The dim sum style of serving food by passing carts is not available at all hours of operation.
But it's worth going when they serve food by the carts!
The busiest time seems to be weekend brunch.
Expect to wait a bit for a table. But the food is all good & very filling.
Some items can be ordered by the menu, too.
Nothing beats nostalgia with dimsum carts! The dimsum ladies pushing the cart were super nice & friendly. 10/10 for service. I'd come back only for the dimsum cart. Food was average - the soup dumpling was cold & a lot of the items were overpriced.
I visited this restaurant after seeing some reviews & decided to give it a try. It has the typical ambiance of a Dim Sum spot, though it leaned heavily into common stereotypes. Unfortunately, the variety of Dim Sum was lacking, & the service left much to be desired. While our hostess was very kind & made us feel welcome, we were seated in a corner & waited over 30 minutes before anyone offered us water or checked in.
The selection was limited, & instead of pushing the carts around, they left them parked in the corner, so we had to keep asking for items. In the end, we only received five dishes before deciding to leave, as staples like chicken feet, shu mai, & hum bao were unavailable.
The only good things about the place was that the food is seasoned & it has flavor, & the egg tarts were good, the over service was sub par.
We decided to try this spot for dim sum in Montreal, as it seemed like a promising option. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. We were seated in a separate room where service was extremely slow, & the dim sum cart rarely came by. The food wasn't great either, it lacked flavor. For example, the pan-fried radish cake tasted like it had way too much flour, which threw off the texture & taste. Overall, we didn't feel well taken care of, so we paid the bill & left a 10% tip, which we felt was generous given the service. To our surprise, the server came over to count the money & told us the tip wasn't enough, which we found very rude. Given the level of service, we felt that 10% was more than fair.
Great restaurant for dim sum. Get ready for a wait, but once inside take a load off. Would recommend ordering some Chrysantheum tea & get your stamp card to order some goodies off their carts!
The Kim fung Restaurant has a not-so-good-but-energetic cart lady. She is also a scenery in the restaurant . The cart lady shouts & sells freshly cooked dishes, moving around the tables. She quickly & skillfully passes a few baskets of delicious dishes over the heads of the constant stream of diners. She also accurately stamps large, medium, small, & special dishes based on categories on the card paper with greasy hands. ( Sep 2024) Suggest to arrive there at 945am ,because the AC is getting colder & colder ,the food is more & more prepared. The Cantonese dimsun is ok , don't compare it with Vancouver,but still it is kind of comfort food for me.(Jun 2023)
Une des meilleures places au Quartier Chinois (Chinatown) où manger (喝茶) des "dim sum". Argent comptant ✓ ou carte de crédit acceptée ✓
Envie de manger authentique, typiquement chinois nous sommes allés dans le cartier chinois & après une brève visite de ce quartier mouvementé nous avons fait halte au KIM FUNG . Arrivé à l' accueil du restaurant, surprise...on aurait cru qu'ils allaient célébrer un mariage........tables & chaises toutes habillé de nape & de couvre chaise. L'hôtesse nous a accueilli & rassuré du fait que la présentation du restaurant est tel quel. En somme le KIM FUNG c'est un resto familial comme dans les endroits de beffet chinois, mais, sans la vue du buffet ou tu te sert toi même. Tu commandes & le tout arrive sur un chariot & déposé sur votre table. 👍 le service est excellent & rapide la nourriture est excellente, le goût, les saveurs tout y est de l'authenticité chinoise. J'ai commandé le Menu A pour 2 personnes & fait ajouter des rouleau végétarien ainsi que des Dumpling frit au porc. Quel Festin chaque plat fût un vrai délice pour les papilles. 👌👌👌👌👌 Félicitations au personnel du Kim Fung Nous avons apprécié ma convive & moi l'expérience de votre resto.
I have been to Kim Fung (was Kam Fung) many times in the past & loved it, but it has really gone downhill... We got 8 dim sum items off the carts & many were cold & not fresh. The xiao long bao was congealed inside-no soup in the soup dumplings. Our table & chairs were dirty. We found a few hairs in our dishes. Worst of all, we were seated a table just beside an exposed section of ceiling, with a bucket on the ground collecting leaking water. Two times during the mean, the ceiling gushed water onto me, my outfit & the table. To remedy this, the waiters gave us three napkins. We felt quite disgusted & also a bit queasy after.
Very good food & service. If you are a first timer like me the location may be a little hard to find. It is located on the second floor inside the building with RBC Bank. I came on a holiday on a Monday & they had push carts out!
I'm giving 5 stars on everything because it has the food I was looking for: cart dim sum perfection! The atmosphere, while not perfectly clean or tidy or up to date, I am also give 5 stars, because it had the exact ambiance that I expected & was actually looking for! Outdated chair covers, old dragons on the walls, maybe a bit of peeling paint... It's all part of the experience in my books.
Good place for your dim sum craving, affordable & tasty. Choose the items that are coming out from the kitchen to be sure you get your food hot. Do not hesitate to ask for special items that are not available on the food cart!
my first impression was not great— the floor is dirty, my seat had oil & crumbs, & a couple dishes needed to be swapped out because they were also dirty. the food WAS good i will give them that! it was a bit overpriced, though i suppose everything near old port is.
the carts used to bring food out were also wet & unsightly like something you see to stock chicken in grocery stores… you don’t go to dim sum expecting the keg atmosphere but this place is in serious need of a deep clean & new linens that aren’t ripped & stained . the food is genuinely tasty & i would love to come back but i don’t want to lose my appetite!
