First time here, the food is phenomenal! The roast duck was marinated very well, tender, the roast pork is really good, probably the best I’ve ever had in Canada and the States, and the chicken feet is soft! Plus, a two combo meat over rice for only 14.95 is absolutely a steal! Can’t go wrong if you want real Chinese food here! The staff members are also super nice and helpful, especially Sherry! It was a busy time but she was still very dedicated and helpful, explaining what should I do and order, she is really amazing! The cleaning lady I saw in the kitchen was super hardworking and polite as well! I wish you all the very best! 🫶🏻

Superior dim sum, crispy pork belly, and congee at a great price! Everything here is outstanding. Dim Sum Sam is a true gem. Shout out to Sherry for great service!

Had an incredible meal at this Chinese spot—an absolute gem! The dumplings were perfectly juicy and bursting with flavor, easily some of the best I’ve had. The starters were delicious across the board, each one packed with bold, authentic tastes. The hand-cut noodles and ramen were amazing —rich, comforting, and perfectly cooked with just the right amount of chew. Every dish felt crafted with care and tradition. Highly recommend if you’re craving real, delicious Chinese food that hits all the right notes!

This was close to our hotel so we thought we would give it a go. It’s a no for us. Service was slow and not overly friendly. Restaurant shows its age and could use a good refresh. Front window is broken with a sign saying don’t touch. The appetizers were good, pan friend dumplings and scallion pancakes. The main dishes were very bland. Noodles were super chewy. There are better choices not far away.

Really good soup on a cold winter day. Good portions. Service is good. Prices are to be expected.

I was craving a fresh and satisfying meal before my departure, and this restaurant delivered phenomenally. The food is exceptional, and the location is incredibly convenient. Five stars.

The staff exhibited a lack of courtesy, and the food was excessively expensive and subject to high taxes. Notably, the condiments were withheld from my meal. Consequently, I will not be returning to this establishment.

I ordered a seafood noodle here, unfortunately there was almost no seafood except a few shrimp pieces, the food was tasteless! There were only two tables in the store, and one of them was picked by their staff with green beans on the table!

While this is not really traditional dim sum - there are no carts and many of the items are what I would consider Fusion, it is really fantastic. We went on a Friday night - it was busy but not ridiculously so. Which is a good thing because the restaurant is quite small. When we were there, there was a children's birthday party in the hibachi restaurant upstairs which was extremely loud. I don't know if that is normal or was just a special occasion. We started with a couple soups - the Tom Yum is really great and does not skimp on the seafood ingredients. The wanton noodle soup was good but there are better places in the area. Then we had a wide variety of dim sum items. The only thing I found disappointing was the lotus leaf rice, which was quite small and did not have the variety of ingredients that I would expect. Everything else was phenomenal. Our daughter loved the Hello Kitty dessert buns! For a more traditional, but also cart-less experience I would recommend Tim Ho Wan, but as a modern version of dim sum, with more slicker presentation, flavoring and style, Dynasty Dim Sum is a fantastic choice.

I had a large hot sake to warm myself up... And then another one to stay warm... So in my tipsy opinion, the food was really good! But I'm sure I would've enjoyed it sober too :) Wait staff was really nice, offered to reheat the hot sake. The dim sum isn't traditional Cantonese dim sum, but good in its own way. Definitely try the truffle oil soup dumplings.

Great place to satisfy your noodle cravings. The noodles are made fresh and cooked perfectly, chewy and tender. The broth are similarly delicious with just a little bit of heat. The restaurant is small and quaint which makes the atmosphere more pleasant and welcoming. The owner is equally polite and personable. He treated us as if we’ve been friends for years. I highly recommend this place, you will definitely love it!

Came here for lunch on a weekend and we waited around 20 minutes for a table of 2. The place is smaller than I expected considering the long line to get inside, but it was pretty cozy. We ordered the Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodles, Pickled Cabbage Beef Noodles, Lamb Chinese Hamburger, and Pork Chinese Hamburger. I thought the signature noodles came with too much chili oil and it overpowered the dish a bit. However, noodles and soup were still good. We both enjoyed the pickled cabbage beef noodles more, because the sourness of the pickled cabbage went well with the soup. Also, the beef was so tender!! We also enjoyed the pork hamburger more than lamb, it had a bit of heat but not too much. We thought lamb was a little dry, but tasted better if you dip it in your soup and add some black vinegar. Overall, cozy comfort food and I would come back again!

The food is delicious and tasty. The service is very friendly and accommodating. The owner is very good with the customers concerns. I would highly recommend this restaurant to friends and family.

I ordered fried dumplings and they were burned . Tasted horrible. I texted but have not heard anything. They r usually good don’t know what happened ! The chicken wing were over cooked too!

The XO fried rice was amazing - the scallop and the mushrooms paired well with the fried rice. The tofu with eel was quite spicy in comparison, but still quite flavorful. The eel was a bit soft after being in the sauce, so be sure to fish them out early

Efficient service with great tasting food - loved the short rib and mushroom rice, and believe them when they say their egg tarts are the best around.

I went here for lunch and I got the orange chicken with pork fried rice special which was $10 The food came quick and it tasted good!

It is a great take out Chinese food place and not expensive. order the flat noodles with shrimp, vegetable dumplings and they were so tasty. I did not have to wait long so that is nice. The employers are friendly.

This was place amazing! Got the half portion of Peking duck and noodles with shrimp. Definitely a must try! And this was my first time trying pecking duck. Bill was 74usd.

We did not yelp this restaurant before entering. We simply chose it because it was close to our hotel. We were not disappointed. The food is really good and the price is very fair. The walnut shrimp is large and fresh and soooo goood. The seafood dry pot is sizzling good. The fish maw soup was not to my liking. And the peppered short rib is so goood with rice. We even returned the next day for some noodle soup for brunch. Did not expect to find such a hidden gem like this.

A good variety of food that could appeal to everyone’s tastes. Not everything is the most authentic but the food was still good and perhaps more approachable to those less familiar with the cuisine. The portions are big (you could share two among three people) and pretty affordable for NYC.

I had their lunch offering of stir-fried BEEF with scallions ($14) which was tasty and I enjoyed. It came with a tasty egg roll and choice of white or brown rice. There was not a lot of beef, but what was there was of a good quality. Their egg drop soup was watery and I stoped eating it after two spoonfuls. The same thing with LAMB was poor because the lamb had no taste.

If you’re in New York and craving some seriously good dumplings, you’ve got to check out Din Tai Fung. From the moment I walked in, the staff was super friendly and made me feel right at home. The vibe is nice—modern but cozy. The Pork Xia Long Bao are perfectly made, with a thin skin that just bursts with flavor. I could eat a dozen of those without breaking a sweat. And don’t skip the Dessert Xia Long Bao! They’re filled with this sweet sesame paste that’s just the right way to wrap up the meal. The service was on point too—attentive but not overbearing. Overall, Din Tai Fung is a must-try if you love Taiwanese food. I’ll definitely be back for more!

Din Tai Fung always stands out for its authentic flavors and consistent menu. This location, right in the heart of Manhattan, delivers the classic Din Tai Fung experience perfectly. The wait can be a bit long, but once you're seated, the food comes out quickly, so it’s not too bad. The service is always friendly, and every dish we had was delicious. When it comes to xiaolongbao, this might be the best spot in all of Manhattan.
