One of the best dimsum spots in the valley. No frills atmosphere, customers here are more local since it's off the strip. We enjoyed the scallop dumplings the most and prices were reasonable compared to other restaurants with better quality items. read more

3/5 overall for food. Solid dim sum for a few standout dishes, but my search for the best dim sum spot in Sin City continues. I was excited to finally try Rainbow Kitchen during my parents' visit this past week after saving this spot for quite some time. Reading about their m 40+ years specialized in the Cantonese cuisine, especially their emphasis on made-to-order dim sum, raised my expectations. First, I am genuinely glad to see them doing well after taking over the restaurant in 2020. The restaurant was packed when we arrived around 12:30pm on Tuesday, June 23, which is always encouraging to see. There are a few live seafood tanks as expected for this style of Cantonese restaurant. Prices run slightly higher than some dim sum spots, but nothing unreasonable. The standouts were excellent. The Steamed Shrimp & Chive Dumplings had thin wrappers with just enough dough to hold everything together while allowing the freshness and flavor of the filling to shine. The Baked Pineapple Lava Bun was one of the best I have had in quite a while. Too often these buns are mostly bread with very little filling, but these had a generous amount of salted egg yolk lava filling. The Soy Sauce Pan Fried Noodles may sound simple, but many restaurants butcher this dish. Rainbow Kitchen executed it well. These three items alone are worth ordering again and are easy recommendations. Most of the other dishes we tried were perfectly acceptable but nothing particularly memorable. They were fine, though not items we would reorder. Our biggest disappointment was actually the one item we ordered from the regular menu: Salted Fish Fried Rice. As lovers of traditional Cantonese salted fish fried rice, we were genuinely excited to see it on the menu. The first order arrived incorrectly with only chicken. We specifically requested only salted fish, no chicken, because we're OG like that. When the dish was remade, there were barely any pieces of salted fish (look at my clip), and both the aroma and signature salty flavor were missing. We could neither smell nor taste the salted fish. Unfortunately, we sent it back and asked for it to be removed from our bill. The staff handled the situation professionally and patiently, which we appreciated. One note for future diners: the printed menu hours inside the restaurant differed from the Yelp listing, so it is worth calling ahead to confirm. The good news is that they are open seven days a week. Overall, Rainbow Kitchen is a solid made-to-order dim sum spot for a few specific dishes, but across the menu the food landed around a 3/5 for us. My search for the best dim sum in Sin City continues. read more

Went here on a Thursday for lunch and oh my, soo enjoyable. 1pm and we were seated right away. We aimed for only dim sum. You get a dim sum menu that you can mark up the quantity you want and they will bring it out. Their original dim sum items were a hit with us. Har gow - must x2 Shrimp rice paper in sauce - amazing. Shu Mai - yes! Fried Fish fillet in salt and pepper - a must Spareribs - so flavorful We tried a few others and it was not that good. Bbq crispy pork - it was quite chewy and skin was not crispy. Green beans - were a bit overcooked Fried har gow - doughy. Great service and very attentive workers. They offered us a lobster for $30 as we ordered over $30 of food. We had too much food to take them on this offer but if we come back, this is a must. Clean restaurant and plenty of parking in the front and side. read more

I've been coming to Rainbow Kitchen for years, and I can't believe I'm only now getting around to writing a review. If you're looking for authentic Chinese food, this is one of my favorite spots. They consistently offer fresh seafood, including live fish, lobster, and crab. Our go-to order always includes: * Dungeness crab with ginger and scallions -- incredibly fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. * Salt and pepper calamari -- crispy, well-seasoned, and absolutely delicious. * Ong choy with garlic -- fresh, simple, and packed with flavor. We usually pair our meal with a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc. The owner is a true wine enthusiast and always has an excellent selection at very reasonable prices, without the typical restaurant markup. The best part? They allow BYOB with no corkage fee, which is a rare and much-appreciated bonus. Rainbow Kitchen has been a longtime favorite of ours, and we always leave happy. Highly recommended! read more

I'm saddened with my order today. I really like Rainbow Kitchen I have never been disappointed with their food ever until today. The Salt n Pepper Pork Chops were cooked to death like a jerky it was bland no salt n pepper whatsoever and super thin and hard to eat. The salted fish n chicken fried rice just as bland even with the salted fish added almost as if they were stingy with the salted fish. I give them 1 Star today for the disappoint. Everyone has their days and maybe today whoever cooked my food was having theirs. I will absolutely give them another chance but if it does happen again like today, I will not be back. (I've been ordering from there over 5years now) read more

Ordered food for takeout and it was still piping hot when I got home 30 minutes later. Service was fast as we called the order in when we were on our way already. Great touch separating the sauce from the noodles. Extremely flavorful sauce too, by the way. The kung pao chicken was also perfectly portioned. I first thought $40 for this entire meal was a bit steep, but the portions and flavor definitely made up for it (the rice was a nice touch too). The inside was very clean and I definitely would dine here again. read more

This place has been on my list to try for quite a while. Finally made it in. It's 2pm and 103 degrees and I want soup! Hot n Sour soup. Since my previous favorite place closed, it's been difficult to find it without meat or seafood. I usually ask for it extra spicy but I saw chili oil and white pepper on the table, so I opted not to ask. Good thing I didn't! It's perfectly hot the way it is. It's think the way it should be with beautiful ribbons of egg. I didn't care for their choice of mushroom, easy enough to avoid. Instead of tofu, they use wheat noodles which was a nice change. It comes in a huge bowl, so I will have plenty to take home. The server was kind and ladled into a smaller bowl for me. There are about 15 tables, ranging from a table for two to rounds for 8. On this particular day, every patron was Chinese! That's when you know it's authentic. I didn't care not know they serve dim sum, so I will be back for that. read more

We arrived at 10:50 and there was a line out the door being an avid dim sum aficionado and eating it every Sunday for the last 30+ years throughout the world has really elevated my taste. One thing I like besides the incredible service is the quality of the food. The products they use and that this is actually one of the healthiest dim sum I've ever eaten with less added fats, salts, or MSG. If you love dim sum like I do and your health conscience and worry about fitness and what you're putting into your body this is the place you definitely have to go to read more

Love coming here for dim sum lunch. It's close to my house and big restaurant for a lot of people too. We waited only about 10 min for the 2 of us to get seated. We ordered tangerine beef rice rolls, eggplant stuffed with shrimp paste, and salt n pepper fish. We also ordered oolong tea as well. Tea is $1.88 a person. Everything came out hot and fresh. The eggplant portion was really big and perfect to share. They cut them in halves. The salt n pepper fish had lot of fried garlic, green onion, and jalapenos for flavor. I like how the batter wasn't too thick and oily as well. The tangerine beef rice rolls didn't have too much tangerine flavor as before but still delicious. They have a lot of items on their menu worth trying. They have duck, seafood, noodles, and some dessert dim sum to try as well. Looking forward to coming back to try more items with more people. read more

I called in an order and they were pretty quick. 10 mins for Mongolian beef and salt and pepper tofu. The Mongolian Beef was delicious. I loved the onions and green onions that gave it great flavors. The salt and pepper tofu didn't have too much flavor that I mixed it with the Mongolian Beef. They gave me plenty of rice. I'll have to come back and try their other items. read more

Busy restaurant for a great dim sum! Went Sunday and this place was packed! Been before for dim sum and definitely this one hits the spot! Pro tip, if you want their baked BBQ BUNS, get there early. By 12:30, there were none left to purchase. They are super delish, and was disappointed we didn't get them. For the yummies we did get, Yass, everything was super, hot and served fast! Would recommend this place, but there could be a wait for tables, esp if you have big a big groups. This is a checklist style of dimsum, no carts. I leave my order in the photos, to give a guide line. Pretty standard order, nothing too strange. Standouts are the eggplant stuffed with shrimp and the taro puffs. read more

The Peking duck was an absolutely unforgettable experience from start to finish. The presentation alone was impressive--crispy golden skin carved tableside with precision, followed by tender, juicy slices of duck that practically melted in every bite. The highlight was the contrast in textures: the skin was perfectly crisp and rich, while the meat stayed incredibly soft and flavorful. Each piece was wrapped in warm pancakes with fresh cucumber, scallions, and a delicate hoisin sauce that balanced everything beautifully without overpowering the duck. read more

This restaurant should get more spotlight on it's authentic and great quality dim sum! Forget about the "wannabe" so called dim sum places on the strip. Really people come here for the dim sum fixes. Also. I'm calling out those AYCE dim sum and Chinese place for feeding us frozen/leftover like dim sums. You have nothing compare to this restaurant! To be honest, I'm surprised about the good quality and how much they stick to the traditional flavors. All the items we ordered are pretty tasty. If it needs to be crunchy, it's crunchy. If it needs to have lava-like salty egg yolk inside the bun, it has exactly what you are expecting! The service is awesome too. They check on the pot often and refill it. They even charge plates once. Wow! I never experienced this level of service unless it's a very nice Chinese restaurant. This restaurant deserves better and more reviews. My friends and I are looking forward to come back. read more

Rainbow Kitchen is now my go-to spot for dim sum and dumplings in SW Las Vegas! Nestled in a strip mall on Rainbow Blvd, this casual Cantonese restaurant serves truly fresh, made-to-order dim sum with no carts, just impeccable quality. Highlights include crispy dumplings pear shape (but tbh I call them DUCKLINGS lol) and the porridge. They serve it for you and you just eat. The portions are generous and bursting with flavor. The restaurant is spotlessly clean, with friendly, attentive staff (I love how they employ older gen staff and they are all SUPER NICE), a refreshing change from the chaos of Chinatown. I'm now a regular! read more

This is officially my new go-to dim sum spot in Vegas. The restaurant itself is tiny and very basic, so don't come expecting a fancy dining room. But if you're here for the food, it's absolutely worth it. So far, this is the best tasting, best-made dim sum I've had in Las Vegas. The classic dim sum dishes really shine. The har gow (shrimp dumplings) and shrimp rice rolls are the best I've had in Vegas--perfect wrappers, fresh shrimp, and great flavor. The siu mai, chicken feet, and steamed spare ribs were all delicious too. The only misses for me were the crispy pork, which was very dry, and the deep-fried har gow, which had way too much batter and overwhelmed the filling. Overall, the quality of the traditional dim sum is excellent, and I'll definitely be coming back regularly. If you're looking for authentic, well-executed dim sum in Vegas, this place deserves a visit. read more

I have been craving for Chinese food. I saw this on TikTok and it looks good. We went to check it out. It wasn't busy when we got there so we got seated right away. The service was okay. The food was okay. We ordered a lot to tryout including my takeout shrimp with scrambled eggs. read more

Authentic Chinese food in the new Chinatown (south Rainbow). I think I saw a John Curtis review of the dim sum so decided to try it. Three non-Asian guys walking in for lunch got the manager's attention. He was very nice and seemed a bit surprised that we were not novice dim sum guys (we had to ask for chopsticks) but when I tapped my knuckles to thank him for the tea... he gave me a knowing nod and then explained the history behind the gesture (I knew the tradition, but not how it came about). The restaurant is too tight for carts which means if you don't know what items are, you don't get to see them first. But it also means all the dim sum comes out hot and fresh, no lukewarm shu mai! They've got the fresh fish tanks, big round tables with lazy Susan's, primarily Chinese clientele, and delicious dim sum. We may not be experts, but we could tell we were not the only ones that thought the food was excellent. We'll definitely be back. Xie xie! read more

This is always a nice spot to have dim sum. There's a great variety and the dishes come out hot. They are good at checking in on you to remove empty dishes and refill the water and tea. There are a lot of tables and it does get crowded, but that's the sign of a good Chinese place. read more

Authentic Chinese. Service fast. Limited English speaking staff. Kinda noisy typical of Asian restaurants. Overall you come for the food!

The first time the two of us went to rainbow kitchen, I was quite impressed. The food ingredients were fresh. First of all, the spareribs with taro are highly recommended. They tasted great and the taro was very soft. The shrimp was springy with the rice roll . The lava salted egg yolk buns were also quite good. After finishing one, I ordered another. The stir-fried Chinese cabbage with garlic was also very well made. Let me talk about some not-so-good ones The taste of the honeycomb tripe w/ satay sauce was not up to standard and was a bit bland. The porridge was actually okay. If the rice could be cooked a little softer. The crispy shrimp dumplings were a bit oily. Also, the freshly baked roast duck didn't have the crispy texture and was a bit lacking in flavor. The food in this restaurant has a relatively low salt content for me. If there were a little more salt, it might be even more delicious. The service was also very good. They often came over to check if there was any tea or water, and even offered to change the plates for us. But what was not so good was that when they saw you had nothing to eat, they would quickly come over to ask if you wanted to pay the bill. It feels like I'm about to leave after eating, and that made me uncomfortable . Their tips are calculated after tax, starting from 18%. I don't mind giving them 18% because the service is quite good. But I do mind giving them 18% after tax. Although it's a difference of a few dollars, this is a matter of principle. There's no reason for you to ask us consumers to pay the tax for your tips. Later, I gave them 18% before tax. But overall, compared with the Chinese food I've been to, it's still okay. So I give them four stars read more

I was looking for a good place for Chinese food. I went to the Rainbow Kitchen on S Rainbow for a try. The food was not good. I had steak and black pepper. The steak used was a very bad cut as it had too much fat and gristle for me. The biggest problem was with the price. Upon paying for the food, I noticed that they had add $4 to every entre I ordered, $ entrees = $16 total. Save your money and don't go here. read more

Ok came back to give it another try..definitely redeemed......Reserved a table for 7 for family birthday dinner and it was perfect. All food served family style. Ordered Honey Walnut Shrimp Orange Chicken Dim sum BBQ pork bun Dim sum Lobster Salt and Pepper Lobster Sweet Corn with Chicken Soup Mongolian Beef Singaporean Noodles Glass Noodles with BBQ pork Scallops We tried it all. The service was amazing our server was attentive with refills, clearing plates and even helped serve my boyfriends cake. The food was fresh and Dim sum was very good. We live in the area and had been there prior and our family lived close and agreed we found a hidden gem. The salt and pepper lobster was 3ilbs and cooked amazing! Will come back and try the other flavors. The hot tea is a great addition. If you want a traditional delicious Chinese restaurant in your local area this is the place! Fresh food and great service! read more

Rainbow Kitchen is one of our go to spots for Chinese food nearby home. Our absolute favorites are the salt and pepper pork chop and the squid. They are always crispy, flavorful, and cooked just right every time. We usually call ahead and they are very accommodating which makes ordering very easy and convenient for our family. The portions are generous and the food always comes out hot and fresh. Another big plus is the pricing. It is very affordable compared to other Chinese restaurants especially for the quality and portion sizes you get. I always tell friends to check our receipt so they can order the same dishes because it is truly my go to menu all the time for me and my family. Highly recommend. read more

There are very few restaurants where I am a 'regular' because we don't eat out enough, but this is one of them. There was a time where I think our group of 6-8 came here almost every Sunday for a month, lol. Chinatown dim sum, who's that? For those of us who don't want to do the trek, this is a haven. And imo, Rainbow Kitchen is just as good as places in Chinatown, but without the wait or parking nightmares. Everytime we've gone at 11am when they open, we've never had to wait for a table. Their portions are pretty good for the price and the meticulousness of their dishes is really what stands out. They have some dishes that my Cantonese mother-in-law says other places just won't make or serve because it's too much work. Less salty and more fresh than other places. The people who work here are also just super friendly too and dare I say actually provide good service? I think they started recognizing us at some point because of my friend's baby, so they were always super welcoming to our group. This is definitely a staple FOR DIM SUM whenever I have out-of-town guests and no one has ever been let down! (I have to specify dim sum because we've come for dinner and it's just okay) read more

Not a bad option for Chinese takeout in Southwest Vegas. They do a solid Crispy Roasted Pork and good HK Style Pan-Fried Noodles! Their Sweet & Sour Chicken, however, is a miss. The chicken can be soggy on the outside and tough on the inside, and the sauce is too tart and runny, which contributes to the soggy issue. I prefer New York Chinese Restaurant's Sweet & Sour, for comparison's sake. Don't appreciate that they charge a buck or two more for each item than advertised. Might be back to try out their dim sum about which everyone seems to rave. read more

Hi everyone, I'd to share some though about this place. I had came by two days ago and had a take out to try some of the items I saw on Yelp and it looked good. Took home Hug Gao, Shu Mai, Beef chow fun and 1/2 Roasted duck. Loved it... Shu Mai was good, Hug Gao was great and Duck was tasty, I liked it different than Asian BBQ noodle on Jones which is the Best Roasted Duck for us here in vegas. Took my my back to dine in today, Order Shrimp egg roll, Steamed beef noodle, Hug GAO, Shu Mai, Pork spareribs/Taro, Fried salted stuffed buns and Tried their Peking Duck which was $50, about $10 more than the regular roasted duck would cost. Everything else was ok as expected except the Peking Duck... I was expected the Skin only cut off to serve but it came out sliced with meat attached, even I mentioned and shown the yelp picture to her of what style we wanted but still came out that way. Overall it was alright. Beef noodles, Hug Gao and Shu Mai is recommended for this place. Regular Roasted duck is ok too if you don't feel like driving to Asian BBQ noodle ( Tung Ky ) on Jones/Spring Mountain. For me this place has the Best Hug Gao! in town by far. Oh, The Interior dining area is typically Chinese restaurant standard, and the service was average ;) read more

This place has one of the best dimsum menu in Las Vegas! Everything is fresh cooked and steaming hot! They don't skimp on portions and filling.

Overall the meal was decent, but I prefer other dim sums and Peking ducks in the area. Eggplant with shrimp paste - the eggplant and shrimp was cooked right, but the sauce was a little bland (and the pieces are extremely large for dim sum portions) Beef pan fried noodles - pretty solid beef pan fried noodles Peking duck - weird that they give you the bones. It makes it hard to make pancake rolls. I'm not a fan of getting my hands dirty and then going back and forth using utensils (requires a lot of napkin cleaning) Shrimp noodle rolls - good quality, but I like my sauce a little sweeter for this Shrimp and chicken siu mai - I prefer pork and shrimp Lobster noodles - lobster was soft and tender Ha gow - one of the better items Shrimp and crab dumpling - enjoyable, but couldn't really distinguish it from the ha gow-- couldn't really taste the crab Pan fried chive dumpling - wasn't too crispy Spare ribs - tasty and lots of pieces for a dim sum dish read more

Excellent Chinese food! You know it's authentic & good Chinese food as there are a lot of Chinese people eating here. Came during dimsum time 11-3 daily, cheaper prices, very good seafood tofu soup, vegetable fried rice not greasy, snow peas leaves steamed to perfection & dimsum chicken feet, roasted pig & steamed shrimp with chives are all very good!

The food was good and so was service but I felt like I got ripped off. I looked online on their website to check the menu and prices. I didnt expect to pay more than $45/$50 , my bill was $62!? I ordered 3 dishes , salt pepper pork chop $15.99, shrimp fry rice $14.99, half order,cold ginger chicken $17.99 $48..So I call the restaurant to ask why I was charged more then what i saw on their website,the answer I got was "the owner did not change or update the online price ever,the online price is old" but the website looks new make that make sense ..I was told I can pick-up a copy of my receipt..False advertising at its finest ! read more

Came here today, Sunday for lunch for parking, there's plenty of parking spot outside the plaza.

From ordering our food to the delivery to our table, everything was cooked fresh. Everything tasted so good.
