AweSum DimSum 612 8th Avenue, Manhattan, New York 10018

"I came here for lunch. Clean, efficient, and good dim sum. I like their simple ordering system. The sample platter has a satisfying variety of items if you want a little of various things. Food was fresh. Appreciate the soy sauce and sriracha packets inside the carryout bag. They have a decent amount of seating. I ended up eating inside due to the ample seating available. Thank you for great food and a seamless experience!"

"Do you like delicious dim sum AND you’re an introvert? Are you in a hurry and want streamlined dim sum without the fuss and communication barriers? Then this is the place for you! You order the dim sum at the kiosk screen, you get a buzzer to let you know when your food is ready, and you go pick up your order and sit down and enjoy the food in peace. The quality of the dim sum was great, I would even say it’s better than Nom Wah Tea Parlor in Chinatown. The place was clean, sleek, and modern. If you prefer the old school dim sum venues that’s loud and bustling with aunties pushing down the carts and people shouting over each other, then don’t go here. This is a great spot for travelers because it’s right across the street from the Port Authority. We will definitely check it out again once we’re back in town."

"They have self order there and then you can pay on the counter. After you done eating you just bring your tray back to the shelf. Clean and cute place. Dim sum is good. Buns are really good too. Not sure if they have AC. It’s just hot inside."

"I’ve had dim sum nearly my entire life as a weekly family tradition in the Boston area. We had it in the traditional manner with carts zooming around and the cart ladies shouting at you if you wanted what they had in their carts. Now, the shouting was due to the utter din in these restaurants. However, this place is not that at all. Instead you order at the counter then wait to pick up your food in a tray. What frankly surprised me was how fresh and hot the food was, and the generous portion sizes. The food really was comparable to the places I’ve been to closer to home in Boston. I really like the quick and easy way to order and receive the food. Whoever thought of this was quite clever. Also I appreciate not having to go to Chinatown (which was a 2 hour walk) for dim sum. I was definitely won over."

"Great place for a quick and delicious meal. The chicken feet were great, the noodle dish was amazing, the soup dumplings were delectable, and the crispy shrimp were perfectly crunchy and tasty. The shop was clean and the staff were friendly and polite. Easy to order from the kiosk too…with pictures!"
