced, so that's a plus, and they offer an unlimited tasting options and daily happy hour on appetizers and alcoholic beverages. We'd definitely go back but they should partner with Chick-fil-a for some customer service training!! read more

We went for dinner around 8pm on a Saturday night, and the experience was disappointing. First, 20% gratuity is automatically built in for everyone, which would be fine if the service matched it. Unfortunately, the service lacked considerably. On top of that, we felt rushed out around 9pm because we were told the kitchen was closing, even though the other restaurants at the waterfront were still open, packed, and clearly operating normally. The food was very hit or miss. A few items were good, like the sauteed string beans, some dishes were just okay, but most of what we ordered was greasy, bland, and not very enjoyable. The noodles were dry and rubbery, and the dumplings and egg rolls were overly greasy and unapealing. The best way to describe it is Chinese buffet-quality food served to you at a table. For the price and location, I expected much better. read more

I can't believe I'm saying this but I don't this this restaurant is doing themselves any favors with their happy hour menu. I primarily ordered from that. Nothing was all that special or made me want to return. A lot of it was too greasy/oily for my taste. The dumplings were delicious but nothing special. The soup dumplings were rather small but flavorful, but weren't as juicy as you'd expect. The scallion pancakes were oily and too crispy for my taste. The five flavor beef was ok but didn't have as much flavor as I expected. The salt and pepper wings were greasy and lacked flavor. This restaurant might do better if they focus on high quality dishes rather than trying to push out lower cost, easier items on happy hour and AYCE menus. The drink specials were good and I liked my glass of wine. Service was fine and the food came out quickly. Hopefully they can make some changes. I'd like to see them succeed but the place was practically empty on a Thursday evening. read more

First time here for the unlimited menu. We chose side B where you can choose from both sides. Everything was so delicious. My favorite was the duck. It was so good we ordered it twice. The fried beef, shrimp pineapple fried rice and string beans were also delicious. Everything was. The service was very attentive and checked in at the perfect time to order more food. Recommended to order up to 5 items at a time. They also have table side soy sauce, chili oil and a hot sauce that added to the flavor of each dish. The space is huge and beautifully decorated. Can't wait to come back and try more items. read more

While Han Spot claims to be an authentic Dim Sum restaurant (with other a la carte offerings), it was disappointing in its lack of authentic flavour and use of cheap ingredients. Also, the staff are rude and pushy. The a la carte prices soon exceed the all you can eat menu option. Probably wil continue our search for an authentic dim sum place that delivers flavor in small bites. Probably will not return to the unfriendly and disinterested joint mostly because a 20 % gratuity is added on to the bill regardless. This makes it a more expensive option in addition to being largely inauthentic and "meh" . read more

My best advice is get there early if you still dare after reading the low reviews.. I came there to have lunch with a friend. As soon as they open. I get there no greeting. After like 5 minutes, then Miss waitress is like your friend is already here... We'll gee thanks. She one gives out one set of menus... there was no one else in restaurant??. Theres option A and B. B has better stuff.. So the waitress.. no name tag. Short woman with glasses, black hair in a pony tail.. maybe mid 30s. Was on her phone while we were ready to order. We said we are ready to order? She was like wait I have to do something... In fine print at the bottom it says " automatic 20% gratuity" Red flag because I just had a feeling that service would suck I suggest ordering your dishes ahead. They give you small plates yet they don't usher your dirty plates away. We had called Miss Thang over so we can order more. Because she never checked on us...because she's glued to her phone. She barked : if you leave food we will charge you $20 waste fee... my friend responded cuz I was gonna say something not nice... Overall ,I would say pass.. The service is bad because they already included the tip ... the duck was good, the purple buns were good, Singapore noodles my favorite, but for dim sum go elsewhere.. lots of the food lack seasonings.. food is bland. Our waters were never refilled. Avoid this place! read more

Very disappointing experience. We ordered a dish with enoki mushrooms, but it was served with completely different mushrooms. The food overall was mediocre and nothing stood out. What annoyed me the most was the automatic $15 tip added to our bill for a table of TWO. When we asked about it, the server simply said, "That's the rule." Since when is gratuity mandatory for two people? Definitely cannot recommend this place. One star only because the service was fast. read more

Love this place. Great choice of hundreds of dim sum food. Service is attentive too. Ambiance is fusion of authentic Chinese and pop music. I like the shrimp dumplings, cuddle fish, chow mien, spare ribs, scallion pancake. read more

I've been to a lot of dim sum spots in Maryland, but Han Spot at the Rio Lakefront is on a whole different level. Whether you're a dim sum traditionalist or just looking for a cool date night spot, this place absolutely nails it. The Food: 10/10 We opted for the Unlimited Tasting Menu, and it was the best decision. You get to try a massive variety without breaking the bank. Some absolute must-orders: Han Style Peking Duck: Perfectly crispy skin and so succulent. It's rare to find duck this good on an all-you-can-eat menu. Soup Dumplings (Xiao Long Bao): Hot, flavorful broth and thin skins. These came out fresh and steaming. Purple Gold Yolk Buns: Not only are they stunningly beautiful (Instagram ready!), but the flowy salted egg yolk center is a 5-star dessert on its own. Crispy Eggplant: Even if you aren't an eggplant fan, try this. It's perfectly seasoned and has the most satisfying crunch. The Atmosphere: The decor is gorgeous--it feels like you're dining in a chic indoor garden with all the faux trees and floral accents. If the weather is nice, their outdoor patio overlooking the lake is easily one of the best seats in Gaithersburg. It's elegant but still feels fun and lively. The Service: Despite how busy they get (especially on weekends), the service was surprisingly fast. Our server was attentive, kept the tea flowing, and the food came out at a great pace--not all at once, so we actually had room to breathe between plates. read more

Went here today and have to say this place was rather disappointing. The restaurant itself is not very cozy, the staff was not make us feel welcome. We ordered a Coke, a Tsingtao and a ginger ale. When we received our drinks the ginger ale was a sprit, but somehow their syrup seemed empty ant it tasted awful. The beer and coke was ok. We then had the tofu and vegetable soup (not on the menu), which was really great., spring rolls and shrimp dumplings which were ok and then hat garlic green vegetable and sauteed sting beans which tasted well. With the bill we did not get any fortune cookies. As the staff was not so nice, the food was average for Asian food and the issue with the ginger ale I would give only 2 stars and probably not come again. read more

A friend recommended Han Spot for its happy hour, so we decided to check it out. The restaurant is spacious. It wasn't busy on a Sunday evening, and we were seated right away. They have nice decor like a cherry blossom display and hanging red lanterns. Asian music videos were being projected on the wall in the back. Happy Hour is daily, 3-7pm. They have drink and food specials. Their happy hour food specials include discounted dim sum and appetizers, ranging from $4-$10 per plate. They also have an all you can eat (AYCE) menu, which is $28 per person for Option A, which is more dim sum and noodle based, and $38 per person for Option B, which includes Option A selections plus more family-style classic dishes like Peking Duck, Walnut Prawns, and Kingdom Spare Ribs. $28 per person for AYCE is a good value, but since we went during happy hour, we felt that a la carte was the better way to go for our group of five. The food was good, but pretty standard overall (nothing to write home about). We also ran into several kinks. Service was friendly, but I found everything to be a little disorganized. When we were seated, we were provided with four different menus - one for the AYCE, one for happy hour, one for a la carte, and one with the chef's recommendations (more of an abridged version of the a la carte menu). We found ourselves cross-referencing the different menus, which complicated the ordering experience. This might push you into doing the AYCE for simplicity's sake. The happy hour menu lists $4 spring rolls and $4 veggie spring rolls. We ordered the "regular" spring rolls, which we presumed would have meat in it. When we asked the waitress what kind of meat was in the spring roll, she advised that all of the spring rolls were vegetarian. When we showed her the happy hour menu and asked her what the difference was between the "spring rolls" and "veggie spring rolls," she told us that the menu had a typo - instead of two spring roll items, the first one should say "egg roll" if we wanted meat. If the restaurant knows there's a misleading typo on the menu and doesn't want to reprint new menus, they should do a pen and ink change, at a minimum. We also ordered the pickled radish ($5) off the happy hour menu, but they brought out the sweet and spicy cucumber ($6). When we told the waitress, she told us that the kitchen reads the order wrong sometimes... After we brought it to her attention, we were given the correct dish. Off the happy hour menu, we ordered the shrimp dumplings (har gow) ($5 for four pieces), soup dumplings ($8 for six pieces), roasted pork buns ($5 for three pieces, steamed), and salt and pepper squid ($10). The har gow was okay. I enjoyed the soup dumplings (pork) - good flavor and filled with broth. The table has vinegar, soy sauce, and chili oil as self-serve condiments. No complaints about the baos. The bread was soft and fluffy, and there was adequate filling. However, I wish the menu stated that they came steamed (I was expecting baked for some reason). The salt and pepper squid had a salty exterior but a bland interior. I was thinking the pepper on the squid would be black pepper, but it's actually hot green peppers. The squid was also just okay. They were big pieces, but it ate kind of clunky and chewy (overcooked). Serving size of the dish was small, but you could say that it was a "happy hour" portion. Off the regular menu, we ordered the Singapore noodles ($17) and stuffed crab claw ($13 for two pieces). The Singapore noodles came with shrimp and pork and was a big family-style portion. I'm not sure if this was the normal portion, or if the kitchen was just feeling generous that night. It was served towards the end of the meal so we were pretty much already full. The stuffed crab claw was a tad salty. At $6.50 per ball, it is pricey, but done well and a nice treat (Note: the stuffed crab claws are on the Option A AYCE menu, so you can indulge!). We mentioned that we were celebrating a birthday, and the waitress kindly brought out a purple gold yolk bun ($5 at happy hour) with a candle, which was a lovely gesture. This was an ube dessert bun with a sweet custardy egg yolk filling, which we enjoyed. Based on the overall dining experience, I'm not against returning - the happy hour deals and AYCE menu sure are tempting - but there's definitely a learning curve here with ordering, and food is average... I can't say that I'll be rushing back. read more

We were really excited about the AYCE Peking duck and dim sum menu, but the experience was not great at all. When we walked in, we noticed a lady setting up a table with tote bags and such. We didn't think much of it as the majority of the restaurant was empty. The man sat us in the main dining room, close to the stage with the big tv screen. We thought we had the whole place to ourselves. We ordered a couple of our first dishes and as we were waiting (quite a while), we noticed more people coming in who looked like they were setting up for an event. Next thing you know more and more people start filing in, it was some sort of networking event. There were quite a lot of people standing and talking all around our table, they might as well taken a seat at our table and conversed with each other. My partner and I at this point lost our appetite and just wanted to get up and leave. Keep in mind there's only a 2 hour limit to this AYCE and the service was SO slow. Most dim sum places are a lot quicker than this. My partner and I decide to get up and go to the host and speak up because this was just such a bad experience... being surrounded by other people standing, talking loudly so close to our table + the slow service. Also made a note that if they knew this event was happening, why did they seat us in the main dining area instead of the other section where the other normal customers were dining in? OR why didn't they inform us that there was this event happening? They still tried to make us pay the full bill ($98), but we felt strongly that we only should pay AT least for one person ($35-$40) bc we only were there for 45 mins and didn't even eat all that much to be honest. Just not great at all. Oh and no manager on site either... We ended up just paying $50 and leaving because yeah, we were not paying anything more than that. read more

Went here for my friends birthday dinner with 13 people and honestly had a great experience. We figured it would be more economical to order à la cart at first, but then decided we should just do the more expensive all you can eat option since it was for a special occasion. We were the only party on our side of the restaurant so it felt like we booked the whole place out. The service was awesome, our server was very attentive was always there when we needed to order more food. We even brought a birthday cake that they stored for us until the end and cut for us too. As for the food, we were pleasantly surprised. I really enjoyed these: Peking duck - meaty, crispy skin, awesome Walnut shrimp - my guilty pleasure. Not orangey like a lot of other places (I don't like orangey), the walnuts were nice and candied and the shrimps were big! The soup dumplings- while not the soupiest, very yummy and very umami-ey The shumai - plump and meaty Crab fried rice - not too salty and not fishy at all. Very pleasant The roasted pork bun had great filling to bun ratio Honestly the whole experience was great and the food was great. We were skeptical at first because of the reviews and because the restaurant was empty but the food ended up being super fresh, high quality, and yummy. Would definitely go again. read more

Happy Hour Dim Sum at Han Spot Gaithersburg is an awesome deal for a fraction of what you would pay at their sister location at Tyson's Corner VA. It's also delicious. Our favorites were the fried beef dumplings / spicy wontons / lava egg bun. Least was probably the shrimp dumplings. Came in on a Friday evening and it seemed kind of empty. I hope they survive - since this is by far the most affordable DimSum so far. Service was super friendly and fast since we were like one of two three tables around. The place was huge and can easily accommodate big parties and gatherings. And it still looks relatively new so everything was clean. read more

Han Spot - Dim Sum Near Me - Gaithersburg, Maryland

I love dim sum and have heard a lot about this place and saw reels on social media. They have indoor and outdoor seating and the ambiance was typical of a Chinese restaurant with some cute photo-worthy decorations, 3.5/5 star for ambiance. The unlimited tasting menu Set A is $38pp and Set B is $58pp - a bit pricey. All of the food is made to order, not "buffet" style, so I expected a lot at this price point. I went with a group of friends who have not really had dim sum, so we went with Set A to try. The quality is definitely better than buffets, but still a bit lacking, I would give it a 3.5/5. The best item on Set A is the Stuffed Crab Claws - typical Chinese wedding appetizer and they were well made. The purple Golden Yolk Bun is one of my favs, but these lacked filling but the bun themselves were nice and fluffy. We went on a weeknight and they had $1 bottomless drinks, but definitely watered down. The waitress barely checked in on us and we had to flag her down from across the mostly empty restaurant. They automatically add the 20% tip to tables who order the unlimited tasting menu. 2/5 for service. Overall, the value wasn't there if you don't eat a lot. I think we ordered slightly over what we would have paid ordering a la carte but we probably wouldn't have ordered so much. When I go to dim sum with family, it's usually $20-30pp and we leave stuffed as well. Set B for $58pp might be worth it if you indulge in the Peking duck and higher priced options. Overall, a solid dim sum option, but nothing I'm waiting to run back to. I would probably just order a la carte if I do go back. read more

We were excited to try this restaurant, but unfortunately, the experience fell well short of expectations. My husband and I ordered six different dim sum dishes to sample a broad range of the menu, yet none stood out. The food was mediocre at best, lacking the freshness, craftsmanship, and depth of flavor that define exceptional dim sum. Several dishes felt uninspired and forgettable. What made the experience more disappointing was the value proposition. Prices were notably high for the quality delivered, and an automatic 20% gratuity further increased the cost of the meal. While I have no objection to paying premium prices for exceptional food and service, the overall experience simply did not justify the expense. In a market with many outstanding dining options, this restaurant failed to distinguish itself. Regrettably, we left feeling disappointed and will not return. read more

I love dim sum so an ayce dim sum is perfect to satisfy my craving. They do also have a la carte which is a great option too. They also have normal full sized entrees like beef with broccoli, etc. There is also a great happy hour deal! I have been here a couple times and at some of their other locations and I can say that service and food was awesome. My experience this time was different to when I went when they first opened. Now that they have been opened for a while, they are getting into the rhythm of things and are amazing. The food was delicious and fresh. My favorite was the boba tea they had in cute containers like the bear and dog which I def took home and still use. Their alcoholic drinks were also very strong so you'd def get your moneys worth. All and all I would def recommend trying it again once whether you've been there or not. read more

Han Spot is in an idyllic location in the heart of the Rio, and the ambiance inside of the restaurant reflects the same beautiful and serene surroundings. The all you can eat dim sum menu, offers two options - one which is focused on mainly dim sum, and the other which is dim sum and also includes menu items from the main menu. Overall, the dim sum was good. As other reviews have mentioned, the menu selection with the dim sum is quite limited. But from the dishes that I tried, they were all pretty tasty but did not necessarily present as being freshly made as with other dim sum restaurants in the area. Overall, I enjoyed my meal. The service was good - and there is an option for $1 cocktails with the all you can eat menu options. These are pre-batched and during my visit at lunchtime on a Saturday afternoon - they were out of the Mai Tai's. read more

Tried this place for the first time for the all-you-can-eat dim sum. The space is aesthetic, but the food fell short. The duck came out cold, the coconut shrimp didn't taste fresh, and the sweet & sour pork was dry. The seafood pan-fried noodles were the best thing we had. Service was just okay--missing placeware, no napkins, and I had to grab sugar for my tea myself. Gratuity is automatically added. Overall, I wouldn't recommend it compared to our usual dim sum spot. read more

I had a very easy time dining at Hon Spot as a vegan. I was so surprised with how accommodating the staff was, and how easy communication was. This business has a lot of indoor dining and I saw a number of families enjoying brunch. They have high chairs and seem very family friendly. As a vegan they told me to order from the tofu and vegetables section of the menu. They said to avoid the meal they clearly said oyster sauce in the title. They also told me they could custom modify any meal and would make sure the kitchen does not use fish sauce in my entree. I really appreciated how thorough and understanding they were. I ordered to salt and pepper tofu as well as the snow pea leaves. These meals came out with healing portion sizes! One entree was $16 and another was $18. They gave me enough food for 3 meals! What a deal. The snow pea leaves were amazing! The sauce they were cooked in was perfectly savory and had the right amount of salt. The salt and pepper tofu was so crispy and light! My friend that was not vegan took one tofu cube and immediately ordered a plate for himself because the crunch and flavor was extraordinary. I ate about half of each meal and when I put away the leftovers in the provided take out containers the leftovers filled the containers to the brim. It looked like I hardly touched my meal even though I left full and satisfied. I will definitely be coming back to try more of the vegetable entrees! I really like the flavors in the meals I tried so far and am thankful there are vegan options here. I wish they could make a vegan dumpling, but until then I will order what I can and enjoy. read more

We ordered the 'All You Can Eat' with Peking Duck menu ($38per person) and unlimited mimosas/mai tais/lemon drops for $20 each. Drinks were each made fresh and quickly. I started with the Sweet and Sour soup. Lots of various bits and spicy! I loved it. Perhaps one of the best H&S soups I've ever had. The Peking Duck is excellent. Savory, crispy skin but succulent moist meat. The soup dumplings were flavorful and hot (temperature). The summer rolls were also flavorful and fried but lightly fried so not greasy. But the egg rolls were good but a bit greasy. Lastly we had crispy beef and it was excellent. Tasty, sweet (as I like it) in bite size portions. Servers were attentive. Granted it was about 3:00 ish on Christmas Eve so they were not too busy. Regardless, food and drinks were served very promptly. Atmosphere was festive as it was Christmas Eve. We enjoyed our meal and plan to return. Also, my spouse works near by and has had several lunches there but not a HH. We had a very good meal. read more

A newer "dim sum" spot that opened in Rio Gaithersburg & was heavily promoted by influencers on social media but did not live up to the hype. Located right next to the tower with AMC, it faces the pond and has plenty of free garage parking. We went around noon on a Saturday and it was very open. The restaurant was decorated very well from the outside to the inside. We picked option B ($48/pp) tasting menu to try a bit of everything and almost everything was disappointing besides the chicken feet and snow pea leaves. Almost all their dishes were very salty or not what we expected. We got the sizzling beef ribs but it was mostly fatty meat and tasted like rubber, didn't sizzle. We got 2 dishes with squid but the squid was mushy. The crabmeat fried rice was mostly okay but kinda dry. From sitting down to leaving, our server was consistently very good and kept checking in on us. Would have given this restaurant 1 star if not for the service. Also to note that a 20% gratuity is automatically added to all bills regardless of the size of your group. read more

Recently tried Han Spot at Rio and enjoyed it! My partner and I figured we could actually get a good amount of food for cheaper by purchasing menu items al a carte instead of opting for the AYCE option, and we were correct. We tried several dishes for less than the cost of AYCE for two people, and everything was good. The food came out very quickly, and the service was also good. Would go back again! read more

Han Spot - Chicken feet, bbq pork, pork dumplings with roe - Dim Sum Near Me - Gaithersburg, Maryland

Some of the food is good, some is ok, some is greasy, flavorless and bad. Noodles were dry and rubbery. Dumplings were too wet and greasy. The service is not very good. They charge an automatic 20% gratuity regardless of the size of your party so I imagine they don't feel like they have to give you good service because you'll be leaving a fat tip no matter what. I've been there twice and had the same experience both times. You will have multiple servers. They will get confused. Some of the things you order will never arrive no matter how many times you remind them. The servers can get downright rude if you ask too many questions or remind them that the fried rice you've ordered three times for the past hour still hasn't arrived. All in all it's just not a great place. The food is basic. The service is not good. The ambiance is pretty nice. It's _almost_ a good place. If the food were a bit better and the service were a bit better it would be a pretty decent place. But as it stands we've tried it twice and wont be trying a third time. read more

It was our first time eating here since it opened. Sunday evening a few weeks after their grand opening and it was a good experience.

I really wanted to like this new dim sum spot but was not impressed. Pro: -The aesthetics are beautiful. I do love the modern Chinese vibes. It is located in Rio, by the water, next to Guapo's. -The service was good unlike traditional dim sum restaurants. Our server was very attentive. -accept reservations -shumai, chicken feet, spare ribs, sticky rice were all good Con: -shrimp dumplings very small, tasted worse than the once I buy frozen from the grocery store -they don't have taro/turnip cake - a staple imo -also don't have any rice noodle rolls, chive dumplings and many others. Dim sum selection was pretty slim -table for 10 people was crowded but it looked like the largest round table they had I think there are better options in the area for dim sum. Hoping they increase their range of items. read more

My friend and I entered Han Spot with hesitation. We were excited about a new Asian restaurant coming to Rio but saw mixed reviews on Yelp and social media. We ordered their soup dumplings, pork BBQ, and vegetable dish. The soup dumplings are okay, but Bob's Shanghai is levels above theirs (and $1 cheaper)! The Pork BBQ dish came with a nice serving of pork, but I found it a little tough. The green garlic veggies were definitely the best. They were fresh and delicious. I'm curious how their other dim sum dishes taste, but I'm on the fence about coming back. It's hard to compete with all the selections on Rockville Pike! read more

Was excited to see a new dimsum spot pop up in the DMV, but was quickly disappointed. SERVICE We went during soft opening week so will give the staff the benefit of the doubt. One of the servers was very attentive and apologized when the wait for our food was longer than anticipated. Can't say the service was consistent. Our tea pot was empty for a while and no one came by to refill. It was also extremely difficult to get anyone's attention for the check. It took us around 2 hours to get all our food/order/pay. FOOD We ordered some dimsum dishes along with the Peking duck. The dumplings tasted strangely close to the premade ones you heat up from supermarkets. They were the only dish that came out within 15 minutes. The Peking duck was not bad, but the way the duck was cut felt very amateur. The egg bun and beef was decent as well, but overall not worth the price. I'd wait a while after they work out the kinks before trying again. AMBIANCE What initially drew me in was the location itself based off of photos. The interior was very nicely designed, but there was a huge stage and karaoke machine setup in the middle of the room that threw off the design. The volume of the music would also fluctuate between being too quiet to feeling like you're at a club. I think the service was partially slow due to the big size of the restaurant and weird layout for servers to walk around. read more

All day and all you can eat dim sum? Sign me up!! We went to the Soft opening on 8/9. This new restaurant is open where a bar called Union Jacks used to be (thus the British flags in the bathroom) and it's been remodeled to be gorgeous restaurant with red lanterns, trees and a large seating area with a big wall size TV playing videos with a stage (thinking this might be perfect for hosting events). The menu is extensive divided into dim sum, beverages, noodles, appetizers, desserts and entrees. There are two all you can eat options, as well as ordering à la carte. For our smaller party of three we thought it'd be a little more affordable to go with à la cart since we weren't that hungry. We ordered the shumai, sweet and sour cucumbers, shrimp dumplings, soup dumplings and Singapore noodles. Out of all these dishes, the shrimp dumpling, and the shumai were excellent! The shu mai was definitely handmade and stuffed with pork. The shrimp dumplings were also quite delicate and had a lot of flavor. They were three to the serving. Singapore noodles were hefty portion, but did not have a lot of spice. Lastly, I'm a big fan of soup dumplings and these were generally OK. They were relatively smaller in size, and they had a thicker tougher outer dumpling shell. there were six to a serving, and they only offered one spoon and one little little dish of vinegar with them. It was a soft opening, which is kind of a test run and we expect that they'll get the hang of it soon. I thought the service was good. They had rotating staff that would run dishes out and different staff to take your order so it was hard to know who was assigned to the table. No one really checks on you just you just have to grab their attention. Maybe that was their plan but it seemed like everything got out to our table at a timely manner. I definitely plan on returning when I much hungrier to take advantage of the all you can eat options. This is an excellent dim sum choice. read more
