It is a nice casual Asian place. Food was great — we had beef eggplants and wonton soup, — both amazing.
They have better selection of drinks that you would expect and prices are very reasonable, especially as for the French Quarter.
The only reason why I rated it 4*, I do really prefer my food served in a not chipped tableware.

3.7 stars. We opted for something other than Cajun and found Dian Xin. Simple, small venue serving seriously good food. Slight knock on the atmosphere as about a third of the way through lunch, we all started to get hot as there was little circulation in the restaurant even though they had fans on. The soup dumplings, wings, and honey walnut shrimp were perfect! Definitely worth eating here if you get an Asian craving.

The food was so amazing that I convinced my husband to get lunch take out the next day. Wonton soup is the best I’ve ever had. All of their speciality items do not disappoint.
Atmosphere was okay- definitely a spot that is more about the food! Very very loud.

One of our favorite places in New Orleans. Dian Xin was a good combination of comfort food with unique twist.
I enjoyed the shrimp and crawfish dumplings. I’ve never seen that before. They were huge dumplings I’m not used to seeing. The taste was great too.
Hot n sour soup was a surprise. I have a general baseline for this type of soup as they can all taste the same but this one was a great balance of sour and savory. The soup itself is a meal in its own since it comes with a lot in it.
Lastly, the jianbing was great. I haven’t had one since I’ve been to Chicago, and this one was just as good as the one I found in Chinatown. The braised beef was tender and I loved the sweet sauce they put in it.
A huge plus with Dian Xin was their anime theme. They were playing anime intro songs all day and had Jojo on.

The food was fabulous! Very small place so it’s not great for big party but it’s such a great authentic Chinese place in NOLA!!

Always great food. And great staff. Been here lots. The xiao long bao (soup dumpling) is a can’t miss. Hot and sour soup is awesome too.

I visited NOLA from Texas, we were there the labor day weekend. You walk in and it’s like a mom and pop shop. They do regular entrees on top of serving hot pot. We went from some seafood stuffed boa, salt and pepper squid and the sesame seed chicken. When I say we cleaned our plates, I mean it. It was by far the best food I had all 4 days in NOLA. So thank you. Next time I visit this will be my first stop!!!

Dian Xin is such a solid spot in New Orleans. Everything comes out fresh, flavorful, and super comforting. The dumplings are definitely the stars, perfectly made and so tasty but honestly everything we tried was great

Dian Xin is a standout Chinese dim sum restaurant tucked right in the French Quarter of New Orleans, and it’s one of those places that surprises you with how satisfying a meal can be here. The vibe is casual and cozy — perfect for a relaxed lunch or dinner after exploring nearby streets, with friendly staff and a warm interior that makes you feel welcome from the moment you walk in.
What I personally enjoy most are the dumplings and dim sum offerings — juicy soup dumplings and creative crabmeat & crawfish baos often steal the show — paired with solid staples like wonton soup, stir-fried noodles, and basil popcorn chicken. The dishes are fresh, flavorful, and just different enough from the usual New Orleans fare you find in the French Quarter.
While some folks find the menu a bit mixed or the experience simple compared to big city Chinese food, for me Dian Xin hits a sweet spot of comforting Asian comfort food right in the heart of New Orleans. It’s a fun, lighter-hearted meal choice when you want something tasty and satisfying — dim sum with personality.

Got the peppered steak, it was surprisingly good. The street it’s on is currently under construction but the food made it worth the walk through
