Yum Cha is nearby where my daughters and I were staying in Las Vegas (LV). I read some great reviews. Thought we check them out. It is located in the Trop Plaza on Tropicana Ave and Decatur Blvd. Plenty of parking. Spacious inside with lots of seating. Klaws and other games were near the entrance which I find interesting especially in a Chinese restaurant. We were greeted and seated right away. They weren't super busy on a Monday late morning. Our server was pleasant and amicable. He attended to us frequently throughout our dining. Other lady servers brought us our food timely. Thank you All! Menu offers quite a variety... reg dim sum, delicious dim sum, chef specialties, house specialties, super dim sum, vegan no-meat dim sum, congee, noodles, rice dishes, appetizers, entrees, lunch specials, and more. Prices of the dim sum vary from $5.98 and up. We chose a handful of dim sum and one Shrimp & Pork Wonton Egg Noodles. Overall, dim sum was decent. A few of them could have been better in preparation, flavor, and taste. Wonton noodles were tasty. *Bean Sauce Chicken Feet - skin was on the tougher side, could have been more tender, sauce was too thick, flavor was okay *Crispy Taro Pancake - top layer was crispy, but taro fell apart when picked up by chopsticks *Egg Tarts - light and flaky crust with soft, smooth & jiggly egg custard filling, amazingly good, definitely would get again, wished it came with 3 instead of 2, they are bigger than normal egg tarts, but still *Fried Pork Ball - just okay, nothing special *Golden Sand Lava - huge baked bun with lots of oozing sandy egg yolk, must get! *Shrimp Dumpling - full of shrimps in thin skin, tasty filling, good size, worth the price! *Shrimp & Pork Chives Dumpling - more chives than shrimp and pork, flavor was mediocre *Shrimp & Pork Shumai - surprisingly flavorful, but wished there was more shrimp than pork Glad we got a chance to try this place. I would return to try their other dim sum and lunch specials in future LV visits. Worth stopping by if you haven'ty already. read more

Parking was easy. Stand alone building. Came midday, around 2pm, so it was a little slower and lacked the energetic and robust feeling of a typical dim sum restaurant. Set up was a little different, no carts, but there was a huge counter that displayed a lot of the dim sum...similar to take out counter in a market. They do table service and order from menu. Menu had a lot of photos and easy to navigate. The good: turnip cake-crispy and not oily, flavor of wonton Soup was good, Gai lan Chinese broccoli was tasty. Dumplings like Hargow, and siu Mai tasted a little old. Wrapper dry and filling was denser in texture. Tripe stew had good flavor but texture was mushy (passed the point of tender) Service was fine, staff was available when needed, but overall felt quality/ambiance could be better. Maybe better during prime time or breakfast. read more

I came here last year with some friends and family for dim sum lunch. When we got there, it was basically empty, with 3 other tables being served. Between the 6 of us we ordered about $160 worth of food. Service was very slow, and some of our order didn't arrive until we were done eat. 2 of the items we ordered, the chicken feet and offal dish, came out rancid while smelling rotten. They took the food back, we were done at the point. I am guessing due to the low traffic, they have been reheating food for days. That is absolutely disgusting. I use to come here for Dim Sum every time we came to Vegas, but this is the last time. read more

Love this place so much. Tasty dimsum. Plenty of parking. Service is fast as soon as you order they bring it right to your table. I always order the eggplant and my favorite steam pork ribs with taro. read more

Yum Cha - Eggplant - Dim Sum Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

We were served by Yiping, an attentive and courteous young gentleman who consistently ensured we had everything we needed. The food was delicious--honestly the best orange chicken and shrimp fried rice I've had in Nevada. This has quickly become a regular spot, and I come at least 3xs per month. Orange chicken Shrimp fried rice (SOO GOOD!!!) Combination chow mein Shrimp pot stickers The first time here we had a server who wasn't very friendly, but Yiping and the rest of the staff the next time we came were amazing! read more

Our family really enjoyed dim sum at Yum Cha. My sister wanted dim sum and my husband researched places to eat. Yum Cha was his choice and I'm so glad he took the time to look at dim sum places. This is not your average place that pushes cart and the order, you ordered by looking at the menu in a waitress/waiter, takes your order. The food is made to order so it comes out fresh. Each dish was perfect and delicious. The owner noticed that we were not from Las Vegas and gave us complementary dishes to try. We loved the spicy wontons, beef rolls and steamed beef tendon. My husband is really picky when it comes to beef tripe, but he kept expressing the tripe is so good here. The vibe here is so chill, not loud and crowded like a normal dim sum place back in Houston. We will be back when we visit again! read more

Fabulous taste, great variety, lower price than poor quality dim sum restaurants in town!

Yum Cha is a great authentic place for DimSum favorites. Food was delicious. Service was very quick. Price was reasonable and you didn't have to wait in line. The inside had Chinese decor. My kids thought the birds in the cages were real. Made a good laugh. Will definitely comeback. read more

There's no cart pushing around. You order from the menu with pictures. And it's very thoughtful to have the vegan selection. It's a place with hit and miss items. The chicken feet and the egg yolk pineapple pastries are so good!! We had to order more for takeout. But their shrimp dumplings are a bit dry. The fish cake is very spicy, definitely not kids friendly. The shrimp dumplings are a bit dry. And you can totally pass their fish tofu. The sticky rice doesn't come with salted egg yolk and it's on the light side, probably not enough seasoning. There's taro and ribs are good. We will come back for other items (tribes, eggplant, bean curd dumplings, and beef stews... etc) we didn't get this time. And they have good variety of pastry and beef tendons, too. The dessert coconut pudding is on the hard side and not as good as tofu pudding. And they charge differently if you pay by cash. read more

This review is for a delivery order on DoorDash. My family got into Vegas on a Saturday, but it was Valentine's Day and we didn't make a reservation ahead of time just in case our flights were delayed. We checked all over yelp for a place to eat, and eventually gave up but saw this spot was on DoorDash. We ordered a lot of dishes, and everything was surprisingly good! (I'm Chinese and from SF, so we have good food here.) The sticky rice and pork spare rib with taro were two dishes I wouldn't order again, not because they weren't tasty. The rice had less meat than I'd like. And the pork spare rib dish was tasty in the sauce, but there was more taro than rib. Just not worth getting again imo. The salted fish and chicken fried rice was good and surprisingly had a lot of fish! The black bean beef chow fun was good, but I've had better in SF. The har gow and shu mai were good. Chicken feet was good, but since it's dim sum portion, it is small. We only got 3 feet. The tofu with broccoli was a good veggie dish. Will have to try the food there sometime, but delivery was solid! read more

Yum Cha used to be our go-to dim sum spot every time we were in Vegas, but unfortunately the quality has really gone downhill over the past couple of years. We tried a variety of dishes and most were disappointing. The baked BBQ pork bun wasn't crispy at all, and the BBQ pork filling tasted noticeably different than before, almost like it wasn't made fresh. The shrimp and pork siu mai came out room temperature and was standard. The beef rice noodle seemed over-steamed with a mushy texture, though the sweet and savory soy sauce it came with did help balance out the dish. The shrimp dumplings (har gow) had a thin wrapper, but it also felt over-steamed and gelatinous, making it too soft and mushy. The fried pork taro dumpling was especially disappointing, it was clearly re-fried, with an extremely hard exterior that was difficult to pierce through even with chopsticks. The inside was a dark brown color, when it should have been light purple, which really threw it off. We were last here only 2 years ago and ordered the fried pork taro dumplings which came out perfectly, so maybe today was just a fluke. The one bright spot was the radish cake, which was thankfully fresh, crispy on the outside, and soft and fluffy inside, exactly how I remembered it growing up and easily the best dish we ordered today. Food came out very fast (within 3 minutes), but unfortunately speed came at the cost of quality. Given how poor the execution was this visit compared to how great it used to be, I don't think this will be a spot I will return to again. read more

Yum Cha - Left to Right: Baked BBQ Pork Bun, Beef Rice Noodle - Dim Sum Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Came here craving dim sum. I've been here a couple of times before and really enjoyed it in the past, but unfortunately the quality this visit was a miss. Aside from the radish cake, most of the food came out lukewarm, not hot, which made me wonder if it had been sitting for a while. Shu Mai - Very standard. Heavier on pork than shrimp flavor, and the appearance was off, the color didn't look like traditional shu mai and was missing that classic orange hue. Taro Fried Dumpling - A complete miss. The shell was overly hard and difficult to bite into, and the filling tasted like straight pork with no taro flavor. This used to be good on previous visits, so this was disappointing. Beef Chow Fun - Just okay. It felt like something was missing. The noodles weren't as soft or silky as expected, and the sauce lacked that slightly sweet soy flavor. BBQ Pork Buns - The bun itself was nicely golden and baked well, but the filling was off--very mushy, no texture, and the seasoning didn't hit. Radish Cake - The clear star of the meal. Super crispy, airy, and full of flavor. This dish alone saved the experience. Overall, this visit didn't live up to my past experiences here. I'm hoping this was just an off day, because the food I've had here before was much better. read more

Love this place. We have been a few times already and each time it has not disappointed us. My hubby started with the Seafood Dumpling Soup...he finished every last drop! Then came the Chicken LoMein. The chicken was tender and the noodles, perfectly cooked. The Sweet and Sour Chicken was perfection with the right balance of onions, pineapple chunks, and bell peppers this dish comes with Steamed Rice. You can't leave without trying some dim sum items, so we ordered the BBQ Pork Baked Buns, Shrimp and Pork Shumai, and lastly, Red Bean Balls with were crispy and soft, so good! The 3 dim sum items were fantastic! The ambience is relaxed, the dining room is very large and can accommodate large parties. There are several TVs throughout but who's watching TV with all this amazing food on the table. P.S. Their service was very prompt and the food was served hot! read more

An awesome spot for traditional and vegan dim sum. The food was really good, hot, and fresh. My husband and I tried a few dishes: The Salt & Pepper crispy Pumpkin, chive dumplings, steamed buns with veggie meat alternative and the fired eggplant in sauce. We really loved the chive dumpling and the steamed buns which were really fluffy. The fried eggplant was also good though it was a tad sweet for us. I enjoyed trying their chili crisp sauce. I really want to go back and try more here. Next time I want to try their Chinese churros, roti with chickpea potato curry, lemongrass curry hot pot with fried tofu, and the veggie spicy mango sauce dish. Yum Cha literally means in Cantonese :"Drink tea" and the terms is used sometimes for a dim sum daytime meal with tea. Not much of an atmosphere here but I found it to be a really cool place from a cultural experience perspective. it was an absolute mad house with a substantial wait even for a party of two at 11:30 am on a weekday around the holidays (2024) Not sure if that is typical. My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out! An Evie favorite! read more

Yum Cha - Great food and service. On Mother's Day! Thank you for recommending good menu. Desert buns are so delicious as well! Yum - Dim Sum Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

As you enter the dining room, there's nothing very special. I will say I like the openness between tables. The menu offers a lot of options. Everything that we ordered was very good. I wish we had focused more on the dim some options as the ones that we chose we're all good. The lunch dishes were a little underwhelming, but to be fair that's on us. We should have stuck to ordering off of the dim sum menu. I think I would definitely go back. read more

Good dim sum, reasonable prices. Service is pretty good. They have a big dinner room. Good for large parties. My favorite here is the pork dumplings and congee.

Wanted dim sum while out here from AZ, this place had some of the better reviews. We ordered a couple of dishes. None stood out and the price was a bit high for no flavor and low quality.

Maybe it's because I'm from Orange County and have high expectations for dim sum but this place was pretty decent for being in Vegas. My biggest complaint was the staff and their attitude problem. We asked for extra bowls and utensils for our group to share a soup and they insisted that the soup was too small to get bowls to share. I just don't understand what the problem is, We ordered multiple soups so maybe we wanted to share multiple soups. Also, the restroom was really gross. read more

This place serves 24 hour dim sum! Well almost pretty much all day which is so awesome! I'm always in the mood for dim sum doesn't matter time of day. The items are definitely authentic and fresh.

All day dim sum, I sold. I wouldn't have to wake up early and deal with a crowd. The servers here is good, but it wasn't busy at all around 3pm . Their dim sum is fresh and their dishes were just as good as it would be in the morning. Their congee was flavorful and comforting and do come in individual sizes or a big bowl if you have a party with you . The dining area is clean and well decorated with wooden bird cages hanging from the ceiling . It's a big restaurant so bring the fam , I'm sure they can accommodate to 10+ in a party . They do have comfy booths and Flat screens TVs around the restaurant. Convenient place a mile off the the strip for dim sum and other Chinese dishes no matter what time of the day. Definitely bookmarking this place for Dim sum . read more

If craving for dim sum this place is delicious. We enjoyed the sticky rice with har gow, suimai and shrimp rice noodle. The fried shrimp ball was just okay it was just over fried. The bbq pork bun was sweet and savory. But what took it over for me was the pineapple bun with salted egg inside. Perfectly sweet and salty, soft and crunchy. I would go back just for it and can't wait to go back for it. Service was ok, could be better l. It's a pretty big restaurant with lots of seating and parking outside. read more

Las Vegas are full of Dim Sum restaurants and a lot of expensive ones on the strip inside all the huge hotels. I will say if you want to go where the locals go, this will be the place, it has great food and it is not expensive compared to everyone on the strip. The service is great and the food comes fast. All dim sum tasted excellent. The restaurant does felt older, but I don't mind that considering the value and food taste. This is a place to go if you don't want to over pay and want authentic dim sum. read more

I came to Yum Cha from a recommendation of a family member who raved about the salted yolk buns with topping. He loved them so much he requested we fly back 6 orders of them to Texas (which we did). Other than that the dim sum was average but in a good way. The classics were solid - har gaw, shu mai, fried shrimp, chong fun. Overall I had a good experience, wouldn't go out of my way to come back, but wouldn't mind stopping by if someone wanted to go. read more
