Dimsum Garden

I visited this dim sum spot years ago and wasn’t very impressed at the time. But coming back with friends this time, we absolutely loved it. My favorite was the steamed egg custard and the skin on the black truffle mushroom dumpling was incredible so tender and chewy.

We recently stopped in for dinner with another couple. It was a little later than usual so most of the crowd was gone. We ordered shrimp shumai, truffle and mushroom dumplings, lobster special platter and sliced chicken with baby eggplant. All items were tasty and well cooked. We all had a good time and enjoyed the dinner. Waiter was very nice and attentive. We stopped in New Years Eve for our final lunch of 2025. We both had the lunch specials. Spring roll and ball, hot sour soup to start. Then one chicken with baby eggplant and one kung pao chicken. All very tasty. We came in late again but this time they were very busy. Still service was excellent.

Have had dimsum in several different places in NYC. For me, Dimsum garden at 2nd ave x 56th st location is the best! Of course, all kinds of dimsum are delicious, and other foods such as noodles and rice are also very tasty. 😋

The food was tasty and there were lots of choices. I enjoyed everything we ordered. The restroom was well maintained. The people who worked there were professional. It could get crowded. There was a wait when we were leaving (around 2PM)

All Dim sum dishes we ordered were very good and fresh(they have big shrimps and a lot of meat, not just thick shells). Service was okay. The restaurant smells funny, not sure why. They need to use some extra air filter system to filter some smell out. However the food was good and after sitting there for a while, you got used to the smell.
