Step into Lin Heung Tea House, a nostalgic 104-year-old spot serving up traditional Cantonese dim sum, vibrant atmosphere, and friendly service, where flavors sing and vintage trolleys roll.
"Famous for its classic trolley action and traditional dim sum." - Jake Emen
"You might have encountered Lin Heung Tea House if you have researched a bit about dim sum places in Hong Kong. Marking its 107th anniversary this year, Lin Heung is one of the few traditional Chinese restaurants with its own deli and bakery. The menu is a simple assortment of homestyle Guizhou dishes showing you a taste of old Hong Kong." - Beryl Kwan
"Despite the name, you’re not coming to Lin Heung for the tea (although you’ll probably ending up drinking it) - you’re here for the dim sum. Lin Heung is as old-school as things get. Don’t plan on just sitting at your table waiting for the trolley to come around to you - this is a dim sum death match, where you’ll be elbowing seniors out of the way to grab what you want and take it back to your table. This may not be the best dim sum in the city, but it is one of the best experiences." - jess basser sanders
"Dim Sum Delight The Lin Heung Tea House on Wellington Street has remained authentic in terms of both décor and recipes since opening in 1920. As the name “dim sum” implies, a table full of food shared in good company will “touch the heart.” This Cantonese specialty is served in bite-sized pieces so you can try many dishes in one sitting, including piping-hot bamboo steamers full of “har gow” shrimp dumplings, "siu mai" pork dumplings, and even chicken’s feet. The speedy patron turnover here means you’ll need to rinse your own utensils at table table with the hot water that's provided, but that's just part of the whole memorable experience of dining at this Hong Kong institution."
