Our take: Sum Dim Sum offers a generally strong dim sum experience, with several dishes consistently praised across reviews.
The XO fried carrot cake stands out as a signature item, noted for its flavour without being overly salty.
Other popular choices include the siew mai, xiao long bao, and blue pea hargow.
While some items like the crispy char siew bun and chee cheong fun receive mixed reviews, the overall consensus points to quality dim sum that justifies a slightly higher price point compared to some competitors.
We'd recommend making a reservation, especially during peak hours, as the venue can get busy.
Service is often highlighted for its efficiency and the staff's handling of queues.
It's a solid option for those seeking good dim sum without the extensive waits sometimes associated with other popular spots nearby.
A reliable choice for groups, given the accommodating staff.
