Wow!! I'm impressed with the variety and creativity of the dishes here. Disclaimer though: for authentic dim sum, I wouldn't recommend it but if you want a fusion experience, I think it's worth trying. We opted for the free flow brunch, which is $58 per person. The best dishes were definitely the duck lettuce wrap appetizer and the duck fried rice. The duck here is really good. Next time, I will definitely try the Peking duck. I love how they put eyes on the crab dumplings and the Pac-Man dumplings are also sooo cute. But to be honest, the guacamole didn't make sense for me. Color-wise, the presentation was nice but I wouldn't actually eat guacamole with dumplings... The chicken is really salty. I don't recommend this. The curry with the crab dumplings were also salty. I appreciate the service as they packed our leftovers in to-go boxes, which made for a nice second meal. Don't forget about dessert! They don't have a dessert menu so they'll just tell you about it. The chocolate dumpling took some time to make and come out but it was delicious! It has Nutella and banana inside. Usually comes with four pieces but I just wanted a taste so they made me one. We also got key lime pie, which really completed our meal perfectly. If you go their website, you can get a $50 off $100 discount via InKind.
I went here for dinner with friends. When they first opened, getting a reservation was almost impossible, so I was excited. The space is nice, although the ambience felt more Italian than Chinese, and the prices are on the higher side. The service was excellent and my glass was never empty, which made the experience even better. Food highlights: the scallion pancakes were crisp and flavorful, and the beef and broccoli with filet mignon was easily the best bite of the night. The meat was tender and full of flavor, but it mostly just tasted like steak over broccoli and not really any Asian flavor or influence. The hot and sour soup was good, but I've had better for much less. The lollipops weren't a favorite. Overall, if you are looking for traditional Chinese food this isn't the place. While there were some tasty bites and great service, I probably would not come back at these prices.
I've been wanting to check out Red Farm for some time now. But... I just couldn't justify eating Chinese food at the price point it's in. However, after being invited to a friend's birthday dinner in their private room, why not. As expected, the prices are staggering & the portions are small--I nearly choked when I saw the menu. The Peking Duck alone is $105, double the price of Bamboo House's version, and honestly, just as good, maybe even less so. Be careful getting here, as Red Ash (Italian restaurant) is around the corner and may add some confusion. While the dishes we had were tasty (Pork & Crab Soup Dumplings, Gold Coin Scallion Pancakes served Curry, etc), Red Farm is comparable to many other Americanized Asian restaurants in the area who focus on the same attributes--Elevated Chinese food using quality ingredients catering to the American palette. Note: Parking can be a challenge. Only street parking (free, but requires patience), a paid private lot or parking garage (also requires payment) is available.
The service and the ambiance were 5 stars, the food was 4. Pregnancy craving said I needed soup dumplings, even though I don't love Chinese food. So to redfarm we go, and the soup dumplings did not disappoint. Delicious! But also $20, so $5/dumpling, that hurts. The pork fried buns were dry ($17) The pacman dumplings are kinda dumb, not worth the hype at all ($19) The mocktail was very good ($9) The half Peking duck was good ($58) and glad I got to try it once. We were offered a small side of white rice, but could upgrade to fried rice. I did say I don't like it so it will only be for my husband, thinking it would be a SIDE. It was a full $24 bowl of fried rice. I didn't like that move at all, very miscommunicated. Overall the only thing I would get again would be the soup dumplings. I'm being generous with 4 stars and probably wouldn't crave coming back here. Pro-tip: good luck finding parking. They don't validate any.
Great service. Food was good but a bit more Americanized that I would have liked. I got the hot and sour soup, scallion pancakes, lettuce wraps and shumai. Nothing in particular stuck out. Will go back for an another try one day!
My wife and I were pleasantly surprised when we had food and drinks here. This is not your typical Chinese and dim sum restaurant. They had some different twists to dishes such as the Pac Man dumplings. I definitely want to go back to try out more dishes. Also, the space is nice and the service is fantastic!
This place is so delectable and amazing. Make sure you end your meal with the hot chocolate dumplings. They are unlike anything I have ever had before! The Peking duck and the soup dumplings...omg really absolutely everything. The staff was very busy but did their best to be attentive and gave us fabulous recommendations. We actually changed what we were planning to order and were very happy we did!
Price: I am totally willing to pay $$$$ for quality, flavor explosion and culinary uniqueness. It was one of those moments where I was like "meh, ok tastes like every other basic Chinese/dumpling restaurant." (With a smaller price tag) Food: Nothing excited me. I was so upset with dessert... slice of banana + piece of chocolate wrapped in a dumpling (when asked to bring the best thing on the dessert menu) Staff: very friendly, attentive and thoughtful Vibe: warm and cozy, plenty of tables and booths
My first time at RedFarm was life changing! Little dramatic but this was my first time ever trying soup dumplings and I am obsessed! I've been craving them non-stop ever since. It wasn't too crowded on a Thursday night. With a group of 3, we were able to be seated right away without a reservation. The service was very friendly and attentive and the food was so delicious and fresh. The wide rice noodles with BBQ'd duck is a must try. Can't wait to go back!
We came due to an AMEX plat resy credit and wanted to try some fresh takes on dimsum and did the rolling brunch for $58/person. We had a fantastic server (Diar) who didn't hesitate to give us recommendations when we didn't know what to order. Diar was also super attentive without being overbearing - refilling our water frequently, noticing when we were ready for the next round of orders, etc. The dishes were suuuper flavorful -- and if they were more traditional, they actually tasted authentically chinese (as opposed to your american chinese takes). If you're here with a party of 4, would highly recommend going with the rolling all you can eat option because the portions are perfect for sharing. Highly recommend, definitely one of our better Resy finds!
Dropped in for an early dinner and caught the tail end of happy hour (which was good given the pricing of the cocktails). The restaurant has a bar area where you can get a drink if you need to wait for a table. Seating is both within the restaurant and a covered patio area. It looks like the restaurant could accommodate large parties, but would really require advance reservations if you want to do that. According to the website - valet parking is available for $12 (plus tip). The happy hour menu was a welcome reprieve for pricing - both food and drinks. Cocktails were near the $20 mark so $10 happy hour pricing made them much more affordable (if not an indication of the mark up). Several appetizer plates were available as well for reduced pricing which gave us the opportunity to try more things. Our server Taylor was awesome and helped with recommendations and kept our little table full of food and devoid of empty plates. Overall - I would say that the food was pretty good albeit leaning more towards the over salted side. Pricing was rather elevated - which I think is owned in part to their other locales (NY and Miami) - this makes it less of a place I would have on rotation and more of an occasional change of pace restaurant. Here's what we had: Spicy Crispy Beef - Crisp (or at least hard) bits of fried beef tossed in a slightly spicy sauce (a little sweet/spicy) with onions. This was much better when hot - less so as it cooled. BBQ Duck Lettuce Wraps - a mix of dice duck and some veggies with beautiful Bibb lettuce leaves. Served with what appears to be a pico de Gallo and a sauce. We were excited about this dish but it was turned out to be just ok. The duck mix wasn't memorable, the pico was an odd accompaniment, but the sauce added a little more depth to the flavor). We wouldn't order this one again. Mushroom & Vegetable Spring Rolls - a bit of a misnomer since they aren't exactly spring rolls, but are more fried egg rolls. They show up looking like trees on a cucumber base with wild fried limbs. An interesting presentation, but the rolls were a surprise delight for the evening. Easily in our top 3. Chicken and Shrimp Lollipops - two long toothpicks adorned with a golf ball sized ball of shrimp and chicken that had been fried. If you try to bite - they will fall apart (maybe better as a single bite). We liked these. Ma Po Tofu with Chopped pork and shrimp - this was also a very good and also the least salty of the dishes we had. It paired well with a side of rice (but also - getting charged $5 for a bowl of rice??? I mean it's it a staple of Chinese food?) Wide Rice Noodles with BBQ'd Duck - this one had fairly authentic flavors with nice wide rice noodles and tasty duck. This one was universally well liked. Drinks - The Eastside Roku - Roku Gin, Bergamot, Butterfly Pea Blossom, Shiso, Cucumber and Lemon to combine in a flavorfully refreshing purple drink. Kiyushiki Old-Fashioned - Suntory Tiki, Nori, Angostura Bitteres, Ginger and Agave. Makes a pretty decent lightly flavored old-fashioned.
Great ambiance and the servers are always really welcoming. But that only gets so far at a restaurant. The food is really hit or miss and expensive for the sizes. The shrimp triangles are good but only three little triangles for $17, the short rib starter was so fatty and lacking flavor, I didn't finish it. $24 for snow peas without even any protein is steep. However, the key lime pie is some of the best I have ever had.
Honestly this place was super overpriced and underwhelming. We were really excited to try this place since we love dimsum but nothing was especially impressive. Not to mention we also had a server that was quite pushy with trying to get us to order alot more than we wanted. We started with the crispy beef per her recommendation and there were sooo many pieces that were just fried batter. The ones that actually had beef were tasty. We then had the pan fried pork buns which were good. We then had the shrimp shumai which was standard and good. We ended with the applewood bacon fried rice which was probably our favorite and definitely a good portion size too. With places like Ling Wu that are stellar, I'm glad we checked this place off but probably won't be back.

Delicious!!! We had the hot and sour soup with shrimp - enough for two people, lots of mushrooms but one skewer of a single shrimp. We also had the shrimp and snow pea dumplings which were cute with little eyes and packed full of goodness. The Black Sea bass was cooked perfectly. Paired it with vegetable fried rice. We went elsewhere for dessert but sure it would have been delicious as well. read more

I casually dropped in for happy hour for a glass of wine. Wow! I was surprised! I started with the candied walnut shrimp with yuzu & wasabi, then, Kowloon beef tarts, BBQ Duck lettuce wraps, pastrami egg rolls, a variety of dumplings, steamed redfish in a lotus leaf, all carefully curated by Jacob. Excellent service, nice atmosphere, amazing food read more

restaurants. Recently, I saw a TikTok video about a place that looked great, so I decided to plan a date there with my partner. I called the restaurant, and they quickly answered the phone. I asked if they had any openings, even though it was already 7:30 PM on a Saturday night. The lady who answered was very nice and offered to make the reservation over the phone. While on my way to the restaurant, I realized I was running late, so I called to let them know. They were very understanding. When we arrived, all the servers were super nice, and the food was exceptional. Everything was delicious. I'm definitely going back! read more

The presentation was whimsical but unfortunately the portions sizes were pretty small. I realize it's dim sum but the lobster dumpling were just two small servings in a small cocktail glass. The Pac-Man dumplings were adorable! We were informed that there was a variety of dumplings on the platter (salmon, shrimp, bamboo, etc) but there must have been an error as each one tasted the same and had just shrimp as the key ingredient. Overall, cute place for a date night but likely won't return. read more

We went to RedFarm not knowing what to expect because of some Of the reviews. But I gotta tell ya we're so GLAD we did!! From the start Jenny the hostess with the mostess sat us. She was super sweet & friendly. Even though she was vegan and didn't eat meat she recommended some excellent dishes. Our waiter was Chris, he was great very attentive, friendly and helpful with recommendations. We started with a whisky drink which was basically a Japanese Old Fashion & My husband had the El Sabio. They were both delicious!! The yuzu foam on the El Sabio made my husband's drink. It was so delicious. We ordered the pork & crab soup dumplings, the 5 flavor chicken dumplings, the Yuzu Wasabi Shrimp and the duck noodles. It was so hard to choose what order everything was because everything was so flavorful. My favorite was the 5 flavor chicken dumpling. It was really tasty and with the topping of peanuts gave it a Thai flare. Crunchy and delicious! My #2 dish had to be the duck noodles. Which really could have been #1. They were big fat wide noodles like chow fun with sliced duck breast on top. They brought you a garlic chili sauce to add and the flavors were incredible. #3 were the crab & shrimp soup dumplings. Again great flavor. Lastly the Yuzu shrimp. Only 2 shrimp in an order so it's a small bite but the wasabi & yuzu sauce made the dish. They should give you more of the sauce on the side, it's that good. We met the manager Adrian. Super nice guy, down to earth friendly and genuine. Seems to really have RF interests at heart. From start to finish I'd highly recommend RedFarm. The food was delicious and has a nice atmosphere. It's a young crowd therefore it's on the louder side but I think that makes it fun & happening. Check it out and I'm sure that you'll be very happy that you did. read more

Highly recommend the rice noodles with BBQ Duck. It's so good I forgot to take picture. But a lot of reviewers alreasy posted picture. The duck meat is cooked perfectly. The fat all rendered and meat is juicy. The manager said the chef used same recepie as the street vendors in Taiwan. I would skip the applewood smoked bacon fried rice and order another hot and sour soup with a side of rice. Unconventional but the soup was so flavourful; so I want to eat it with plain white rice. The fried rice was ok, what I would expect of a chinese pork fried rice. Neighboring table ordered Happy Buddha from the special menu and raved about it. There is something special about the sauce. About the ambiance, this is in busy area of Austin, so space is a premium, the seating is tight. Just be mindful of talking too loud or bumping to neighbor. Parking is typical downtown parking. Try to find street parking or else pay the lot parking across the street. They do mentiom they share valet with next door restaurant. read more

It's a beautiful restaurant and the staff is friendly, but the food is forgettable. Nothing was that amazing. One dish was supposed to be spicy and it wasn't, also came out room temperature vs hot. Not worth the expense in my opinion. There are better options. read more

We had spicy crispy beef, shrimp stuff shishito peppers, truffle mushroom scallion pancake, crispy duck wontons, lamb dumplings, and pork/shrimp shumai. Sounds like a lot but perfect amount for 2 people. We didn't even get to dabble in entrees or rice/noodle dishes. 20/20 highly recommend read more
