This was my first time Harbor Dim Sum, since the Super Star Asian restaurant closed. The inside table set up is pretty much the same, however the décor has been changed to much more open and nicely lit, making the atmosphere feel much more welcoming.
They do have an electronic sign-in wait list at the front, but we didn’t have to wait and were quickly sat at a table. We came for the Dim Sum lunch, which started right away with the wonderful cart service, of the baked/fried, steam, and soup carts. All the staff were very friendly and helpful with all the dishes.
The Dim Sum overall was very good, with all but one of the dishes we had was warm rather than hot. They had run out of the Kalbi beef plate, which the server indicated it would be 7-8 minutes. As time went by, I figured they had forgotten, but to my pleasant surprise it was brought directly to our table steaming hot. Excellent service. The continued service lasted the length of our meal, and we never felt rushed to leave the table.
Overall, the lunch was great, and I would definitely return another day for the Dim Sum lunch. The prices do seem a bit higher than other Dim Sum restaurants, but in for me its worth the friendly service and variety you can receive even on the weekday.
Tips for your visit: If possible, go on a weekday lunch, they still have the cart service and the full variety of choices, and doubtful you will have to wait for a table.

A nice and remodeled dim sum spot. They had most of the staples on the carts but were missing some (dry fried green beans as one example).
The good:
– The zhong zi were very good.
– HK style egg tarts were yummy, flaky, & not too sweet.
– Dry fried green beans were very flavorful but you had to special order them, they didn’t come on the carts.
– Turnip cakes were pretty good but could use a bit more flavor
Could use improvement:
– The soup dumplings were soggy on the bottom because they were served in little tins.
– The shumai were dry

A CHALLENGER to Star Kitchen ! As long as we live in Denver, we always had dim sum at Star Kitchen as it’s always been the best in town. We tried this place for the first time from a friend recommendation and we were not disappointed. The place is well remodeled, great atmosphere, the food is as good or better than Star Kitchen. My wife was impressed not only with the taste but the quality and the presentation of the food. This would now be our go to location for dim sum as Star Kitchen is always busy. Highly recommended!

Excellent food, service and ambiance. Authentic Chinese flavors (unlike some other “Chinese” restaurants around Denver). We’ve been there several times and love everything we’ve tried. The dim sum selection is larger during traditional dim sum times: brunch and lunch, but we have enjoyed many things on the dinner menu, including the zechuan beef brisket casserole (very spicy) and other mild/savory dishes (see photos). The staff is friendly and helpful and the ambiance is excellent. Love the new wall art!

Have been a few months since last visited Harbor Dim Sum & Cuisine. Not only has the menu expanded with more Sichuan and Taishan cuisines, but the change in its interior was even more impressive. The chairs have been replaced with traditional Chinese rosewood pieces, tables covered with patterned cloth, the walls were decorated with backlit classical novel shadow puppet paintings in rosewood frames, the ceiling had traditional Chinese lighting fixtures and more wooden frame decorations, giving the whole place a fresh, upscale, and elegant look with a comfortable ambience. Here are their shredded salty chicken, Maggie duck chin, mixed vegetable tofu, hot chili chicken, beef chow fun, Taishan duck, black pepper steak, deep fried spare rib with garlic and bean seedling with garlic.

Good food.
We went for dinner so can’t comment on dim sum part of food.
The dishes were good for most of that we ordered. And better taste than star kitchen.
Service is definitely much much better than the star kitchen.
They are good for large group where one can share a d sample multiple dishes outside the dim sum.
The Franch steak is worth trying, it’s hard to DIY, the beef is very tender inside (pink meat) and crust outside with good beef and Orion favor.
Class with Basil would have been great if they did not break so many clam shell. (The broken shell pieces were everywhere ruined the favorable dish, otherwise it was very favorable)
The Daikon Briskers clay pot is great for rice (or the monk bean noodle if carry out and reheat at home)
The seafood clay pot is favorable best for dine in .

Great visit to Harbor Dim Sum and Cuisine. They have a convenient self check-in device at the entrance, which makes the waiting process smooth.
The ambience feels very upgraded, from the decor to the overall setting, beautifully reflecting traditional Chinese culture. This is a complete make over from the previous place.
The charcoal lava bun was the our highlight, visually striking with its soft black exterior, and once opened, the warm salted egg yolk filling flows out generously. The texture is fluffy on the outside and rich, creamy, and slightly salty-savory inside, making it very satisfying to watch and to eat!
As for the other dim sum dishes, taste really comes down to personal preference, so I won’t compare it with nearby competitors.
Service was friendly. A little more attentive on prompt tea refills and efficient table clearing would have made it perfect. Overall, very nice “Yum Cha” experience. We will be back to try their lunch or dinner dishes.

Mindblowing! So good and authentic! I feel like I’m in Sichuan when eating the lamb dish and the pea shoots make me feel like I’m in Hong Kong. No difference at all! And the decor is so wonderful. It’s time we had a nicely decorated yet really good and authentic Chinese restaurant in Denver!

Tried this dim sum place for the first time as it came recommended by my family and it didn’t disappoint. Dim sums are authentic and served out of dim sum carts hot and fresh. We got there at 10 on a Sunday and were immediately seated, without having to do online check in or wait in line. We tried the usual ones that we always ordered( from another restaurant on Mississippi and Federal), and they taste just as good except for two dishes, 炸兩(rice crepe wrapped donuts) and 鮮竹卷(tofu skin wrapped meat rolls) which we think can be better. We definitely will make this our first choice of dim sum now as it’s less stressful since it’s not as crowded. The restaurant did fill up by the time we left at 11ish though.

Walking toward the restaurant, I noticed the “Soft Opening” sign, which generally means “please be kind, we are still working on our dishes.”, so I walked in without any expectations. And boy, was I wrong for not having any expectations!
The place was almost completely packed, and the noises from the conversation at each table, the many carts workers were pushing, and the happy faces on people’s faces as they are eating their food, made me realized this IS the new place in Denver where one can have dim sum and enjoy eating these bite-sized nuggets often filled with variety of meat choices.
The various dishes I ate were delicious. From the siu mai, deep fried tofu, a variety of dumplings, to the salt & pepper shrimp and salt & pepper squid, and even complimentary salted egg custard buns, my table of 9 diners left feeling very satisfied and most importantly, happy. Happy we came to eat, and happy to have nice conversations with each other.
This restaurant is not lack of lighting, and it is nice and clean. Each table has white linen and filled with plates and utensils, ready to welcome to next group of diners.
If you are looking a place to catch up with friends or bringing your family together to have a meal, I believe this restaurant will be perfect for you. Enjoy!
