“We were there twice recently, one on March 2 and the other March 22. The first time was quite satisfying. Even though this restaurant was a relatively new addition to the mall, the food and service were on par with other locations such as Seattle, Bellevue and La Jolla. However, our later visit, with a 2x larger table than the first visit, seemed to show a service issue. The staff placed the ordered dishes wherever they wanted, which, at other DTF, they would ask where to place the dish on the table by asking the customers first. This caused unnecessary dish-passing immediately after an order was delivered. There was ample walking space surrounding our table, i.e., we were not in the side booth or window/corner tables. Food was consistently fantastic as high standard held by DTF.Kid-friendliness: Nice kid set“
“Nice atmosphere with good views of the river and fast service despite it being fairly busy. The soup dumplings were good, not the best I've ever had, but so far the best I've had in Portland. Oh, and the cucumber salad is the bomb!“
“The dim sum is good but like most dim sum restaurants, it can get really busy and service can get slow but that's understandable. Crowds stack up fast on weekends so try to get there early or be prepared to wait for a table. I'd say it's the best dim sum in town but it's not like there's too many dim sum options in Portland.“
“Went here on a Tuesday just about 10 minutes after opening hours. HK is most definitely that traditional dim sum restaurant place. I got seated quickly, and shortly after was greeted by one of the staff pushing the carts who offered me some food. I got the siu mai, har gow, and steamed BBQ pork buns. Everything tasted great, no complaints on the food. Also they have really great chili oil! One of the better tasting chili oils I've had at a dim sum restaurant. The ambience and the staff there were very welcoming. The way that families interacted with the staff lets you know that HK is that neighborhood spot that families go to often. Price, quantity, quality: 8/10 The food tasted great. I was a bit surprised that I ended up paying about just under $20 for 3 items. It's a bit pricy. Im not too sure if the tea I got was complimentary or if I got charged for it. The pricing would've made sense it if was charged. Overall not bad!“
“Wow!! We came here for Chinese New Year and had such a lovely experience. It’s family owned and operated, truly authentic and everything we ordered was delicious—the best Chinese food I’ve had! Soup dumplings, shumai, the saigon curry noodles, BBQ pork, sesame balls for dessert—we’ll be back soon!“
“I've been eating at Good World since they first opened in the old First Interstate Bank on Sandy Blvd between 106 and 107th next to Parkrose Hardware. I like the full menu and that you can tell them how you like your food prepared, so you can get it as spicy or mild as you desire on all the dishes. All the food here except a couple fish dishes are scratch made to order and look snd taste very good MOST of the time The ambiance is like most quick turnover no frills dining experiences. The size of the portions is still reasonable, and the food quality is still very good. It used to be great, authentic Chinese food. But with changes in cooks the food quality and portion sizes have both diminished a bit over time.The service is passable; they could stand improvement with attentiveness and fixing mistakes when an order comes out wrong, which isn't often; but when it is, they don't hustle and strive to make it right.I like to start with egg flower soup or hot and sour soup, both are good choices here. I also like their spring rolls and the variety of sauces they have for dipping. This is not known as a Dim Sum restaurant, buy there is authentic dim sum service with a good selection of items, but higher than average prices at Good World.My favorite dishes at Good World are Mongolian Beef and Broccoli with Beef, both are excellent. The sweet and sour chicken or pork are also usually very good. Cashew Chicken is good but nothing special. General Tsao's Chicken is very good, perfectly spiced. They have a full bar but don't expect to get anything exotic or that requires a good mixologist.They do have Oregon Lottery in the bar if you are into slots while you waut or after dinner. There is a good full size pool table if you enjoy billiards. The bartender doubles as wait staff in the restaurant so you may have to wait fir service. Prices are competitive with other Chinese restaurants in the area e.g., the Ambassador.There is ample parking for dinner, but not always at lunch in the parking lot that is shared with several other businesses. Lunch prices and portions are reasonably adjusted downward and ate a good value.If you want a good, filling, tasty (and without MSG) Chinese meal that's scratch made from quality local sourced ingredients at a fair price check out Good World, you will be glad you did.Parking: Convenient PARKING can be difficult at lunch when they are busy. It's a shared lot with other businesses. Always plenty of parking after 5:30 when the other businesses sharing the lot are closed.Kid-friendliness: Kids are welcome. They have crayons. Tables are spaced appropriately to accommodate families with small children in bassinets and ample for other accommodations, including people with disabilities.“
“By default this is the best dim sum in Portland, after having picked up the remains of Wong's King (but not shedding the awards of the former building's inhabitant). The food is solid by my standard, but if you have Chinese cousins in Vancouver or LA, they'll turn up their noses and then gobble the food up just the same. Rest in peace Ocean City“
“Don't be scared by the exterior of the building, it's a gem inside. Ordered a whole roast pig for a family party at $10 a pound. You have to order it a week in advance but if it's close to a holiday even earlier is better. It was so good, and my family was so happy and honestly they are hard to please especially coming from California where they have tons of options. It was roasted to perfection and seasoned heavily so each piece had a ton of flavor. You have to pay a deposit for the wooden board/trough for the pig and it looks great for pictures! We decided to taste test first a few weeks in advance before committing to a whole pig and bought about a pound ($13 per pound). (We did a taste test at their competition and Best Taste blew it away) That same day we bought the taste test, we ended up picking up some dim sum to go with it. The dim sum has the key basics at a better price than others, it tasted fine...I wouldn't say it's anything to write home about.“
“Generally Chinese restaurant. They are ok. I like a Thai bubble tea. My son said Orange chicken is good, Tonkotsu ramen and vegetables noodles soup are okay. My Fung pao chicken is an average. But crews are kind and generous. I like they have vegan options.“
“OMG, this place was amazing. We went at lunchtime on Presidents Day, so I thought it was a little odd that the lunch specials were not available. That was okay, because the food was so fantastic. Wife had the basil chicken which was one of the best Chinese dishes ever. I had the Lamb with Green Onion, which was good, but I'd try something else next time. I rarely see Lamb on a Chinese menu, so I had to try it. We split some green the green tea. The service was fast and friendly, as were some patrons. A couple guys walked by and asked about the b=Basil Chicken, so we told them it was a must! Huge open space that is unexpected given the outside of the historic Louis Building, built in 1885. We are going back!!“
