Some friends and I got to try this truck's food at Lucky Envelope Brewing and loved it! As a Chinese person I wasn't sure I'd like dim sum from a truck, but their food was delicious and even the chow mein was loaded with veggies and felt healthy. The sesame balls with red bean filling are some of my favorite I've ever had. The people that run this truck are SO lovely.
Food is delicious! Yummy dim sum in a food truck! Super friendly service. The food is as good as a restaurant dim sum experience.
Love it as a food truck for a brewery, but to be honest, some of our pot stickers and shrimp dumplings were broken, which wasn't exactly what we were looking for and could be improved as a dim sum place.
Tasty and reasonably priced dim sum! Came upon Panda Dim Sum at the Issaquah Farmers Market and was drawn by the large crowd waiting in line - and now I see why! We ordered the sampler plate and everything was fresh and delicious. The older couple running the show are friendly, generous and welcoming. Will definitely be back!
Dim Sum out of a food truck? Say less! Panda Dim Sum is a food truck that appears at different pop-up locations throughout Seattle. We happened to catch them at Lucky Envelope Brewery. We ordered the #3 Happy Meal Combo which gives a sampler of dim sum items + sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaves. Everything was traditional and tasted good. The food arrived hot and spring rolls crispy. The price was decent for the items received. The wait was quite long and we were standing outside in the cold rain. Obviously, since it is a food truck, seating and parking cannot really be described. I'd still personally rather eat my dim sum at a real restaurant, but this is a decent alternative when that isn't available.
I had a craving for dim sum but going to a traditional restaurant alone can be a little awkward. So as an alternative, I searched for take out options. Panda Dim Sum came out and I thought I would take a try. I came around 1PM not knowing the market decided to close early due to all the smoke from the forest fires. Luckily, the nice gentleman running the truck still took my order and had enough to make me a Big Meal order. It came with some spring rolls, sesame balls, a bbq pork bao, potstickers, and siumai. All over a bed of fried noodles. The food was still hot and there was a lot of it! Their house hot sauce was also really good and complimented everything in the platter. Overall, for a quick dim sum fix and being served from a good truck, I thought it was good and worthwhile to try if you ever see it around!
Super friendly food truck with regulars going back weekly to follow the truck's schedule. The food is heavier comfort food, and they give you plenty for extras. It makes for about 2 meals! Unfortunately they run out of food quickly but give you extra substitutes and replacements, which everyone is happy enough with.
We visited the Panda Dim Sun food truck for the first time while it was at our local brewery today. It. Was. So. Good. I've only had dim sum a couple times before and this made me question why I haven't had it more, haha! We waited a little bit to order and get our food, but given that it was just one (very nice) woman running the truck, a bit of a wait makes sense. It was absolutely worth it though. It's hard to choose one favorite food item, but if I had to, the pork bun might be it. You've gotta try the chili oil as well.
Such a cute food... bus? Food is served out of a refurbished school bus and they have an AED inside. Safety first! Everything I tried was delicious but I'd definitely recommend the har gow and you absolutely must have the chili oil. I ended up buying an entire jar.
Dim Sum Panda offers high quality dim sum and reasonable prices. If this food truck is in your neighborhood, GO! Be prepared to wait +45 minutes but plan for it and go anyway! You can pre-order online, but there is just one line for both walk-ups and pre-orders so it really doesn't save you any time. I think it helps the owners understand what they need to be prepared for though so its a nice courtesy and it makes checkout faster. The Lo Mein was just average but that was the only thing that didnt leave an impression on me. The Siu Mai and the Har Gow were out of this world. The spring rolls were really tasty as well. Pros High quality dim sum Fair prices Cons Long wait, even if you order in advance, but they are popular for a reason!
