Dim Sum Restaurants near Tustin, CA

“Mama Lu Dumpling House is truly a standout spot for dumpling lovers. It can be a little easy to miss from the outside since it’s tucked into a strip mall (near CVS and Meet Fresh), but once you find it, it’s absolutely worth it.

The handmade dumplings are consistently fresh and packed with flavor. The juicy pork and chive dumplings are always a favorite, and the xiao long bao come out perfectly steamed with rich, savory broth inside. Every bite tastes authentic and comforting. The noodle dishes bring that warm, homestyle flavor that makes you feel like you’re enjoying a meal in Shanghai.

The space itself is spacious and great for larger groups. The ambiance is simple and no-frills, but that just adds to its charm — the focus is clearly on the food. Service is attentive and efficient, even when the restaurant gets busy, and the staff is great about making recommendations.“

“Super amazing experience ! Everything we got was delicious. The dumplings were outstanding. The soup and noodles were great but the best item was their orange chicken. Oh my god ! Far better than panda express. The flavor and texture of orange chicken was perfect. Overall it was one of the best chinese experience I've had in a while.“

“There are ample parking spaces around this restaurant. The pan fried daikon cake is very good, so is the spicy lo mien. We have also tried shumai, bean curd roll, and preserved egg and pork porridge, which are about average. The Portuguese egg tart is very flaky and tastes pretty good!“

“I always order take-out, so can’t really comment on the atmosphere. But the DIM SUM is great. All very tasty and good. Peking duck is also fantastic. It’s easy to order online for a set time to pick up, even a day ahead. You have to park in the structure, but they validate for pick-ups.

Vegetarian options: One in our household is vegetarian and she enjoys the shrimp and veg options (turnip cakes, garlic noodles, spicy shrimp noodles, shrimp dumplings, shrimp balls, cabbage, etc.“

“I don’t claim to be a connoisseur in Asian cuisine. I do like fresh, variety, spices, sauces and appreciate courteous efficient service. My second visit. Was not disappointed. The wait to be seated is long. Would not have waited but one person in our group was visiting from out of state and insisted.“

“We were in Anaheim for a Ducks game and decided we were craving dumplings. We came across Yum Dumpling and are so glad we did. From the moment we walked in, the restaurant felt cozy and welcoming, and the service was excellent.

Once the food arrived, it was clear we made the right choice. Everything was absolutely delicious. We ordered the Kung Pao chicken, house special chow mein, and the shrimp and pork spicy wontons each dish was packed with flavor and made with fresh, crunchy vegetables. The steamed pork bao dumplings were especially impressive: juicy, tender, and full of flavor.

To top it off, we had the passion fruit green tea, which was refreshing and the perfect complement to the meal. Overall, the food, service, and atmosphere were all outstanding. We’ll definitely be coming back next time we’re in the area. Highly recommend!“

“The fact that they are located at Disneyland, where families attend and that they do not have the ability to reserve for groups larger than 6 and make your group with children wait same day is ridiculous. This never happens anywhere on property in Orlando- should be looked into and fixed.“

“Delicioso 🤤, el restaurante favorito de toda la familia.“

“Absolutely delicious food and outstanding service!
From the moment we arrived, we felt very well taken care of. I asked the lady at the front desk if it was possible to have non-spicy food, not even pepper, and she was incredibly kind and accommodating. They immediately agreed to modify the recipe and prepared everything without any spicy ingredients, which I truly appreciated.
The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. You can tell they really care about their customers and are happy to adjust dishes to make everyone comfortable.
Prices are typical for Anaheim Hills, so nothing unexpected there.
One small note: on Sundays the restaurant is open from 11:00 am to 9:00 pm, and it looks like this might need to be updated on Google.
We will definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!“

“Food was great, service was excellent!“

“I still don't understand how a white man could open such a healthy and delicious Chinese restaurant! The flavours are so good, his dumplings are made of chicken, and although they are very delicately made, it's hard to tell they are made of chicken. The service is always warm and attentive, reflecting the excellent culture of the staff at this restaurant.“

“I love duck, chicken & all kind of dim sum, so when will you open this store at Riverside / Corona Co. > so I don't need drive far to Orange Co.“

“First visit with a friend who has been there multiple times and is one of her favorites. Ordered Walnut Shrimp, MaPo Tofu, Sautéed Eggplant, "A" Vegetable, Hot Chili Pepper Whole Fish. All dishes were delicious. My only disappointment was the amount of fish ratio to the price. Extensive menu and looking forward to returning to try other dishes.“

“kindness. Moved to Irvine from the San Gabriel area. In comparison, the food here is delicious and the price is very reasonable. It feels cheap and the food tastes delicious. Of course, it may be that I am too hungry. Overall, I am very satisfied with this meal. Good reviews. Will come again.“

“We’ve been going to Capital Seafood for MANY MANY YEARS now and just realized I haven’t made any reviews yet! Well, here it goes… we so love this place! We always go during dimsum hours and we love their dimsum choices! The foods are all amazing and first class!!! The service is even better! Our drinks are constantly filled and they always check if there’s anything else we need. Their manager will also go around and help serve! Eventhough we live an hr away from Irvine now, we still make sure we go to this place at least once a month! Excellent food and VIP service!“

“This establishment is known for it's excellent Asian cuisine, but horrible customer service. Some of us have chosen to endure it since the loss of Sam Woo. However, I think I've found the key to being treated, at least, decently. I took it upon myself to engage the aloof, borderline rude server. I asked his name, was very pleasant with him and asked his opinion regarding a couple of dishes, even though I was quite familiar with them. He offered advice. We engaged in a conversation. Then I said the magic words, "You know you have the BEST Chinese food in Irvine, right?" It was smooth sailing from there. While being ultra friendly is not a part of their server DNA, stroking the product ego didn't hurt. The best meal I've had there in 3 years.“

“I ate here and I I flew 2,500 miles from Orlando, FL to Westminster, CA on a business trip and after 2 delays at LAX I finally got home at 2AM and I just woke up and had to tell everyone if you're in town remember to stop by Tan Kim Su on the corner of Bolsa Ave and Ward St!

Seeing the large selection of Vietnamese, Chinese, and Korean restaurants in Westminster/Garden Grove is dizzying. In Orlando we're only a 3 mile strip. Over there from Brookhurst to Bolsa it seems every intersection has 4 corners and 4 strip malls to eat the 4 major Vietnamese categories: banh mi, banh cuon, pho, and ca phe. A lot of them are humble and low key. There is a low key mom and pop charm associated with eating the plain 2010s wood interior with a slightly sticky floor, mismatched ceiling panels, haphazardly painted ceiling speakers, dusty television sets and window frames that haven't been dusted in who knows how long.

You will find many of those places but you can just not find an experience like Tan Kim Su. Big, spacious. grand, white. Luxury. Amazing crab and lobster tank view.

The fried rice was amazingly crisp. The egg noodles were very fresh. It was very clean tasting compared to most places.

It was busy noisy and lively! I came specifically Sunday December 14 around 12:00pm in Cali time. There was a line out the door. I worked restaurants before the pandemic. Some people will down vote your restaurant both if they think you have too few customers and especially if you have a lot of customers! If the sight of a packed, noisy, and busy restaurant scares you more than an empty one, there is probably nothing I can say to convince you. But look at the pictures this place was packed and alive and people are out having the time of their life with the mountains of food on the tables. If you like piece and quiet, maybe not at the hour I went. Look at the line of the door. People want to be here. And I can see why. They certainly aren't in line to ask talk about their 401ks on a Sunday.

And to top it off the owner in red came by our table to make sure everything was going well and it was with our group and associates. I watched she was working there alongside the staff, bussing, moving plates, even serving. She was energetic and charming as expected of any successful hospitality business owner. I once read in a book: people who treat you like they were expecting you/ready for you/waiting for you are the people you want to be around.

I could go on but I won't. But I could. Let me just end with this, if you are in the Westminster area on weekend travel like myself, time and food are precious. Each day you are probably not going to visit more than 3 restaurants (except many dessert places like che or ice cream or smoothie). If you are going to eat somewhere, make it worth it. It's not even that far from Phuoc Loc Tho and instead of eating street food in a gloomy tiny food court with weird drifters talking to themselves you could be enjoying life to its fullest.

Thank you for ending off our now memorable business trip to Westminster, Tan Kim Su Seafood Restaurant located on 10530 Bolsa Ave, Westminster, CA 92683.“
