“Carryout order. One of only 2 Dim Sum restaurants serving after 3PM in the I270 area. Food has gotten better since about a year ago. Prices are more reasonable than most Dim Sum restaurants. This restaurant has been around a while and has been on the struggling side post covid. If you are in the area it is worth a try.“
“Very much enjoyed the dim sum at Silver Fountain. It has everything you expect for a dim sum restaurant. Came here twice. Once during the weekend and once during the weekday.Push carts on weekends.Mostly everything we ordered was surprisingly $4.95 or less per dish.Just a wonderful place to go for Dim Sum.Enjoy!“
“Dim sum is brought out from the kitchen rather than served from steam carts going around the restaurant. As for the taste and quality, they depend on what item you order. I liked the bean curd roll and the shrimp stuffed tofu but the fried chive dumplings were gummy. Prices start at $5.25 per order and go up to over $10. The service was pleasant but weekends are extremely busy here.“

“How have I forgotten to write a review for Sichuan Pavilion??? It is my absolute go-to in DC for mapo tofu. I don't get Chinese takeout often, but of the handful of places I've tried, this one tops them all. My partner is a fan of their Eggplant with garlic sauce and their vegetable lo mein. I'm not going to describe any of these in further detail because they're all so universal, if you've had a good version, you know, and they're all good versions here. Extremely generous portions, including of the complimentary white rice, and the service is quick and very courteous. Being near Farragut Square makes it super convenient to get to, too.“
“I have always loved coming here. Everyone is so nice, it's family owned and service is fast. The food is authentic and the carrot pastry is something special!Kid-friendliness: The environment is vibrant and beautiful, they have a cool fish tank and if you go there for Chinese New Year, they throw a huge celebration!“
“Some of the best dim sum in the area. Plentiful choices on the carts, well made and fresh. Perhaps a touch more expensive than standard but I feel it's worthwhile for the quality.Also not as crowded as some of the others, so you could roll up at noon and probably land a table without a wait.I recommend the Har gow and the char siu pastry, super good. Sio Mai was a little gamey and off, unfortunately.“
“Wow!! Absolutely delicious food! I don’t usually have high expectations with unlimited dimsum, so we were pleasantly surprised! The food quality was very good, and so tasty. Not watered down American dimsum, tasted like authentic Hong Kong style cooking! I highly recommend the panfried seafood noodles, roast pork buns, roast bbq pork, snow peas, and duck ? Our server Chen was super attentive, timing all our dishes right when we were ready for the next round, very amiable, and gave overall great customer service! The place is on the small side, but is very tastefully decorated. Can’t wait to go back!Kid-friendliness: They have reduced prices for kids.“
“I give this place a 6.5/10! It was super busy, but surprisingly, we got seated after a 5 min wait (we only had two people though). But, my rating stands cause even though the food tasted great, it was slightly oily and some of the foods were cold and not even warm, so that kinda killed it for me ? Nonetheless, service was quick and they do the carts!!“

“This is typical dim sum style with food on the carts. Excellent and delicious dim sum. The big dining room is loud and crowded but I think it makes it more festive and enjoyable. We had a table of four and sat right in the middle of the room. Only down side is if you want to order tea or off the menu, sometimes it can be hard to track down an available server.“
“This was a really nice vibe for a late night. Lots of people “possibly because it was late and the only thing open but was also the same night of a Doja Cat concert” The food was really good, I had beef and broccoli and it tasted different from any other I’ve had before (I’m a good way) and it was honestly one of the top Chinese take outs for me.“
“We tried this restaurant again yesterday evening and the food was quite good. Many Asian families occupied large round tables and the diners seemed happy with their choices. We enjoyed the hot and sour soup, double mushroom with mustard greens and a steamed Sea Bass ($34).“
