Phenomenal food! We're in Syracuse for a conference, and didn't want to spend a fortune for mediocre food at the conference hotel, so we set out to find a good local spot via Yelp. Su Su Dim Sum came up at the top of the list, so off we went. I ordered a small (pint) of hot and sour soup and lamb with scallions. My wife ordered tangerine beef, and then we ordered red bean paste steamed buns to go for breakfast tomorrow. The soup was thick, full of chunks of tofu, plenty of vegetables, a little less peppery and a little less pungent than we like, but still better than typical Chinese restaurant fare. A bowlful of fried noodles came on the side. A great start! My wife, a veterinarian, suspected that the lamb was actually beef, but that question aside, the lamb dish was delicious, with plenty of meat, chunks of bell pepper, and abundant scallions, in a delicious sauce. The star of the night was the tangerine beef, lightly breaded and perfectly fried, in a savory and slightly sour sauce. A few broccoli florets, a handful of tangerine segments, and a wonderful thick sauce completed the dish perfectly. We packed up the leftovers, collected the steamed buns, and headed back to the hotel. We grabbed some menus to give to fellow conference attendees when they ask where we went out to dinner. read more

Not usually in the area but when I am, I make it a point to stop here. Just really great food overall. The hot and sour soup hits all the hot and sour tasting notes. I only wish it had different mushrooms. I loved the pork bao buns. They came with a tasty dipping sauce. read more

Not very much dim sum available here at all. Selection is sparse. What we got was good, but the name is misleading. This is a Chinese restaurant with a few dumplings on the menu. read more

We didn't really want to go somewhere we knew would be super packed for Valentine's Day which led us to trying somewhere new. We love dim sum so we looked up the local places that served it & found Su Su. The space is simple & I believe it may have once been a diner at one point in time. The staff tried their best as there were a fair amount of to-go orders & walk-ins. (As I said it was Valentine's Day) We decided to order a few different things. Each one was excellent. The flavors & temperature of each item were fantastic. I really enjoyed the pineapple fried rice. We'll certainly be going back to try a few more things! read more

This place is amazing! Everytime we come it is the same person taking our order, he is very attentive and the food is always made quickly. There is rarely anyone else in the restaurant when we are here which is so upsetting because this food is SO. GOOD. It is very clean inside and the tables are huge so you can fit all the food you order on it! The red bean bao are delicious and my go to. Very fluffy and flavorful, same with the pork bao. The wontons are chewy and delicious, perfect taste with the oil. The mapo tofu always blows me away. Can't wait to come back! read more

Converted diner which was a little odd but pleasant. When I went it was very cold inside so dress appropriately. The parking lot seemed a bit small for the size of the restaurant. I went for lunch on a Thursday and most of the business was take out. The star of the show were the steamed pork bao buns which were amazing. The steamed crystal shrimp dumplings were good and the ma po tofu was a little disappointing. But those steamed pork bao buns were amazing read more

Best Chinese food in upstate NY I've ever had! It tasted like I was in NYC Chinatown. Very good quality, quick service and everything came out nice and hot! I'm so glad I saw this place on TikTok and decided to try it with my sister. It was such a pleasure to have one plate after another come out on point. I loved their pan fried buns, the beef ho fun had just the right amount of sauce, the sesame chicken was soo good and even the bok choy was tasty. Highly recommend and I'll definitely be back soon. read more

Everything was so delicious and homemade - we had the steamed chicken dumplings, fried pork dumplings, sautéed shiang hai greens, and spicy short rib noodle soup. Very friendly service, clean atmosphere. This will definitely be our go to spot when we're craving Chinese (which is weekly, for us) read more

Su Su Dim Sum - Chinese Near Me - Syracuse, New York

I would have given this a 4.7 but Yelp only allows four or five stars so that's why we're giving it a five star because it wasn't perfect, but overall really enjoyable First and foremost: The food was better than expected. The hot and sour soup had a nice heat level - about a 3 out of 10, I probably would prefer a little bit more spice, but I think it was just right for the venue especially considering so often times hot and sour soups have no heat and it's flat without some spice. Short rib soup was delicious and shareable. Yakatori chicken skewers were also great. Lightly charred and very flavorful. We also ordered various dumplings from the dim sum menu but everyone at so fast that I only tried one pan fried and it was very good. Service: Sufficient but not super friendly. Quick service. Bathroom: Very clean, there was soap in the dispenser and paper towels to dry hands. Overall a pleasant surprise on the road. read more

Sad. I cant get around when a restaurant has no consistency. Ive ordered this honey walnut chicken many times as its one of my favorite dishes but today it came to me totally different. This dish is like the plain breaded chicken you would use in a sweet and sour dish except they covered it in some honey flavored mayonnaise . The dish ive had in the past was a brown sauce that was incorporated into the chicken breading sorta like the general tso dish and it was wonderful. Please be more consistent. read more

I've heard so many good things about this restaurant I had to try it. The inside was very casual and clean and I was greeted when I came in. You can order at the counter for take out or sit down and they'll take your order for dining in. I ordered an egg roll and Steamed Pork Bao Bun. 8 buns in the order. The egg roll was okay but after trying other items that were really excellent I'll pass on the egg roll next time. My pork buns were delicious, the bun itself was soft and thankfully thinner than most places ! The pork filling was flavorful and dipping the bun in the sauce added that nice umami taste. Most places the buns are so thick that the filling gets lost. I ordered the Roast Pork Fried Rice to bring home. I could hear them making it fresh in the kitchen and I couldn't resist trying some as I sat in the car because I knew it would be so hot and fresh. It was some of the best I've had. Lightly sauced with lots of Roast Pork pieces and lots of flavor. read more

Why was it empty? It is a nice, clean, spacious diner style dining room. The dim sum that we had was soo stinking good! Super pillowy bao buns with delicious pork filling. The steamed shrimp dumplings might be the best I have had. read more

Cute little Chinese take out restaurant that took over an old diner so it looks like a Chinese diner lol. Lots of room to spread out. Friendly staff and kept our tab open vs some Chinese restaurants that charge you per interaction. Only canned drinks, definetly prefer fountain for a sit down experience. Food tasted great. Was exactly $20 a person with tax and tip which is not bad. They also had duck on the menu which I love but definetly need to prepare for so I will be back! read more

Great place especially their duck. My wife is Chinese and every dish we've had there has been great. No complaints at all. Service is also good and food doesn't take long. read more

Great service and convenient location with plenty of parking! However, the dumplings were pretty bland and seem to be predominantly the frozen variety that you can get at any Asian grocery store. The shrimp dumplings actually tasted handmade, but lacking of real shrimp or they just were not fresh. The ingredients were either stored for a while or just not balanced with the protein. Of course, there are few places that offer dim sum in Syracuse so I was excited when I discovered it but also it seems that most people would not have much experience with what good dim sum is. Great concept but poorly executed. read more

Best Chinese food spot I've tried in Syracuse so far! Food was very fresh and the dumplings were hand made. When I went to pick up my food, the inside was super clean. read more

You drive up and see that the parking lot is empty. Initial thought is that this place sucks so much that no one wants to dine there. You open the doors and find yourself greeted by staff welcoming you to sit wherever you like. You patiently wait for your friend to show up because you didn't want to be dining alone in this aesthetically pleasing and clean establishment. What you don't know is -- this place has only been open a month! No wonder it's not bustling (yet). The shumai shrimp and pork were my favorite out of everything I ordered. Everything tasted great -- even my friend that never had dim sum enjoyed the food and experience. I noticed a handful of people ordering food delivery from this place -- so while there may not be any people dining in house -- there are some eating take out from here. Looking forward to trying more of their food and supporting this new local business. read more

We ordered the spring rolls, pan fried pork bao bun, Shu Mai pork and shrimp, and chicken lo mein to go. This the highest quality Asian takeout in the University/ Outer Comstock neighborhood. Everything was hot, delicious, and ready in 15 minutes. We can't wait to order from here again. read more

Ordered take out on a snowy Sunday evening. We got a little bit of everything. Egg rolls, spring rolls, shumai, fried dumplings, crab Rangoon, fried bao buns, general tso chicken, and shrimp with walnuts. Everything was good and obviously made in house. Bao buns were airy (not too doughy) with a nice filling. Rangoons were super light and crispy, but the filling was just okay. Shumai, eggs rolls, spring rolls, dumplings were all good. General tso was the best I've had in the area and the shrimp were large, cooked perfectly, and delicious. Will definitely order from there again. read more

2nd time here, but 1st time trying Salt and Pepper shrimp.. soooooo good! Not a saucy dish but the flavors are savory... fresh onions and red/green bell peppers over crunch noodles and shrimp is not over breaded and heavy, it's light. Definitely try it read more

Food and service great. Took food out. Very nice people and plenty of parking. Convenient location.

Went here a few times, and each time it exceeded my expectations, they went above and beyond to make sure I was satisfied with my order. They treated me very well and friendly despite me accidentally ordering the wrong food name. I ordered take out, but the ambiance was so nice and welcoming I couldn't help but sit and eat for a while. Lovely place with great authentic tasting food. Highly recommend, and wish them the best. read more

Awesome addition to the neighborhood, we've done takeout a few times and it's always been hot and delicious.

Food was good, service was a bit slow but generally good! The place had an old American diner vibe to it, which was funny. It was pretty quiet in there, but I liked the quiet. Their eggplant with garlic sauce was delicious! read more
