Dim Sum Restaurants near Forest Hills, NY

“fast to order, simple menu, no fuss, a great spot for a quick bite at reasonable price! Got the mini pork soup dumplings (8pc), crab soup dumplings (6pc) and pan fried pork and shrimp dumplings, taste good and very standard. Everything comes small, very cute and bite-sized.“

“Food is excellent! Service is great.“

“Delicious food! Everything was very fresh.“

“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.“

“Really shockingly good Sichuan food. The mala flavor was really delightful, it was really pleasantly numbing and incredibly flavorful. We got the dry pot baby rib and kung pao chicken lunch specials and both were quite excellent. The kung pao chicken really stood out to me as being particularly flavorful and nicely spiced. The interior of the resturant was also gorgeous and not too busy during lunch hours.“

“Antidote was such a great spot to have dinner on my visit to NYC. The wait was not too long considering there were 7 people in my party. We had so many items off the menu and the staff was very attentive to allergies and other food preferences. The tea smocked duck was incredible, the cucumber was amazing, the wontons were delicious! Everyone loved their dish it was absolutely a great dinner. The only downside was that some of the fish dishes were made with tilapia which is not a fish preference for most of the friends I was with. I will definitely be back and I highly recommend this restaurant“

“This spot isn't in guidebooks yet. Employees are remarkably kind and accommodating, serving food rapidly. They serve excellent food at fair rates. The food quality showed in our completely empty plates. This spot provides a good environment.“

“Wonderful hidden gem. Food was amazing. Combination of classic old world with new world flare. Entire staff worked as a team. Presentation was lovely as well. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you for a lovely experience.“

“Had higher than normal expectations for this eatery given the high rating, and was not disappointed at all.

Pork over rice - amazing marinade and butter soft smoky tender meat. Maybe the best pork I’ve had in Manhattan. Five stars. The two diners at the neighboring table also had this.

Tonkotsu ramen - favorful. Loved the thin shredded gyu-style beef which was tender. Noodles were great.

Miso ramen - okay. Preferred the tonkotsu.

Dan dan noodles - okay.

Looks more like a takeout place than a restaurant, but there is table service. Waitstaff were quiet but helpful.

Prices were very reasonable considering it’s near Bryant Park / Time Square.

Not crowded on a Friday night.

I would definitely return!“

“😍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!!!!“

“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!!“

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

“Food was great, black truffle soup dumplings were bomb. Plus, it's super close to 1st and 14th so, it's a change of pace from all the empanadas I've eaten from the other place close by. The only thing I would like is a table if I wanted to invite a friend to partake in the food. But, for a quick bite before work?

It's perfect.

I'm gonna try to order ahead of time in the future to see how good is their to go food. No beers... 🥺

(5 dumplings for the soup dumplings order, I ate one for the review😋)“

“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.“

“Fan Szechuan Restaurant & Bar is a fantastic find on the Lower East Side! Authentic, bold Szechuan flavors in a sleek, modern space with great service.🔥

The sweet and sour crispy jumbo prawns are my absolute favorite — huge, perfectly crunchy, succulent, and tossed in the most addictive tangy-sweet sauce. Could eat them every visit!❤️

Other dishes we tried were spot-on, spicy and flavorful. Attentive staff and cool bar vibe too. Definitely coming back. Highly recommend! 🌶️🍤“

“Food is excellent! Service is great.“

“Great experience, great food, great hospitality“

“DAO Dim Sum & Chinese Cuisine delivers exactly what you want when you are craving authentic dim sum in New York. It checks every box.

The dim sum was excellent. Fresh, well prepared, and full of flavor. Each dish came out hot and properly timed. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in consistency and quality.

The wonton soup was equally strong. Clean, balanced broth with well-made wontons and great texture. Comforting without being heavy.

Service was fast and courteous. The staff was attentive, efficient, and genuinely pleasant. Food arrived quickly without feeling rushed.

The pricing is very reasonable, especially given the quality and portion sizes. Strong value across the board.

If you are looking for reliable, well-executed dim sum in New York, DAO is a solid choice. Professional operation, good people, great food. Five stars.“

“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 dinner for my family tonight at this gem - just five minutes walk from Grand Central station. Unpretentious, authentic dim sum and excellent main dishes with rice, noodles, vegetables and more. The desserts were amazing - especially the black sesame balls and the mochi. Very good service and ambience here - light and bright, wood throughout. Would definitely return.“

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

“Hands down probably the best Chinese food in the city. I could eat here everyday.“

“The food is consistently fresh and tasty. So happy to have an excellent Szechwan restaurant in a neighborhood where good Chinese cuisine is sorely lacking.“

“Delicious dim sum and pan fried flounder!“

“Highly recommend this place. It was delicious food ,Awesome Service definitely will be going back. 🙃“

“The food is great. We ordered wild yellow croaker and duck stew with sticky rice ball as dessert. The taste has no problem but the portion is small compared to the price. Two sticky rice balls for 14 dollars. The good point is that the jasmine rice is free.“

“Very good food and drinks 🍹“

“Food is excellent! Service is great.“

“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.“

“Good food and a nice atmosphere. I do wish the Szechuan food was a little more spicy, but the dishes we got, like Shrimp with silken tofu, Szechuan fish fillet with tofu, Dan Dan noodles, and Green Beans was very good. Prices are a little high and portions were small compared to Flushing, but the difference was not extravagant, and for three people we were able to be full for about $90 pre-tip, which is respectable.“

“I ordered kung pao tofu for takeout and was pretty satisfied. The service was pretty normal for a Chinese restaurant and the tofu was yummy. Lots of veggies and peanuts and just very satisfying. I would prefer the tofu a bit crispier for this dish. I would like to have tried the mapo tofu as well.“

“Owen and the staff were all fantastic. Patrick at the bar was very friendly and knowledgeable. I will definitely return each time I'm in NYC. Everything was amazing. Pork dumplings, chocolate dumplings with the sea salt foam, and their signature shochu sesame espresso martini are an absolute must. I'll be dreaming of them until next time.“

“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.“

“Highly recommended!! We had a wonderful experience here! Such an excellent dining experience—beautifully cooked dishes made with fresh, flavorful ingredients. The space is charming yet refined, ideal for an intimate date night or an elegant family gathering. Service was warm, polished, and attentive throughout. !“

“The boroughs aren’t for the faint of heart brothers! Leave it to the pros. There are many other cities to go to in New Jersey that are more rookie friendly. You don’t have to collect every dollar there is. Also, Tell your dispatch not to send you where you don’t wanna be. Not all money, is good money!“

“Great fresh noodles, good balance of ingredients, tasty soup base, efficient and friendly service.“

“I LOVE all of the vegan options here, this is one of my go-to places. I also ask for certain customisations and they're always accommodating. Definitely recommending to friends! My favorites are the baby bok choy, broccoli, and rice cake dish.“

“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.“

“We had a very pleasant experience on Sunday Feb 15 , 2 pm at Moon Kee. It was a party of 10 at one of the round tables, for a birthday. Some people were quite hungry, so we started ordering dim sum right away from the trolleys that were making the rounds. All of the dim sum dishes were excellent. The main dishes that came later were also on point: well cooked, tasty and quite large portions. Very few of us were able to finish our meals; many take-away containers were required. The staff kindly helped us serve out a birthday cake that we had brought in. My only small critique, which brought the atmosphere rating down to 4 stars, was that our table, which was the round one closest to the front door, would get blasted by a cold draft whenever the door opened. I recommend that they install some sort of windbreak entrance as you see at many restaurants.
Overall, a delightful experience, large quantities of delicious food at reasonable prices. Will definitely be going back, and will recommend to others.“

“I went here with my brother. I loved it. Tea, dumplings, dessert (a sweet rice soup (soup?)). It was all good. I didn’t get any duck. I’ll have to come back for that. Very reasonably priced.“

“Best First Date Place in NYC 🩷“

“Food is excellent! Service is great.“

“Had lunch here yesterday and loved it so much I came back today. As a truck driver we are limited to food options on the road for obvious reasons but I’ve been parked in the area and had the opportunity to venture for food. They do not speak English here but the ordering screen makes it a bit easier to see what you like and order directly on the screen.“

“Highly recommend this place. It was delicious food ,Awesome Service definitely will be going back. 🙃“

“Royal Queen Restaurant has been a cherished part of my family’s dining tradition for many years. From coming here with my parents years ago to now bringing my own baby niece, this place continues to be our top choice for authentic Chinese dim sum in NYC. The quality is consistently excellent—everything from the har gow to the siu mai is fresh, flavorful, and beautifully made. The menu offers a wide variety of dim sum and full entrees, so there’s always something for everyone. While the dim sum may be slightly more expensive than some of the nearby spots, the difference is well worth it. The atmosphere here is far more spacious and elegant, making it a much more comfortable setting for family gatherings compared to the tighter, noisier places in the area. It never feels rushed or overcrowded, which makes the overall experience more enjoyable. Another major plus is the two-hour free parking when you spend $100 or more—a lifesaver when you’re dining with a group like my family of five. It’s convenient, reliable, and takes the stress out of finding parking in Flushing. Whether you’re here for a casual lunch or a special occasion, Royal Queen consistently delivers.“

“Haven’t come here in a while. I ordered fried meat dumplings and soup dumplings to start my dinner. The dried dumplings came suspiciously fast, and I was right. They were precooked and kept heated. The dumpling itself was nice. The flavor was nice. It was the texture that was a bit off. The bottom was burnt but not crispy enough. A few of them were broken and the filling was visible.

The soup dumplings were okay. It was steaming hot. The wrapping was nicely done, but just a bit too thick to my liking. The flavors inside were a little bland. I didn’t like it with soy sauce, so I asked for vinegar, and it immediately made it better.

For main course, I got an orange beef. It was cooked very nicely. The beef was cut into bite size, and fried until they were golden and crispy. However, a few pieces were quite tough and hard to chew. The steamed broccoli was cooked perfectly! It was green and crunchy. It paired well with the dish. The rice was okay.

Overall, it was a nice meal. A little more expensive than I remembered, and the food quality was a little not as good as I remembered.“

“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.“
