MR. DIM SUM

"The newest addition to Southcenter’s growing restaurant lineup is an excellent choice when you need dumplings and buns in the South End. A must-order is the House Special BBQ Pork Bun, which could almost be a dessert. It's got an airy donut-like chew with a sugary crumble top and lots of saucy pork inside. And be sure to get the salt and pepper chicken wings hidden under a pile of crispy fried shallots and tender honey walnut prawns for sharing. While a couple of dishes miss the mark, you can find enough great stuff to have a very satisfying meal after a long day of shopping. Dim sum is served all day in the expansive dining room, but weekend mornings tend to get busy—stop by for a late lunch or early dinner to avoid a wait." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, gabe guarente, aimee rizzo, aimee rizzo, aimee rizzo, aimee rizzo, gabe guarente, aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, aimee rizzo, aimee rizzo, aimee rizzo, aimee rizzo, aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley

"Those in the South End (and anyone willing to travel) can now enjoy the delights at Mr. Dim Sum, a sibling restaurant to Hong Kong Bistro in the CID. Sandwiched between Gen Korean BBQ House and Marugame Udon as part of a new restaurant row at Southcenter Mall, Mr. Dim Sum is unique in that it serves dim sum all day. This means that the shrimp dumplings, rice rolls, chicken feet, barbecue pork pies, and custard buns are available into the evening, with increasingly younger diners dropping in as the day progresses." - Jay Friedman

"Need to fuel an early holiday shopping trip? (Look at you not procrastinating.) Mr. Dim Sum is Westfield Southcenter’s latest restaurant addition, bringing stuff like roast duck, shrimp fried noodles, and wonton soups to the mall. The food scene at Westfield continues to grow, with this dim sum spot joining the likes of Din Tai Fung and Shake Shack. We tried Mr. Dim Sum and added it to the Hit List. Read our thoughts here." - kayla sager riley, aimee rizzo, gabe guarente

"Southcenter's Mr. Dim Sum is an excellent choice when you need dumplings and buns in the South End. A must-order is the House Special BBQ Pork Bun, which could almost be a dessert. It's got an airy donut-like chew with a sugary crumble top and lots of saucy pork inside. And be sure to get the salt and pepper chicken wings hidden under a pile of crispy fried shallots and tender honey walnut prawns for sharing. While a couple of dishes miss the mark, like the oily black pepper short ribs, you can find enough great stuff to have a very satisfying meal after a long day of shopping. Dim sum is served all day in the expansive dining room, but weekend mornings tend to get busy—stop by for a late lunch or early dinner to avoid a wait. " - kayla sager riley, carlo mantuano
