Lam Kwong Deli & Market

Extremely nice lady behind the counter. Great siu mai. Noodles were good, lots of meat, just a little greasy. Nice zucchini. Fried egg roll had a sweet flavor, but super crunchy. I loved it. $10.25 for a big lunch today. I wish I could eat there at the table, but I went to the park on 8th Street and found a picnic table.

Their shop may be small, but the owners are friendly, and the food is absolutely delicious! I just wish they accepted at least a debit card, but unfortunately, they only take cash. My all time fav is the pork and shrimp siumai, 15$ or i think now 16/doz

Had this place "save" for awhile, finally decided to go. Came around 11am, there were only 2 customers in line. Place is pretty straight forward & small. There are some foods that already pre-made in the hot warmer. There were still some buns, siu mai & shrimp/pork ha gao left. Ordered half dozens of siu mai & ha gao. Beef chow fun (dry), fried rice over general chicken & steam rice with black bean zucchini chicken stir fry. After the order was done, realize it ●TAKE CASH ONLY!!!● 😟 Embarrassed had to tell them I will be back for my orders. Went to safeway on R street which it was only 4 minutes away. Got cashed pulled out. Came back & paid for my orders. They packed with lots of foods. Sui Mai & ha gao were huge. Ate 3 & I was already stuffs. Will come back again when it super early to try their buns. Don't forget to bring cash.

Love their sweet rice cake, a big piece only costs $1. They have multiple buns that tastes good! Love their hot dog bun and Bo Luo Bao. Very traditional Chinese dim sum place with variety choices of Chinese dishes to go.

The bows were amazing and the meat was perfectly seasoned. The beef chow fun on the other hand... not so fun. It lacked flavor and could have used some extra soy sauce or something. The bows and dim sum were pretty cheap though so if I came back I'd probably stick to those. Food: 7/10 Value: 7/10

First of all, this place is CASH only. They have no ATM. So be prepared. Also another thing to note is that even though the name of this place states it’s a market. Not so much now a days. They have a cold case of drinks and sell Chinese newspapers, that’s about the extent of their “market”. The focus is the deli… Chinese dim sum and hot food. They sell the classic Cantonese dim sum and old school Americanized Chinese hot lunch plates. I enjoy the dim sum and hot food. The place is not fancy, very simple setup. CASH only, just repeating that again because that is an important nugget of info. They open at 8 am. That is when I usually drop in. At that time, they are stocked with the baked bbq pork buns, cocktail buns, hot dog buns, har gow, and sui mai. The other dim sum trays will fill up for the day. At times, I luck out and they already have pork filled glutinous fried dumpling, sesame balls, egg custards, and fried chicken (thighs and drumsticks). Yup fried chicken… ohhh I luv me a breakfast of fried chicken. Mmm. I enjoy all their dim sum. Like I said, it’s classic Cantonese flavors.

Take out only Best place for fresh baked BBQ Beef Buns (Bao) that are made&baked daily on-site. Also great for take-out rice plate dishes like Curry Chicken, Ginger Beef Rice, and Spare Rib w/vegetable & Black bean sauce. Yummy.

We used to come here for dim sum a lots but not anymore. The taste was awful and the bao was ok. The skin was all watery and we had to throw away the whole order other than the pineapple bread. Do not recommend this location and will not be back again
