Dim Sum Restaurants near Silver Spring, MD

“Our whole family has been coming here since they opened more than 30 years ago. It's menu is classic — always delicious. Plus the staff treat you like friends and offer super service. Huge portions so there's always some to take-home. We've never had a lesser experience here in all these decades. A truly home-style, welcoming place with tasty dishes.“

“食物新鲜 ，每个订单都是特别订做的。全手工制作的食品。“

“We loved this place! Lots of great dumpling options- we tried the chicken soup dumplings and the rainbow soup dumplings- which is one of each flavor- and we loved them all! Lots of flavor. We also tried the pork Bao and the crab now both of which were very tasty. Service was fast too“

“It was our second time here. We had dim sum both times. They have one the best dim sum food in Maryland, and it is available all day. You order off the menu instead of the push carts so you can be sure to get what you want. Service was prompt, restaurant was clean, and food quality and flavor were good. There were a couple of tables with older guests speaking Cantonese. It is how you know it is authentic. We will return and try other Cantonese and Hong Kong dishes in the menu.“

“We got lucky and had lunch here during a day of tourism. Inexpensive and great food and boba. The cook (who was the only one working there as you can order with the ipad) was nice and the place was clean and cozy. We went at an off-peak time so we were able to sit at the counter but I imagine that during lunch rush it must mostly be for takeout as there are few seats. Also I don't think they had a bathroom as I looked around for one and didn't see it. It wasn't an emergency situation though so did not ask to use one.“

“I recently visited Nanxiang Soup Dumpling and had a wonderful experience. The soup dumplings were delicious and full of flavor. I also want to give a special mention to, Zhi, who provided excellent service and gave me good suggestions when I order the food. He was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great dumplings!“

“Amazing food great bartender Oscar!!! A win is a win and i highly recommend!!! Ian the manager is a friend you didn’t know you would make!!“

“The first experience was great and I plan to come back and try more with my girlfriend the music is a great vibe along with the atmosphere in general is calm and not too much noise I definitely recommend this place be careful it can be pricey.“

“ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE!!! No I'm not employed here! I have to limit myself to once every other week. After being in the restaurant industry for 25 years I DEFINITELY respect this places consistency. Try it out.“

“So good! Loved everything and service was great“

“The food is excellent for the price, especially if you’re looking for authentic, no-frills Chinese cuisine. Service is acceptable but can be slow, and there’s often a line—though it’s generally worth the wait. Expect the straightforward Cantonese candor if you speak Chinese, but they are welcoming and accommodating to non-Chinese customers as well. The dining area is convenient and comfortable, with a cozy, Chinese cafeteria-style atmosphere (not a formal restaurant), which adds to the overall charm.

If you want, I can also make it sound more casual, more punchy, or more like a typical Yelp “Local Guide” review.“

“The rainbow soup dumplings were quite good—especially the shrimp and zucchini flavor, which stood out to me. They have more of a fusion twist compared to traditional soup dumplings. As for the red oil wontons, they were just okay. The flavor wasn’t really my preference, particularly the taste of the vegetables. Will not recommend.“

“Super friendly and super accommodating. This store is top notch. I’ve never done embroidery before and had no idea what to expect, but their products far exceeded whatever expectations I could’ve had. I am beyond pleased with how everything turned out and will definitely be bringing my future business back here. Thanks Gorman’s!“

“Excellent and very courteous service. The food was solidly delicious! Eggplant and tofu was delicious. Also tried my friend's rice with shrimp and scallops and noodles with peanut sauce. we shared our dishes and almost finished them .
We recommend it highly!“

“Lots of choices for lunch, drinks, and desserts. My Chicken Teriyaki ($16.95) was very tasty and a good value. Dessert was Hot Chocolate ($4.95) with a slice of Banana Nut Cake ($2.50). Prices are reasonable and service was quick. The only downside was that it was uncomfortably cold inside. Space heaters in the winter and fans in the summer might make dining there more pleasant. Conveniently located across the street from the Gallery Place Metro.“

“Peaking duck is top tier, I grew up eating this since I was a toddler so it’s always feels nostalgic sitting down and enjoying all their delicious meals. The garlic string bean’s always so crispy and packed with flavor. Simple I know but truly a must have for me along with with whole duck and crab fried rice. I drive from Pittsburgh once a month to get authentic Cantonese ✨“

“This was a first-time don't-know-what-to-do kind of visit. And I LOVE IT. There was quick, excellent service to match the flavorful options for entrees and sides. I've definitely been missing out on this "pearl" located only minutes from Arlington.“

“This is a decent spot if you’re desperately craving an Asian food fix or Cantonese dim sum. We went with the $38 buffet (Option A). The steamed dim sum like har gow was acceptable, the wonton soup was a bit bland, but the porridge was actually really good.

We also enjoyed the pork potstickers and the beef hor fun — those were definite highlights for us. Overall, we did enjoy the meal.

That said, it didn’t feel super value-for-money for the price. If we were to return, we’d probably go à la carte instead. Still, it’s a solid option when you really need that Asian / dim sum fix.“

“Delicious good food. The place fills up Jam packed“
