Seattle Just Got a Lot More Good Dim Sum - Eater Seattle

"Sun Sui Wah Seafood Restaurant, a popular Cantonese food destination with roots in Hong Kong that opened in Vancouver in 1988 (and later in Richmond), brought its mark of excellence to Bellevue. Typical of dim sum restaurants, diners can order baskets of buns and other dim sum items until 2:30 p.m., at which time the kitchen starts to turn its focus to the dinner menu, which includes Sun Sui Wah’s upscale squab, duck, and abalone platters. A Sun Sui Wah representative says the restaurant selected the Seattle area for expansion because of its proximity to their successful established market in the Vancouver area and because Seattle has a very strong Chinese community. The fact that there were three-hour waits for dim sum when Sun Sui Wah opened proved the owners were on to something." - Jay Friedman

The food came out hot and well-prepared. Everything was nicely seasoned—not bland like other dim sum spots. The crab claws were packed with real crab meat, which was a nice surprise. The flat rice noodles were probably the best I’ve had in Metro Van. Most of the dim sum dishes were solid, too, though I wasn’t really into their lotus leaf rice.

I use to really love this place, I think the quality and taste has gone down. Went for a huge party, food was salty,, chicken was dry, the king crab dish is not worth, the crab meat was soggy. Overall it’s just average, the service is also meh. The fish barely had meat and taste. Won’t be coming back.

We came to Sun Sui Wah in Richmond with high hopes. The food itself was decent. Nothing mind-blowing, but we ordered around $150 worth of dim sum and enjoyed some solid staples. That said, the service was ROUGH. We came as a group of 20-something-year-olds and felt judged from the moment we sat down, as if we couldn’t afford to be there. The server who processed our payment was impatient and dismissive for no reason. It honestly soured the whole experience. I get that places get busy, but there’s no excuse for treating paying customers like they’re an inconvenience. Not sure I’d return, and definitely wouldn’t bring friends or out-of-town guests here again.

Food is solid for dimsum. I wish they had different dishes other than the og dimsum ones (hargow/siumai) All the servers are very attentive, which is always very appreciated. Overall this place is one of my go-to restaurants for dimsum.

Went there for a dinner party. Food was really mediocre except the Deep Fried Chicken which was good. The restaurant atmosphere was not comfortable because it was the next room's karaoke noise that was too loud. Service was exceptional good and attentive.

Updated review. We come here quite often. Great Dim Sum! Great dinner menu as well. They sometimes prepare dishes that are not on the menu for us. Mostly fresh seafood. Staff has been there for a long long time. So they’re very knowledgeable. And therefore, makes good suggestions when you can’t decide on what to order. They keep changing up their dim sum menu, so it’s great there are new items to try. Never had a bad meal from this place. I think this location is better than the Vancouver location. The food is better. Parking is better. Staff are great at both tho. Highly recommend.

What a classic (Cantonese). Decades of business still stand and this tells you it's a good place to visit. We ordered a standard family combo 6. Paid extra for the duck yolk sauce to go with our dungeon crab. It's a must. What a fantastic condiment Deep fried pigeon and chicken. Marinated well. Perfectly prepared and not over cooked. Crunchy skin. Meat is tender and juicy Shrimp platter: shrimp is fresh, sweet and crisp. Broccoli is lack of wok infused flavor Sweat sour ribs: good balance sweat and sour. Right portion fat and meat on the ribs. Double fry make the batter harden and hold the sauce longer without soggy

Pretty good 👍 dim sum in Richmond area, can be an easy choice as the first meal when you arrive Vancouver, as it's quite close to the airport. Like their BBQ pork buns the most, even when you eat it cold, while the rest of their dim sum dishes are all good, there's room for improvement of their clay pot rice, as it was not cooked in the way the rice is clay pot-dry.
