I came here on a Friday evening at 8:15pm, with about an hour before the restaurant had to close. Already having in my mind what I wanted to order to ensure that I would be out before the place closed to be respectful of the waiting staff. The server was extremely rude from the moment that I walked in. Upon coming in, I was not greeted at all. No Hi, Hello, or anything. The server glanced at me and I asked for a table for 1. In which he turned around with a menu and sat it on a table. He said absolutely nothing to me when doing this. The only thing that this water asked was for my drink order, if I was ready to order food and if I wanted to place anymore orders because the kitchen was closing. He did not crack a smile or try to be kind at all. Was definitely a poor customer service experience, and I was really looking forward to visiting the spot for the first time. While the customer service was terrible, the food was pretty good. I ordered a few dim sum appetizers and was pleasantly surprised by the taste and how fulfilling these small appetizers. In addition, it was such a large selection and all priced very fairly. The food alone would make me return but hopefully the service the next time will be a lot better. read more

For anyone who has never had Dim Sum, it's like the Spanish Tapas of the Chinese/Cantonese world. We have a few places in Jax that offer these but it can be tough to get a reservation close to Lunar New Year and traditional times for Dim Sum. I found S&R on a yelp search and gave it a try. I got a photo of the DimSum menu (1 page) and their drinks. The restaurant offers many additional dishes, but that was not what I was there for, so I cannot speak to them. We ordered fruit teas in the form of slushies that were absolutely the most fresh and authentically made of fruit slushy I've ever had. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone who wants a true delicious fresh fruit drink experience plus they added benefits of Boba. My husband had the mango and I had the "oh my melon" which !Surprise! Was watermelon, not honey dew or cantaloupe as I assumed. I added strawberry popping boba and was beyond delighted with my drink. We ordered pork dumplings, sia bao steamed buns, soup dumplings (Hallelujah!!), spare ribs (Errrmeergerrd!), and lotus sesame sweet buns. Absolutely delicious, savory, well cooked, not a single disappointment- will definitely come here again! The restaurant was nearly empty on a late Sunday afternoon, but the kitchen was popping with online delivery orders so I know they have solid business. The walls are decorated with wistful and pretty murals in muted green and blue hues, dark wood furniture. Map directions are unfairly pointing you to turn down the wrong road to get there so check your map; it says Riverside, but you have to turn on Margaret Street! read more

Worst experience we've ever had. Food was not good and the server we had was rude to us and especially to his cashier/host, everybody could hear him yelling at this girl since there was no music, and to top it all off every time he took a dirty dish he's like raging just putting it in the bucket. It was one of the most uncomfortable experience ever. Would not recommend unless you want to experience eating like you're in a toxic household read more

Best dim sum in town! The price is so reasonable. They steam the dim sum after you order. This restaurant is known for food, not for the service. The restaurant is bright and clean. I'd go back every time for dim sum. read more

Service was quick and efficient. Our server was kind . Food was delicious and came out fresh and hot . We ordered beef chow fun and dimsum (shrimp balls , chicken feet , shrimp shumai , pork bean curd) . Definitely coming back with more family and friends . Also loved how they are Cambodian owned . read more

We were in the mood for Dim Sum and our go-to spot was closed. Man oh man am I glad we stumbled upon this spot. The food was absolutely delicious. Everything we ordered was amazing. The buns were soft pillows and the filling on everything was just scrumptious. We ordered multiple items on the Dim Sum menu as well as General Tso chicken. AHHHHHMAZING!!! I cannot say enough how good everything was. The waiter was on it as well, our drinks were never empty and food just kept coming out as it was ready. This will definitely be a spot we visit again. I only got 1 photo because as the dishes kept coming we devoured them immediately! read more

Burned oil made fried shrimp balls taste burned. We came at 2:10 pm on a Sunday and the place was empty. We ordered fried shrimp balls, potstickers, and sesame balls. Shrimp balls had a dark brown color and had a distinct burned taste. Potstickers fell apart when picked up. Sesame balls we're ok. I complained to the server and he argued with me. "We have to cook them that way so the inside is cooked". We won't be back. read more

Have been here a handful of times for their takeout dim sum and boba tea, both of which are great. The dim sum selection is a step up from the other dim sum restaurants in Jax. Hardly anywhere else sells shrimp rice rolls and chicken feet, which are two of my favorites. The prices are also great compared to the other dim sum restaurants around Jax. S & R is everything I need when it comes to filling my dim sum cravings. I tend to do takeout because the restaurant is on the quieter side and there isn't much going on inside. Wish there was music or TVs going, maybe that would invite more people to stay and eat. People who work there are great and accommodating. They have all the chili oil, soy sauce, noodle sauce, and dumpling sauce in containers so that you can enjoy the dim sum at home as you would in the restaurant. **A sleeper dish is the general Tso's chicken, nice lightly breaded pieces of white meat in a flavorful sauce. My favorite general Tso's I've had in Jax so far! read more

Absolutely incredible!! We ordered so many difference dishes and they were all delicious!! 10/10, everything was fantastic! A MUST is the pineapple crusted egg custard buns, it's basically a desert but it's SOO good! I really enjoyed the pork rolls as well, and the vanilla cashew shrimp with rice! You truly can't go wrong with anything on the menu! The service was fairly quick and the price was very reasonable. The shop is quiet, with minimal decorations, and we came with a larger group which they accommodated. read more

This is my favorite dim sum shop in all of Jax! I have never been in the restaurant when the kitchen did not rush out the orders super quick and the staff is always knowledgeable about recommendations. The place always smells clean and the ambiance is bright and cheerful making it a cozy place for a long lunch and chat with a friend. Me and a friend have been working our way through the entire dim sum menu and have only found a few things that we don't care for. All of the food is prepared quickly and looks yummy! Dim sum from this visit: - deep fried meat dumpling - fried chive and shrimp (one of my favorites!) - pork steam soup - beef short ribs in sauce - pan fried pork dumplings - shrimp dumplings - pineapple custard buns Then I got three to go orders off the menu to have for dinner this evening with the fam! - sesame chicken - beef & broccoli - hunan spicy beef - another order of the pineapple custard buns (don't judge- my family loves these!) This was my first time trying anything off the regular menu and I have to say I am equally delighted with the result! It came out really good (even needing to reheat it as dinner was several hours later). read more

Maria, there will not be a next time. Did you read my review. Absolutely worst restaurant. Employees dod not care. Manager would not speak to me about my issues with food. Horrible place. read more

I ordered DoorDash from here tonight since I'm in Jacksonville on business this week and everything was very good. The potstickers were the juiciest I've ever had and nicely fried. The steamed pork buns were also very good, although they got a little mushed when delivered. And the beef crepe, although it has a different name, was also good, and it came with a soy dipping sauce. The mango cheese tea was delicious as well. Overall I would order from here again or go to the restaurant if I was visiting the city. read more

They had available free parking. This is a no nonsense dim sum restaurant. You don't go here for ambience or small talk with the waiter..... you go here for tasty, fresh dim sum!

I'll start by saying it was a bit hard for he to find. I'll blame it on my GPS, not them! But I know that guy that answered the phone, not very friendly, guaranteed it's the same one another family spoke about! To me, all the food had the same taste..almost liked a burnt taste....nothing tasted "different" from the next. I ordered $80.00 worry of food, but you can't tell. I tried the pan-fried noodles w/shrimp...broth was bland, and just had not much of a flavor burst I was expecting. I ordered the Mongolian beef and wonton noodle soup, maybe it's just me, but I like my noodles already in the broth, just a preference. Hubby had the beef and broccoli, but all the food just smelled the same! Both dishes came with the hard noodles on the side. The inside looked very nice and very clean. But would I visit again.....more than likely no. read more

Food was ok 3/5 (see pics) nothing to write home about Service was bad 1/5. There was only 1 server and he had an attitude from start to finish, I never saw him smile the whole time and he set the dishes on the table so aggressively, and talked rudely it was extremely annoying. Based on the other reviews, this wasn't the only time he gave bad service. The owners should read customer feedback and give him proper training and instructions. How hard is it to be nice? If he's overwhelmed due to being the sole server there, then the owners should consider hiring another server SMH Ambiance was above average 4/5 but no amount of good ambiance would make me come back for mediocre food and subpar service. To think that we went there to celebrate my daughter's birthday. She wanted to try this restaurant but we ended up being disappointed. If I could turn back time, I wouldn't have spent my $100+ there. We would've been happier eating at Chick fil A where they always give great service day in and out ‍ read more

I ordered delivery from this place as it was said to be good, I an 79 and depend on ordering sometimes, I placed an order, with good tip, of $71. It took over an hour from pick up to delivers, Uber Eats and no receipt, and I got the wrong order of about $20 worth of food I do not eat. I believe it was a major screw up of Uber Eats. Therefore I cannot give a review of the food. DO NOT ORDER FROM UBER EATS at this restaurant. read more

The food is really good here! Pretty reasonable sizes for the portions. They have an extensive dim sum menu. However, I've been there two times now and the main waiter is not very friendly which is why I would give it 4 stars. It's a small restaurant with some family style seating, not fancy, more casual. read more

Everything is great it's always hard to pick what I want. I love the dim sum options and that's everything is home made

I would never have expected one of the best dimsum places that I've tried to be located in Jacksonville, Florida! I was curious after seeing in passing a favorable comparison to LA and NYC dimsum places. The reviewer wasn't wrong. Their dimsum menu has fewer options than some others that you might find in cities with larger Chinese American communities, but what they lack in variety, they more than make up for in quality. I appreciated how none of the savory items that we ordered were too greasy or salty. They were all surprisingly light and as delicate as fried items can be. The seafood egg noodle soup was also flavorful and soothing. The pineapple buns and lotus seed paste sesame balls were stellar! Unlike some other dimsum places, you order from the menu, and items come out around the same time or in close succession instead of being pushed around in carts (they don't have the space or staffing for this). The restaurant was also clean with enough space between the tables, so you don't feel squished. I would definitely take family and friends here if we visited Jax together. read more

Went to S&R dim sum with my nieces for a girls day Lunch. We ordered lots of items off of the dim sum menu, but the highlights of our meal were the pineapple bun, the shrimp rice noodles and the radish cake. Everything was delicious though. The service was mixed, because we got everything in a timely fashion , but our waiter wasn't very nice. Overall, it didn't matter because the most important thing was at the food was good. The prices were reasonable and I wouldn't hesitate to go there again. read more

I have always wanted to try this place out, so for my birthday, my friend and I went here. On a weekday during lunch time, parking is easy to find. The place itself is a decent size. Customer service was ok, not the best I would say, but not bad. For drinks we got water and hot jasmine tea. The tea didn't stay hot in the pot like most places. But nevertheless, still warm. For food, we got shumai (very good), chicken feet (decent, more on the dried side, not the best chicken feet), black bean spare ribs (simply delicious with lots of flavors, you must try this one), pan fried shrimp chive dumplings (this one was my favorite, so freaking good), soup dumplings (the dough is too thick for me, but the flavors were there), shrimp balls (they were good), and sesame balls (yummy) for dessert. Overall. This place is good and I would come back again. read more

I had been craving some Wonton soup and pork soup dumplings for a while. I thought I would try this place and the only thing that was good was the Wonton soup. The server was extremely rude and unwelcoming, the setting was nice and clean so that's a plus. Then I was excited once the soup dumplings came but when I saw them I was not impressed. They were overly doughy and dry and they looked more like a pork bun than a dumpling. Needless to say I can't see myself returning to a place that has such horrible customer service. read more

Great ambiance, the food was amazing! Definitely come here!! I would recommend this place to everyone

S&R Dim Sum is delicious! I highly recommend. I have attached photos of the ambiance, which is pretty standard for a restaurant--no particular vibe they went for. The service was speedy and the food came quickly. Everything was exactly as pictured on their menu--like seriously. The photos are EXACTLY what you order. The portion sizes are large and filling and the price is perfect! We ordered some baked buns, steamed buns, fried dumplings, soup dumplings, spring rolls, sesame balls and some white rice! Everything was so satisfying and as the portion sizes were so large, we took things home. My favorite items were the baked buns and fried dumplings--highly recommend those. All in all, will return! read more

Food was good only complaint was the fried rice was a little greasy but really good flavor. Wonton soup was also amazing and each dumpling had a shrimp! Pork soup buns never disappoint as well as the sesame balls and turnip cakes. There was a mixup with our order but the employee up front got it figured out and got our food to us asap! read more

WORST SERVICE POSSIBLE. The only way I'll eat from here is through DoorDash. The waiter that runs this place is an as**ole. Really just ruins the meal to be treated that way. I find myself apologizing for asking for a napkin. As for ambiance, it's stark, cold, and silent. Hate eating here. read more

Came here for lunch one afternoon while I was in town. Service wasn't all the friendly, and the restaurant was pretty simple and plain looking. Don't come here expecting the Hong Kong style carts for dim sum. The menu had a good selection, but missing some of my favorites. I ordered the Sui Mai, Beef Rice roll, soup dumplings, and stuffed eggplant. The worst of these was probably the soup dumplings. The wrapper was tough and chewy, and ALL of them broke in the steaming basket. I appreciate their attempt at making these dumplings, but unfortunately didn't work. The rice noodle roll had a good texture, but the beef was very simple and not the usual cilantro flavor that I'm used to. The sui mai and eggplant was pretty average. I understand that there's not many dim sum places in the Jacksonville area. But there are a few places they could improve upon. read more

I absolutely LOVE the server Donald, do not let the reviews scare you off from this restaurant. I have been coming to this restaurant for about two years and he is an extreme hard worker. He works every day the restaurant is open and he is typically the only server, while busing the tables, delivering the food, running the cash register, and answering the phone. He completely does it all. Although he does have a dry sense of humor and is very straightforward, once you get to know him he is hilarious and very nice. As for the food, I always order the fried rice. The portion is very big and extremely worth the price. I am vegetarian and they are very accommodating. I definitely recommend this place but come with an open mind and give the server a chance. If you don't take him seriously he is a very good time and will make you laugh for your whole meal. read more

I absolutely LOVE S&R Dim Sum! I stumbled across this gem a couple months ago and haven't gone more than 2 weeks without since. The food is always fresh, plated nicely, and tastes even better than it looks. We've even placed a few orders on door dash from S&R, which did not disappoint. The ambiance is quite homey, but most importantly CLEAN, with more than enough room between tables and their parties. The service, in my opinion, is top notch. The waiter is very thorough and to the point, attentive, and actually quite friendly. S&R has certainly become a no hesitation go to in my home. read more

Food is great but service is horrible. The particular server we had only socialized with one specific race and no one else. Very rude and didn't pay anyone else any mind. Kept things short. Other than the service, the food is always a hit. read more

I have never been in person, but always order from here off DoorDash. It never disappoints. Every time I get something new, I am blown away by the delicious food. I'm a sucker for good dim sum, and this place takes the cake. I will need to go in person at some point. If the food is just as good doing delivery, I know it will be exquisite in person. I would leave some recommendations but this review would be a novel. Check them out! read more
