Dim Sum Restaurant · 18 tips and reviews
Mehan Jayasuriya: this is the only dim sum joint i've found in portland that consistently approaches the quality of good NYC/SF/LA dim sum. i'm also obsessed with their crab e-fu noodles and snow pea shoots with garlic
Eater: This dim sum and seafood house is the cheapest ticket to Hong Kong. They’ve got classic and hard-to-find Chinese seafood preparations that usually involve batter and hot oil. [Eater 38 Member]
Diana Lien: Dimsum any day of the week. Weekends are busy, but you're usually seated quickly. Great selection!
