I'll be making a trip to San Antonio this weekend. Does anybody know of a good Dim Sum place in San Antonio or Austin? There are NONE in DFW area. I want the best place, dont care how much. I just cant find any good Dim Sum in Texas ever since I came down from NY(except for this one place in Houston was pretty good). Please help me, I'm a fat kid that's been craving good Dim Sum for a really long time. LOL.

 

haha
in San Antonio and Austin, there is a restaurant name Golden Wok
as in San Antonio, it well-known to have dim sum there.
as in Austin, i dunno, since I know there should be more down there

don't expect anything close to dim sum in NY
my logic is, place with more azn, place with better dim sum
i still miss the dim sum from HK ever since I moved here.

 

8822 Wurzbach Rd, San Antonio, TX

This is the address, there are 2 Golden Wok in town, but only this one serve Dim Sum. Pushing cart during weekend and place order only during weekdays.

hope this help.

 

There is also Chef Chan Tea House. One of my Chinese friends loves this place.

I went that place once and that's it hehe.

Maybe they have a new dim sum cook now, i should go back and try again.

 

I am not a huge Dim Sum fan, so I can only go off what they say.

 

None??

Arc-en-ciel or Maxim's ?

 

Maybe as he said NONE "GOOD" dim sum place.

 

I would NOT recommend Golden Wok. Not authentic at all, and poor quality to boot. You're better off buying frozen dumplings from the grocery.

Definitely nothing compares to NY around here. Houston comes close.
In Austin though, I'd give Shanghai Dim Sum a try -- it's not too bad.

6718 Middle Fiskville Rd
Austin, TX 78754
Phone: (512) 458-8088

The only other place I might try is Marco Polo.

Again, none of these are comparable to NY, but they're not bad.

 

Did you talk about the Austin's or SA's GW?? but anyway, SA's is a bit better.

I would definitly try the Shanghai Dim Sum place you mention, hehe
thx for the info
