This is my first time visiting TimHoWan after my husband told me that this is an awarded restaurant. The food is very good and I love many of them a lot such as Baked Buns with BBQ pork, prawn dumplings and current specials–prawn filling wrapped with beetroot & wasabi tobiko topping.
Great dumplings and quick service. Brought my cousins from USA here for lunch and was easy to sit together and share food. Would be great if the menu was a bit longer would be only comment.
Second time been here, service this time was better than first time. Food is good, pretty consistent from first time. Abit on the pricier side.
Nice food and good service! The monthly special menu is worth a try! Highly recommend the Tom Yum Goong Prawn Dumpling, very appetitive for the hot summer!
The location is easily accessible. The restaurant is quite spacious. Table set up is good and provides a lot of privacy. However, the chairs need to be a bit formal so that the heavy weighted people can seat more properly and comfortably. Unfortunately I also noticed a number of tiny flies around.
Now it turns to food. The dishes are tiny relative to the other Chinese restaurants. Variety is confined and provides not much choices. Taste and quality are good except the Vermicelli roll with fried dough (zhaliang) in which the fried dough is stale and grease. It is totally unacceptable.
The Vermicelli roll with sesame sauce is fantastic and very well presented.
It was ok for a one off
Wasn't wowed
Probably would not come back
For the prices and portions I would expect it to be amazing but the ginger chicken rice was almost inedible and the tea tastes like dirty water?
Great food. Little bit more pricey than normal yumcha but excellent food. Worth a try. Spacious environment, not bad to take your kids along.
Good service..great food. carefully crafted taste recommend chicken.rice and garlic very yummy. also can try beacurd skinn with pork and shrimp. judt yummy chinese a good yum cha alternative
Great food and friendly staffs. Never disappointed. Try baked buns with bbq porks and Vermiceli, they are the best you can find at inner west suburbs.
Favorite dim sum place. I love the sesame rice ball with salted egg yolk, steamed egg cake, braised chicken feet, pan fried radish cakes and the home made barley water!
Good customer service and overall clean establishment. Recommend their signature Baked Bun with BBQ Pork. Park at Westfield Burwood for 2 hour free parking. No Amex.
Fine and tasty Dim sum here. I am only reviewing the food. Been back many times and consistent quality. Recipes look similar to original in hk and are made to order. Authentic. Light touch, nothing greasy and beautiful food. Good timing, nothing overcooked, good textures and balanced flavours. Reasonable prices for the quality. Foodie friends agree. I eat a lot of dim sum places and find Tim ho wan special. I think we should be thankful to have an establishment like this in the heart of Burwood to give an opportunity to taste Michelin star style food. It is a reliable good eat, foodies need to support this place. I am glad the operators have stayed true to the original despite much local criticism. We will keep returning.
Well done dumplings and etc but a fairly limited menu. Very busy. The BBQ pork buns were interesting - baked sugary, crisp pastry instead of the normal soft doughy wrapping, and the sauce inside was a lot less rich and gooey than normal. The pork dumplings were good, but the skin was a bit tacky and the prawn filling a bit dense.
