This is the first time we’ve been here since the remodel and the dinner service is like night and day. Rich was our server and he was so friendly and helpful. The food came out quickly and was very fresh. We are vegetarians and we loved the seaweed tofu as well as the fried lava egg buns. Very impressed with the taste and textures. All of the staff were very friendly and they always made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend.

First time ever at a Tim Ho Wan. Came in on a weekend Sunday evening. Service was great staff is supper attentive checking in when they see our table empty. They are fast about picking up empty dishes on the table and quick to refill anything you need. Seating was quick and easy. Food was delicious! we got the shrimp dumpling, pork&shrimp dumplings, bbq pork buns, pork ribs with black bean sauce, red rice rolls, xiao long bao, and sesame ball with dark chocolate and white chocolate. Although some were different than classic dim sum all was delicious. Although true to what I know dim sum it is not traditional. Everything was made with intent and it shows. Also fastest service I have ever had anywhere. Would recommend only thing is price is little more than I would normally pay and that it is not traditional dim sum.

Came here today for the **soft opening** of Tim Ho Wan’s relaunch. For all the hype I saw online, there’s definitely still some kinks to work out before their grand opening.
SERVICE: I found all the staff to be incredibly friendly but they were still working out their system. The online ordering app has a “call server” function but it never alerted our server or got them to our table. There was some mix-ups with our teas and the staff was nice enough to give us a pot on the house as a thank you for our patience. I am sure that the service will improve as the team gets more experience together.
LINES: We came on Christmas Day and only waited about 20 minutes in line before the opening at 11:30. Plan accordingly and get in line early!
FOOD: I liked *most* dishes we tried. The best was the fried silken tofu bites and the spicy dumplings. The spinach enoki dumplings were beautiful in presentation but left something to be desired in flavor. The barbecue pork was great, meat was soft and had a great sauce.
OVERALL: Great interior with a friendly staff, I would definitely come back once the opening kinks have been worked out. This was also pretty affordable, ~$30/pp incl. tax+tip. Looking forward to updating the review!

I am writing this review before we even finish our meal. The food is so good
. Each dish has been delicious. Sam the manager and all of the crew are amazing. It is the best Dim Sum we have ever had. Make sure you get BBQ Pork Buns and the Crispy Shrimp Rd Rice Rolls. Pork and Shrimp Dumplings in the most amazing spicy sauce. The food quality and prices are amazing

We had a great lunch here. I’ve been to their other location a few years ago and I swear the food got better. I don’t remember the siu mai being as big and juicy last time. It was sooooo delicious. The congee was warm and comforting and the bbq crispy pork buns were amazingggg.
I am very sad they don’t have the custard filled sesame balls anymore. Those were one of my favorites in the past.
We had several people checking on us throughout our meal and everyone was very polite.
The restaurant and restroom were both very clean and nicely decorated.
I will be back here next time I am back in Cali!

The environment is clean and well-maintained, with a great atmosphere that makes the whole place feel very comfortable. The staff are extremely friendly, and the food is served quickly.
The dishes taste excellent! Each dish has its own unique character.
The restaurant offers great value for money and is definitely a place you’d want to come back to. I’ve already recommended it to friends and will return to try more dishes. Highly recommended!

After seeing so many glowing reviews since their December 16th grand reopening—and loving their NYC location—I had to visit. Even in soft opening mode, they’ve absolutely hit it out of the park. With a little grace as they finish training, this could easily become the best dim sum in OC, maybe even SoCal.
Highlights:
1. Space – The new dining room is spacious, beautifully designed, and blends Hong Kong/Chinese/Singapore influences with a modern OC vibe.
2. Service – Warm, thoughtful, and genuinely passionate.
Bryan stood out with a true spirit of excellence—professional, enthusiastic, and a natural fit for luxury hospitality.
Rich paced my meal perfectly so each dish arrived hot and enjoyable—huge difference.
Travis kindly helped with my take-home sauces (much appreciated!).
Josh (possibly a manager) was thoughtful and eager for feedback.
A few small service hiccups, but totally understandable during soft opening.
3. Food – A massive improvement across the board. You can feel the care in the kitchen.
Standouts included the pork & shrimp dumplings in chili oil (save that oil—it’s gold), xiao long bao with deep, rich broth, and the best baked BBQ pork buns I’ve ever had—fragrant, balanced, and unforgettable. The peach gum dessert was a refreshing finish (would love it thicker with coconut cream).
One request: Please add cucumbers to the menu—this is a must!
Overall, a fantastic experience and one I’m excited to revisit.

Tim Ho Wan in Irvine has recently completed a renovation, and the updated space is clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed. The atmosphere now feels much more refined and comfortable, making it a pleasant place for a relaxed meal.
The dim sum was excellent, classic selections, served hot and fresh, with well-balanced flavors and consistent quality across dishes. Service was prompt and organized even during busy hours.
A solid option for dim sum in Orange County, especially if you’re looking for a space that feels polished and contemporary.

Delicious and classic food. New menu and was excited to try new dishes. Everything was delicious and service was amazing. The waiter (Neal) gave us awesome recommendations and had a very hospitable and generous nature. My favorite items included the baked bbq buns, lava salted egg buns, and spinach and enoki dumplings. If you really like spicy food definitely recommend pork and shrimp dumplings with noodles. Also don’t forget dessert – see photo. Very traditional and very delish. Will definitely return!!
