If there was six stars this restaurant would get that! This place is off the chain amazing! Our first time in and now we can't wait to come back unfortunately we live three hours away. The price of the menu items are so affordable! Dishes came out fast, and one or two at a time but we did not mind. Every item we ordered was delicious especially the chicken feet. The honeycomb was a bit challenging to eat but not bad if you can overcome the texture. The ambience was warm and cozy. Staff was friendly enough. read more

There is no staff at the check-in counter. No extra spoons or forks were provided for dessert, and bowls and plates were not cleared away after dish was finished. Overall, the service staff lacked even the slightest bit of experience. All the dishes were cold and salty; it felt more like pre-made takeout food than something prepared fresh on-site, and there was no flavor other than saltiness. The space looks nice, but there is a smell of grease; the exhaust system is terrible. This was my first time here; I wanted to give it a try because the photos and 4-star reviews made it look promising, but the food was actually terrible read more

Overall, I really enjoyed the restaurant. The atmosphere was great, and the food was okay. However, one aspect of the pricing policy didn't make sense to me. I was surprised that the tea was charged per cup rather than as a single pot shared among the people at the table. It seems more reasonable to charge for the pot itself instead of charging each person individually for tea from the same pot. read more

We ordered delivery items: lotus wrapped sticky rice, bbq pork fried rice, shrimp rice roll, rice-roll wrapped chinese doughnut, and bbq pork buns. 1) sticky rice was too minimal; chicken piece inside overly large, lop cheung overly small, mushrooms far too big. Not bad flavors but problematic in textures, & is lacking actual rice. 2) bbq pork fried rice didn't have right hot-wok taste. Meh. 3) bbq pork buns - fine 4) chinese doughnuts: No hoi sin sauce was provided??! 5) shrimp rice rolls--looked great, texture good, but again NO SAUCE provided. That is part of these dishes. Should be included. Overall might have been ok in-house, but lacking crucial tadte ingredients when delivering really killed the overall appeal. read more

First time dining in the restaurant, only had takeout before. Service was super slow this Father's Day morning and our server was missing for long periods of time during our meal. Other servers jumped in to help but they had their hands full with other tables. Food was tasty, with the exception of the egg tarts and soup dumplings. Shu Mai were juicy and plump, same with the Har Gow. Beef rice rolls were also large portioned and good. We over ordered as usual and had a lot of leftovers. Portuguese egg tarts were dry and not very flavorful - they took awhile and were the last arrive so that may have impacted their quality today. Shanghai soup dumplings had a weird broth flavor and dumpling skins came out dimpled and wrinkled. I think they were over steamed. Overall solid dim sum but not sure I'd go again unless I was in the South end and on my way back to Seattle. read more

As soon as I sat down I saw Eggslut across the way and I kinda wished I was there because as a Los Angeleno transplant, I've had good memories there. But Mr. dim Sum was fine. Everything we had was good, but I'd had better Dimsum elsewhere. What this place has if they're a new place at the mall so it's modern and clean so nothing bad to say about them. read more

With at least 100 menu items, this is the spot for any dim sum fanatic. Normally, I am wary of such a large menu, but of the ten things we tried, we enjoyed nine of them which is a high success rate! The menu has sections including steamed, fried, noodles, congee, vegetables, soups, desserts and more. Across the menu, we found traditional dim sum fare and some unique options that we normally don't see or that are spins on our favorites. Four of us came at 12:30P when the wait time was 15 - 30 minutes. We asked for a menu sheet so that we could start marking down the items that we wanted to order and that made the wait go by quickly! It was just 15 minutes before we received a ping that our table was ready and the host seated us on the left side of the restaurant, which has a quieter vibe and more space between the tables. Our waiter, Richard, poured our waters right away and after we placed our order, the food started arriving with one or two dishes at a time. In hindsight, our picks really emphasized our love of shrimp! + MIXED MUSHROOM RICE ROLL ($7.50 for 4): Ehh, I didn't like this. It was so bland and I didn't see much variation in the mushrooms either. It needed some salt at a minimum, and even adding a dab of chili oil couldn't save these. Pass! + PORK & SHRIMP WONTONS w/ HOUSE SPICY SAUCE ($10.50 for 6): A thin silky wrapper housed a small shrimp and pork meatball, making for a delicate and juicy wonton. The sauce was thin with a mild heat and touch of vinegar. + SHRIMP DUMPLINGS ($7.95 for 4): Super plump and filled with pure shrimp. The wrapper had the ideal chew and stretch. + PEA VINE & SHRIMP DUMPLINGS ($7.95 for 4): The pea vines didn't bring extra flavor to these shrimp dumplings, but they added nourishment! + HOUSE SPECIAL BBQ PORK BUNS ($7.50 for 3): Really good! The soft baked bun was filled with a scoop of minced BBQ Pork filling. The meat was pretty lean and didn't have any bits of gristle. The unique twist on these buns was their fine crumb topping, reminding me of a pineapple bun top. + DEEP FRIED STUFFED EGGPLANT w/ SHRIMP ($7.50 for 3): Despite being really oily, these were delicious! The shrimp filling was juicy and flavorful, sandwiched between two slices of eggplant. + CRISPY BEAN CURD ROLLS w/ SHRIMP ($7.50 for 3): Chopped shrimp sprinkled with veggies came wrapped in a super crispy bean curd shell. Loved this, but could feel the grease. + FRIED PEA VINES w/ GARLIC ($12.95): Tender fresh pea shoots with a slight crunch on the stems, and cooked with lots of garlic. Really good! + BEEF CHOW FUN ($13.50): This was as expected between the delicate rice noodles and tender beef. The sauce wasn't overly salty either, but the portion was on the small side for the price. + STEAMED MALAY SPONGE CAKE ($6.50): A nice light dessert. It was airy and not too sweet. The service as a whole was friendly, professional and attentive. Different waitstaff would walk by and pick up our empty plates often which was helpful since the food piled up fast! In general, many items come with three pieces, so for the four of us, we had to end up ordering double of a couple things. Our total was $122 before tip. For our leftovers, Richard gladly packed some ice in a cup, when we asked, which we placed in the insulated takeout bag that he provided. Overall, this was a tasty and elevated dim sum experience! read more

Pleasant, clean and beautiful ambiance tucked in southcenter mall with helpful staffs from reception to the wait staff. Had a short wait time or you can opt to sit at the bar. Food was very good. My favorite is a dish I don't see in other dim sum places- the rice roll with crispy shrimp and nori. Beautiful and delicate dish. The other standard dim sum dishes were good too. My favorite was the chive shrimp dumpling. The stuffed eggplant was tasty too. The bean curd roll was a little heavy on the sauce but it was tasty if you remove the excess sauce. Finally we wanted to balance protein with greens- the stir fried pea vine with extra garlic was satisfying. I also very much appreciate they have refrigerated vinegar for our dishes. Looking forward to be back! read more

For satisfying a dim sum craving, this place didn't disappoint. Wasn't too busy when my son and I stopped in. Food tasted fresh and service sizes were hearty. Enjoyed their iced coffee. Love the to go packaging and bag. I know, weird thing to comment on, but it was so cute and different. This place is inside the mall near one of the entrances, but I wouldn't let that deter you. Service was attentive and friendly. Parking: Large mall parking lot. read more

Wouldn't come back. I dined here for a late lunch in the middle of the work week with a friend. It was pretty slow and empty so when we ordered we received our food quickly. I had the opportunity to explore Mr. dim sum vegan menu and it was ultimately underwhelming. The vegan dumplings I ordered tasted really bad. The dough had an aftertaste that was similar to something chemical like. The filling was OK but I couldn't get past that chemical taste. The rice dish with bean sprouts that I ordered, I can't remember the name, came with hair in it. Luckily they were able to send it back and give me a new one. My friend felt pretty eh about her meal as well. Great service though. The staff are amazing. Welcoming, friendly and kind. Server didn't give us a hard time about returning the food. Very sweet of her. read more

Pleasantly surprised! Prices are higher than average, even for the Seattle area. But the portions are large and the flavor is good. I had low expectations for a place in a shopping mall. Reviews when they first opened weren't great. But that might be expected for a new place. But I came away pretty impressed, maybe because I was expecting the worst. And I went to Eggslut the day before, and they pi$$ed me off. So I was in a bad mood. (don't go to Eggslut). I had the har gow (shrimp dumpling), pork and shrimp shu mai, bean curd roll and beef rice roll. The bean curd roll was $7.25 and the rest of the dishes were $8.25 ea. I didn't want take people with me without knowing the quality, so I that's all I ordered besides the tea. With tax and tip, it was about $38 and I had leftovers. I noticed the bag for the leftovers is nice kind that is insulated, so that's part of what you're paying for, as well as the nicer decor and furnishings. Most negative remarks are in regards to service. For me, servers were friendly and attentive. But I also went right when the opened at 10am on a Sunday. I've a passed by during peak hours and just after the lunch rush and it looks kind of hectic. My suggestion is go early, beat the crowds and you'll enjoy the experience. I'm happy to add this place to my list of faves. It's conveniently located and I'll be back to try more dishes and give takeout a try. read more

I've been to Mr. Dim Sum quite a few times now, and each experience has been great! Located in Southcenter mall across from Gen BBQ, this place is a convenient spot for delicious dim sum. I often come here with my family after some quick shopping, and each experience has been positive. Staff are always kind, friendly, and helpful, and they're very attentive to things such as filling up waters or checking in on us. Regarding the food, I'd say the price of each dim sum dish is fairly reasonable especially compared to other spots in the Seattle area. One thing that certainly stands out however is the size of the items, I feel like each dim sum item is large and stuffed with delicious fillings, making it much more worth the price point. One of my personal favorite items is the house special BBQ Pork Bungs. The buns have a delicious bbq pork filling, and the crumb topping adds a subtle sweetness and change in texture. You really can't go wrong with the other traditional dim sum items as well -- I love their har gow and siu mai! read more

The wait!!!! then we ended up sit at the table that was empty the whole 20+ min we were sitting to wait for a table ....but the location! The conventionality of being in the mall waiting is not so bad ...just pondering the thought process behind an empty table while customer waits ... The food The atmosphere nice, clean, and upscale interior with a dimsum exp I somehow still miss my wait the cart to arrive so I can decide what to eat exp Will I come back?

I decided to go to Mr. Dim Sum for a weeknight dinner. There was no wait, which was great. The restaurant was pretty busy, but it's not particularly loud so it's very good for conversations. What is interesting about Mr. Dim Sum is that the size of the dim sum itself is much larger than expected. In other dim sum restaurants I've been to, most of the dumplings I see are generally small. These ones here are huge and packed with flavor. If this is your first time here, I'd recommend ordering in waves just because you might be surprised by the portion sizes here. The food came out generally pretty quickly, and overall I liked the food. Parking is very easy since it's in the Southcenter mall, so there are always spots available, though they may not be super close to the restaurant. The staff was friendly too! While this was not the best dim sum I've had, it was solid and definitely will satisfy your craving for dim sum. read more

3.5/5 would be the most accurate rating. Located at the exterior of the mall, parking is convenient and getting to the restaurant itself is very easy. The inside is pretty modern and spacious. My friend and I came on a Sunday morning (11:30) and were seated immediately. You order by marking dishes you want on their paper menu. I like their digital menu so you can see pictures too. We ordered the bean curd rolls, radish cake, pan fried meat and veg buns, steamed tripe, egg tarts, pea vines, and the house bbq pork buns. Stand out for me were the bean curd rolls and pea vines. The rolls are extremely thick and saucy. And the bean curd itself was thin and soft. Super yum. The pea vines were savory and garlicky. Hard to mess up. Radish cake, bbq pork buns, steamed tripe, and the pan fried meat and veg buns were not bad! Just average to me. Radish cake could've been a little crispier, steamed tripe could've been a bit more tender, the buns could've been juicier. I was fully disappointed by the egg tarts :c the tart part is nice and flaky, the egg custard is silky smooth, but there's a weird aftertaste to the filling that's very unpleasant. Overall, some goods some not so goods. Service was pretty fast and attentive. Price is quite high though. Don't think anything was worth the money. read more

Birthday lunch at Mr. Dim Sum! I went in with high hopes and left with a very full, albeit slightly underwhelmed, stomach. The food is perfectly "alright"--nothing was a miss, but nothing quite reached "damn, this is good" territory. Between the Salt & Pepper Pork Chop, Sho Mai, Shanghai dumplings, Hot & Sour Soup everything was technically sound, though my heart might still belong to DTF. The unrivaled star of the show was the Frosted Mango with Coconut Milk drink--creamy, fresh, and a 10/10. If you're in the area, it's worth a visit for the drink alone and a server who values your time as much as their word count! read more

New Dim Sum Restaurant alert!! As a dim sum lover, I was thrilled to hear a new restaurant opened. This is located at Southcenter Mall next to Gen and Marugame Udon! First impressions: Ambiance, Service, and Food (4.5/5) My dad and I visited on a Sunday around 12:30pm, we came in right before the rush and got seated within 10 minutes. There was plenty of seating and a large TV playing Sunday sports. Food was good and consistent. I wouldn't say it's outstanding, but it's nice to have a dim sum place outside of International District! I would rank this a tiny bit higher if you're a fan of tripe! I will be coming back! read more

Not bad at all. It feels more Americanized, but a lot of the items are quite good. I got a lychee mojito and loved it. The feet were large and meaty, and the flavor was excellent. As for the rice rolls on the bottom, they were okay. The radish cakes also had a great texture and I liked the sauce as well. These clearly used more radish and less flour, which led to a lighter, more agreeable taste. Tripe - Juicy and well-balanced umami. Fried....wonton....thing? - Good texture and flavor. Green beans - Not bad. Ribs - Standard flavor. Quite good. Noodles - Eeehh, we felt that this used too much onion and not enough bean sprouts or other ingredients. Overall, seems a bit cloying. This one definitely requires the chili sauce to enjoy. read more

A stellar experience. Reception was exceptionally friendly and we were seated quicker than the estimate. Space is clean and spacious, with interesting retro images of Guangdong (as this is Guangdong style). Large dimsum list handily divided up by category, i.e. rice rolls, steamed, etc. And a healthy list of dessert items which is rare in a dimsum place, I find. Tried the "purple potato" balls and holy taro sweetness, Batman. (well it's purple). Delicious sweet filled goodness (and hot! watch out!). Quality restaurant and food. read more

Mr Dim sum is a good addition for dim sum options south of Seattle. There is a bunch of parking since it is located in Southcenter mall. They offer a lot of decent food options espcially if you don't want to travel farther into Seattle. I won't cover everything but there is a good amount of things I tried. There aren't carts so if you're looking for that I would say you'd need to go somewhere else. You do need more than 1/2 of your party to be seated so keep that in mind. Staff: Very nice and attentive (5/5) Sanitation status: Clean (5/5) XO Stir Fried Rice Roll & Radish Cake (5/5) The flavor was so good in these rice rolls. They had a little bit of a crisp on the outside from being stir fried and together with the green onion and onions made for a refreshing bite packed full of flavor. The radish cake wasn't as crsipy as I've had at other places but the flavor overall was there and I would order it again. Sui Mai (4/5) The Sui mai was good but nothing too special. The meat tasted like it was relatively fresh and there were bigger pieces of shrimp which I enjoyed. Pan Fried Shrimp and Chive Dumpling (4/5) The shrimp and chive dumplings were good here. Full of shrimp and chives that haven't been minced up which is important. Overall pretty solid if you like chives. Sticky Rice (4/5) The sticky rice was good, a bigger size. It had pork meat as well as chinese sausage inside. I typically like my sticky rice to have more sauce to the meat but it was still decent, nothing mind blowing but if you're looking for it then it'll do the job. Crispy Rice Shrimp Roll (5/5) This was definitely one of the more interesting options we tried here but I absolutely loved it. It had shrimp that was wrapped in crispy rice and the rice roll on the outside was infused with what tasted like matcha. Overall it made for a very cohesive bit in terms of having crispy but chewy and soft textures. read more

Mr. Dim sum, what can I say? Out of desperation, I relented. Service was less than stellar. They said the wait would be about 10-15 min. It was 23 minute in actuality. It was convenient to get a text. It was so late, I thought for sure it wouldnt be so bad. After we got seated at about 740, we didn't get our waters till 805. Crazy, right? We ordered and it took a while for the food as well. The food was just okay. I thought the portions were small and thought the chicken chow mein was different than what it was - which was just regular hk chow mein but with bits of chicken. The place is nicely decorated and simple. read more

I've tried just about every dim sum establishment in Seattle and the suburbs. I was truly impressed by the quality and taste of everything we ordered. Every dim sum item came out from the kitchen piping hot. The only downside is it's a little pricey and a lot more than I've ever paid for dim sum. Some of the dishes aren't dim sum size, and you don't have a choice but to order regular size. Although I really enjoy going to dim sum a lot, I'll save this place for special occasions. Not everyone can afford paying $13 for a small plate of bok choy. read more

Located inside southcenter mall but with its entrance right next to the mall entrance. Plenty of parking but expect to park a bit further if you come during a busy day. Inside, there's a ton of seating as well as a bar so you have different options for seating. The staff were very friendly and always made sure to check in on us. With that, they were also very quick with getting all our food out to us with the exception of two dishes where they ended up remembering at the end and we asked them to just give it to us as takeout because we wanted to try it. First and foremost; definitely be aware that these portions are a lot bigger than your traditional dim sum so if you were a party of 4 like ourselves, I would stick to ordering one of everything you want and not ordering two orders. My favorites of all the dishes we ordered were honestly the vegetables. Each dish was very flavor and didn't feel the slightest bit bland. They complemented any of the other orders we ate. Aside from the vegetables, my favorites would have to be Deep Fried Shrimp Balls and Deep Fried Shrimp Dumplings. They were fried to perfection and the shrimp on the inside had a nice bite to it. read more

Overall this wasn't bad. The food was fine, fast, and the staff were attentive and nice. Seating was as you would expect and we lucked out getting a table, by the time we left it was packed. Compared to other competitors and certainly some of the local mom and pop dim sum places it could have been better and it's certainly way more pricey than others, in fact it's up there with Din Tai Fung but not in flavor or seasoning. read more

Honestly I was very pleasantly surprised. It wasn't overpriced, the service was good, and everything was tasty. All this despite being inside a mall so I was a little hesitant but it was so good I'd drive all the way down here again for it. They have multiple vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, and more options for many diets. For ambiance, it was modern and chic but pretty bustling inside the restaurant as expected. We were estimated a 15-30 min wait and I got a text our table was ready in 10 minutes or less with how quick they were turning over tables. There's couples, families, friends, you name it all coming here for dim sum. Maybe avoid peak hours if you're not wanting it to be so busy - perhaps 1:30/2 or maybe earlier in the morning? Great experience! read more

Good service. Had to be added to the yelp waitlist. Quickly served. Ordered the shrimp dumpling, pork and shrimp dumpling and beef meatball.

Really delicious dim sum! My son and I had an end of first semester (of High School) celebration lunch here and loved this spot. Every dish was well seasoned and prepared and prices seemed moderate for the area. It is a large, clean, attractive interior with easy parking as it's in a well established mall. The dishes are not delivered and ordered on carts, but are cooked to order and portions are generous. Our server Giselle was attentive and lovely. Definitely going to return! P.S.

After being on a train and subjected to American food for 6 meals (no offense), I needed some motherland food: cue in Mr. Dim Sum. This restaurant looks a lot smaller from the outside, but is very modern and close to where I was staying (quite near the south center mall). My parents and myself went to Mr. dim sum on a weekend, so it was a little busy, but the wait was only about 15 minutes, which was nice. The staff was on the younger end, but was still very accommodating and efficient (though they did forget a dish of my mom's, but no harm no foul they apologized). As Post Malone played in the background, we feast it on a plethora of items: pan, fried turnip cake (these were the *cue drake* best I ever had; light and turnip-y, chicken feet (missing the black bean taste, more anise flavor), har gao (huge but also delicious), vegetable fried rice (hard pass for the amount, price, and taste; no wok hey!), shrimp look funn (oh man, cue drake again!), Chinese broccoli (standard), salt and pepper calamari (nicely breaded but skimpy amount), pork hash (also huge and standard). Did we over eat? Yes. Were we happy with what we ate? Mostly. Would we go back? Yes. Well, it (cue drake for the third time) The best I ever had, but it was pretty dang good. There were particular dishes I would go specifically back for, while passing on some others. Given the proximity of convenience and wait time in addition to waitstaff, cleanliness, they're a pretty good choice for dim sum. Expect to pay a little more than the standard fare, though. read more
