Lam Kwong Deli & Market

Very reliable and affordable Chinese food! If I lived nearby, I would go here almost everyday. I love supporting small businesses that provide good quality meals to the community Note: Cash only!

Food selection is great! Just be prepared, this place is popular and there may be a lot of people in line waiting for their turn. Just remember it's cash only!

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.

Great hole in the wall spot to try. Nice and friendly people. Definitely try the pork bao, dim sum, and the combo plates. I hate to admit it but I love the deep fried chicken! Try this place out once!

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

I have been coming here for a few years and their food never disappoints always fresh. I have tried baos in other places and Lam Kwong baos are the best, well everything is good here. They have a friendly customer service.

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.

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.
