I usually stop by every morning for their congee and sometimes try other dishes. The roast pork is consistently excellent, and the roast duck over rice never disappoints. The place might feel a little rundown and could use a deep cleaning, but that’s often the sign of truly great food.

This is really just a take out place for Dim Sum. If you want sit down with cart service go to Dynasty across the street.

Whenever we order bahn mi sandwiches from Duc Huong across the parking lot we come here to grab Dim Sum to go and then go back and pick up our sandwiches.

If you come after 6pm they do a buy 2 get one free clear out special, which is great, but it means a limited selection compared to what they normally have.

Hope the owners will rent a smaller space and clean it up, because the food is great if you like Hong Kong style dimsum to go.

Prices are reasonable and everything tastes great. The chive dumplings, eggplant dumplings, shrimp rice noodle rolls, and chow mein were all tasty.

Cashier and people there do half ass work. U have to ask for everything. Utensils, napkins sauces. Why even open a restaurant. Doesn’t have tea so I asked if hot water would be ok and was said no, crazy for a dim sum place. Food’s normal.

Food is decent enough and generally large portions but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE change your gloves if you're handling cash then food. It's actually more sanitary if they would just wash their hands instead or have different ppl handling food vs payment.

Roast duck was good. Shrimp dumplings and shrimp Siu Mai were so bad I couldn’t finish. They didn’t smell fresh. And the texture was weird. I also got a green vegetable small dumpling kinda thing, which was good.

This place went downhill big time! Very dirty. If I wasnt so hungry, I would have left immidiately. Long wait for service eventhough there was only a few people in line. Ha Gao and Shu Mai are good, but dont trust the cleanliness of the kirchen. Bao was dry.

Once you decide to buy the whole duck bbq or whole steamed chicken there, don't ask the cutting lady who behind the cover counter bar to cut duck or chicken for you, better bring it home to cut it by yourself.

I love the roasted pork, and duck here at Tai Pan. Honestly, i ate at Tai Pan for over 10 years now. Their food is always on point, price is affordable. Cant complain.

I recently visited Taipan Dimsum at 1070 Story Rd, and overall, the experience was good. The food was fresh and tasty, and the service was quick. The atmosphere is always friendly and welcoming. However, there was one issue. A younger, heavier male cashier was working during my visit, and he was a bit cheap when it came to giving out sauces. It was disappointing because I’ve never had this problem at other locations. The rest of the staff and food were great, but the service from this cashier could definitely be improved. Despite that, I’d still recommend Taipan for the quality of food, just hope that the service is more consistent next time.

My husband bought Glutinous rice sesame balls in Taipan today, but he kept vomiting and diarrhea. I have a closer look. The Glutinous rice sesame balls are full of oil. They are not dry. I think they can't sell out. They are fried again and again. It's terrible

Those ladies work at this location are mean, rude and unorganized when it come to serving customer. Like they pick and choose which customer they want to take instead of serving line. No clear communication even in vietnamnese. It happen to us many time not only one time. It's best to go to tai pan on Capitol expy. Never come back to this location again.

This is definitively one of the worst dim sum I have had.

It's primarily an order and take out place. The restaurant feels sad and dingy and service is to be expected of a take out dim sum.

I had a variety of ~3-4 classic items. The food tastes worse than reheated microwaved dim sum from a grocery store for easily 3x the price. They'll rip you off with the most bread I've seen in a bao. I went in the morning and the food was already not fresh and cold.

Do yourself a favor and skip this place.
