Dim Sum, Chinese, Best Of

All-day dim sum options are still few and far between around metro Phoenix, which is why Dim Sum Cafe is such a treat. This friendly strip-mall restaurant offers top-notch dim sum specialties like shumai pork dumplings, steamed barbecue pork buns, hand-rolled scallion pancakes, braised chicken feet, and juicy, made-to-order xiao long bao, or Shanghainese soup dumplings. If you want to augment your meal with something more than dim sum dishes, the restaurant also offers a wide-ranging menu of traditional Chinese dishes, with an emphasis on Shanghainese and Sichuan specialties. From the non-dim sum side of the menu, don't miss the terrific stir-fried pork intestines.

Great Wall Cuisine

Chinese, Dim Sum, Asian, Recommended, Best Of, Readers' Choice

Chinese food in the West Valley peaks with Great Wall Cuisine, a spacious dim sum hall where small tins of food trundle around on carts and every meal feels like an event. In the classic dim sum tradition, the food is Cantonese. Diners point to carts for Cantonese staples like barbequed duck with crisp, lacquered skin and tender flesh, or tangles of chewy lo mein with translucent fried onion and cabbage. Or dumplings. Or fried wontons. Midday on weekends, likeminded hungry people clog the entrance, waiting for their numbers to be called so they can be seated. Service is a joyous cacophony, a controlled chaos of eager diners pointing at abalone shells and fried oysters and melon-stuffed biscuits, of tong-bearing servers trying to find real estate on crowded, dimly lit tables. Dim sum in the Valley doesn’t get better.

One of the few places in the Valley where you can get dim sum, small Chinese appetizers that come to your table on an endless stream of carts. This place serves an outstanding variety that requires multiple visits. Look for the carts hauling scallop dumplings, fried eggplant, shrimp rice noodles and Chinese greens. Dim sum served daily until 3 p.m., when the regular menu kicks in.

Chinese, Dim Sum, Seafood, Recommended, Best Of

Phoenix Palace is a sea of eager faces, busy chopsticks, and whirling lazy susans bearing a smorgasbord of dumplings, meats, buns, and cakes. Located in the same Chandler plaza as Lee Lee Oriental Supermarket, the restaurant serves a full menu of both Mandarin and Cantonese cuisine, but it's dim sum that brings us back again and again.
