Dim Sum Library, Covent Garden

Verdict

3/5: Good enough

  • Would seek it out: No
  • Would go back: Yes, but only for the wagyu beef puffs
  • Standout dish(es): Wagyu beef puff
  • Decor: Upscale dim sum restaurant
  • Service: Rushed, poor timing
  • Other thoughts: Disappointing given the hype due to low quality:price ratio. The xiao long bao wrappers were too thick, and the side dishes for the mains only came after we finished the rice.
