Dim Sum Restaurants near Fort Lee, NJ

“We ordered like 5 or 6 things. Everything was very good to excellent. Essentially the same quality as Soup Dumpling plus, a smaller menu/seating, but nowhere near the same crowd. Service is very good, we love the manager! You cant find better soup dumplings than here in this area without having to wait. Everything all homemade and legit authentic. Their spicy szechuan dumplings are the best you can find in NJ and they offer rare and delicious sauteed snow pea leaves and watercress... Their crab/pork soup dumplings are slighty larger but have a thin chewy wrapper, lots of broth - are phenomenal.“

“Very nice I enjoyed the food“

“Tasty food with superb prices as well as attentive, friendly service. delectable soup dumplings with juicy tender meat wrapped in a chewy doughy wrapper are so appetizing.... I also love the location of the restaurant.“

“Shockingly good dim sum. Very authentic and better than most other dim sum places I have been in Manhattan. The regular dishes are also very good and priced reasonably. Service is quick and attentive, and the servers speak both Cantonese and Mandarin. Definitely my new go to place for Cantonese food in the neighborhood.“

“Delicious food! Everything was very fresh.“

“The food is delicious and great customer service. Will come again?“

“Grateful for a decent Chinese restaurant that is clean and elegantly decorated. Tofu and chicken dish were very good. The beef stew was more of a beef soup and on the oilier side so wasn’t our favourite. Dumplings were pretty good. Would definitely return and recommend.“

“Got the brand sampler. A meal for $19.60.
Here’s what I thought of each item
Har gow / shrimp siu mai - 3/5, hard to get wrong, just didn’t love it, even with the soy sauce.
Chicken siu mai - 5/5, was my favorite
Sticky rice wrap - 1/5, mushroom and sticky rice was not my favorite
BBQ pork bun - 1/5, wasn’t my thing
Crispy shrimp roll - 4/5, pretty good“

“Dongpo pork is a must try, it is melt in your mouth! Live music, lively atmosphere and good service. My favorited though was the cucumber salad, so simple yet so refreshing and savory at the same time. Definitely recommend, high quality Asian food.“

“While in Chinatown, we found this small, charming restaurant with excellent ratings, so we decided to give it a try. The place was packed, and although we wanted a booth, we couldn’t sit there since we were only two people. The service wasn’t the friendliest, possibly due to a language barrier, but the food made up for it.

I’m not usually a fan of Chinese food, but my boyfriend is, and I’m glad we stayed—the food was delicious! The menu had photos and numbered items, making it easy to order. I’ve included photos of what we tried. Highly recommended if you’re in Chinatown!“

“Great experience from start to finish! The food was fresh and full of flavor, and everything we ordered was cooked perfectly. The staff was welcoming and attentive, and the atmosphere was clean and comfortable. You can really tell they care about quality. Definitely coming back again soon!“

“Absolutely my favorite restaurant now! Hubby and I have been three times and each time has been amazing! The decor and artwork inside is beautiful and the food is incredibly delicious! Definitely try the "Kung Pao Shrimp" - your taste buds will go wild! and the "Crispy Skin Chicken"...oh my God, the best! Also try their cocktail called "West Lake Potion" - totally different than any other cocktail with an interestingly good taste ??. On our last visit, we were served complimentary dishes: Vegetable Spring Rolls and I believe some type of Zucchini with a mouth-watering glaze! Our waitress Estefanie (sorry if I misspelled) has been our waitress each time and she's super nice along with all the other staff. Bathrooms are clean and each stall has its own private door with a sink inside. Surprisingly, we never had a problem finding parking. Five stars all the way!“

This place has A.C. amazing after walking around all day sightseeing.
Food was delicious especially the Szechuan spicy chicken, fyi doesn't come in a sauce. Scallion pancake was very tasty, as was the chicken soup dumplings. Definitely recommend this place.“

“Authentic Cantonese cuisine. I was brought up in Guangzhou and these dishes here are the same delicious as the ones I had back in Guangzhou.“

“If you want to sit in a very crowded place, this is the place to go. The food was fine. They messed up our order and acted like they were upset that we said anything but the food is good.“

“😍My very first time here. I was served by Jason, food captain. I guess I was spoiled by his hospitality because I tell you, WHEN I return, if I not being served by him, I'm not going. Every now and again you come across a server who truly enjoys making people fell comfortable, that's Jason, in a nutshell. The food was extraordinary, complimented by spectacular recommendations and hospitality!!!!“

“Food, service & atmosphere was top notch. Highly recommend! 5⭐️“

“All day dim sum & Cantonese cuisine. 🥡🥢“

“Popped in here during a summer rain storm in the city and grabbed some happy hour beers and bites. The rest of the menu and food on others’ tables looked great but we got some dumplings, hot sour soup, and spring roles. Quite good hit the spot while waiting out the rain.“

“Oh man this steamed rice rolls where somebody and chewy and just flavor a bunch of flavor.“

“Few restaurants in town can rival what happens here. The menu items delivered pure satisfaction. Excellent staff performance with delicious food at fair prices. Staff members are quick yet never rushed. The workers here show professionalism.“

“Tried this place for the first time recently, and was impressed. Portions were just right. Good variety of items,and they were delicious!“

“Food and service is amazing!“

“This is the best sushi place in LIC. when you walk in the workers and chefs are welcoming, attentive and super friendly. The miso soup tastes fresh and coconut curry was great! The salmon lovers sushi and sashimi was delicious ad so were the specialty rolls! will eat again!!“

“This is a lovely restaurant..we were the only ones dining there at 4pm on a Thursday, but my oh my were our dishes a gastronome's delight...the garlic chili noodles, mapo tofu, and dry pot beef were indescribably delicious. The young man who served us was also behind the register and he never returned to ask whether we needed anything...BUT he quickly came to our table when I got his attention. He graciously packed my leftovers for carryout after misunderstanding and placing more fire in the table top stove underneath my dry pot beef. I would definitely return to Baodega to try some other dishes!“

“Great experience, great food, great hospitality“

“Food is excellent! Service is great.“

“Very nice, good food, good service.“

“The dim sum here is seriously on another level, a total game-changer for my taste buds. The flavors are incredibly vibrant, making each bite an exciting experience. I can't get enough of the savory dumplings, they are my absolute favorite. The chefs clearly know what they're doing, crafting each dish with passion and precision. The textures are spot on, creating a perfect harmony of soft and crunchy. It's the kind of place where you want to order one of everything on the menu. The atmosphere is super inviting and the service is always top-notch, which is a big plus. I highly recommend visiting this wonderful establishment whenever you get the chance.“

“Great service, food, and thoughtful cocktails. What more can you ask for in FiDi?“

“Everything we ordered was very good. You don't have to trek down to flushing our Chinatown to have a great Chinese meal. My brother who is very particular with food was also pleased with the taste especially the salt and pepper calamari. We were super early for our reservations but they were kind enough to accommodate us. The place was clean except for the restroom. But that's not going to deter me from giving them a 5 star review. Well done!“

“This shop has gradually grown in size. The cakes here are really delicious. I have been here several times and bought more than 30 dollars of desserts every time. Now they also add milk tea, which is really delicious. There are also meals Yes, but I haven’t tried it. I will try it again when I have time.“

“The dumplings are as good here as China Town. Bring 3-4 people and eat them all! I say at the bar and had Soup Dumplings, Shumai and Steamed Rice Roll with BBQ Pork… it’s like a Pork Bun without the Calories! Afternoon Happy Hour large Saki 1/2 price!!! If you’re in Gramacy, you don’t need to take the trip to China Town for excellent Dim Sum. Additionally, they have a Japanese Hibachi Table upstairs.“

“This place has the best, most authentic wontons I've ever had outside of Shanghai. Both the small and large wontons are delicious. Every time I go I get the large wontons to eat and a frozen pack to go. They have a delicious lion's head meatball too. I'd go daily if I lived nearby.“

“Enjoyed on a hot summers day. Give it a go. You will not be disappointed“

“I can say that is alternative to Golden Unicorn, just down the same street end of the block. Food is really good and could be better, and service is at best in a very busy place. The Price is very reasonable and overall it’s good x2. Will come again with pics to prove.“

“Din Tai Fung has been a long-time favorite of mine, and I’ve visited their locations across Asia more times than I can count. So, I was really looking forward to the opening of this NYC location. It took some time, but as soon as I walked in, I could see why. This isn’t like the more casual branches I’m used to – they’ve gone all out, creating a stunning space that’s perfect for a special night out. Though it’s a large venue, it feels intimate, and the table arrangement makes conversations easy. Service was excellent; our waiter was excited to introduce us to the restaurant and stayed attentive throughout the meal.

Now, the food! We tried two varieties of their signature xiaolongbao – the traditional pork and the pork and crab. Both were superb and just as good as what you’d find in Asia. The paper-thin wrappers are some of the best I’ve had outside of the Pacific, with great flavor and delicious soup inside. The pork chop fried rice was also outstanding – tender, juicy pork served over perfectly cooked fried rice. We also enjoyed the seaweed and tofu salad, which was a great starter. I did miss the wild vegetable tofu and sesame oil salad I’ve had in Asia, but I imagine it might be due to ingredient availability here. Prices are a bit higher than their Asian branches, but for me, the atmosphere and quality were worth it. I’ll definitely be back.

Note: Unlike other locations, this one is reservation-only.“

“The manager is very helpful, thoughtful and professional. I order one for one chicken rice and mistakenly thought it was a char siew rice, the manager call making sure I know is chicken rice and I told him I thought is char siew rice, he professionally solve the problem by giving me one of each. Thank you both chicken and char siew is delicious and served with pineapple and cucumber with ginger rice. This is a take out shop by uber eats, lookout for Brooklyn dim sum. You won't. Regret. Good portion, Tasty food and professional friendly staff“

“The food is very good at this place A very quick easy meal“

“Authentic Cantonese cuisine. I was brought up in Guangzhou and these dishes here are the same delicious as the ones I had back in Guangzhou.“

“Great food, everything it’s delicious !!!“

“Delicious, well executed dishes. Had the cilantro beef stir fry (ordered extra spicy - and it was! 🤗), and the black mountain ramen - both were excellent. You self order at the kiosk, which worked great, and the food came out promptly. Highly recommend!“

“Very good food helpful and very good service“

“Today, I had breakfast with my parents. A friend recommended this restaurant. I have to say that the decoration of this restaurant is very nice, the atmosphere is great, and the food is delicious. Especially the Shanghai Wonton Soup and the Dried Noodles with Soy Sauce. The waiters were very enthusiastic and the dishes were served quickly. I will bring my friends here again next time.“

“Enjoyed on a hot summers day. Give it a go. You will not be disappointed“

“NYC typically rivals the Chinese food you can find in the Bay Area and Hupo certainly helps that case. Focusing on Sichuan style cuisine, Hupo has a wide array of entrees and bites that will leave you full and wanting to come back for more. They certainly do deserve their Bib Gourmand. We had a reservation for 5 set for dinner and were glad we did so as the place was very busy when we arrived. The interior is clean and simple with no frills. Once seated we were informed that they only have digital menus through a QR code which was a bit difficult to navigate with 2 out of the 5 of us being older and not as tech savvy but we figured it out anyways.

We ordered a few different entrees and split them family style so we’ll go over them generally. Side note: although many of the dishes are noted as being spicy you can request that they be made without any spice. For dim sum/appetizers we ordered the scallion pancakes and pork soup dumplings. The scallion pancakes were okay, nothing special about them but the pork soup dumplings were a bit better with a tasty broth inside and nice chewy dumplings. For entrees we got duck fried rice, braised beef noodle soup, beef with broccoli, and dan dan noodles.

The duck fried rice was very good. Many places opt to use day-old rice for fried rice and you can often tell by the texture, but if they do that here then we were fooled because the rice tastes fresh and the duck was perfect. The braised beef noodle soup was also good, not the best we’ve had, but still good with the beef having a nice texture and the broth being rich. The beef with broccoli was great, the beef velvetized and delicious, the broccoli, well, broccoli. Lastly, the dan dan noodles were fantastic. The noodles were cooked perfect, the minced beef very delicious, and the bok choy tasty as well. As it is food wise, Hupo is a standout, particularly in the Western Queens area, the only knock being its service is a bit iffy with the workers being not too warm but for the meal you get, we’re willing to shut up and just eat. A fantastic restaurant all around!“

“Food is excellent! Service is great.“

“Wonderful food, friendly and helpful staff, great atmosphere and location. The best soup dumplings I’ve had in Manhattan.“

“Our server was absolutely outstanding . I wish I could remember her name. The food was the best meal we ate in New York. I ambiance was perfect. The entire group was impressed and are still talking about it a week later. Would recommend to anyone.“
