Restoran Da Jia Cheng Dimsum • Sri Petaling • 大家城点心茶楼 — Restaurant in Kuala Lumpur

i would give the service a 0 if i could. The dimsum chinese uncle is the rudest, most disrespectful and out of order waiter i have ever come across.

It was my first time at the restaurant so I wasnt sure how to order, so I asked the uncle, but to my surprise he threw his temper at me and raised his voice to say “Just sit down la!” which I nodded to because I of course was just trying to have a peaceful breakfast to start my day.

When I went to pay, I stood at the counter and waited for someone to attend my bill for 5 minutes. Mind you, it was 6:45am which meant the restaurant was completely vacant with no other customers. I called for two different people, including the uncle and they both looked my way and ignored me. Only decided to attend to me as they pleased later on. (They don’t provide a bill either!!!)

After paying via TNG, I said “Thank you” to the uncle. Which he completely ignored. He walked away without saying a word. This entire time, he had an extremely unpleasant expression and looked extremely annoyed.

I heard great things about the food at this restaurant, and how its been here for decades. But this experience I had with this particular uncle, whilst dining alone, will not make me come back to this restaurant ever again!

Unless you do not care for POOR and AGGRAVATED SERVICE, u are welcomed to come eat here. If you have bad social anxiety, avoid this place. I personally would not recommend this place to anyone, especially when that chinese...

Clan Dim Sum Restaurant 大家城點心茶樓 at Seri Petaling is famed for their Chicken Nest Bun (Gai Woh Bao) which is a pillowy soft dough in a shape of a ‘nest’ stuffed with glutinous rice, chicken, chopped char siew, mushrooms and caramelized onions within.

Nothing too fancy or reworked into disastrous fusion items, Clan Dim Sum emphasizes on freshness of the ingredients and no holds-barred dim sum. The glutinous rice within was moist from the sauce infused with the sweetness of the onions, and chunky bits of char siew. The soft dough in a shape of a nest was a fitting accompaniment to soak up the gravy and provided a pleasant contrast to the savoury fillings.

Not to splash cold water/throw a blanket disapproval over the other dim sum here, as there were decent tries in the steamed and fried items. But then again, I fail to recall anything within the realm of an eye-opening experience like in the case of the Gai Woh Bao.

Still miss the Lor Bak Gou (Pan fried radish cake), Hong Kong Chee Cheong Fun and egg tarts from Ipoh.

My breakfast visit to this Restaurant, or 'this dim sum establishment' on [Optional: Insert June 2, 2025 was nothing short of an absolute rip-off. We ordered a selection of dim sum expecting to pay approximately RM110 based on their own menu prices. However, the bill presented was a staggering RM176—a blatant, inexplicable overcharge of RM66. This was not a simple mistake; it was an act of deliberate deception. When confronted about this significant discrepancy, the owner's response was despicable. They feigned ignorance, refused to acknowledge the clear overcharge, and offered no explanation or resolution whatsoever. This level of dismissiveness in the face of such clear dishonesty is utterly unacceptable and speaks volumes about their business integrity. Customers deserve transparency and honesty, neither of which are present here. This establishment engages in manipulative pricing tactics and shows zero accountability. Save your money and your peace of mind. I urge prospective diners to steer clear of this restaurant unless you wish to be knowingly cheated. Their conduct is a disservice to the local dining scene in...
