About this business

Editorial fromWith its snug streamlined room and fresh food made to-order, Yum Yum Cha is delightfully different from the popular large-scale dim sum eateries. When in a leisurely mood, we like to start with a freshly brewed pot of golden chrysanthemum…

Decent dim sum when you can't get to Bellaire – I tried this place on a Friday afternoon for lunch. They have a little flipbook with all the dim sum choices and photos. Really helpful if you're a first-timer. I must say, the portions and sizes of the dim sum pieces are quite small for the price in comparison to what you get at Ocean Palace or Kim Son. You can definitely count on this place to satisfy your dim sum craving if you are too lazy to make it out to Bellaire or you want it on a weekday. Otherwise, it's much more wor... read more

A Must Have Experience – I absolutely love this place. I have eaten there MANY times. Their food is always hot and cooked to perfection. My daughter and I frequent the place so often that the staff knows us. I have been out of town for some time now and I can truly say that I really miss this restaurant. I have not been able to find another dim sum place like it. The owner and staff are so personable. My favorite dishes are: Turnip Cakes, Shrimp Eggplant, Chicken Feet, Fried Shrimp Dumpling/Balls, Ginger Tripe and Vegetables... read more

Portion too small even for dim sum – The food is fresh but the portion is too small. The place is very tiny. There are way too many dim sum places are much better. I will not go back.

Extremely SLOW, kind of worth it.... – I love dim sum, and when I heard of a restaurant that serves it all day, made to order, I was on board to try it. When I got there, it's really a hole-in-the-wall, which kind of put me off at first, but I decided to give it a try. The service is the slowest of any restaurant that I have ever been to (literally). I ordered 5 different sides of dim sum, and my husband and I were given them one at a time, with approx. 10-15 minutes in between--it was torture!!! We were hungry when we got t... read more

Great Dim Sum in the Village – I really enjoyed my meal at Yum Yum Cha Cafe. I love the location and the staff was very friendly. The menu's have pictures of the food so it makes it much easier to order.

BRIGHT BRIGHT BRIGHT - where is the dimmer switch – It has been many years since I had dim sum, never seem to be motivated enough to go to belliare on sunday. Visited the establishment with three friends for my birthday. Food was great, service was prompt (well we were the only customers), but the lighting is WAY TOO BRIGHT. The overhead lighting needs to be changed, we felt like there were spotlights glaring at us all night. We couldn't wait to get out of the glare. The entire village was hopping last night, except this pla... read more

I found a rock in my dumpling. No really. I found a rock in my dumpling. Otherwise, it was pretty good food and sub-par service. But all I'll remember is that rock.

Rude Owner, Dirty Place, Bad experience – The staff (I think she is the owner) are very rude. She just didn't want to do business. She acted like that she earns encough and doesn't care what you want and how you want it. She never wants to give out slice of lemon. Last time I paid the bill, it was about $16-ish something, I gave her $50, she returned me some quarters. I asked her. She just looked at me:" What? ....well, i don't remember, I have to check". And then she found the $50 note , she then just give me the change wit... read more
