| - Growing up in Cleveland, Li Wah is one of the best restaurants with tasty dim sum. In bigger cities, such as Los Angelos and Manhattan, there are obviously more varieties in appetizers, main dishes and desserts, however with the small Chinese population in Cleveland, I would say we are pretty lucky to have Li Wah around!
I have been going here since I was a kid for brunch, dinner, and even wedding receptions. We come as a family or bring friends from out of town to this dining location. The food is phenomenal, and to this day, I love introducing friends and coworkers to share a bit of my culture through food!
Be warned that a majority of the dim sum dishes are composed of pork or shrimp or a combination of the two. If you decide to go with the dim sum option, it is best if you come with a Chinese speaking friend so you don't order anything surprising! Most dim sum dishes are for sharing, so don't be upset if your friend takes a dumpling of "yours." My favorite (and all the kids' favorite) dim sum dish are the Siu Mai, which are the pork and shrimp dumplings. If you order straight from the menu, food choices are pretty straight forward and if you need some explanation, most of the servers are able to explain to you in English. My favorite from the menu options is the Pan Fried Noodle with Seafood dish. Thinking about it is just making my mouth water... yum!
Dim sum runs from 10 am - 3 pm on weekdays (with limited options) and 10 am - 4 pm on weekends. Menu items can be ordered throughout the day.
I highly recommend Li Wah for authentic Chinese food!
