Dim Sum!
See All Lists
1. Top Gun Hot Pot
Ever since I picked up a Top Gun gold card from eating at Kingsway Sushi all the time, I've been coming here more and more. This place is fabulous for a number of reasons:
1. The food
If you want your regular run of the mill dim sum at cheap prices,…More »
2. Kam Wai Dim Sum
I stopped by here once last year when Thu recommended it. It felt like stepping into a Chinese restaurant from the 90s with the plastic sheets over the table! But when I stopped by on the weekend for a dim sum fix, it had completed converted itself…More »
3. Neptune Seafood Restaurant
Richmond, BC V6X 3K1
(604) 207-9888
I'm always on the hunt for dim sum restaurants, and I especially love cheap food. So when I saw this place last week, I had to stop in and ask about their lunches.
Tip One: If you order your dim sum before 11am, it's 20% off (from previous reviews,…More »
4. Imperial Court Beijing Cuisine
Came here for dim sum after reading a few reviews here, and overall was happy. The place is has 20% off their dim sum menu if you put in an order before 11am. As usual, I ordered way too much food for two people, and ended up bringing home a lot of…More »

Dim Sum
Neighbourhood: Kensington-Cedar Cottage
Had high expectations when I came here for dim sum the other day, and the place did not disappoint! In a nutshell, gigantic dim sum, great tea, and good service.
1. Make a reservation. The restaurant is quite small, and even at 2:15pm, they had…More »

Richmond, BC V6X 1C3

**See my previous review for King Crab dinner.**
Came here for dim sum, and was instantly reminded about why this place was fab. Seeing how its order before 11am for a 20% discount, we took our time in selecting the more unique dishes. The top dish we…More »

Chinese
Neighbourhoods: South Cambie, Riley Park
I'm always happy when I can find a new dim sum restaurant that is transit friendly. When I mapped this one out, I was delighted to find out it's located right outside Oakridge-41st on the Canada Line. So a 20 minutes later, I was walking into the…More »
8. Jade Dynasty Restaurant
This place is a choice selection of the eldery Chinese people, and I can never get myself a seat before 11am. The food here is decent, the order sheet has a large variety and the prices are okay. The place is small though, and service isn't the…More »
9. Floata Seafood Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6A 4E9
(604) 602-0368
I've never been here for anything other than dim sum, but I can't help it - I love me some cheap dim sum. If you head here before 11am, your dim sum is all one price of $2.75 (except for rice rolls, which are $3.30). If you get there around 9:30ish…More »
10. Kam Wah Loong Seafood Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V5V 3E3
(604) 255-8927
What a delicious place! It's yum and a great deal with slow service, but that's just the way dim sum should be. You don't associate dim sum restaurants with old Chinese people reading newspapers for nothing!
To sum it up: CASH ONLY, all dim sum is…More »
11. Fisherman's Terrace Seafood Restaurant
Richmond, BC V6X 4J7
(604) 303-9739
Yelp has never steered me wrong with food suggestions. Especially when you type "dim sum" near "Richmond". It's like looking for the gummi de milo at a candy convention, you know what I mean?
I think Yelp's a little outdated on the info for this…More »
12. Delicious Chinese Cuisine
Vancouver, BC V5N 2R8

Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Kensington-Cedar Cottage
This place changes names like crazy! I was on the hunt for it, but it's now called Treasure Court, so it was a lot harder to find (and every phone number I found was not in service). Instead, I googled the address to ensure the place was still…More »
13. Gingeri Chinese Cuisine
After waking up late on a Sunday morning, I rang up Gingeri to see whether they had early morning dim sum. I've been determined to try out new dim sum places, so I was alert and ready to go within 10 minutes of the receptionist telling me that you…More »
14. Lucky Tao Restaurant
Richmond, BC V6X 1C3
(604) 233-1219
After hearing that Lucky Tao offered dim sum, I became pretty curious because I'd only ever been here for King Crab dinner, but I mean... why not, right? So I was determined to give it a try, and on a lovely Sunday morning showed up shortly after…More »

When March comes around, I have an itch for king crab. Without fail, every year. But usually I have… Read more »
15. Century Palace Chinese Restaurant
Apparently going here twice has made me the duchess. I'll take it!
Came here for dim sum with the families while on a visit back home, and then again because I think someone thought it was awesome. The prices are totally reasonable, and some of their…More »
16. Golden Ocean Seafood Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6M 1Y8
(604) 263-8886
This place is a clear gem in Kerrisdale. We got there at 10am when it was still early, but by 10:30 the place had already filled up. By the time we left at 11:30, there was a crowd at the door, a crowd outside the door, and a crowd downstairs on the…More »
17. Pelican Seafood Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V5L 1T3
(604) 251-3395
While riding the 135 bus a few months back, I looked out the window and saw a group of elderly Chinese people heading into this restaurant around noon. And you know when the elderly people go here to party it up at lunch, it's got to be worth a try.

18. Grass Mountain Villa
This hidden joint is tucked away in the corner of an old plaza, so when my parents said they wanted dim sum here I was like "where is that?! really??"
But lo and behold, there was a dim sum place. I was fairly worried that the place would be crazy…More »
19. Paradise Fine Chinese Dining
The is the default dim sum place when I come home for a visit. It's close by, the service is fast, it's never crazy busy when you go early in the morning, and the food is yum.
Pay your bill by 11:30, and all SML dishes are $2.75! Some of the better…More »

Scarborough, ON M1S 2B7

Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Scarborough
While the prices here are a bargain, the quality of food is lacking. Came here for dim sum with the extended fam the other day, and was impressed when I heard the numbers: 1.80 for all sizes of weekday dim sum; 2.50 on weekends (3 for the special…More »
