" Dim Sum King was a nice surprise! The location is perfect for a quick lunch, and the price of each item is unbeatable. I enjoyed the pork bun and egg tart, but wasn’t a huge fan of the turnip cake. The ambience can be noisy, but it's worth it for the food quality. Great spot that I will visit again when I'm back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dim Sum King holds a special place in my heart! Whenever I find myself in Seattle, I make it a point to stop by. The egg tarts are heaven, and the dumplings—oh my! They are fresh and truly showcase Cantonese flavors. Even if the service isn't always the warmest, the food more than makes up for it. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely fantastic experience! Dim Sum King is my new favorite place for dim sum in Seattle. The food was vibrant and fresh. I enjoyed the custard bun and egg tart very much. They do get quite busy, so it requires a bit of patience to place an order, but it's definitely worth it for the flavor! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes when I arrived at Dim Sum King, but I ended up feeling disappointed. The dim sum wasn't fresh, and the shrimp dumplings were bland. The service left much to be desired—staff seemed overwhelmed and not very attentive. However, the egg tarts saved the meal for me. While the prices are low, which is a plus, I don’t think I will be returning soon based on this experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wonderful dim sum to-go! I recommend the baked pork buns and custard buns; they are fantastic! I did feel rushed during my visit as the lines got long, but overall it was a pleasant experience. I'd definitely come back for the egg tarts—they're one of the best I've tried! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally tried Dim Sum King after hearing so much about it online. I ordered the custard buns and sweet sesame balls; both were delicious! The service was quick but felt rushed. While the seating was minimal, it added a cozy vibe. Perfect place for a quick delicious meal without spending a fortune. " (*Curated Review*)

" I am so glad I found Dim Sum King! The food is fresh and authentic, which you wouldn't expect from such an inexpensive spot. The shrimp dumplings were delightful, and I had a great experience overall! While the service could be friendly, I mainly come for the food. I love it here. " (*Curated Review*)
