Haven't been to Jumbo in years. They still push the carts for dim sum (11:00am-2:45pm weekdays, 10:00am-2:45pm weekends). The same carts kept on coming around; extremely limited selection with dishes in the $6.75-$9.95 price range. - 4x Tea ($1.00 each) - make sure to check your bill. They were going to charge kids/babies for tea. - Ha gao - Shumai - Steamed jumbo shrimp rice roll - Steamed curry squid - Steamed sticky rice - Deep fried sesame balls with red bean paste - Stir fried wide rice noodles with beef ($18.95) - Singapore fried rice vermicelli ($18.95) Subpar dim sum, noodle lunch specials were even less memorable. Wouldn't come back anytime soon. 2.5 stars. read more

Legacy post from 2019 Jumbo is a satisfactory dim sum designation with more westernized/fusion dim sum items. I would rate my overall experience at 7.5/10. Highlights: - Dimsum: Bamboo shoot roll, Beef meatball, Dessert read more

Jumbo Dim Sum Dining - Dim Sum Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Visited this place for dimsum a few times and here's what I noticed: The food is mediocre but nothing special, and always lukewarm. The same dishes are pushed around 3-4 times. Maybe they just want us to finish their leftovers and eventually customers will eat it because there's nothing new coming out from the kitchen and everyone is hungry. The hostess let her friends skip the line - which happens but don't make it so obvious and in the middle of lunch rush with a line out the door. The cleaning staff takes empty dishes off the table while we are eating which is fine. But please don't touch my food and rearrange my plates. You just touched the garbage bin and now my food. Cross contamination 101. read more

We came here on Victoria Day at noon, the place was packed with long lines, however we were seated in less than 30 mins, turnaround was pretty quick. Food was passable when they came out hot, but after being on the carts for a while they were not as palatable as they grew cold. There was not much variety, the same foods were being cycled through the entire time we were there. read more

The food is amazing with top quality taste. The service is efficient, welcoming and kind. The restaurant has an abundant vibe of people extremely happy and delighted about their food + service. Highly recommend this place! SO GOOD!!! read more

So this place makes me happy because they have the carts going around where you can choose the food. This is my first time here. Not much to look at interior wise, but clean. Service is curt but quick which is generally the norm for Dim Sum restaurants. We went with friends and chose fairly safe options that were Western in nature. Whe we go next time, we will choose more adventurous items. We decided on fried rice, Shanghai noodles, shrimp with veggies, shrimp dumplings, a beef dish, and a dessert. Nothing stoodout for being the best or worse of what we got. What I can say is that everything came out fresh and properly cooked. We enjoyed our meal and it was pretty quick for dishes to come around. I would like to come back and try some more less familar dishes. read more

Food was pretty good friendly staff went there 3 x while visiting from so California had the dim sum

No delivery!!! Very short temper. Non-cool phone message. Ridiculous, will never order from here again.

Went for dim sum today. First time in almost three years, since the start of the Covid pandemic. The food and service was excellent. It's pricey but delicious read more

So happy carts are back & this time there are signs on the side so you can see what's heading your way before it gets to your table. We've been going for years and went back recently for the first time since covid. Dishes were fresh and hot, but we did notice the prices have gone up quite a bit. read more

Excellent food, clean kitchen and friendly and always busy in a good way. The traditional dim sum is consistent Year after year. I cannot recommend it more highly. read more

Great food. Wide selection continually coming out from the kitchen. Fast. Friendly service.

Visited: July 7 2019 The group of us was in town for a day and decided to look for dim sum. We came across Jumbo after searching on yelp and it had decent reviews. The location was a bit odd (seemed to be in an industrial area) and parking in the strip mall was limited. We went in and the restaurant was quite busy - not surprising since it's Sunday lunch time. We quickly got a number/ticket from the hostess and waited for a table. We were just tickled that it's old-school dim sum (ie pushing carts) since it's petty much obsolete in Vancouver. We were pleasantly surprised that we only waited maybe 15 minutes for a table of 4. Once sat down and have our tea ordered, we didn't wait long for the dim sum ladies to push their carts toward us and shower our table with goodies. Overall the food is quite good! It's not refined but it's satisfying nonetheless. Portions are generous, service is quick and prices are reasonable. I loved how the dim sum ladies paused by our table and make just enough eye contact to make us feel guilty for not ordering anything. Good job ladies! It really was a treat coming here, brought back so many childhood memories. If I am ever back in Edmonton again, I'll definitely revisit. Ordered: Deep fried squid Beef ball dumplings Baked BBQ pork buns with pineapple crust Chicken feet Beef rice roll (cannelloni) Curry squid Pork siu mai Shredded pork and century egg congee (not pictured) read more

Good place for Chinese dim sum, great customer service! I would recommend this ! Convenience location as well!

This is our favourite Chinese restaurant to go to and eat here regularly for dinner and sometimes for dim sum. The dim sum is delicious and prices reasonable. I find they give you large portions for around $4.25. I like the sticky rice, dumpings, tofu stuffed with shrimp, shrimp cakes, and rice rolls. The dinner dishes I've had are delicious and we've had a variety including tofu hot pot, fish, chicken, crab claw, beef, lobster with noodles, bird's nest, peaches and shrimp, and beef brisket. I also really enjoy the tofu with vegetables soup. They come out quickly, the service is wonderful, and I like the dessert buffet with the almond cookies and red bean soup. read more

My family has been coming to Jumbo Dim Sum for about 5 years now and they are our go to location. Our go tos always include sticky rice, beef rice rolls, pan fried pork dumplings, steamed pork buns, curried squid (my fave), sticky rice, onion cakes and spring rolls (for the chitlins) and then a couple surprise items each week. A side note about the curried squid - it is my absolute favourite dish to order here and the sauce is excellent over sticky rice but if it goes round and round the room on the cart too long it can get kinda rubbery, so be sure to get it fresh or when it first comes out. The egg tarts tend to disappoint me here which is a bummer because they are one of my very favourite things in the world. Getting a table here can be tough at times as they are quite busy which is of course a good sign! My kids love sitting by the tanks of crabs and lobsters which keep them entertained throughout the meal. They can accomodate large groups here with a separate eating area as well as LARGE wooden circle table tops they lay down atop the smaller tables. Service is quick and the prices are moderate compared to other Dim Sum places in town. We've also ordered take out for dinner and unfortunately, both times items were either missing or wrong upon arriving home and when calling to initially order or try to rectify, language was a barrier. So, my experience with takeout is definitely disappointing but the Dim Sum keeps me coming back for sure. See you soon, Jumbo! read more

Food was okay. Portion was small for the price we paid. Good thing they open on Christmas Eve.

Not great. There's a lot better Dim Sum in Edmonton. Almost anywhere in Chinatown has better product.

Food quality Has gone down And prices have gone way up .This restaurant used to be good ,But I do not recommend it now. The Vegetables were soggy and the meat Was tough. We'll not go back. read more

They would've gotten 4 stars if the experience wasn't tarnished at the very end. This was my second visit after 3 years. The food is very delicious and the service is quite fast. We came for the lunch time dim sum and were served food within 5 mins of our arrival. Each item from the dim sum menu is around $5-6. The only thing I wouldn't spend my money on is the spring rolls. They are amazing but you only get 3 tiny ones for $6. Most places average out $1 a spring roll. If you want to order off of the menu then prepare to pay around $13-18 per item. I'd suggest coming with a group because the food and money can pile up fast. At first all was well, the waitresses were very attentive, prompt, and polite. The manager wasn't the most friendliest though. We had 3 different women serving us and they were fantastic but one of them was a little pushy. She hovered over all of the tables and just wouldn't give you a moment to read the menu and write down your choices. She also came and took our card away before we were even finished. We arrived after the lunch rush and the restaurant was dead. I didn't see the need for her rush as if the restaurant was going to crumble down any minute. We had ordered extra food on purpose to take home for lunch/dinner the next day. At the end of our visit we had asked for boxes and said we wouldn't mind boxing it ourselves. The waitress insisted on her doing it for us and told us not to worry she'll get it all. I knew we should've double checked before we left because once we got home we noticed that they only boxed up 1/2 of our leftovers. As you could imagine we were extremely upset especially after paying $70 and leaving a decent tip despite the restaurant being very empty. I called back to ask about the food and they apologized and said they'd leave it on the counter and we could come back for it whenever. I told them it was not acceptable and we'd like a fresh batch of the food they tossed out and we'd pick it up the next day. The woman on the phone was apologetic and agreed to make a fresh batch of the items they forgot to pack and have it waiting the following day. Now here is what was very upsetting. My mom went to pick up the food only for them to hand her one out of the 3 items we had ordered. They said that we should be thankful that they're even giving us anything and we can't demand whatever we want. Really? So we can't have the items we paid for that you threw out? Absolutely ridiculous for management to speak that way especially since we had PAID for these items and due to their negligence didn't receive it in the first place. Not to mention we had to drive back when we don't live close. Because of this they receive 1 star and I will not be returning again. Very disappointing as I wanted to like it. The Tea Palace is 3 mins away is just as delicious. That has always been my first choice dim sum place. read more

Delicious, glad we found it driving through town! Wish e lived closer................

Edmonton is synonymous with dim sum for me... since it seems like that's all I do when I'm there... just kidding. I remember this restaurant being a permanent fixture from back when I was younger, but it has been at least 1+ year since I've come. I was a bit curious since I heard it had undergone some renovations. Atmosphere: 3/5 Overall convenient since it is the closest dim sum restaurant to my place. It was also nice to see quite a few patrons during the lunch hour even on a week day. Some of the tables may be a bit close to each other, but I did not mind too much. I did not notice a huge change from the renovations and it seemed quite similar to how it remembered the restaurant from years ago. Parking can be a bit of a challenge in the front lot but thankfully lots of room in the back or the street in front. Food: 4/5 It was great to see the traditional carts being pushed even during a weekday lunch hour, since there are enough customers and a small enough space to sustain this. I tend to go for the traditional dim sum selections, which this restaurant had. Portion size for the glutinous rice was huge! Buns are always a good option and the restaurant does have some specialties such as a seafood dumpling that is different but very tasty. Service: 3/5 Adequate; overall efficient Price: 3.5/5 Reasonable for the amount and quantity Overall: 3.5/5 Overall a good dim sum restaurant with good volume even during the weekdays, which creates a good casual atmosphere; conveniently located. I would definitely come again. read more

I tried jumbo for the first time this weekend with co-workers and was pretty satisfied overall. It's located pretty close to west Edmonton mall. Limited parking on a Saturday but there's lots of side street parking available. It was pretty packed for a Saturday and we made a reservation for about 10 people for 11 am. We tried a great deal of food and it was pretty tasty dim sum all in all. They had fresh pineapple buns, all the classics were pretty good (pork siu mai, all the shrimp dishes, sticky rice, congee, tofu, chicken feet, spring rolls, chicken wings etc). I was pretty impressed with how often the carts came around. They were never short of dim sum and we were all stuffed by the end. I think I'm certainly coming back with my fiancee. It definitely looks like a good spot for a larger group of friends to sample a variety of dim sum and perhaps a trip after to west Edmonton mall is in order;) read more

authentic dim sum! the only down side is that they charge an additional dollar per person for tea

This is probably my favorite dimsum joint in town. Their dishes are always consistent and the place itself is clean. No complaints here :)

There are more than just a couple of really good Chinese restaurants in the Westend. Jumbo Dim Sum Dining is one that stands out though. I bring 12/14 people out here for Chinese New Year virtually every year. It's a night that I just want to celebrate with friends and not worry about the food or the service. Every year, it's a mix of people experienced and inexperienced with Chinese food, and the variety and quality of the food comes through every time. Dim Sum here is very good, but I think that downtown and the Southside still have an edge on Dim Sum in general. The quality is fine, but I find the variety wanting. Like all Chinese restaurants that serve mainly a Chinese clientele with a good westerner following, the English and Chinese menus are not exactly the same. The specials are only written in Chinese. So, if you want the really authentic food, ask the staff. What makes this a good choice for mixed groups is that the CHINESE food is authentic and done well, but the food Chinese cook for Westerners is also done well and honestly pretty tasty. It's pretty much the only place I'll eat lemon chicken or sweet and sour pork. Even though, it's breaded and fried, it's not too salty or too soaked in neon sauce (none of which is Chinese). In sum, this is a really accessible restaurant that cooks food really well whether or not it's authentic Chinese or Chinatown westernised Chinese. Service can get strained when it's busy on the weekends or Chinese New Year, but I've never had a problem with the quality of the food or the speed of the food getting to the table, even when they have to get Peking Duck out, then a soup and then the rest of the dishes; that's a tricky service to get done right. read more

Jumbo Dim Sum Dining - Dim Sum Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Went here on a sunday with a large party of 12. Good from the beginning with seating in the VIP room. Our American relatives were happy with this. After that, lots of carts with lots of variety. Topped up the tea water regularly and cleared the empty plates occasionaly but often enough. 12 people ate to the fullest for $165. Good dim sum. read more

This is my favourite Dim Sum restaurant! My family and I have been coming here for years. We have tried other places but nothing beats Jumbo! The parking is very limited but there is parking on the side streets. We like to go there for dim sum on Sunday's but really you need to be there at 10 (when they open) if you don't want to wait in line, as this place is busy around the clock on weekends. If you do end up waiting it's worth the wait and they are so fast and accurate it's not a very long wait. They have the usually dim sum delights... shrimp dumplings, shrimp cakes, congee, sticky rice, chicken feet, rice noodle rolls,chicken wings, pork ribs in black bean sauce,tripe, stuffed green peppers, stuffed eggplant, radish cakes, pork buns, mango pudding.... Not only is the food delicious, the stuff are very efficient and friendly. They have the carts continuously going and the staff catering and cleaning... it's actually impressive of how fast they get people in and out of there... that's why no matter how long the line up is the wait is never that long as opposed to other restaurants. read more

Jumbo is my go to Dim Sum. We've tried quite a few and none have compared to the value and variety you'll find here. Stand outs include beef rice rolls, sticky rice, and fried pork dumplings. Come early or be prepared to wait. You know it's good, when you are surrounded by Asian families gathering around the communal table for several hours of eats on a weekend morning. Bonus: lobsters and fish entertain children for hours if you can score a table near them. read more

During the weekend at lunch this place is packed. You have to fight your way through wave after wave of humans to get a number and then wait patiently for a crammed seat, and sometimes you have to sit with strangers. This is probably a put off for most folks, but I don't mind it at all because you know you are going to get some damned good Dim Sum. Curry squid, shumai, sticky rice, pan fried dumpling are must haves or you are shorting yourself on life. The coconut buns are tasty as well. I have been to other dim sum joints, most notable the old Noodle Noodle downtown, but this place sets the bar for variety and taste. read more

This is one of the better dim sum places in Edmonton. The Dim Sum is served old style on carts so one gets to pick stuff after seeing it. A good idea as a lot of staff had trouble communicating when I asked for stuff. It does get busy so if you are large group be prepared to wait. A smaller group or two people in my case always get seated without much of a wait. Har Gow is above average, so are the beef meat balls. I do like the shrimp in rice noodles and the Beef on skewers with BBQ sauce is my favorite dish here. Fried items are not that great actually. Parking is quite tight and hard to get so I recommend parking a little bit away in the next lot and just walk here. The Egg custard tart were below average and were didn't have much flavor. It is much better than the other places I have tried in Edmonton so I would recommend it over them for sure as it is authentic stuff. 3.5 Stars. read more

Expensive and only worthy for making a 1 star review. Ordered 6 items, the chicken chow menu tasted like old fish water and the dim sum was unremarkable. Stingy with soya sauce and chilli paste. Pretty sure the chilli paste is Franks Hot Sauce which I dislike. Even stingy with toothpicks. The mango pudding came with condensed milk.....Had a junk meal for $70 after tip. Will never go back. How this is listed as one of the top in the city is a mystery. read more

This restaurant has a warm and cozy vibe to it, like restaurants I used to go to as a kid. Quite dated, but cozy. While the dim sum is not vegan friendly, there are items on the non dim sum menu for vegetarians and vegans to eat. This was a bit of a let down because most dim sum places have at least a few vegan items these days. I ordered buddha's delight. The menu indicated there were bean curds and veggies in it, but the bean curds turned out to be bean sprouts. Also a let down because I ordered the dish with the expectation of there being protein of some form. The only reason I still gave this restaurant an okay was because the food tasted delicious despite missing a key ingredient. I wouldn't recommend this place for anyone vegan or vegetarian, but the other people I went with seemed to really enjoy the dim sum. read more

Great place for Chinese food. Dinner or dimsum - both are very tasty. Have been coming here for years and have to say that it's very authentic, regardless of the demographic. Prices are reasonable and can get very crowded during peak hours. read more

Traditional dimsum carts. Plus: fun to watch carts and try different food. Minuses: took 45 minutes to get three dishes we wanted because the same carts went round and round. Like the Matrix loop but even more annoying. Generally, this is not the case but it is enough to send you to a dimsum place to order. V good sticky rice, novel items like bbq chicken and a huge pile of calamari. read more

Came here with guys from work and we really enjoyed it. They have people with carts that go around and you pick what you like. Or you can order off a menu. We ordered a big plate of salt and hot squid then picked a bunch of things as they came around. All the food was great and the squid was a stand out. Salty with just a bit of heat. Also a highlight was the bbq steam buns. I was a great place for lunch read more

Excellent. Fresh and hot! Love going here for dim sum. Usually order too much, but can take it home for later
