The Pearl

Food was 4/5. Everything tasted good. Just would've ordered the dim sum dishes to be warm when it was time to eat it. One of my favorites would be the roasted pork with pickled cabbage, crispy shrimp wonton with mayo, and egg tarts. I also like the shiu mai, shrimp eggrolls. I always get the crispy taro which is pretty heavy. I wasn't too crazy about their shrimp on a sugar cane. Shrimp balls were average. I forgot about getting the red meat xa xiu but maybe next time. We came on a Sunday with lunar new years celebration. We waited about 20 minutes to be seated. Service was fine. Place was clean and prepared by putting multiple clean table covers to make cleaning for the next party easy. By the time we got done there were tons of people waiting to eat here.

went in on a Tuesday around noon; it wasn't busy at all. I thought the table cloth was a fluffy cloth; until I realized it was probably 60 plastic table cloths laid on top of each other (probably for easy clean up)The best thing was the chili oil on the table-it was actually spicy!The dim sum was alright, I'm only comparing it to PHL/NY dim sum.I was excited for the chicken feet but it wasn't that great--Good, but I've had better.The shumai were big though. $6.50 for 4 big pieces.The tripe was good, I just wished it was cut smaller/thinner.9 large size dishes for $64Not something I would put on my must eat dim sum in DFW, but would go if it was the only place available.

I am not from the DFW area, but from what I've have heard, Arlington doesn't really have a dim sum scene. This restaurant was a popular choice online.Unfortunately, this dim sum at The Pearl is not good, and I would not recommend fulfilling your cravings here. On the plus side, the servers are very friendly and gave service with a smile.I ordered my favorite items, and honestly, I didn't like most of them. The only items that were just ok were the cha siu bao (steamed BBQ pork buns) and the siu mai. The steamed pork spare ribs were bland and dry. They tasted like they were just boiled in water with no flavor at all. The lo mai gai (sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaf) was so dense, and there was very little filling. The meat inside was dry.I expect a satisfying plump bite of shrimp when I eat har gow; their har gow does not deliver. The wrapping was thick, dry, and the filling was scarce. The flavor of the steamed beef tripe with ginger and scallion was decent, but the texture was too soft and mushy. The soy sauce for the shrimp cheung fun was too salty, though the rolls themselves had a good texture and the shrimp was good.Their bathrooms are not well maintained. They literally can't be bothered to put the paper towels or TP into the dispensers. They leave the paper on top of the dispensers or on the wet counter which is not sanitary.

I really want to give this establishment some high praise, but honestly, it was somewhat lackluster. We ordered a fair variety of dim sum dishes, and nothing really stood out. To be fair we came on a weekday, so it was pretty empty, with maybe 3 other tables taken around us. Dallas does have some top tier Korean foods, but Chinese needs some work. Everything was either too salty or bland

I was in a wedding over the weekend and my friend insisted on taking the Bridal party to The Pearl. Thank God she did that. I had such a nice time. The service was pretty good and the atmosphere was upscale.The Pearl is located in GP. In a modern shopping mall strip called Asia Times Square. Our waitress brought out a 7 course meal. Starting with a flavorful soup. Our Waitress brought a large bowl out and poured it in to smaller bowls. I love the Asian hospitality. Next, we had Egg Rolls. They were large and crispy and were popular at our table. We also had Beef Broccoli, the Beef was tender and thin. We had rice but, it seemed watery? We had over sized Fried Shrimp. It was extra crispy with a Cheese filling. Sweet and Sour Pineapple Fish was served and that was my favorite! The Fried Fish was a good size and it was crispy with a sweet sauce. It was topped with Red and Green Peppers. We finished our meal with some Sweet Mango and Watermelon. It's very quiet in there despite being surrounded by large families. Restrooms are clean. Theres a Ballroom/lounge next store too.As you can see, they have a great Hong Kong Style menu. Great Asian Hospitality and a Ballroom next store. You can come here to eat or you can book your wedding party here either way, you will get a taste of Asia.

Was in the area about three weeks ago. Decided to stop by for some lunch before heading to a wedding reception at night on a Saturday.Located in the Asia Times Square in Grand Prairie. Shared parking lot with nearby businesses. To our surprise they were serving dim sum at 3:30pm. Usually dim sum is served during morning hours only. But that all worked out in our favor! Haha.It was a medium-large sized space with a bar too.Service was fast and friendly. The staff would be rolling the food carts around and asked showed us what are options were. Each dish comeSun about 2-4 pieces. The size portions were big and they were all delicious!I

The Pearl is usually my go-to place for dim sum on this side of town (middle DFW) but when I went on Saturday, it did not hit like it usually does. Service was good but the first round of food we got - everything was room temperature instead of hot. And the selections just didn't taste as good as they used to :(

Every time I visit The Pearl, the food gets better and better. The dim sum on the weekend is pretty decent and portions are pretty big. My favorites are the Xiu Mai and the shrimp rice noodle. The ha khảo is good but the wrapper always falls off the filling. I also love getting their thousand egg rice porridge. The dinner menu here is also pretty decent depending on what you order (I would stick to the less American dishes on the menu). Be aware though, the food here is kind of bland so you definitely need extra soy sauce.Service is average. The restaurant itself is clean and new looking. Good spot to try out in Grand Prairie.

We had dim sum there. The food was mediocre, several items including the pork spring rolls were straight up cold and everything else was lukewarm. The carts didn't come by often enough and there was not a large selection. Could not recommend.

This is the best authentic Chinese restaurant in Arlington and the mid-cities. It stands up next to the best Chinese restaurants in far North Dalls suburbs or Houston. Dim sum is what they're known for, but my family goes for dinner and everything is good. Never too busy, always able to seat us right away, child friendly.
