Dinesty Dumpling House had been recommended to me by friends who used to live in Vancouver. I’m a big xiao long bao fan and apparently they have the best around. Our table of two extended to become a table of five, I don’t think the wait staff were too pleased but it was great for me as there were more dishes I could try! To start, pork xiao long bao pork buns. Xiao long bao was on point. And super cheap, I could go there and just eat plates of them! The pork buns were quite oily and I wasn’t as sold on them. Much prefer to stick to the steam dumplings but you never know until you try! Next round, scallop, prawn and squid stir fry with vegetables. I’ve been craving vegetables and this did th...
Video review on my youtube channel: vancity food crew dinesty dumpling house<br/ .<br/ I went here with a friend for lunch because she wanted last minute dimsum. We ordered the shrimp and pork shaomai, shrimp scallop and pork soup dumplings, and the beef noodles with satay sauce. The noodles were a bit overcooked but tasted fine. The shaomai were very juicy and tasty. The soup dumplings were kind of small so I didn't like that. Overall its decent and not too overpriced, but we didn't order the more expensive entree plates. Stick with dumplings and the cheaper noodle plates for a decently priced meal.
Good chinese food, but nothing super duper outstanding. I saw this spot had good reviews and wanted to give it a try. We got a few items, with my favorite probably being the beef roll pancake. Something about the scallion pancake combo with beef and hoisin is so good. The soup dumplings and potstickers were fine, but I also did like the red bean rice cake for dessert it reminded me just of the din tai fung one! Service was okay, and the restaurant itself is huge. If you're looking for something filling and satisfying in the area, look no further!
Although Dinesty won many awards, they are average at best, but in the West End, they do fill the void for acceptable Chinese food. It's a decent option for those who live in the area and don't want to make a trip far. It's very friendly to customers new to Chinese food as there are photos for every menu item and the interior is very clean. There is usually a wait for a table but it shouldn't take too long as tables are in and out pretty fast.

Thanks once again to H. for the recommendation! Went out for a ladies lunch and we were in walking distance to Dinesty Chinese Restaurant on Robson. From the outside it might seem a bit understated but inside it was quite hopping. Upon entering you are welcomed with a glassed-in open kitchen where you can see several chefs preparing various fresh dim sum. We were seated immediately but the restaurant was quite full and very busy.
A franchise that has several locations across Vancouver, this one fares as a favorite for simple and quick chinese food. Supposedly their style is Shanghai because of their soup dumplings, their variation is slighty ranged across chinese cuisine. Their xiaolongbao soup dumplings are a must order, I am a big fan of the savoury pork ones. Family friendly and quick service is guaranteed for fair value prices.
Great selection of Chinese food, modern, clean, fast efficient service, and last but not least, good value price!<br/ <br/ Reservations are always a good idea there is usually a lineup. Staff is brusque and efficient and your dishes will appear as they are ready.<br/
In-house hand-made dumplings. This place is delicious. Recommend the beef noodle soup and dim sum items. Service isn't great and they don't take reservations, at least not on weekends, which is annoying, so expect to wait about an hour.

This is one of our go-to places in the West End, it is so good. Excellent menu variety, the soup dumplings are excellent. When we finish trying everything on the menu I’ll let people know what our favourite is.
