Da Hong Pao Restaurant and Bar

Awesome dim sum and Chinese food conveniently located in the middle of DC. The service is quick and food was really delicious. The portion sizes for the dishes is also generous. I'd come back anytime.

TOTALLY satisfied my Hongkonger / Chinese dessert sweet-tooth cravings! And please make sure you order your dessert early if you’ll be sad it’ll be gone because it’s first come, first served! Desserts were all a bit on the smaller side in my opinion (no egg tart bite photo because it was petite enough that I just tossed it into my mouth in one bite) but tasty is tasty. Also, Donna was a fantastic server and all of the staff were very kind. Some Dim Sum restaurants feel like I’ve gotta be Mad Max in the Thunderdome to get my orders in (if you know, you know), but this was really chill. I think it’d be a great intro dim sum experience if you’ve never had it before.

Awesome yum cha. You select what you want from a two sided menu that takes the form of a gallery of photos. They bring the food out pretty quickly and it’s pretty good food. Yum!
