I have no other dim sum to compare this to, but I was delighted with my experience! I came with some family who know dim sum well. We ordered a ton of food and our only ended up being about $60, or $15/person. They ran out of a few popular items, but I suppose that's what happens! I'm definitely going back again!
The Dim Sum Cart is very good. We love coming here for Dim Sum during lunch (12-2). Only complaint, the receipts do not say what you are eating and how much it costs, that's a bit strange.
We went in expecting average, American Chinese food and were a little at a loss when no one gave us a menu. Finally we realized we were supposed to take what we wanted from the carts going around! You have to be a little adventurous to pick things you might not be recognize, but absolutely everything we tried was amazingly delicious! Highly recommended for authentic Chinese food.
Reviews are a bit old so time to update. Food is still very good. I would rate 5 star for Seattle/Bellevue but I grew up in Vancouver BC and nothing in the world beats Chinese food there. Service was friendly (even though we held up a table for 20 mins waiting for the rest of our party during busy weekend dim sum) and yes, all the people we had spoke English.
The dining room is alright but could use an update but it all lends to the authentic Chinese food experience. For a big restaurant parking had never been a problem.
There will always be dissenting opinions but I'm reassured that the predominant Asain clientele speaks volumes. No issues with prices or billing. Just a good dining experience with friends.
I commend Noble Court for their commitment to refilling waters. Respect. The dim sum is tasty, but not in the same tier as say... Jade Garden or Harbor City. Certainly better than House of Hong however. The decor and structure itself are dated and a bit dingy, but it's been a beloved family/group dining for locals for ages. If you can't make it out to International District for dim sum, this is a fine substitute.
