" Rainbow Dim Sum has quickly become a favorite of mine. The array of dumplings is fantastic! I was particularly taken with their shrimp dumplings; the shrimp within was sizeable and juicy. However, I found the staff a bit rushed and unfriendly—perhaps because it was quite busy during my last visit. Still, if you're craving authentic dim sum with a dash of nostalgia, this is the place to be. " (*Curated Review*)

" Rainbow Dim Sum was an exciting journey for my taste buds. Every dish I tried was bursting with flavor. The steamed dumplings were particularly noteworthy! The environment was cramped but comfortable. My only complaint is with the service; it felt like our server had too many tables to handle. Nevertheless, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place to my friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Rainbow Dim Sum was just okay. The food tasted good, but I found the choices somewhat limited compared to what I expected. I wish they had more varieties! On the positive side, the place is very affordable, but I feel it might need a bit more focus on improving variety and service. " (*Curated Review*)

" I genuinely enjoy this place. The dim sum has a lovely flavor profile which departs from the typical fast-food chain spots. The ambiance is decent, but they have room for improvement in service. I had to wait a little longer for my food. However, I would gladly come back for the quality and prices! " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed my meal here; the authenticity really is commendable, as were the prices. The atmosphere is cozy yet can feel a bit crowded. I do wish they managed their service better because it sometimes feels chaotic during peak hours. Nonetheless, I will continue to come back for my dim sum cravings! " (*Curated Review*)

" \2024's most dependable go-to for dim sum! The moment I step in, the array of flavors surrounds me. I love their bean curd and stuffed buns—like eating a piece of heaven! However, do brace yourself for the wait since it gets really busy during lunch hours. In the chaos, the service did lack a bit of attentiveness. But the food is worth every little inconvenience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I wasn't particularly thrilled with my last visit. The dim sum was below par compared to what I had before. The service was unhelpful, which really took away from my overall experience. On a positive note, the prices remain low, so perhaps I will return for another shot. But, I hope they improve their quality soon. " (*Curated Review*)
