What is a good dim sum restaurant in the Seattle area?

I'm looking for a good place to take my guy friend to. I remember the one in Pike place market being good when I was a kid, but after reading some not so great reviews I thought maybe there would be a better place somewhere else around here. Any suggestions? Thanks :]

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Based on reviews "Chiang's Gourmet" is one of the best dim sum restaurant in the Seattle area.

-quote-

"Chiang's Gourmet
(206) 527-8888

Maple Leaf
7845 Lake City Way NE
Seattle, WA 98115

Reviews:

The place has the hustle-and-bustle energy of its brethren in the Chinatown International District. Chef and owner William Chiang also runs a second Chiang's Gourmet in Renton. Why people have flocked to his North Seattle location instead is a puzzle to him. Not that he is complaining.

Chiang's offers Northern Style dim sum on weekends. On weekdays, the regulars come for the hefty entrees of Szechwan and Taiwanese cuisine and the fresh, chewy noodles.

The four menus can be overwhelming. Work from the mainstream menu with stir fries and dumplings, or the traditional menu with pig's feet and shank hock.

For a hearty, bargain meal, skip the appetizers. The hefty entrees are reasonably priced (many range from $6.95 to $9.25). A couple can order three dishes for less than $30 and may still have enough food left for the affable waitstaff to box your leftovers."

But according to the reviews. The Duk Li Dim Sum is the best in Seattle:

QUOTE

Yes, this place has the cheapest dim sum in Seattle. Well, I haven't exactly been to EVERY single dim sum joint in town but I'm pretty sure this place is it.

Duk Li deserves five stars because it feels the most authentic out of the other places in Chinatown. The place is tiny, service is crappy and they don't charge tea per person. They're also CASH ONLY. Sounds like Asia to me. But hey, I appreciate a real Chinese dining experience once in awhile. Or twice in a week, I guess. (My mom was visiting Seattle from Maryland and she LOVED this place.)

The menu doesn't have very many items but simplicity is good. Everything is so freaking cheap too. I think their thousand year old egg + shredded pork congee is like $2.50. AND it's a HUGE flavorful bowl unlike other places where you have to pour pepper in to add more taste. LOVE IT.

Their buns are definitely cheap, I noticed a lot of people come in and out just to buy their buns. Their dim sum is also very tasty. The shrimp in the ha gow is SO FRESH... YUMMY. They're generally pretty quick about serving the dishes too.

One more thing, their steamed radish (or is it turnip?) cake is really good too. It's also a huge portion. Anyway, bottom line is, the first time my mom and I came here, our bill was like $16 or something and we ordered like 5-6 items. We were definitely greedy. The second time, there were five of us and the bill was like $32... that's about $6 per person , everyone was full and there were leftovers to spare! Need I say more? EAT AT DUK LI INSTEAD OF WAITING FOREVER AT JADE GARDEN.
