Dim Sum Restaurants near Springfield, VA

“The Extra Spicy Dry Hot Pot is insanely good. I get one of these every single time I come to Hot Peppercorn, and it hits just right every single time. I prefer it with pork, but you can get it with any pritein you prefer.

The waiters are always extremely attentive and nice, the food always comes out in a timely fashion, and I feel my soul heal itself a bit every time I get the dry hot pot. Absolutely in my Top 3 favorite restaurants ever because of this.“

“We did one day DC trip and visited this Chinese restaurant for lunch. My dad ordered a spicy beef soup, my little one had buns, dumplings, and spring rolls, my husband ordered non-spicy beef soup, I had a spicy sesame noodles with sesame rolls. We all loved what we ordered. Those are tasty authentic Chinese food. I was very satisfied with my spicy sesame noodles. They are delicious! I am so glad we tried this place. We will come back again for sure. The place is small but welcoming, it has indoor and outdoor spaces for dining. The staff is very kind and friendly. Luckily we were there early, there was a line afterwards when we started eating.“

“This was a great authentic Cantonese restaurant. I have been a frequent visitor since their soft opening. It is a bit sad that they are slowly switching menu to accommodate broader tastes, e.g. by including American-Chinese food and adding Sichuan style dishes. This is understandable given the demographics of the neighborhood and the market demand, but I do notice that the quality fluctuates for some skill-sensitive Cantonese dishes (e.g. 干炒牛河). It is also disappointing that the chicken in 啫啫煲 has been replaced with boneless chicken, which again is understandable to accommodate customers who don't like bone-in chicken, but that's just not how this dish is supposed to be made.

On the flip side of the menu changes, I like that they have added the Typhoon-style Lobster and Peking duck (I don't actually know why in the US many Cantonese restaurant offer Peking duck; maybe as a simple variation of HK-style roast duck.).

Overall, I hope this restaurant will flourish while maintaining its authentic taste and high standards!“

“So good! Loved everything and service was great“

“Pork Soup dumplings were good. The scallion pancake was crispy. I forgot to take a picture because I was focused on enjoying the meal. I
wish there were more shrimp options but overall a good experience. I would like to come back to try other things from their menu“

“Food was excellent! We went on a Friday night and it wasn't very busy, but with a holiday weekend people may be out of town
Dishes were large, hot, and fresh. Only thing I wish was different was that there was an iPad for ordering. However, servers stopped by multiple times to check in.“

“We were so hungry we forgot to take pictures. I was hesitant at first but I’m glad we decided on this restaurant. Authentic Chinese food! We ordered 2 dim sum items and 2 entrees to share. Delicious! The beef crispy noodles is just what I remembered as a kid. You won’t be disappointed.“

“The food is very delicious the price is reasonable👍👍👍👍👍“

“Dim sum yum“

“We came into eat here by mistake- but it turned out to be a happy mistake! The service was exceptional. My water was never empty. The food came out very quickly! Which was great because we had three hungry kids. Atmosphere was lovely with all the colored lamps. The Singapore noodles and pan fried chicken dumplings were our favorite. Great little find!“

“Came here with a large party of 9, they luckily were able to seat us immediately since they just opened. Food and service was excellent 👍!! The chow fun without gravy was the table favorite. Everyone also loved the steam pork buns and dumplings✨️Great for those new to dim sum and those familiar to dim sum.“

“By far this is the best dim sum I’ve ever had. Obviously made from scratch and a variety that you don’t see at other places. The atmosphere is no thrills, but who cares when the staff is so attentive and the food knocks your socks off.
At most cart service dim sum you leave feeling dehydrated from all the soy sauce and msg. Not here.
Do yourself a favor…. eat here.“

“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.“
