Today it was my second time that we went this beautiful restaurant for my Father's birthday. I ignore some people rated this restaurant is negative. For me, the service is excellent, each staffs are very nice and the place is very pretty. Especially the chefs designed each portion of the dish is very gorgeous. The food is so yummy. My parents are very satisfied with the food of the portion and taste. We will coming back to try another kind of dishes.今天是我第二次去这家漂亮的餐厅庆祝我父亲的生日。我忽略了一些人对这家餐厅的负面评价。对我来说，服务很棒，每位服务员都很友善，餐厅也很漂亮。尤其是厨师们精心设计的每道菜都非常精致。食物非常美味。我父母对菜品的份量和口味都非常满意。我们还会再来尝试其他菜式。 read more

Great food. Great location! It's always a good choice when you try something new and so glad to have stopped in

Pros: Decor for both outdoor and indoor is very nice. Very spacious and roomy. The fact they offer Cantonese style Dim Sum all day is very nice and a long with their regular dishes. I went during their soft opening. Cons: $38 for an A app and $58 for B app for all you can eat buffet is way over priced. I spent over $300 for just dim sum. Never coming back ever again. Their portions are very small like the sticky rice which lack meat. Nothing but rice. Their crab balls are filled with fillings then actual crab meat. They skimp on stuff too. It's better not to get the buffet and go with the lunch or dinner meal. It's better to go to Great Wall aka GW grocery store in Rockville, MD to pick and choose which dim sum you want to eat and spend only $20 or less than spending so much. The servers don't refill you water quickly and it wasn't even busy. The fact they forced tip on you when we were also a party of 5 is ridiculous. I personally don't like forced tip at all when the price is already expensive. Some of the dim sum they have are missing too like the famous shrimp crepe and beef ha fun. Their spicy chicken feet lacked flavor. Just a major major pass. Skip this place and go to GW instead. Theres plenty of people posting pictures here so I will let you see yourself. Until they have a better Cantonese Hong Kong style authentic food then I will skip this Northern style with fake Cantonese expensive dim sum. As you can see, the more people are giving this a low rating. Especially, Chinese people open their stuff the truth comes out. For a soft opening and a sign saying grand opening and this is the type of food and service you provide? Also, I found out later that people got forced 20% gratuity tip regardless how many party you have. This includes yourself! For a soft opening that's just a slap in your face! They do this even on a soft and grand opening? Really? SKIP! read more

Their hot pot was very good. Good variety of boba teas was a plus. Had a ramen station that I didn't try . Overall this is a okay place. read more

Since opening the service and food quality has improved. A great place for dimsum and authentic chinese cuisine. From the Hakaw (shrimp dumpling) seafood pan fried noodle, crispy Chicken are well done. If you want something spicy the MapoTofu is flavorful and not just spicy like other establishments. read more

Made a reservation for lunch on Sunday with family excited to have an all you can eat Dim Sum experience only to be told after we sat down that they don't do all you can eat on Friday, Saturday and Sundays. Now the only menus they gave us were the all you can eat so we were all very confused. They brought ala carte menus and we proceeded to order lunch for what we had hoped would be a great meal, but we were let down at every turn. Ordered a Han Filet, it was not a filet, likely a cubed roast of some sort. Ordered ribs, they brought out what looked like chopped rib tips with minimal seasoning and flavor. Ramen noodles were almost raw, General Tso's was more like orange chicken with chili, orange chicken that was overly vinegary, fried rice that was under seasoned and wings that were not crispy. Service was slow, gratuity was mandatory, food came out one plate/one steamer at a time bathrooms were not clean and the patio looked like a storage area. Basically avoid at all costs. read more

Went at 11:30 for lunch today. Unfortunately we will mot be going back. The spring rolls were warm and crunchy but the filling was all cabbage only with no taste at all. The Mongolian Beef was about 8 very small slices of beef with an extra large white onion. Taste was good but way overpriced at $23 for a giant cooked onion. My mom had Walnut Shrimp and it was very good taste wise but was surrounded by a ring of raw broccoli (not steamed or stir fried just raw). Also not worth $23. The service was terrible. Totally inattentive and i went inside to pay when the server left the bill and never came back after we waited 30 minutes. So disappointing. read more

We visited Han Spot to celebrate my birthday and it was a terrible experience. We opted for the AYCE Option B, placed our first round of orders, and only received a few of the dishes we asked for. The food, that actually made it to us, was decent but the missing dishes and the service is absolutely unacceptable. After following up with our server on when we could expect the rest of our order, he simply told us that a wedding event from the prior evening had them backed up - clean dishes and kitchenware were low, the kitchen staff was backed up, etc. When attempting to place a 2nd round of orders, he told us that we may not receive our food given the status of their kitchen. So we decided to wrap up our meal and leave. Do yourself a favor and go to any other dim sum restaurant. You'll get better food, at a cheaper price, and with much better service. read more

I was highly disappointed with this location, especially compared to other restaurants by the same owner. Service needs serious improvement--aside from one seasoned server, the staff seemed disengaged, making customers wait even for basic things like water. Bussing and table upkeep were also lacking. Our waitress missed many orders and perhaps caused the kitchen to scramble to keep up. Most importantly, dim sum wasn't fresh or high quality. The soup dumplings, in particular, were a letdown--Trader Joe's frozen dumplings would've been better. Overall, this restaurant falls far below the standards of its sister locations. Not sure how much longer this place can last if front of house isn't addressed and quality check on the kitchen. read more

Extremely slow non existent service. They got our order wrong 3 times. Very greasy pan fried noodles that had no seasoning or taste. The spicy pickles were soggy and old. We will not be coming back. read more

Many dishes had the same sauce Service was good. Staff was friendly and helpful. The food was mediocre. read more

Great food! Portions are very generous and taste is very good - not too salty but still very tasty. The staff were so friendly and kind enough to let our mom group stay longer past closing. We all loved the food, service, and the ambiance. Highly recommend. read more

Ever since hearing this place was coming to Rio, my wife and I were looking forward to coming for dim sum. We were not disappointed at all. The interior decor is nice but perhaps more open than I expected, so it lacks some coziness one might want, but everything looks good regardless. The layout would certainly encourage the use of rolling cart dim sum, but at least currently it is done via menu order. You can order ala carte or choose an unlimited (up to two hour) tasting menu featuring all of the dim sum, soups, rice & noodles, and appetizers -or- an option that lets you sample all that plus the entrees as well. We were seated immediately and service was quick and pleasant throughout, with the menu and options explained as we needed. For this trip, we didn't have long enough to make the sampling menu be worthwhile, so we ordered a plate or two at a time off the dim sum menu. Everything was excellent, the steamed items came immediately as there were some always at the ready. The fried items were made to order and came out hot and gorgeous. The star of the show is the stuffed crab claw, which is visually stunning as well as flavorful and easily the most filling item we sampled. We will be returning soon! read more

I had such high hopes for this place. I walk in and the decor is beautiful. It's really nice for a Chinese restaurant since most of them are not know for their decor. The staff was attentive and made recommendations. Now for the food. It was meh. For $38, I expected a lot more. It's really salty and it's not even authentic. It's Americanized Chinese food. This is not real dim sum. It is not worth $38. Go elsewhere. read more

Pretty much disappointed all around. Started with the item I ordered, it was listed at $28 on the menu, but came out as $33 on the bill. Pretty big change. And it wasn't very good frankly, just a pile of meet and some rice. Grade: D My partner's meal looked better, but still seemed like a bunch of spaghetti noodles. Didn't share so I don't know the taste. I saw more than once when the wait staff delivered wrong food to a table. Didn't happen to us, but did happen. Décor is adequate. The chandeliers are very nice, the hard floor means a bit noisy, and the stage is still around from previous spot. I thought it was brand new, and would be willing to try again in a few months. But I wouldn't make a special effort to choose this place. And as I see older reviews, seems like this is the norm, they aren't getting better. read more

I have no idea why these reviews are so low from others. The food is excellent. The service is A1 and they are so wonderfully hospitable. I would recommend this restaurant to any and everyone who wants an all you can eat dim sum restaurant. Please support them they are full of smiles, laughter, and warmth. The restaurant has a beautiful layout with a really nice view of the boardwalk and water out back. Come and enjoy as I did and ride the paddle boats the help with those calories. read more

I had a wonderful time, the decor is lovely and whimsical, and the food came out quickly and hot. The small lady behind the bar can make a mean drink! read more

They have a $38 all-you-can-eat dim sum option with a 2-hour window, which I don't recommend at all because it's a scam. The reason is that the portions are small and the beef isn't fresh. They give people spoiled meat because Chinese people don't like to waste food, so they give whatever they think they can get away with in order not to lose profits. The service was very poor, with no one to take our order, and they were deliberately ignoring us by wasting time within the 2-hour window the customer had. Not only that, the waitress lied to us and said the kitchen was closed, but the restaurant had an hour left before closing. The General Manager's name is Tiffany and she was no help at all and acted like she didn't speak English to avoid many complaints from many customers. Han Spot is an overly priced Dim Sum restaurant with mediocre quality to say the least. If you do the $38 option, order nothing but Peking duck, XO fish, French beef cubes, Crab claw, Singapore noodles, Chow Foon, walnut shrimp, purple bun, sesame ball, and golden bun and don't order the cheaper items, so you can get more bang for your buck. This had to be the worst Chinese restaurant experience ever and I won't be surprised if they are closing down very soon. read more

Han Spot is all style and no substance. They have a beautiful spacious interior but everything about it screams money grab for people who don't know what real dim sum is supposed to taste like. I am 99% sure their pan fried dumplings are the Korean Beef Bulgogi Mandu by Bibigo, available at Costco (I actually love these frozen dumplings but that is beside the point); you can tell from the Japchae/glass noodles inside and the "liquid smoke" meant to imitate beef bulgogi--these have no place in a dim sum dumpling at a Chinese establishment. Knowing this, you start to question the authenticity and freshness of anything and everything on the menu--if a dim sum restaurant is cutting corners on dumplings, how far are they willing to go? read more

Food is great and the place is beautiful. The menu is so big you have to come multiple times. I've had the dim sum and brunch on separate occasions. Dim sum is unlimited on weekdays! Great authentic cuisine. Service is ok. read more

Very much enjoy having Hanspot in Rio!! The cuisine is very consistent and Delicious! Large restaurant with great ambiance. Service is super with Ryan and Mandy always providing exceptional service! Highly recommend as we've enjoyed on many occasions. read more

Just tried this resturant for lunch today. First, it was almost completely empty which was a bit strange. Then we had the dim sum, which was lacking in quality and flavor. The soup dumplings are better frozen from trader Joe's. With all the great places to go in Montgomery county, I'd stay away from this one read more

My husband and I had dinner at Han Spot for the first time. We had their eat all you can menu A which is mostly dimsum. We loved everything! We ordered their pork shumai, garlic spareribs, salt & pepper chicken, soup dumpling, pork bun, spring roll and sesame balls. Everything was delicious! We will definitely be back! It was worth it. The servers were very nice and the place was very cozy. read more

Was excited to try the new place. Dim Sum is my favorite go-to, but this was very average, if not a bit below. The rest of the dishes while decent, were nothing I'd return for. The place is large, but the layout is a bit weird. Not sure the type of look they are going for. They are also severely understaffed and uncoordinated. The mains came out within minutes, and the dim sum came at the very end after a long time when we had finished our food, and after reminding the server several times. Getting the drinks right would almost make you give up on the drinks. Hostess was not to friendly either. Not coming back read more

Saw this spot featured on Instagram. I forget his name, but he gave his "STAMP" of approval. So I had to check it out. I will speak on the ambiance first. It's a new place, but it isn't lively. Place should have at least music playing or something. I wasn't used to such a quiet place. The service was ok. For an all you can eat and drink place, I would expect the service to be more attentive. I got the feeling like they didn't want to be there. For example, they were kick to give us the bill and our time wasn't even up yet. We still had 30 minutes left from the time we sat. Another example is that they took their sweet time providing us drinks. Anyway, if you have been to a dim sum spot, you know what to expect as far as food. The food was very good. My only complaint is the ribs. I don't know what that was, but beef it was not. It was too rubbery. I am not a fan of duck, but the duck was the best I've ever had. The dessert buns were excellent. The fried rice lacked a bit of flavor, so I asked for their spicy sauce, and that helped. The drinks were ok. Not strong, but not weak either. As u stated earlier, they were being real stingy with the drinks. I will give this spot another chance, because it's new, maybe they are trying to get their bearings. I will definitely be back and hopefully they have music playing. read more

Screw this place. They won't be here long. Booked a birthday party for 10@1pm. They booked two large parties and only have one big table. We were there first with all of the party but two, who were a couple minutes behind and they gave the table to the other party. Will never go back. I left my party to fend for themselves and went home as I will not give a dollar to a place like this. read more

Food came out slow but tasted like any other dim sum spot nearby. Forced gratuity (for a table of 3!! when the menu says auto applied for a table of 6) which annoying to pay after the lack of good service we got read more

I ordered all you can eat option A. There are not many choices for dim sum. Their pan fried chicken and beef dumplings are the dumplings from Costco which brand name is Bibigo. I ate Bibigo beef and chicken dumplings so many times and their pan fried dumplings taste exactly same as the frozen Bibigo dumplings. Their serving speed is slow and when I asked for a check, a lady who seems like an owner approached to us and looked through all dish and it seems like she is checking whether there is any leftover. It is understanding since it is their policy but it is also very unpleasant at the end. I usually don't eat much but I could eat 9-10 dishes so, the price is not bad but their dumplings taste like they heated twice not freshly made. Some dim sum were dried. I would never tried their dim sum all you can eat. read more

My husband and I were excited to finally try Han Spot for their AYCE dimsum. We came in Saturday night, and we were sat fairly quick. The menus were presented, and we tried to order the AYCE dim sum but were told they don't do that on the weekends. We decided to order the following: Chrysanthemum tea Pork spare ribs Spicy wontons Pork shumai Chicken feet Peiking duck (half) We received the ribs, shumai, and chicken feet fairly quickly. It was all room temperature. I had to remind the waiter for our tea twice. Once we finished the first 3 dishes, we waited about 20 minutes for the tea to finally come out. The duck came out at about 15 mins after the tea. The duck funally came out and was also room temperature. The duck skin was not crispy. The tea was warm and not hot. We never got the spicy wontons either. All in all, we were very disappointed. We drove an hour for this and was not worth it. The location of being at the Rio lakefront was what saved our night. Overall... The ambiance was nice. The service was slow. The turnover of tables was so slow. The bathroom was decently clean. The location is great. Food was 5.5 out of 10. The flavor was there but wished it was hot and fresh. If I lived close, I would give it another try, but it's not worth the hour drive for me. read more

We ordered several entrees along with various dim sum dishes. The dim sum tasted on par with other dim sum restaurants in the area. Other entrees food quality was fairly good. Peking duck was passable only because we've tasted better elsewhere. Overall cost was higher than average, so don't be shocked by the final bill depending on what you ordered. The location was good and the service was adequate considering they just opened this month. read more

Fabulous ambience and great service! Chicken and veggie dumplings taste good and much better than the fried .Scallion pancakes,Kung pow chicken and general tso chicken were all good. Would be nice to have a separate kids menu . Highly recommend this place and would love to try other dishes during my next visit read more

Have been meaning to try this place after seeing it for a while. Me and my friends decided to finally give it a try. I ordered the Seafood fried rice with dry scallop. It was pretty good. I wouldn't say it was anything crazy though, pretty tasty. I also ordered the Mango green tea. It was really yummy and had star jellies in it. Presentation was really cute too, I even got to keep the cup. It was 8$ though which wasn't too great considering the small size. The service was really good, our server was really nice and attentive. All our meals got to us really fast. The ambiance was really nice too. I would give this whole experience a 7.5/10. read more
