Singapore Dim Sum list
January 11, 2010 | 85 Comments

While we are at the topic of Best Dim Sum in Singapore, I thought it will be cool to have a list of dim sum restaurants in Singapore, so I dug out all the places that I have been to and called the other restaurants to compile this list.
I don’t really like to gorge myself silly on dim sum, so when it comes to ordering, I’d always prefer to go ala carte. But if you are in the mood for some dim sum buffet brunch; restaurants like Cherry Garden, Hai Tian Lo, Jade Fullerton, Jiang Nan Chun, Jing, Man Fu Yuan, and Yanting (ala carte) offer excellent dim sum buffets, albeit with a pricey bill. If you are craving for dim sum during dinner, Dim Joy will be a good place to check out.
My top three dim sum restaurants are: Yan Ting, Taste Paradise and Royal China.
Always give the restaurant a call to double confirm the pricing and make your reservation before you go. I have already done the hard part of calling all the restaurants for you, now there’s no excuse for not having your regular fix of dim sum!
Base on this list, you probably think that a) I went to a lot of restaurants for dim sum to be able to come out with a list of all the dim sum places in Singapore, and b) I love dim sum. Both are absolutely true.
Check out my list of the Best buffet in Singapore

[...] The list was compiled by Lady Ironchef (re: one of my favorite Singapore food blogs). Here’s the list. Enjoy! [...]
April 24th, 2010 @ 12:18 pm
LadyIronChef, what about:
Old Hong Kong Kitchen at Square 2
Lao Beijing @ Plaza Sing, Tiong Bahru, and Velocity (I think they serve dimsum)
Spring Court @ Upper Cross Street
Mouth Restaurant @ Chinatown, Toa Payoh
Xin Cuisine Chinese Restaurant @ Concorde Hotel
Szechuan Court & Kitchen @ Fairmount
Victoria Peak Chinese Restaurant @ Orchard Central
The Dragon Restaurant @ Depot Road
Ah Yat Seafood Restaurant @ UE Square
Grand Shanghai @ Grand Copthorne Hotel
Golden Peony Restaurant @ Conrad Hotel
Yeap Seng Food Stall @ Red Hill Market, Tiong Bahru Market
Bao Luo Wan Xiang Street @ Lau Pa Sat
Noble House @ UIC
Old Hong Kong Tea House @ Katong Village
Teochew City Restaurant @ Centrepoint
April 24th, 2010 @ 10:31 pm
Dracoholic: Wow dude, thanks for adding on to the list. Lao Beijing I’m not sure if it’s really dim sum, i know they serve snacks but not exactly the dim sum type if i am not wrong. Ah yes, i been to xin cuisine for dinner, forgot that they have dim sum too!
does szechuan court, victora peak, grand shanghai, noble house have dim sum? i think i called grand shanghai and they say no dim sum, need to double check again. thanks! : )
April 25th, 2010 @ 9:45 am
Hi, you should try
Tak Po
at 42-46 Smith Street, S058954.
Telp: 62263683
and thanks for your greats a-z list..
April 25th, 2010 @ 11:09 am
I know a long time ago Grand Shanghai and Szechuan Court had dimsum. Perhaps for Grand Shanghai it was when it was called another name.
Victoria Peak and Noble House definitely have dimsum. If you get to Hong Kong, you shoud go to the Victoria Peak at CITIC Tower and Sun Hung Kai Centre.
April 25th, 2010 @ 8:43 pm
any idea the restaurant at mecure hotel,marine parade has buffet served?
April 26th, 2010 @ 9:22 am
Diane: thanks for the heads-up!
dracoholic: Okay! give me a while, i will call all of them to verify and add it to my list : )
kelvin: You mean Jia wei restaurant at Grand Mercure right? Nope they do not have dim sum buffet. The buffet restaurant is Feast @ East, which serves international buffet
May 22nd, 2010 @ 3:46 pm
hi , i was wandering how would u rate summer palace of the regent?
May 31st, 2010 @ 11:10 am
gotta love ur lists!
Kam Boat still my fav tho, cos it’s non-fancy but hearty traditional HK dimsum.
i also love the old-cantonese-resto type of setting – very comforting, cos it reminds me of my childhood, eating out with my family. hehe.
June 2nd, 2010 @ 10:33 am
luis: my apologies for the late reply, must have somehow missed your comment. I haven’t been to the summer palace, but my friend has been raving about it so i will probably check it out soon! do let me know if u have any recommendations from the restaurant
daphne: thanks dear! check out yanting and taste paradise too okay, both are the best dim sum places in singapore!
July 7th, 2010 @ 8:34 pm
Thanks for the list. Absolutely adore dim sum so I think I will be referring to your list over and over again
July 28th, 2010 @ 12:46 pm
hey, u shd try Swee Choon Tim Sum Restaurant at Jln Besar! http://sweechoon.com/
July 29th, 2010 @ 12:33 am
hey, can i check if you had any experience with the Dim sum at Marina Mandarin. They seem have have a high tea buffet for a decent price, but not sure if it’s really nice?
July 31st, 2010 @ 12:48 pm
francis: No problem dude, glad the list is of help. I am trying to conquer this list too : )
jess: hahaha okie dokie, do they serve dim sum all day?
john: are you referring to peach blossom? nope haven been there before. yeah the pricing is decent for their buffet, but i am not really a big fan of dim sum buffet
August 1st, 2010 @ 12:15 am
hey thanks for the reply. Yes, it’s peach blossom/. Just wondering, I usually have my Dim Sum at imperial treasure. but my ala carte price there adds up to about the same as peach blossom buffet. So if it’s equally good, though i might as well go peach blossom. Looks pretty classy on the outside
August 6th, 2010 @ 12:46 am
John: I don’t really fancy dim sum buffet. But if you must have your buffet, i say go to Cherry Garden (48++) at Mandarin Oriental, or maybe the weekend dim sum brunch at Yanting (78++)
August 6th, 2010 @ 7:58 pm
hey, what about crystal jade golden palace at paragon??
August 7th, 2010 @ 3:21 am
Many thanks for the info
August 14th, 2010 @ 11:27 am
carene: i haven been there before! is it good?
john: no problem!
August 14th, 2010 @ 11:39 am
I love it! Their main menus are good too. But I judge a Dim sum place based on the staples of har gow and char siew puff and they totally take the cake (plus the toppings). Haaha.. Their har gow skin is thin with juicy fresh prawns and the char siew puff melts in ur mouth w v fragrant yummy char siew. I also like their ??? and roast pork! Hahaa.. My fave place.
August 19th, 2010 @ 11:56 pm
carene: now you really convinced me! i shall go there for dim sum one day! Soon I hope : )
October 19th, 2010 @ 9:40 am
Hi, thanks for the list! This is great! I will try Yanting this weekend. Is it pricey?
November 6th, 2010 @ 5:03 pm
You have to go try the dim sum at Victoria Peak @ Orchard Central, it’s on the 11th floor. They serve dim sun only in the mornings: 11:30pm to 2:30pm.
January 17th, 2011 @ 10:43 pm
Hey! Thanks so much for the list! Looks so tempting! I trust your taste! What would you recommend for smthing say like dim sum lunch buffet max budget $30? The best you think!
January 17th, 2011 @ 11:06 pm
Priscilla: If your budget is 30 bucks, maybe you can check out Pine Court at Meritus Mandarin, or for weekend high tea dim sum buffet, there’s Min Jiang at Goodwood Park hotel.
The best dim sum buffets are probably cherry garden, and Yanting, but they are much more expensive.
January 18th, 2011 @ 7:02 pm
thanks! youre the best!
March 2nd, 2011 @ 8:06 pm
so sorry ironladychef! what about something around $50? thanks! sorry again!
March 2nd, 2011 @ 10:22 pm
Pris: If you have budget of $50/head, try cherry garden weekend dim sum brunch : )

March 4th, 2011 @ 12:17 pm
Just a quick update on the dim sum listing.
As I’m planning to look for a dim sum buffet lunch today with my cols, i tried gng thru the list & call up to make booking. Then I noticed both Orient Ocean @ Miramar & River City @ Excelsior had close down.
March 5th, 2011 @ 11:28 am
hihi, would like to suggest another place which I went but not found on the list – Xin Cuisine at Holiday Inn Atrium. I find the dim sum quite good though a tad pricey.
March 12th, 2011 @ 8:12 am
You have been so helpful
could u recommend weekday dim sum for 10 pple @$30 each ? Thanks
March 12th, 2011 @ 10:44 am
Alice: You can try out taste paradise at Ion Orchard, it’s one of my favourite place for good dim sum in Singapore
April 8th, 2011 @ 8:16 am
Hi,
I think of going to taste paradise to have dim sum^^ may I know the time available for dim sum is it still the same as above stated on weekend ?
Thanks
April 8th, 2011 @ 9:35 am
Alicia: Give them a call to check the timing, and make a reservation too.
April 10th, 2011 @ 1:48 am
I think you missed out Xin Cuisine @ Holiday Inn Atrium.
April 10th, 2011 @ 3:43 pm

April 13th, 2011 @ 6:28 pm

April 13th, 2011 @ 10:34 pm

May 29th, 2011 @ 4:23 pm
belinda: for dim sum buffet, i’ll go to cherry garden (48++)! it’s one of the best dim sum places in Singapore. If you have a higher budget, yanting weekend dim sum buffet is definitely the one : )
June 4th, 2011 @ 9:42 pm

June 14th, 2011 @ 7:45 pm

June 14th, 2011 @ 10:43 pm

June 15th, 2011 @ 10:43 am

Hi,
Really thankful for coming up with this list of dim sum places. Every time when I think of dim sum, I’ll think of your website.
Just to check with you…
I tried looking for River City & Orient Ocean Restaurant but I can’t find their websites and from some online scources, they seemed to be no longer operating. Is it true?
As for DragonGate restaurant, are they still selling dim sum? their website didn’t seemed to show they have dim sum available.

Sherly: Did you walk past the place? I’m not sure if they are still there, maybe you can share with us after you find out?
Miko: Hello, I haven been to both restaurants for a while, so not exactly sure if they are still there. Why don’t you try to give them a call?

Hi ladyironchef,
do you have recommendations for baked char siew baos like they have at tim ho wan? i’m having super cravings haha
thank you for the dim sum list

Jin: Wah Lok has a baked char siew bao which is pretty good, but nothing like Tim Ho Wan’s of course. Otherwise, try the char siew sou at Yan ting or Paradise pavilion?

Thanks for your hard work.

I would like to recommend “Wo Peng Cuisine” at Furama Hotel 3rd floor located in ChinaTown. You will be surprised about the great taste of roasted Siew Mai, Prawn Dumpling, Wanton Soup, etc.

Hi, i would like to ask, after all this time, is taste paradise, yan ting and royal china still your top three choices for the best dim sum in singapore or are there emerging competitors that is worth a try? (:
I’m looking for a dim-sum restaurant because the ones we’ve been to always disappoint :/
January 31st, 2012 @ 8:07 am
@Mil Yes those three are still my favourite dim sum places, but I’d suggest paradise pavilion over taste paradise. (Both of them are under the same group.)

Thank you, your list of sharing was an insight, while I’m searching for early morning dim sum hidout reseach. Meanwhile, here to share with u, Tak Po Dim Sum @42-46 Smith Street, Singapore. Their queue starts strangely perpendicular to the walkway, in front of the cashier counter though…

Hi, what would you recommend for dim sum dinner on sun night?
April 27th, 2012 @ 12:12 am
Try Park Palace at Grand Park City Hall & give your review on it!
April 27th, 2012 @ 12:02 pm
Hello which one win your vote for Dim Sum other than your fav 3…Hua Ting, Majestic Restaurant & Li Bai. Majestic Restaurant has limited variety even on weekend. Any other recommendation?
April 27th, 2012 @ 1:04 pm
@cheewee Other than my three favourite restaurants – Yan Ting, Paradise Pavilion, and Royal China – I would also recommend Cherry Garden and Crystal Jade Golden Palace. Hua Ting is not too bad, but I haven’t been there for a long time, so I am not sure if it’s still as good.
April 28th, 2012 @ 3:46 pm
Is River City at Excelsior ShoppingI centre still operating? The nbr never seemed able to get through?
May 1st, 2012 @ 6:53 pm
