Chinees Cantonees restaurant Tai Wu

Tai Wu Chinese Restaurant – A Solid Spot for Authentic Chinese Cuisine Tai Wu in Rotterdam is a go-to for authentic Chinese dishes, and my visit there didn’t disappoint! The variety on the menu is impressive, catering to both traditional tastes and those looking for something more familiar. The portions are generous, making it great for sharing with a group. The food overall was flavorful, with the dim sum being a highlight for me—fresh, well-seasoned, and served quickly. However, some of the mains could have used a bit more seasoning to really make the flavors pop. The service was efficient, though it felt a bit rushed at times, especially during busy hours. The ambience is simple but welcoming, with a lively atmosphere that adds to the experience. It’s clear this spot is popular for good reason! While it’s not perfect, Tai Wu delivers on its promise of great Chinese food and is definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.

Very good canton food, especially the steamed dim sum. What we ordered, the tastes are almost same as they are in canton. Very happy and satisfied with the food.

In Christmas day, it was completely full of customers and the queue reached to the entrance. In the boxing day, there was vacancy and I was a walk-in customer(better have them called before you went to this restaurant). I ordered stir-fry beef rice noodle and salt pepper chicken meat balls. They both taste like Hong Kong food and are delicious. Service is satisfactory and like all other Chinese restaurants. Atmosphere is that all customers are talking around. If you want to taste Hong Kong restaurant, this is the one.

Yesterday we had dinner again here, the service is terrible. We waited very long time before we finally can order. The two ladies were very rude and unfriendly. It’s not the Tai Hu Ju which we used to know, much worse now. I don’t think we’ll come back again. — below the experience from last time Dishes are okay, but far from the level several years ago. I ordered the dish (bi feng tang chao xie) which I like the most. But they told me that they don’t even have it now. Then I ordered “bi feng tang zhong Xia “, it is tasteless. We ordered “hei Jiao niu liu”, but we got onion-beef. Luckily the taste is ok. The 4 dim sums are delicious. The restaurant is a bit over- crowded, the service is bad. They even forget one of our ordered dishes. And We asked for “ju Hua cha “, but what we got is “ mo li Hua cha “. The total experience is not as we expected.

Here’s your review: --- One of the most authentic Chinese restaurants we've visited in Europe—it truly felt like being back in China! The food was genuine and absolutely delicious. The service perfectly matched the atmosphere. We loved being there and enjoying such great cuisine!

Authentic and declicious dim sum! The price is fair too and I’d definitely recommend coming here

Delicious cantonees food in good atmosphere! We tasted the duck and it was really crunchy and tasty. The fried prawns was my favorite dish together with the dumplings. The service was a bit slowly. I recommend this restaurant if you visit Roterdam!

This is already for many years the best place in Rotterdam for eating Dim Sum. Be prepared and make a reservation. Especially in the weekend, this is an extremely popular place with a queue. The staff is friendly and efficient. It helps if you speak Chinese, but don't worry if you don't as it will not result in a bad experience. The menu has a version with pictures and doesn't look intimidating big, but all the nice things to have are there. The quality of food is very, very good! It is worth waiting for it. This is probably in the top 3 of dutch Cantonese restaurants, perhaps it is nr. 1! Many of the dim sum dishes are small, so it also easy to have a wide variety of flavors when you eat here alone of with the 2 of you. But with a little bigger company you have a fantastic palette of dishes at the table to choose from... The place is clean, also the toilets. It is not expensive, the value for money ratio is excellent.
