Such great memories growing up in NJ close to New York City were brought back upon entering Lam's Garden! The nice decor, warm and relaxing atmosphere. Comfy seating in the large dining room. The staff were very friendly and helpful in choosing and accommodating menu choices. Food was fresh and flavorful. The portions were enough to share with others if you're kind enough to. Chinese cuisine is one of my top favorites and Lam's for sure is a new favorite of mine! read more

We gave this restaurant a second chance and we are glad we did. Staff were really friendly and one of the owners spent a lot of time chatting to us. The dishes were similar to real Cantonese dim sum, flavorsome although a couple of the dishes aesthetically a big lacking. But it's about the taste isn't it.. We will go back and try try the steamed fish and seafood. read more

This was our first time coming here because we saw a recommendation on YouTube that was a 9.5 out of 10 which is pretty high for Chinese/Dim Sum. We shared the Crispy Shrimp Balls (I think it they were on the Dim Sum), & they were AWESOME!!!!! My hubby ordered the Sweet & Sour Pork. He really enjoyed it, but said he would have liked pineapple (ah well, no big deal). I got the Walnut Shrimp which was FABULOUS!!!!!! Both our dishes came with our favorite sticky white rice. The Service from the moment we walked in the door to the time we left was wonderful. The ladies obviously just wanted to make sure we were well taken care of. The ambiance & decor was the traditional Chinese that I've been used to. We will certainly be recommending to friends AND returning!!! read more

A traditional Chinese restaurant with courteous and efficient service. We were surprised that it wasn't very busy on a Friday evening. The food was fantastic! Perfectly seasoned, large portions. Definitely recommended! read more

Lam’s Garden - Dim Sum Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I can't think of a better Chinese sit-down restaurant than this one in Orlando. They have been here for decades and if you are a regular, they know you and treat you like family. The service is always great every time I have eaten here. They are always filling my cup and checking in on our table. They have an authentic Cantonese menu like Szechuan and Hunan specialties. They also offer dinner for two options, hot pot, dim sum and so much more. My go-to is the chicken and broccoli combo plate. I don't like the brown sauce, so I always ask for the white/garlic sauce instead and they always accommodate my request. The wonton soup... okay I know we are all familiar with this one ... but their version/style of this soup is DELICIOUS. So hearty and the wonton noodles are fresh and tasty if you love pork, of course ... which I do. They have a little bit of everything here from poultry, pork, beef, seafood and yes.... VEGETABLE DISHES. Bring the whole family. They have areas to accommodate big parties too! read more

I came here alone for brunch one saturday. And the staff were friendly and it was not too crowded. Good food but not piping hot as the small crowd didn't allow enough movement of kitchen food items. I always love the green beans here and paid around $20 for the plate of green beans and shrimp and chive dumplings. The food was tasty and I'd come back when in the area. read more

Every time my family and I go to Lam's Garden, we are always greeted and seated right away. It is a family-style authentic Chinese restaurant with plenty of seating even on peak hours. We go here mainly for the dim sum but they also have a regular menu where you can order from the kitchen. My favorites are the fish maw soup, honey walnut shrimp, and salt & pepper calamari. Pro tip: there is plenty of parking at iFresh market next door or the back of the building if there are no spots directly at the front of the restaurant. read more

Had a wonderful visit to Lam's The staff was wonderful. They are able to make real up north almond boneless chicken. It's not on the menu but they will make it. It's so nice to be able to eat Chinese food in the restaurant where it always tastes the best. read more

I love this place! It's far from me but it's the only " hole in the wall" type Chinese food I can find in Orlando, I love how they have cheap lunch specials and I love the authentic feeling inside! Everything is good here! I love the food. The egg drop soup is amazing. The service is very fast and good as well, all the servers help each other out. They have a fish tanks in the front and they have an authentic Asian grocery store next door! I love this place! I don't understand why this place has lower reviews. Doesn't deserve that. read more

We were vacation in Orlando during Chinese New Year 2025 - Snake year. We thought to search for a good Chinese restaurant in Orlando. We were far from home, Vancouver, BC, as we are spoiled with good Chinese restaurant with many options. We had an amazing dinner at Lam's Garden in Orlando, FL. So good! . I am happy I made reservations in advance. The service was fantastic as the staff kept apologizing for the wait of the food as it was really busy evening. When the dishes arrived, it was hot and quite tasty. The decor is typical of traditional, old style, similar to many Chinese restaurants on Kingsway in Vancouver. They old us it was nice to speak with us my hubby can speak Cantonese fluently (not me). Near the end, one of the staff (could be the owner) gave us a complimentary alcohol drink which is super nice of him. It was nice to see the receipt was hand written! Lam's Garden is the oldest Chinese restaurant in Central Florida and we were very lucky to dine at Lam's Garden on one of busiest day in the year. read more

Lam’s Garden - Salt and pepper shrimp pork Steamed Roast Pork Bun Roast Duck sticky rice - Dim Sum Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I had High Hopes for this place, but it was just your run of the mill Chinese food, maybe a tad batter than some of the takeout places. The environment was a little nicer than most, but still just had that tackiness to it that made it kind of uncomfortable. Service was odd in the way that I feel we were being watched the whole time. I can't explain it, but it was just odd. I felt we were over-served in a way where as soon as you set your water glass down, someone came to refill it, even after a sip. If you're going to do that, just feed me too! The food was good. The Szechuan Chicken and Shrimp were tasty and the Orange Beef was crispy outside and tender outside. The crab Rangoons were also good, but none of it was the best we've had. I think it's a one and done for me as there are plenty of other asian restaurants in the area which are much better. For good Chinese, we'll stick with Chuan Lu Garden which isn't that far from here. read more

Our family has been dining here for as long as I can remember. We've celebrated wedding receptions, as well as celebrations of life, and everything in between here. This family-owned restaurant is serves authentic Cantonese-style Chinese cuisine. Today's review is about my dim sum experience. Service was attentive, and the food was delicious as usual.

Vegetarian options are not Vegetarian. I was recommended this spot awhile back & finally went at lunch time. They have a lunch & separate dim sum menu. You can only choose 1 to puruse, so look up the menu before arriving. I did & chose the lunch menu for the Vegetarian Buddha's delite. I felt so rushed by the server, yet everything took so long & i never saw my waiter other than dropping off the messy food. They took the chopsticks away from me & gave me silverware, so i had to ask twice to have chopsticks back. The water cup i received was dirty. The food was fine. Tasted just like take out chinese. Nothing unique, flavorful, or special like other comparable restaurants in orlando. I received pork in my Buddha's delite which was the only Vegetarian dish on thd lunch menu. The table next to me ordered the same & i overheard their confusion as well. I unfortunately was there much longer than a typical lunch service. The most bizarre thibg was the staff wore black bow ties & white button ups. This spot didn't give off black tie vibes. Its decor is clean, but old & falling apart. Im glad i finally can check this off my list, but i dont see what's special. Totally fine place. read more

I had dinner here during the week. We were a big group and seated at two large round tables. Each table had our own server but they worked together to take care of us. The menu was huge and offered a big variety, including the typical dishes you would see on the menu at a Chinese restaurant. I ordered a shrimp dish and my husband ordered the beef curry. The portions were good and I had leftovers for lunch the next day. Once we were done, the staff was very helpful in taking group pictures. I would like to go back on the weekend and check out the dim sum cart. read more

Favorite dim sum in Orlando! They serve cart-style on the weekends. Service is always very prompt, even if the dining room is full. The dining room is old fashioned, but I think it elevates the traditional dim sum experience. The food is soooo good, and nicely priced! My go-tos are the green beans and the crispy shrimp balls. read more

I ordered in the lunch menu the peppers steak plate and it tasted very bad like in bad condition and the rice was old and not yummy, we didn't receive the soup of the lunch and the lady insist to tip them. Of course we didn't. I called later because I got sick and the owner yelled me like crazy. I just wanted to make sure that they know the food was bad and don't get sick anyone else NEVER BACK AGAIN. One start is too much read more

Had the roast pork with pan fried noodles. It was excellent. Always good food and good service here - and reasonably priced as well. I highly recommend it. read more

I came for lunch to have some dim sum. I wasn't aware that the carts only come out on Saturday and Sunday. They offer it other days by menu only unfortunately. This is one of the most average Chinese restaurants I can recall. I don't know how old the fried rice is. It must be made in big batches since I couldn't substitute their roast pork fried rice for my usual vegetable fried rice choice. That's never a good sign of fresh quality. The fried rice tastes like maybe it's been reheated from a few days ago, very bland and dry. Pouring the remainder of my tiny cup of Wonton soup on top helped a little bit, but not enough to mask the stale taste. The Hunan Beef was very decent with a little bit of spice and a nice variety of vegetables in a slightly watery sauce. The wonton soup could use some more flavor. It did have some chopped scallions and shredded roast pork slices in it so I must commend them for that. The service is a little confused about when to bring out the soup and entree. They apologized profusely for the small error. No big deal. I would like to come back for dinner to try what I really came here for, the DIM SUM. I hope that it is on par with the restaurants in NJ, PA, and NYC. read more

Lam’s Garden - 9. Hunan Beef Lunch Special Combo Plate - Dim Sum Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I stopped by the restaurant for lunch on Wednesday, January 11, 2023. I've patronized the establishment many times in the past and this review is based solely on their lunch special menu of that day. The restaurant has a full lunch and dim sum menu available however, I opted for their lunch special combination plate. There are approximately twenty different combination plates available with most selections at the $9.95 price level. The combination plates come with your choice of soup (wonton or egg drop), rice (steamed or fried), and a vegetable egg roll. I opted for the Chicken Lo Mein plate with Wonton Soup. The Wonton Soup came out rather quickly and was accompanied by a bowlful of Fried Wonton Strips. Upon tasting the soup, the broth was lukewarm...the real kicker was the ground pork in the wonton was cold. Definitely not a good start to my meal. When the main meal arrived I was expecting a better experience but, unfortunately it didn't come to fruition. The Fried Rice and Vegetable Egg Roll were bland and the Chicken Lo Mein was a little too oily for my taste. This particular day may be a one-off as to the meal I was served as I plan to continue to visit Lam's Garden in the future however, next time I will select items from their dim sum menu instead. read more

Best dim sum we have found in Orlando. There are still other places we need to try but the dim sum here is always amazing. The flavors of every dish truly pop. The stuffed shishito peppers are spicy and savory. The pork buns are personal favorite. My one wish is they have a spoon for the soup dumpling so we wouldn't lose the delicious broth. Love this spot and has become a regular date night for us. The service is quick. I personally love that they give you some space to enjoy the food. read more

By far the best Dimsum in Orlando--- one is even close! Fresh and perfectly made--! I've eaten Dimsum all over the Asian Pacific--this is right there with them. read more

This was my family's first time trying this restaurant, we had delivery and I really wanted to give 4 stars- the food was actually very fresh and good but I have to give a 1-2 star for there boneless ribs/ I'm use to small pieces chopped up and very tender.. I don't know what this was they sent but it was all hard as a rock and did not even taste like pork!! They were huge big fat pieces not even cut up, my husband was very disappointed as that's one of his favorite meals but we never seen it made like this, plus is was way over cooked and the meat was hard!! The pork fried rice was out of this world, the wonton soup was very good but the crunchy noodle they give with the soup was very stale, not so crispy. read more

This restaurant is one of the better dim sum places in Orlando. Their dim sum service is really cool since they push the carts around allowing you to see what they have while also being able to order from a menu as well. A lot of cool Chinese designs with dragon patterns on their architecture all around the room. The food is pretty good, however, i will say the service isn't the greatest. read more

Lam’s Garden - Dim Sum Near Me - Orlando, Florida

This restaurant was amazing. First off, I like a location that is well maintained and clean in appearance. Lam's Garden is that place that takes great care keeping the environment clean and inviting. We ordered the Pan Fried Dumplings which were quite large and overstuffed. Delicious and were served with a dipping sauce. We also ordered the Double Fried Pork which I asked to be Very Spicy, but it wasn't that spicy or at least to what I was expecting. However it was very tasty and was full of meat and very fresh vegetables. My husband ordered the Kung Bo Chicken which he asked to be prepared without any vegetable, just the peanuts and sauce. This was very good and full of flavor. We will definitely be back to this location. One of the best Asian Restaurants in the Orlando Area on 50. read more

We have been coming to this place for the longest time. It's traditional Cantonese Chinese food and dim sum at a slightly higher price point. Came here more recently to celebrate a friends nuptials. We had a party of 8'and were able to make a reservation. Service was great, they were very attentive and food brought out quickly. Although food was tasty, felt like it was lacking something. The baby clams were a bit sandy and although lobster presentation was there, it was a bit over cooked. No oranges or fortune cookies at the end. Also no changing table in bathroom. Side note: ha cent been here recently for dim sum, but I do like how they use the metal carts for the food, it keeps the food hot! read more

This and Peter's are our go to place for Dim Sum brunch. Depends how long the wait is where lol. Love the owner and his son. They always come to ask how everything was with our meal. Also, they make sure water glasses and tea are filled. Full of filled carts with many choices of meat, poultry,vegetables and desserts. Your charged individually for each choice by the cart servers. Really enjoy our meals here very much. There is also a separate menu if you'd rather order separately or add to your dim sum order. The place is always busy and the food quality is very good and tasty. Not an overly fancy place but has a cool lobster tank to check out. Try the crispy duck, stuffed eggplant, beef ribs, shrimp shumai , broccoli, steamed pork dumplings, pineapple rolls and sesame balls. read more

Lams garden is located on colonial in the plaza next to the iFresh market. It's not a fancy place, but it's very traditionalooking. Fish tank when you walk in, Lazy Susan is on the table. I've been going there for many years since I was young it's never truly bustling when I go there but I never have to wait for a table and the food is consistently good. My family likes to go there for dim sum, we never have any issues with freshness or quality. They have even made dim sum especially for my daughter who is vegan I especially love the shumai and their steamed pork ribs are better than most. There are a few dim sum spots to choose from in Orlando now which wasn't the case before this may not be the best dim sum I ever had but you don't have to wait in any lines out the door for hours and it's delicious they have carts that come around and it's quick and tasty . Give it a try. read more

What a disappointment. Maybe they have a new owner, or at least a new chef. We used to really enjoy this place but tonight's entrées were almost inedible. Tso's chicken was in brown gravy Horrible, salty brown gravy. With broccoli chunks and sliced carrots!? The broccoli beef was just as bad. read more

Great food, excellent service. Egg rolls are on point, especially with the at table spicy mustard and duck sauce. Orange Beef is great, large portions. If you enjoy Chinese food this is a good comfort pick. My only suggestion since I see a lot of comments on ambience is a simple one; should utilize a music playlist or a streaming service like Spotify instead of the radio (the radio ads are distracting). Traditional / Instrumental music will go a long way (instead of rock/classic/pop) read more
