Excellent dim sum menu! Loved the pork in black bean sauce and the turnip cakes. Have eaten here twice now.

This review is based solely on some of their dim sum from their dim sum menu and not the meals from their main menu. The other reviews on this site also cite being frequent customers and nostalgia. I do not have that bias.
Due to current economic conditions, I've noticed many businesses practicing shrinkage, especially when that shrinkage can be hidden -- such as fillings in egg rolls and dumplings. That was no different here. It was very obvious in their baked pork buns. Stuffed with less than a tablespoon of pork filling. I also noticed it with their chive dumplings, both steamed and pan fried. The siu mai were standard size, but quality of the pork filling was rubbery-tough with gristle. I had to floss my teeth for that. The flavors for all the dim sum were on point and I did enjoy their tofu skin roll. While I wish I could say I had a better meal, that wasn't the case as I couldn't get myself to finish all that I ordered.

We often ate at the original Hang Ah restaurant in SF back in the late 1960's & early 70's. Moved to SR in 1973 and were floored when Hang Ah opened in the old AW building around 2008??? Best authentic SF style Chinese Dim Sum hands down in Santa Rosa.

I always enjoy the food here. It's some of the best Chinese Food in Santa Rosa and everything tastes authentic, good, and always freshly made. There's always plenty of parking, never too busy, and the service is impeccable. My favorite part of the restaurant is the bright pink Hannah Montana clock behind the counter, really brings the whole place together.

We eat out a lot, and while I enjoy great food I am rarely surprised by it. (I know, that sounds douchey but just being honest here). Today was my first time at Hang Ah Dim Sum and, wow, I was surprised. I have mostly given up on trying to find good Dim Sum north of San Francisco, but I just found a new, go to place when I am craving quality, tasty, fun-to-eat food.
The space looks like a converted Dennys, but is not cheesy or weird, just simple and clean. The service is all business, polite but no doting and pandering. Just going to politely take your order, fill your water and move on.
If you are looking for fine dining in Santa Rosa go to Starks and John Ash. If you are looking for hot, tasty, hand made in house comfort dim sum at a very reasonable price. come here. It is truly fantastic. I will be back over and over again.
(Sorry I was too excited to take pictures. Here is one steam bun)

The *Spicy Crispy Chef Prawns*, we're very delicious for the lunch special.
Food was bulletproof. Everything was fresh and well done. Baked BBQ pork bun was as good as Eastern Bakery in SF. Shu Mai was a standout. Usually I don't like them, but theirs were on point. They didn't set a bad plate down on the table. Good tea, quick service. Shout-out to the server with drip levels unseen before waiting tables in a jeweled out kith shirt and diesel jeans.

I am old enough to remember when this was an A&W Root beer drive-in, complete with car hops! But now...
This is a great place for families to experience and share traditional dim sum in a casual atmosphere. Lots of choices and fast service even when they are busy - which is always!
Wheelchair accessibility: Easy in and out and the dining room is spacious enough to accommodate wheelchairs

This is a fantastic restaurant. They went above and beyond to accommodate my large group and my last minute headcount changes. I have been going here for years by myself and with groups. The food is always delicious. Thank you, Hang Ah.
Kid-friendliness: They accommodated families with children with booster seats.

Used to be great. Got rushed yesterday to finish up, grabbing the debit card over our food, food wasn't what it used to be.
