Tim Ho Wan

Obsessed with this dim sum spot 🥟✨!!! We come here for both lunch and dinner, and it hits every single time. Truly one of those places that never misses. I also love supporting all of their locations, nothing but good vibes all around. The har gow is a forever fave, the shrimp balls are a must (and do not forget the chili oil 🔥). The sake-tinis have my whole soul here, especially the lychee one 🍸💖. And if soup dumplings are on special… RUN. They are so dang good. I love that they do seasonal chef specials. Also… I’m convinced they have the best chili dumplings around. Perfect size, perfect flavor, absolute perfection. Do yourself a favor and support this amazing space, you’ll leave happy and full every time! 🫶🥢

First round had the Wontons in Hot & Spicy Sauce which was alright, as well as the Steamed Rice with Minced Beef and Egg which I also thought was alright. Second round got the Pan Fried Noodles with BBQ Pork which I thought had great flavor but was a bit dry. Adding some chili sauce made it better. Then also tried the Baked BBQ Pork Buns which were really really good: soft, crispy, sweet, savory. Amazing! For dessert the Sweet Osmanthus Jelly was just not for me, but the Lava Custard Sesame Balls were increeeedible.

Tim Ho Wan has become one of my family and I’s favorite dim sum places to stop by when we’re in Houston. Their dishes are less oily than the average dim sum places. Overall super light and delicious. You can’t go wrong with any of their shrimp dishes - super sweet and savory. The portions are decent. Most dishes come with enough to split 1 piece per person for 3-4 persons. My all-time favorites are the steamed pork dumplings with shrimp, steamed rice rolls with shrimp, blanched lettuce, and lava custard sesame balls!

We came for an early lunch right when they opened so the service was quick and efficient. The server was attentive and checked on us several times. We enjoyed all the dishes that were ordered. Not too salty or greasy like other dim sum joints and light enough to grab bubble tea afterwards!

Just wow! The BBQ pork bun is a must-try. It’s a HK-style pineapple bun filled with the most tender char siu. I’m definitely coming back just for that. I can see how the original THW got a Michelin star.
