Wow! Our new dim sum restaurant and worth the drive vs. waiting at Din Tai Fung. Loved all the dishes we had from Char Siu Bao, custard Bao with lots of almond cookie on top, string beans, walnut shrimp, shrimp and chives, everythi g was good except the waitress throwing dishes on the table..whew so rough but part of the Chinese experience. read more

This place has gone downhill. I lived in the area for 4 years so this restaurant was a staple in my diet. My family and I decided to stop by for old times sake and the nostalgia. This place has to have the cheapest management ever like it is so beyond unbelievable. First of all, no water for the table at all!! What?!? I have never been to a restaurant that didn't bring waters to the table. This place makes you pay for bottled water. Then they charge you for tea (which they bring without asking) PER person which is ridiculous since not everyone drinks tea. The food was subpar as well, everything came from the kitchen ie no carts. We had some baked goods and buns left over and I asked for a box and they gave the smallest one possible which wouldn't fit everything we had. So I asked for a larger one and they basically threw a fit saying if we turned this bun to the side or smashed these ones together they'll all fit into the box. Like seriously?!? I basically had to cause a scene just to get a bigger to go box. They then proceeded to take the small box we didn't use and gave us a small bag that didn't even fit the large to go box. This place is ridiculous I will never return and I advise you all to save your hard earned money and look elsewhere for dim sum. read more

I was a regular here coming at least once a week. 2 Stars because theres no other dim sum in the area and its not the food Im complaining about. One of the servers was very rude and kept bumping the cart into my jacket. It looked intentional. When i blatantly moved my jacket she just stared at me. Then as we were leaving my 2 year old daughter was trying to move to get out of the carts way and she intentionally blocked her in. The customers at the that table actually pulled my daughter away from the hot cart. We all just stared at the server in disbelief but again, no apology, nothing. Never again will I come here. They should hire people who actually enjoy what they do for a living. read more

Got the order in 39 minutes via Amazon Restaurant delivery. I'm very familiar with dim sum, having a very picky Chinese mother......Considering that many dim sum items don't keep that well - like the fried and steamed bits, I was very satisfied with my order. The size of many of the dumplings were on the generous side. I got baked pork buns, shu mai, radish cake, bean curd roll, egg tart, green beans, fried taro, shrimp eggplant, and shrimp/chive dumpling. The dumpling skin on the shrimp/chive was too thick, but the filling tasted fresh. The fried taro was very well done, tho it could've used more pork inside. They did forget one item, and I called Amazon customer service and was credited right away. Will definitely order from HK Dim Sum again! read more

Disclosure: this is the 1st dim sum place I've been to in Seattle (other than DTF, which I argue is not typical dim sum), so there may be better places out there. That being said, I've had more than my fair share of dim sum joints in Chicago so my palate has many places for comparison. HK Dim Sum itself is a fairly large, clean space in the mall next to Asian Food Center. Came in on a Saturday morning around 11, and the place was about 3/4 full. I was seated right away, jasmine tea served, and immediately the carts came right to me. The pork and shrimp shumai, pork/bamboo shoots in tofu skin, pork spare ribs, and chicken feet in black bean sauce were all served hot/fresh, and as tasty and juicy as I've tasted in some of the better dim sum restaurants in Chicago. I was also really impressed with their soy sauce chow mein - chewy/crispy thin egg noodles wok-fried in soy with bean sprouts and green onions - something I had been missing while living in Cincinnati (can't find it anywhere there) and they certainly cooked it beautifully here. Again, I'm still early in my dim sum exploration here in Seattle but HK Dim Sum definitely does the trick so far. read more

I love the value and the flavor of their dumplings. For around $3o, we got plenty for 3. We had potstickers, shumai, steamed pork buns, shanghai soup dumplings and pork pies. read more

Worst dim sum ever, it's an insult to Cantonese cuisine. Shu-Mai was under cooked, stir fry radish cake was drowning in nasty sauce...

This spot is serving my favorite dim sum. Very authentic and delicious, we dinning in and out very often, always have kind services.

We stopped by this restaurant for a late dinner last night. We did not realize it was very close to closing time. We still got a tasty dinner and friendly service. Will come back for sure! read more

Was hankering for HK BBQ and this place offers it. I ordered the dual pork belly and Char Siu and rice and was surprised by the quality. Not great but I would say 7/10. I also ordered an eggplant dim sum which was pretty good. Basically, not worth the drive from Seattle downtown but if you are north of green lake anyway, it's a decent option. Also it seems there is more seating here than most dim sum places in Seattle so perhaps the wait is not as bad on the weekend read more

Normally I go to Sun Ya, Harbor City or Jade Garden in the ID for dim sum but I pulled into this plaza today to get a menu for the middle eastern restaurant only to find it replaced with a dim sum restaurant. I never ate at Zen Garden in Mill Creek because I was a little skeptical of Dim Sum outside of the ID. However, since I was already standing over the cart I decided to order Pork Shu Mai and steamed hum bao. Prices were also average ($2.35 Small, $2.90 Medium, and $3.30 Large) although finding that anywhere on the menu is impossible. The shop is in the strip mall with 24 Star Thai just down the hill from Walmart. They've dolled up the place properly and there was one steam cart out. When I was there (Wednesday lunch) there was only one table full of people but considering I didn't know this place existed I think others don't as well. The Shu Mai (pork and shrimp) was pretty good if a bit chewy. The Hum Bao was smaller in size than what I'm used to. It had quite a lot of filling but possibly the flavor wasn't as strong as I'd like. This review will be amended after I go back and try other items so stay tuned. For now I'm giving it 4 stars because I can't give it 3.5 but possibly they'll earn the extra half a star when I return. read more

Pretty decent place for a dim sum place in Lynnwood. Not being from here, i was very sceptical but the YELP reviews made it easier. I gave this a 4 star because of the decent food but overall friendliness of the staff. I am assuming that it is mainly family owned and operated. A tip off are the 2 kids doing their own thing off to the side! :) Food variety was decent. I just wonder why this place isnt a made to order instead of carting the dim sum around. You are still able to order separately but there is so little room to maneuver a cart. Price is average. For about 4 adults and 3 kids, it came to a bit over $70. I always factor in about $15 per adult and $10 per child. Would come back again. read more

We've tried a few Chinese restaurants around the area and so far, we think HK Dim Sum produces the best Chinese food around the area at the most reasonable rate. We went to eat dim sum a couple of Saturdays ago and people who have reviewed this place is right -- the dim sum aren't that special. Yes, the ones down in International District are better, fresher, hotter, whatever, but if you are like me who lives up in Mill Creek; driving an hour in horrible traffic for lunch or dinner isn't worth it. HK Dim Sum is the best in the area, and people should recognize this. In additional to the dim sum, we ordered a beef ho fun (thick noodle stir fry), and this is what makes HK Dim Sum better than all the other restaurants: the cook can gets the wok hot enough to get the taste of fire. The restaurant itself is small, the décor sucks... it's not a spot for date night. It's a spot to go to for takeout and dim sum if you live up here in way north of seattle. read more

This was my first time here. I am not sure I'll be back any time soon. :( The service wasn't particularly fast to get a table set and some warm tea. They do push real dim sum carts around and the food is just okay. I was quite surprised though that all the dishes were considered medium or large. I would have thought that the small dim sum steamers would have been considered small. it looks likes they also have all you can heat hot pot. I'm not sure I'll try that as I find it easy to make hot pot at home. read more

I found a Cockroach in my bean curd dim sum dish.. After I ate the bean curd, I saw it dead in the sauce. I tried not to gag and chew my bean curd.. feeling too awful to waste my food. In the end I couldn't do it and was gagging like crazy. I couldn't finish my food anymore. I told the waitress and she got rid of the dish on my receipt and gave my table 20% off. Even though there was an insect in my food, the waitress did a good job at handling the situation. Three stars. read more

Dim sum up North! My wife and I were excited to try this place as its not in Seattle. Soon as you walk in the door your greeted by three aquariums. All are filthy. We sat down and looked at the sticky dirty dim sum menu. They have a typical menu as well. We ordered several dim sum dishes. All were pretty tasty and especially liked the honey garlic spare ribs. While eating we saw the two waitresses opening packages of spring roll wrappers that looked as they were defrosting. They took each wrapper out and stacked them individually and repackaged them in their package. One of the waitresses had a bad cough and really coughed a bunch and then sneezed into her hands. She went right back to working on the spring roll wrappers without washing her hands. They also were not wearing gloves. Both waitresses would serve other customers, take their money, work the register and never wash there hands then go right back to the wrappers and serving you. Guess the extra taste comes from the germs... If you closed your eyes to to unsanitary things it would be a 4-5 star review. I'm no Clean snob by any means just some things are basic and a necessity. Cleanliness 1 star Service 3 stars Dim sum 4 stars read more

This is my go to spot for dimsum in Houston. I live in Dallas and there is nothing here that is comparable to their authentic dimsum. I love the rice cakes with shrimp. It have a very soft texture and have a delightful to taste to the pallet. read more

This place never disappoints! The food is great and has a ton of the classic dim sum. The aunties are a little bit feisty but I wouldn't have it any other way. Perfect Sunday brunch place. And it's very family friendly so kids are always welcome! read more

The honey walnut shrimp was good but it was pricey! I know that seafood dishes are always more expensive, but the lunch special honey walnut shrimp portion is too small for me. At least for $ 7.95 I expect 2-3 more pieces of shrimp in my plate :( The service was good tho. read more

We are glad we stopped by this place. We had dim sum at other places but this place is our new favorite. The stick rice was very flavorful. The tripe dish was great. It was not too soft or too chewy, just perfect. The service can be a little faster, but the food was great. read more

I've been here many times over the years for the Dim Sum but especially now for the barbecue meats. Sometimes I just come in to order the meats to supplement a dinner. Their Char Siu, Roast Duck, and Roast Pork are the best in this part of Seattle in my humble opinion. The Char Siu is moist and flavorful, not like the dry stuff you find at other places. Also all the sauces that come with the barbecue meats are excellent. Highly recommend to try! read more

This is a decent dim sum place. It doesn't compete with the Jade Garden, Din Tai Fung or San Sui Wah. Since it's in Lynnwood it gets an extra boost. a) The soup dumpling was good, with great flavor b) Ha gow was actually the best item that I had that night. c) Pot stickers were a little lacking. d) The "footballs" were great since they were served hot. Every where else serves it cold. The waitress was really attentive, but that might be due to only having 4 tables occupied. I'll have to go on a Saturday to see if the service is just as good. Prices are very good. But the best part of this place is that it serves dim sum all day, every day! The other good thing about this place is its in Lynnwood. The culinary void of the Northwest. The funny thing on the menu is that it says its the "Best Dim Sum In Snohomish County". I think T & T is in King County and the buffet restaurants don't count, so being the only dim sum place in Snohomish County probably makes you the best. If Seattle is too far for you to go, this is a good local substitute. read more

It is so much fun to have this little treasure in the neighborhood! having been to Hong Kong personally this place fulfills the reminiscent hole in my heart when it longs for the hustle and bustle of HK. the sourceable ingredients are a bit different from The Island , but that is to be expected. I would gladly take friends and family here for a joyous evening together! must try the fried taro balls! FANTASTIC!! read more

My first shot at Dim Sum. Fun staff great food. We had a few items that I can find on their site (didn't catch the names as we were ordering, kind of a "What's good & "OK" routine with the staff) Deep Fried Shrimp Balls Soup in pork buns Congee and a couple items I'm not seeing on their site. We'll be back.. read more

come here if u on a budget and lookin for that good stuff! So many options! They taste amazing, i love their pork bun and shrimp wonton! their salty fish fried rice is a secret gem as well! their food safety rating is just 'okay' though **posted on the window**. but who cares, place is cheap and taste good! my stomach was fine after as well. read more

Almond Chicken with No Almonds: got home and discovered that my takeout order craving was lacking in the almonds so called them back and the person laughed saying it's included in the sauce which was a clear soy based gravy which also lacked the essential almond flavoring. Told her so and she laughed again and said, "that's the way we make it!" What a shame because this restaurant showed promise and if she hadn't of been so off putting, I would of shrugged off. Instead I toasted my own almonds and made my dinner better than the restaurant's but am inclined not to patronize in the future. :( read more

One of the best dim sum places in North Seattle. Although the taste and variety of their dim sum dishes cannot rival those of restaurants in Southern California or Vancouver, B.C., the quality of their food is consistently solid, fresh, and not super oily. My favorite dish is their fried dough (youtiao) wrapped in rice noodle called "zhaliang." It is not on the cart and you will have to order it. The fried dough is always crispy, and the rice noodle is warm and chewy. Sprinkled with green onion and served with hoisin sauce... Yum! Easy parking and fast service are a plus. read more

Dim sum are good !!! Just bad service from waiter...I ordered wonton noodle soup for myself. So, he assumed we going to share, he brought out extra bowls and chopsticks, so I told him "we don't need it"...he actually not happy (he must have a bad morning)....when he brought the beef chowfun dish out, he actually slammed the dish on the table really loud. My wife looked at me, she wasn't too happy by his action. We was there to have a nice lunch, not begged for some food....After all that I still leave a tip ,not for him, for collective services. That's the last time we be there for any happy meal.....bad service on his part!!! read more

I was fist time for dinner here. It is very expensive to eating here. I need to pay for tea and rice . Rice is 2.50 per Bowl. I ordered 8 entrees and came with no rice. They said if I want the rice , I need to pay. So I paid for the rice and tea. I think tea is 2 dollar. I remember When I eat at PF Cheng, I never pay for the rice. I recommend to eat to PFCheng Better than eating at HK dim sum. Be aware to eating at this restaurant. They change for everything. read more

We went here today and the food was great! Was a bit confused when we first walked in - you can order food to go at the counter and there isn't a host stand - but when the server noticed us we were quickly seated. The service was fine and they brought us water and tea without asking before the person pushing the carts around arrived. Food was delicious and the free tea is a nice addition. The prices aren't listed, which is kind of typical, but it is frustrating that the server carried a menu in their apron and does not give it to you. However, the specials are good and there are many options available the cart. I really enjoyed the green beans. Would definitely recommend and return! read more

I came here with a coworker for lunch because we stayed at a nearby hotel. Wow, what terrible dim sum this place has. With large Asian population in Seattle, you'd expect decent quality dim sum, but not at this place. Nothing tasted right and many dim sum items were clearly store-bought or acquired in bulk and merely steamed or warmed up. We usually get a variety of dim sum items but after 3 items, it was enough for us to leave... You are better off getting store-bought frozen dim sum and warm it at your own home... This place is really that bad. read more

Definitely my favorite dim sum place in Seattle. I second those reviews regarding the super friendly service here. It's really hard to find in a dim sum restaurant. To me all the dim sum in Seattle taste the same. I really can't tell the difference between this one and the other ones with good reviews in Chinatown (plus, the service in Chinatown is just bad). I also tried the BBQ duck a few times. Loved it. read more

Ten minutes away by car and food was ice cold and there was no rice!!! Had ordered the family meal and had to sift through the"good chicken for bones!!! The only thing that was ok was the sesame chicken but after awhile it would need rice which they didn't give me!!! Highly recommend you order somewhere else!! read more

Surprisingly food here is amazingly good , soup dumplings (Shio Long bau) r excellent , better than Dough Zone. Owner and staff are extremely friendly .

I often come to HK Dim Sum when I'm craving Dim Sum while in the North End of Seattle. It's usually high traffic and busy during the mornings of the weekends and evenings through out the week. The dim sum is good. It's always served hot and promptly. Although the Dim Sum is 9/10 what prevents me from giving this place a favorable rating of 3 or higher is there service is a hit or miss. Some days they're kind some days they will be such in a rush that they carelessly spill the hot steam from the Dim Sum plates on your lap or spill water on you. What's really frustrating is depending on the waiter they will not allow you to leave unless you give a favorable tip. For example: if you decide to pay with card they will check your receipt and see how much tip you gave ( my family was planning to give tip in cash) a waitress said we would not be allowed to leave without giving 15 percent tip although she spilled hot water on my relatives lap and spilled water on our table. when we told her we'd pay with cash she gave us a blank stare and looked until we left the 15% cash tip until then did she leave us alone. Food is great but service is a hit or miss and forcing customers to give a tip when service is bad is a No. read more
