Came here because I was craving some Chinese food after having so much French food. It definitely satisfied the craving. They have an English menu and a very lovely server that spoke English. Here's what we had: -Fried shrimps and egg roll with sweet dipping sauce - very good and very similar to what I'm used to in L.A. -Noodles with shrimp - tasty and they had sambal oelek to drench it with. -Cantonese fried rice - probably my favorite. The rice was cooked to perfection and had a great flavor. -Imperial shrimps - a lot of shrimp with onions and a lot of garlic. The shrimp could've been cooked a little more but good nonetheless We had jasmine tea that was delicious. I would really recommend anyone staying in the area to try this place is you are craving Chinese food. It really hits the spot. read more

Dim Sum in Paris. Shoot why not? Reviews were great. My husband loves dim sum. So we figured let's go get some. For us, it was A-OK. Probably tasted better to us because we were tired of pizza, sandwiches, etc. loved that they have an all you can eat option. they have a set menu for their all you can eat. once they bring out their set menu items you're allowed to inform them of which items you'll like to eat more of. why i loved that they have an all you can eat option? the price for it was pretty reasonable compared to everything else we've been eating in europe. it gave us the opportunity to try a little bit of everything. did it taste like dim sum in LA? unfortunately not. nothing was super memorable to me and once i tried each item i didn't really wanna reorder anything. the XLB had no juice inside of it. which i totally was disappointed about. esp when XLB is known to be good because it is juicy. service was pretty good. food came out really quick. you'll leave smelling like deep fried food since they make some of the food right in front of the window. overall, if you want to get more bang for your buck and wanna have some asian food then i would say try it out. if not it's definitely passable. tips: *accepts credit cards and cash *restrooms are available. *staff speaks english, french, and chinese. *street parking *serves alcohol. *takes reservation. *no wifi. *ask for tap water to save $ *within walking distance to the metro. read more

The dim sum has a lot of carb, no real meat in it. I was looking for shrimp dumplings but there is no shrimp in it. The main dish is similar to the take out. The best item I found is the Vietnamese spring roll read more

Maybe I've been ruined by Taiwan's own Din Tai Fung, but no Xiao Long Bao dish has ever quite lived up to those visits. Having said that, La Maison du Dim Sum will certainly satisfy even an aggressive craving for dim sum of any sort, and their fast and friendly service will make sure your entire experience is enjoyable. Star 1: How were the service and atmosphere? While La Maison du Dim Sum isn't exactly in the thick of the tourist friendly spots around Paris, it's tucked away in a nice part of town that's certainly worth walking at the very least. Once inside, a trilingual staff will make sure you're taken care of in an atmosphere that's quaint and comfortable. The highlight of my Saturday evening visit was the speed of service, which ended up producing some XLB no more than ten minutes after I'd ordered it. Star Granted. Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost? My six piece order of Xiao Long Bao came in at €9,00, or €1,50 per piece. That's not exactly knock out value, but it's not unreasonable either given the wide variety of dim sum that's available here and essentially nowhere else in the city. Other menu items are priced accordingly, and it honestly wouldn't be difficult to be in and out while fully satisfied for €10 or so. Star Granted. Stars 3 and 4: How was the food? I'll start off here with my definition of the perfect Xiao Long Bao, which is of course exactly what Din Tai Fung dishes up - tasty and soft casing that holds within its bosom a decent portion of soupy goodness and a small ball of pork that produces the aforementioned goodness. La Maison du Dim Sum was certainly in the same ballpark here, but there was room for improvement as well. The casing was a bit firm and sticky, and while there was a very generous portion of pork inside, there was no soup, which made the whole thing a bit dry. Flavor wise the components were there, but I'll admit I needed a bit of soy and hot sauce to bring the dish together. Not bad, but not what I would call elite. Single Star Granted. Star 5: Would you eat here every day if you could? La Maison du Dim Sum probably has the widest selection of dim sum in Paris, but I wouldn't say the quality is quite high enough to have me coming back every time I'm in town. No Star Granted. read more

I didn't have high hopes - how could you in any all-you-can-eat deal? You go in with the caveat that it couldn't be great. And yet, the dim sum was quite fresh, and the array of Chinese dishes was varied enough to satisfy all tastes. I do wish there was more variety to the dim sum itself, but I appreciated that the lady doling out the bamboo baskets was generous and non-judgmental no matter how many times I went back (that is, an unladylike amount). There was only one server seating, getting drinks, and bussing all the tables, but he was highly efficient and friendly from beginning to end. He was quick to greet everyone coming in the door, and made sure we had enough water, fresh napkins, and a good meal. The price cannot be beat, and this was one of my better experiences with Asian food in Paris. read more

Not the XLB I was expecting at this restaurant. It wasn't soup-y and was very dry. There was more dough (outer shell) than there was meat in my XLB. Not a fan. read more

A great dim sum place in Paris -- probably one of the best. The quality of the food maybe not as unique or refined as the best dim sum restaurant we find in LA but their food is way above average even by SoCal standards. The dim sum are generously filled with ingredients that are evidently very fresh. There are about 7 different steamed dim sum as well as a pan fried bite. They also serve a selection of deep fried bites, the mini-nem is absolutely delicious. Family owned. The owner herself steams and pan fries in the window of the restaurant. The staff was extremely friendly during our visit. A great place to go to for you dim sum cravings in Paris! read more

surprisingly good dim sum in Paris - who would have thought haha. on our first night in paris, it was raining and we didnt want to venture too far out for dinner so La maison du Dim Sum was closest to our apartment. i noticed the staff speaking to each other in Chinese so i figured this place had to be somewhat decent for dim sum haha. luckily our server spoke very fluent english and she was able to explain the restaurant concept to us - which is basically all you can eat for dinner at around 17 euros. me and justin b. thought this sounded like a good deal so we thoguht why not haha. so the meal is served to you in 'courses' - first course is a selection of your typical dim sum selection like har gow and shiu mai and other steamed dumplings. then its a plate of deep fried goodies like egg rolls. then we were able to choose an entree with rice which was like a chicken satay and fried rice. then after those 3 rounds you can ask for more of anything that you had already been served. we were so full at this point that we couldnt do a 2nd round of anything but overall the food was pretty good. comparable to dim sum places that i've been to back at home in LA. we decided to just move onto a dessert course and we chose fried bananas. all in all - great friendly service, English friendly for tourists, and good asian dim sum that will satisfy any asian food craving that you may have haha read more

Alright people, to anyone saying that this dim sum is comparable to LA dim sum, you need a reality check or you need to go back to LA and have me take you around. Maybe it was the fact that I went and it was a lunch buffet. I guess I should have known from the fact that it was a buffet. But I definitely feel a little fooled by the pictures online... This wasn't real dim sum, guys. Sorry. But to all y'all thinking that this is a dim sum place, it actually just has 4 little "vapeurs" (steamed dim sum) and one of them I have never seen in my life after uncountable experiences having dim sum in Hong Kong, LA, SF, and China. It was definitely a self-created, not very tasty rice ball thing that was just strange. Anyways, aside from the small portion of dim sum they had available, there were also fried rice and side dishes like sautéed vegetables and such. They all had the same sauce. Don't come here expecting real Asian food! Nobody there even spoke Chinese! read more

Niiiiiice. That restaurant succeeded in making me appreciate Chinese food (I don't know why, but I have never been a huge fan of Chinese dishes, except fried appetizers - so that place was a cool discovery). Definitely go for the 16.80€ all-you-can-eat menu. The highlight is on dim sums, served fried, grilled and of course steamed. They bring you plates with one of each dim sum they serve, for you to taste (about 12 varieties in total, mainly with pork and with shrimp). Everything is sooooo good, and you can re-order as many as you wish. Only downside: my boyfriend is not a huge fan of shrimp, so we asked whether we could get more of the pork and chicken ones, and it was apparently not possible. Besides this lack of flexibility, we loved everything about these dim sums. You can then choose main courses (marinated chicken brochettes, grilled shrimp, meat balls, served with rice or noodles) and desserts (fresh fruit salad, coconut specialty, banana doughnut). They are good, but not as exceptional as the dim sums though. Final good point: the waiters are really terrific. They explain every single item from the menu, bring you water without you having to ask for it and are overall super nice. read more

Very friendly service. Buffet all you can eat is a great deal if you are very hungry. Portions too large for kids but we all got the buffet because it was the whole table or nothing. Har gow and shumai are the standouts. Super clean and air conditioned! Two thumbs up for the lollipops for kids too at the end read more

The best Dim Sum place in Paris! Comparable with all the Dim Sum (steamed bites) that I had the chance to try in my travels (Los Angeles in particular where there is an important concentration of Dim Sum place), this one is probably the cleanest and most tasty, an unexpected surprise in the middle of Paris. The family business is run by Mika and Christine, a charming young couple. The service is very professional and everything is homemade. Menus are more than affordable, satisfaction guarantee! Plus, there are a lot of parking spot around! An experience you won't regret! read more

Service is excellent. Waiter spoke perfect English. The waiter took all his time explaining the menu. The food was very well presented and the waiter explained all the different types of dim sum. The food was very very good . Most definitely a place to return to.. Michael the waiter is a fantastic great guy and very helpful. A.must when looking for Dum sun in Paris. read more

good restaurant but the place is kind of small and the workers guys are quite slow. But I recommend it because their food was awesome

This place is by far the best Chinese food I have ever had the pleasure of eating! Run by a family with the mother in front of the house running the grill and the father running the kitchen. You really enjoy the family atmosphere! Our waitress was outstanding, her grasp of English was really great, which is good considering my level Of French is pitiful. I can't recommend this place enough. I highly recommend getting the dim sum menu option as it is great value and the flavour is amazing! read more

Great buffet lunch in what appeared to be a student oriented area. It was our only affordable & delicious meal in Paris. I loved that there was something for everyone there, the sinful fried items and mochi dessert as well as healthier veggie dishes, cabbage salad and fruit salad. I didn't love the steamed dim sum flavor at all, but that was just me perhaps. I loved the noodle dish, basic but yummy, and the shrimp dish. My mate loved the spring rolls. The servers were helpful, warm and spoke English. For the price (under 11 euros), I was more than satisfied. read more

La Maison du Dim Sum - Our meal montage, a lovely lunch! - Buffets Near Me - Paris, 75

The highlight of this restaurant was definitely the friendly and welcoming staff. Myself and two others had dinner reservations for 9:30pm. Note that the place closed at 10:30pm so we figured that by the time of our reservation we would have a half empty restaurant. That was definitely not the case. We arrived to a packed restaurant and had to wait for 15 minutes before being seated. The hard part of the restaurant was deciphering the menu (Dim Sum Section) which really wasn't clear. On the left was a description of the all you can eat and on the right was a breakdown of the a la carte Dim Sum. The difficulty in the menu was therefore two-fold. First with the All You Can eat section you basically take what they give you. The right side you were able to order Dim Sum but it was sold as per-piece and not the typical basket of two or three items, all in all a bit confusing. Second difficulty was that once we had decided and were placing our order, we were told that they would not allow one of us to order the all you can eat and the others to take the a la carte, I don't recall this being mentioned on the menu. Regarding the food itself, it was ok. They say that all the Dim Sum is fait maison but to be honest, I can't say that everything tasted homemade. If I was betting I would say it was a mix of some homemade and the others coming from the likes of Tang Freres. Overall this was a good restaurant with decent prices, but I don't think there was enough here to get me to go back. If you are looking for a quick Dim Sum fix in the center of Paris this might get you over the hump until you make it over to the 13eme. read more

When walking in I was greeted by a host who seemed like she was happy to see me. She recognized that I was a tourist because of my English speaking in Paris(I am from Texas, US). She from then on spoke English for the night. The food was magnifique and this was the best selection of Dim Sum around. It is a family owned and operated restaurant and tasted better than any other Chinese food around. Lors de la marche dans I a été accueilli par une foule qui semblait comme si elle était heureux de me voir. Elle a reconnu que je suis un touriste à cause de mon anglophone à Paris (je suis du Texas, Etats-Unis). Elle partir de là parlait anglais pour la nuit. La nourriture était magnifique et ce fut la meilleure sélection de Dim Sum autour. Il est une entreprise familiale et un restaurant exploité et goûté mieux que tout autre la nourriture chinoise autour. read more

Great local find. Went with three friends with various dietary restrictions and they were incredibly accommodating. We chose the formule for 16.50. SO MUCH FOOD! Everything was super fresh and all-you-can-eat. There is a woman who makes the dim sum at the front of the store! Amazing find. read more

My family of 4 total 2 adults and 2 teenage girls wanted some Chinese food. We did a Yelp search and found this restaurant about a mile from our apartment. The food was excellent very fresh and natural flavors. The waiter was very helpful with ordering as our French is not very good. The staff was wonderful the food excellent and the prices were reasonable especially for Paris prices. read more

We stumbled across this gem on our way home and stopped in. Family run, everyone is very nice, and the mom is making dumplings by hand in the window. What's not to like?? Would definitely go back in a second. read more

Great brunch buffet that serves really fresh food and is affordable at 10.90 euros. They have a nice selection from fresh spring rolls and salad, steamed dumplings, rice and traditional dishes (meat and veggie). All around a great deal, very welcoming service and there are even a range of dessert choices if you need something sweet to end your dining experience. read more

Lovely dim sum place in Paris. All you can eat option is the perfect way to enjoy dim sum. The service is that to die for Parisian touch.

I really hate to write a bad review when the people are nice. My fellow yelpers have let me down and I need to share so others know more. The location is fine the restaurant is fine the food is fine but well the dim sum is embarrassing. Yes I know my standards are high having lived in some of the best dim sum places in the world but really the dumplings were filled with dog food. I don't even know what kind of meat they could have put in them and I tried them all to make sure I wasn't missing anything. The buffet part is fine and the Chinese type food noodles and rice and so forth. But if you want dim sum go to china town. This is defiantly not the place to go. The price and name are tempting but I'll not be going back even if I am starving. Sorry folks. I have plenty of better places to recommend just not this time. Glad it's out of my system now I know not to wonder about it any longer. read more
