I was skeptical about this restaurant serving dim sum when the restaurant's name was unusual. We decided to give it a try. It... was legit dim sum or Chinese restaurant. The dim sum may not be the best comparing other dim sum places in the NoVa, but is wasgood and expensive. Read more

Visiting the DC area for the weekend and our friend was staying at the MGM casino. We googled the closest dim sum places and one... of them was sampan. The dim sum was really good and chrysanthemum tea was perfect. Surprisingly, service was excellent as a lotof Chinese restaurants tend to have spotty service. We will definitely be back when we’re in this area. Read more

We discovered Sampan delivered during the pandemic and ordered dim sum and some other dishes from them several times. Mostly... things are good except this past week the shrimp & chive dumplings we got were deep fried? Not sure what happened there... Read more

Great food!! My favorite dishes were the spicy crispy bean curd and the chive dumplings. We also got stuffed eggplant, scallop... dumpling, string beans, bean curds, salted egg yolk, Shumai, and the sesame balls. Lots of vegetarian and pescatarian options.The dim sum prices were very reasonable (~$5 for each small plate w three pieces). Read more

Ordered seafood combo. With XO sauce $25.8. It is very disappointing. Only three small peeled shrimp and several pieces of... Squid. No scallops, no nothing other seafoods as combo. I called restaurant and complained the dish. He said “ That is shouldbe” . What kind of service it is. Never go and never order again. This dish size is similar to lunch box. Very bad experience Read more
