Dim Sum Kitchen

About this place

Arrive at Dim Sum Kitchen in Bradenton and the first impression is practical warmth - a family-friendly room, a cozy dining room, and a sense that regulars already claimed their favorite seats.

Order with curiosity - start around dim sum, then leave room for shrimp. Regulars often point newcomers toward brunch. The fryer and grill do honest work with seafood when it is in season.

Practical note for first-timers: ask what is freshest that day and let the staff steer you. Weeknights usually run quieter than weekends. The listing address is 11544 Palmbrush Trail, Bradenton, FL 34202.

Platefolk keeps Dim Sum Kitchen on the map because it still feels like a Bradenton table with a point of view - starting with dim sum and ending with a reason to come back.

Before you visit, skim recent neighbor notes on the listing and confirm hours on the door. Platefolk keeps this page as a field guide, not a frozen brochure - the best proof is still sitting down for a meal.

What we value here is consistency: a kitchen that repeats its strengths, a room that does not treat guests like tickets, and a Dim Sum Kitchen visit that still feels worth the trip across town. Bring curiosity, order something the staff recommends, and leave a short note afterward so the next diner arrives wiser.

I enjoy this restaurant as the Dim Sum is better than most places in this area. It's always fresh and made to order as you'll see in some pics in this review. As most people have stated it's a small restaurant and there are only a couple of people working the front of the house so service can take a while. But if you have time, this is a great place to get your Dim Sum Fix on!

Food is VERY good. LOVE their soups. Guests are friendly with each other. A very comfortable and delicious place to eat or take out, and right inside Lakewood Ranch, Fl❣️

Come for dinner with another couple tonight for dinner.An amazing experience!The food here was simply wonderful. Hot, flavorful and plentiful.The pictures show what we ordered and we had a lot of fun with the experience.This is a fairly small place but our wait for a table was not too long.Service in general was ok, we did have to ask for refills. Not enough to take away a star.This is our new favorite place. You should give them a try!

I bought about $30 worth of dim sum for myself. 😂 Congee with preserved egg was really good. I didn't get that far.4 stars instead of 5 because I'm picky about white rice. It was too dry.Service was very good.Unfortunately, it was dark so no photos.Food: 4/5 | Service: 5/5Recommended dishesDim Sum

The food is good for sure. Eating here now isn't what it was. 6 of us went today 1/2/26 for lunch... Surprise - take - out only. Food is served in nice containers and but it's all bagged up. It's a real picnic experience now. Egg rolls are very good though.I had chicken LoMein it was good.Hoping this place gets back to serving meals at a table

A great experience through and through. Went on a Saturday and didn’t have to wait for a table. Place was very busy between eat in and take out. Staff was very friendly, service was prompt and the food was delicious. Some of the better food we’ve had in Lakewood Ranch. So many good items to choose from so we plan to go back to try more!This time around:- fried sesame balls- steamed pork & shrimp dumplings- fried shrimp balls (favorite)- house chow fun (ordered spicy w. chili oil)- house fried rice

Food was great but the wait was long and service was mediocre. They could've cleaned tables off more timely and seated quicker for efficient service.
