Just posting their new menu with updated prices. This is my family's favorite dim sum restaurant. It still has fresh dim sum coming out after 2pm. Sometimes there's long lines at 3! It's worth the wait though. If they have dinner banquets you might feel pressured to leave by 3 though. My favorite items here are: chicken feet, spare ribs, chive dumpling, taro dumpling, Malaysian sponge cake, egg tart Considering the size of this place, the servers are all well trained and organized. I like how there's a good mix of regulars: middle agers, large families, friends, and some tourists too. You can see how often I come here based on my check-ins. Yes I really come multiple times a week.

6.5.2024 Wednesday@ 12 noon Walk in for table if 3. Waited less than 10 mins today. The service wasn't good today. Waitstaff just seem busy doing they own things and doesn't come check on the table.

4/5 stars for this dim sum restaurant. Undoubtedly packed, the Chinese treasure their Sunday Dim Sum or "Yum Cha" family routines much like the Italians value their Sunday lunches or Sunday pastas with their family. Make no mistake, however, get ready to stand your ground and be firm with the elderly entitled ladies who will shamelessly and relentless cut in front of you, thinking that their need for a table is much more important than yours. Food wise, it was a 4/5, but I definitely appreciated the traditional tripe and unique black sesame balls filled with black sesame paste! They are generous with the shrimp and pork fillings as well for their ha gao and siu mai. Brooklyn Chinatown is predominantly Cantonese speaking, so it helps to know some basic Cantonese or bring a Cantonese speaking friend along.

Definitely my favorite Chinese restaurant of the Brooklyn bunch. East Harbor serves up classic dishes, but does it right. Prices are also super reasonable compared to other Brooklyn restaurants for both dimsum and dinner. One of my faves here is the braised noodles - not sure what they do here but it is SO tasty! Seafood options here are also reasonably priced, making East Harbor the favorite for special occasion dinners as well. The interior is spacious with plenty of seating. Even then, the tables fill up quickly during dimsum peak hours. Reservations also go FAST around major holidays. There are plenty of regulars here, so service is super friendly.

Visited on weekday for lunch. This place was super authentic!! When you see a large group of its country's elderly customers, you know you are at the right place. They had a waiting card giving out. They will call you when your table is ready. I had to wait about 20 mins for a group of 2 which wasnt too bad. There are main dish menus which you can order from. Or you can have any dishes on the cart that is going in between all the tables. I really enjoyed picking what i wanted to eat. They have anything you can imagine, such as vegetable dishes, dimsum dishes and meats! Most of the speak in english so feel free to ask any question. Most important! They have a free parking!!

Packed like always on a Sunday morning. Luckily the wait was only around 30 minutes at 11am for a party of four. The dim sum is good at least the savory things. They really do the classics well. There was more to be desired for the baos. The golden lava steamed bao was a let down. It was oily and didn't have much salted egg flavor. Fried sesame ball with sesame paste was really good too. It was less than $20 per person for four people, and we ate at least 10 dishes. Very worth it. The dim sum is almost all good.

The fried crab rice is very delicious . I gotta say I eat a lot of fried crab rice yearly . This is top tier. Tao chicken is also great. The crab soup is also great. I also order fried flat beef noodle (to go) - that's is not much of a taste. Overall this place definitely worth trying and coming back. Waitress are funny and friendly. Place is clean and very huge. Total :$104 without tip .

Hands down my family all-time favorite dim sum spot in the entire city. Not exaggerating, they come to yum cha at least twice a week. We've tried almost everything on the menu and dim sum carts. I can't even count how many times I've been here, and finally decided to give them an honorable mention. The aunties who push the dim sum carts are really attentive and friendly -- they remember our fav food and always reserve us warm dim sum. Just found out East Harbor was listed in 2023 Michelin Guide -- very well-deserved.
