5 Best Dim Sum Restaurants in Singapore (2026)

The Dim Sum Place @ North Bridge Road is one of four Singapore outlets from a halal-certified dim sum chain that also serves Hong Kong-style dishes like congee, noodles and roast duck. It offers both dine-in and delivery, and its menu leans on hand-prepared dumplings and buns alongside savoury mains built for sharing. With a wide Muslim and non-Muslim customer base, it is set up as a group-dining option rather than a quick solo stop.

The Dim Sum Place @ The Centrepoint is the Orchard Road branch of the same halal-certified chain, tucked into the basement of The Centrepoint mall near Somerset MRT. Like its sister outlets, it serves a full halal dim sum and Hong Kong-style menu, with the convenience of a central shopping-district location. Reviewers describe it as a reliable mid-shopping stop as much as a destination meal.

Sum Dim Sum is a Cantonese restaurant on Jalan Besar known for its hand-made dim sum and Instagram-friendly presentation, including its signature Tiffany Blue prawn dumplings coloured with blue pea flower. It operates from a single main restaurant with a modern, double-floor dining room and describes itself as a casual, family-style spot rather than fine dining.

Swee Choon Jalan Besar is a Singapore institution that has served dim sum since 1962, spanning several shopfronts along Jalan Besar. It serves Hong Kong and Shanghai dim sum plus hand-pulled noodles and zi char, with dine-in, hot food delivery, and frozen dim sum delivery all available. Its long hours, open into the small hours on weekends, have made it a fixture for late-night suppers across generations of Singaporeans.

Yum Cha Restaurant is a Chinatown dim sum house that has served traditional Cantonese dim sum since 2000, from a shophouse setting with marble tables. Alongside classic dim sum, it runs seasonal menus tied to local events, and offers a broad catering programme for buffets, high tea and canapé service. It positions itself as an old-school, tradition-first alternative to Singapore's newer dim sum concepts.
