In a nutshell; has one of the best egg tarts I've ever had in recent times, good food overall Parking is a pain though considering it is downtown area, they have a small lot for parking next to the building but I'm sure that may get filled up in busy times. The food, dim sum, and egg tarts were all great. Servers were all accommodating. Place has a lot of tables and can sit a number of parties. Designed like most dimsum places. Overall great experience.

Food is authentic and delicious. Price is reasonable. Interior is clean and cozy. If you like Cantonese dim sum, this is the place to go.

No yall aren’t getting it… this place is operating on another level. Beef chow fun is not to be messed with and these folks killed it. Pork dumps and shrimp dumps will have me coming back. And, FOR ME, the stroke of genius was the broccoli with oyster sauce. A favorite dish in general, but the broccoli leaves were especially saucy and delicious. You need to be eating here. Tea Cup Cafe… yeah, light the beam babes. It’s so good.

Tasty salt + pepper green beans with fried chiles. BBQ pork and orange chicken were decent. Jiaozi dough kind of thick but filling and sauce were nice. I ordered takeaway on a Thursday. I didn't get the $5.50 dim sum prices on any of the dishes. I wish they gave an itemized receipt. Maybe it's only dim sum if you eat-in? I'll try again next time before I make a final decision.

Overall, it was an amazing experience. The service is on point and the food is delicious. I want to order Rice Noodle but they only offer it on weekends. They also have lunch special for 12.99 which includes chicken fried rice, chow mein, soup of the day, one egg roll and the meal of your choice. We got Hunan Beef which is very promising. They have hot and sour soup for today. 8/10 for the soup as it’s a bit sour. The Xiao Long Bao (Shanghai Dumpling) and the Roasted Duck are my favorite. The dumplings are juicy and the skin is chewy. The roasted duck is on the sweeter side but we love it. The skin is super crispy and the meat is tender. We would definitely come again if we visit Sacramento in the future.

Had to stop in and get the steamed yellow cake! Haven't had it in years. Just as good as I remember. Also had some dim sum dishes. The picture is of half of what I ordered.

I would not have known tea cup cafe is a dim sum place if someone didn’t recommend it to me lol! It seems very authentic for the most part, everything was very tasty, and it was all super affordable too! We came in here like let’s go all in splurge for my bday dinner!! and left extremely full with just a $35 bill. It’s nice places like this still exist. Good asian food that isn’t painfully marked up. Great Soup dumplings, the largest I’ve ever seen. Good xiu mai and har gow. Nice and dense. Quality tasting. Okay spare rib with black bean.. Pretty awkward to eat because the meat does not come easily off the bone. For dessert, great Sesame balls, larger than normal. They come hot with a super crisp shell and a satisfying chewy texture inside, definitely try it if dining in! We wanted to try their egg tart but they didn’t have it that day, maybe next time! Lastly, the lobster turnovers. Really annoyed i fell for the review hype. I mean how can I resist when someone was even saying they drive from far away for this lol! It was our most expensive dish and the worst value in my opinion. Very deep fried. Took one bite. Luckily my partner finished the rest, but he agreed it was a regretful order. Dining in was pleasant, tables were a little close but lots of seating. There is one waiter guy. Classic authentic Asian service, efficient and not overly friendly haha just catch their attention if you need anything. You use an expo marker on their laminated menu to mark what dishes you want. This place is great. I liked journey to the dumpling a lot too but that place was like 11-14$ for each dish! Tea cup cafe is my dimsum go to for sure, I’d need a good reason to go somewhere else! Come over on weekdays for really good deals!

It's been a while since I've visited this establishment, they've apparently revamped their online ordering system. Ive always thought their food was good but the last time I was there it was only possible to call in a phone order. Now it's a lot more accurate with their online partner. It's much easier to customize your selections. I wish you could pay for the order online as well but right now you must pay by card at the restaurant. No matter. I had curry chicken, sesame chicken and stir fry ribeye steak strips with mushrooms and green beans. Also BBQ pork fried rice. My order customizations were accurately followed by the cooks and everything was great. I highly recommend Tea Cup Cafe.
