Enjoy the Grove’s Best Dim Sum Brunch
If you’re searching for an unforgettable dim sum experience in Austin, look no further than Ling Wu Grove. This stylish Chinese restaurant in the heart of the vibrant Grove neighborhood has quickly become a go-to spot for locals and visitors craving elevated Chinese cuisine. Specializing in artful dim sum, Ling Wu Grove offers a weekend brunch that blends traditional flavors with modern sophistication, making it the perfect destination for a leisurely Saturday or Sunday meal.
Why Ling Wu Grove Stands Out for Dim Sum in Austin
Opened in July 2024 by renowned chef Ling Qi Wu—the acclaimed dim sum expert behind hits like Wu Chow, Lin Asian Bar, and Qi Austin. Ling Wu Grove brings decades of expertise to the table. Chef Wu’s passion for preserving authentic Chinese cuisine shines through in every bite, from delicate steamed dumplings to bold, flavorful creations.
The weekend dim sum brunch, served Saturdays and Sundays from 10:30 am to 3:00 pm, is the highlight. Unlike traditional cart service, dishes are ordered à la carte, ensuring everything arrives fresh and hot. Standout items include:
- Shrimp Har Gow: Plump, translucent wrappers filled with juicy shrimp, a classic done to perfection.
- Pork and Shrimp Sui Mai: Open-topped dumplings bursting with savory filling.
- Shanghai Seafood Soup Dumplings: Delicate orbs with rich, steaming broth inside.
- Snow Crab Ball and Pecan Shrimp: Innovative twists that elevate traditional dim sum.
- Spare Ribs with Black Bean Sauce and Chicken with Cashew Dumpling: Hearty options for sharing.
Reviewers, including The Austin Chronicle, praise the “elegant and elevated dim sum experience” that’s still approachable, with flaky scallion pancakes and non-greasy textures setting it apart from other.
