Traditional dim sum & roast meats on King's Cross Road
Dim Sum Duck is a no-frills Cantonese eatery renowned for authentic dim sum steamed fresh to order and exceptional roast duck. Every dumpling, every plate reflects traditional Hong Kong preparation techniques and genuine flavors.
Our roast duck features crispy skin, tender aromatic meat, and a delicate fat layer that captures the essence of Cantonese wok cooking. From har gow (shrimp dumplings) to xiao long bao (soup dumplings), siu mai (pork & shrimp), and cheung fun (rice noodle rolls), each dish demonstrates meticulous craftsmanship.

What diners love about Dim Sum Duck
"Possibly the best dim sum in London. Authentic flavors and generous portions—har gow and xiao long bao especially. Very affordable prices. Everything tasted amazing. Staff needs to be warmer, but the food quality makes it 5 stars."
"Original dim sum duck—small, cramped, but excellent service. Got seated immediately. Cash only (£1.95 ATM fee nearby). Roast duck very good. Xiao long bao dumplings nice with ginger dipping sauce. £30 for 3 items."
"Fabulous service! Lucky to get table at 2pm for 3. Friendly staff. Food incredible. Stir-fried broccoli with perfect wok-hei. Char siew tender & aromatic. Roast duck crispy skin, awesome fat layer. Cheong fun delicate & smooth. Highly recommended!"
"Best dim sum place in London. Worth the 1.5 hour queue. Fantastic roast duck, garlic stir-fried vegetables, dim sum with generous portions. Good amount of soup in dumplings, generous shrimp in har gao & springrolls. Highly recommend!"
"One of the best dim sum places in London. Steamed after order—very hot & delicious. Har gao & siu mai are very large. Turnip cake has real turnip taste. Traditional dim sum food. Small & crowded but worth it!"
