Wanted to try a different dim sum spot, but this place was okay... The quality and price point do not align! New Port does offer a variety of dishes and the interior design of the restaurant is very nice, but the experience does not warrant another visit. I just wasn't impressed and if I wanted this quality of dim sum, I rather support smaller Chinese bakeries that sell dim sum for a cheaper price point. Like the food wasn't bad, but I would rather go to Koi Palace if I'm going to spend a similar amount of $$$. One thing I did like a lot was the fried squid. I have never seen it fried that way before. It looked doughy on the outside because of the puff, but the batter wasn't thick. I liked the soft crisp and the squid was tender, not chewy at all!

My current favorite place for dim sum. EVERYTHING was good and cooked to order. I went on the weekend around 11a and it was not crowded. Ny the time i left the dining area was full of people and the parking lot was full also. I would suggest getting there 11 or earlier.

Dim sum to go

Maybe I had given an extra courtesy star during COVID, or maybe it's gone downhill since. Probably both. Anyway, there are no reservations so we waited over 45 minutes for a table during lunch, then got seated in the corner where we were mostly ignored. Service was slow and we had to constantly ask for things. The dim sum was "ok". The shrimp in the dumpings fell out of their wrapper when we tried to pick them up with chopsticks. Dim sum mostly was order on the menu with some ladies walking around with miscellaneous trays. Super crowded, so I doubt my updated review will dissuade anyone, but we personally won't be back.

Coming from the "city of dim sum" in LA, I found the dim sum here to be decent and satisfying overall. We visited on a weekday, so there was no wait, which made for a relaxed dining experience. Ordering is done through a paper menu, and the dishes are brought directly to your table. One thing we noticed right away is that the portions here are noticeably larger than what we're used to. We tried many items such as the bean curd rolls, shrimp dumplings, siu mai, and fried taro. The fried taro in particular had a huge filling of mashed taro inside. That said, as the saying goes, bigger doesn't always mean better! Our family, who lives in the area, brought us here more for the chance to spend time together, which made the meal enjoyable in its own way.

Came here for lunch on a week day with my nieces and nephews, and it was a great experience. The service was attentive, and the food came out quickly, hot, and fresh. The Peking duck with bao buns was a great value at $50 for a whole duck and tasted delicious. My favorite dish was the shrimp paste with crab claws--it was perfectly balanced, juicy, flavorful, and crispy. Overall, everything we ordered was good. The only dish that was just okay was the char siu. My niece actually wanted the roasted pork but accidentally ordered the char siu instead. It wasn't bad, just not as memorable as the rest of the meal. The staff was friendly and responsive. We were able to wave down our waiter whenever we needed water refills or to-go containers, and they were quick to help. Overall, this is a solid spot that delivers on both food and service. I'd definitely come back.

I'm a regular here with my family, and they have consistently good food! Highly recommend the 2 course peking duck (with first course as buns and and second as mushu lettuce wraps), the fried egg tofu with pea shoots, the chicken corn soup, and the crispy noodles with vegetables! Service is as you'd expect from a Chinese restaurant. It's easier if you come here with someone who speaks Chinese. Ambiance : Decently classy if not just a bit tacky. Their dimsum is not bad either!

Took my mom here to celebrate Mother's day and we loved it. Since it was a Sunday and a holiday, the restaurant was packed. It took about 40 minutes to get seated for a party of 3, but we expected the long wait. They only call parties from inside, so do not wait outside. The food was good and the price was okay for a sit down dim-sum (~$7.50 per medium plate). Highlights were the fried taro, peking duck and crispy shrimp ball.

Overall a good place to get dim sum in the area. The price is about right for the area. Portions can be generous for some dishes. One of the dumplings were huge! We came on a weekday to try and avoid the weekend wait times. There was no wait on a Monday at lunch and we were seated immediately. Ordering is easy, you mark what you want off a checklist. No carts here. The biggest con was that our server was literally standing at our table staring at us the whole time we were trying to figure out what to order. And a few more times through out our meal while we were eating. It made us feel really rushed and it was pretty awkward. The dim sum isnt the best I've ever had but decent for the area and price. Maybe we'll come back on a weekend when they're a little more busy to avoid the awkward stare down moments.

Super fresh steamed fish! Pineapple buns available only on Saturday and Sunday. Great service very attentive! Cool blue chandelier!

I'm honestly not sure why New Port is rated less than 4 stars, but the food is fantastic. Coming from Boston where Dim Sum shops are abundant, I would actually rank New Port up there. The prices are slightly on the higher end, but I like that their bean curd pork rolls (腐皮卷) had veggies in them. Authentic? Not sure, but delicious? Absolutely. My go to dishes here would be the pan fried chive dumpling, the bean curd pork rolls, and the fried shrimp balls (but nothing I had here so far was a miss... except the spareribs, but that's because I wasn't expecting kabocha in the dish). All in all, a great place to go to (and there's always a line on the weekends so head early!)

Duck Boa
Neeta M.

I remember coming to this place back in 1998 - it has been around for a long time! They have upgraded their interior decor to be more upscale. The servers are nice and polite - be careful when they serve you, some stuff could drop on your clothes. I had my Chinese co workers with me, so they did the ordering for celebrating the Lunar New Year - year of the horse. The food is good - but not stellar. Good to enjoy this place in a big group, so you can try various things. Besides dim sum, they also have a menu for à la carte items.

The pork buns and the dumplings
Tahir N.

The tables and chairs have had a nice refresh since our last visit. When my daughter comes to visit, I generally bring her here as I did in the past when she was younger. There is a charge now for the green tea, but we get Jasmine. I don't recall our exact order, but I will post the pictures. Barbecue pork buns, of course. Some delicious shrimp dumplings. Oddly, we did not get the crab claws on this visit. Next time! PS: For those who participate in the AA dining or other frequent flier dining program, you will receive some points based on your bill.

Pineapple Bun Tart with Sesame filling in Mochi Ball
Jamie Z.

According to my mom, I've been here before. I'm 99% sure it was my first visit. Came here the Sunday before New Years and it was packed, lively and we had a very minimal wait since we arrived before 11AM. Parking: Small parking lot attached, we had 2 cars and found parking right away. Location: Nicely located around surrounding plazas across the streets for shopping, groceries etc. Inside was clean, well lit and nicely decorated. Service: Fast, attentive and honest Food: Made to order and fresh. You can order via marking the order sheet, but they also have staff walking out specialty items. I really liked their steamed pork ribs with ho-fun. They never brought out the chicken feet we ordered - it was busy and they probably ran out so it never made it to our tab. LASTLY on food, they had a unique "Pineapple bun / eggtart-like mochi ball with sesame-filling" that I've never seen before so I HAD to order it. It's like someone's parent found out their kid liked pineapple bun, egg tarts, mochi, and sesame and decided to make a Picasso pastry, haha. A lady staff went over our marked order paper and told me that dish would take at least 30 minutes to prepare and had me confirm that I would not cancel my order due to long wait times. We just sat down and had plenty time, so it was perfect for us. Would come again and try their seafood next time as the Staff mentioned it was their house specialty.

As of this writing (12/30/24) do they serve dim sum on carts? If so, is it for lunch or dinner or both? Thx

I don't think so - even vegetable dishes might have fish sauce for flavoring

They serve dim sum during lunch every day as far as I am aware.

Large quantity which was the only saving grace from this long wait. Food was decently good. We were given tong Sui at the end. I don't think I will return. Waiting 25 minutes for our food was too long.

Parking was fairly easy with tons of parking spots in the plaza and inside the restaurant was a more to-go style spot but there are some seats for you to enjoy your meal. The overall ambience of the spot was quiet and cozy. Service was very quick and they were able to take our orders quickly. I noticed even with more people coming in, they took orders quick and were able to serve them almost instantly. It looks like they take catering as well. My hubby and I got an order of the siu mai ($6.15 for 3 pieces), har gow ($6.15 for 3), BBQ pork bun (~$3 for 1), and the black bean spare beans ($6.15). Prices were fairly decent and the portion sizes were fairly big! The siu mai was a bit sweeter than I normally like, but I liked the size of them. Har gow was fresh (it did come out 5-10 mins after we sat down) and was actually very plump and the skin was easy to eat (most places the skin falls apart). BBQ pork bun was also very good - can't go wrong with a simple bun. Black bean spare-ribs were just OK, definitely could be better as it felt too garlicky and most of it was fat. I am deducting a star mostly due to the food not being as hot. Since we were able to eat right away, we were hoping the food would be fresh/hot but the siu mai and spare-ribs were just very lukewarm. I would most likely come back but bring home our items to microwave and enjoy at home.

Dim sum favorites include their spare ribs, chicken feet, pork football. The best part is that everything is sold by piece so one can mix and match. They also have a good variety of hot entrees including salt and pepper fish, garlic string beans. They have various promotions, including a discount for paying cash. Some staff wear a glove on their hand too.
