Sum Yum Gai

Fast delivery. Food exceeded my expectations:-) more

There was no sesame on the sesame chicken and the egg drop soup tasted microwaved more

The food tasted fresh and there was plenty of it! Will definitely order from here again. more

I order from Sum Yum Gai often and it's always delicious and delivery is quick. Love their Orange Peel Beef! more

I've ordered from this spot several times and it's always good fresh food! more

We love this place. Very consistent and FAST!! more

I would not give this restaurant even one half of a half of a star. I purchased a whole pecking duck and received one half of a burn out duck that looked as if it had been cooked a few days earlier. I also paid for a six pack of coke and diet coke that was not delivered until two hours after the dinner reached my apartment. And the dinner took two and a half hours to reach my place! Avoid this restaurant at all cost. There are alternatives...after all, it is just Chinese food. more

Ordered a few dishes for delivery and was very impressed when the food arrived HOT, the order was accurate, and it arrived in about half the time they had originally estimated. Scallop curry and fried rice were both delicious and quality was very nice - not overly greasy, as is unfortunately the case with lots of other Chinese restaurants. I will absolutely order again. more

We were on vacation in Miami and read the reviews on here and we weren't disappointed. Now we are back in San Antonio craving this restaurant, but when we are back in Miami we will be coming here again. more

I went to Sum Yum Gai for the first time and had an interesting but not entirely positive experience. I received a coupon in the ?Best of South Beach Hometown Magazine? for a buy one entree, get one 1/2 price at Sum Yum Gai. The page said ?Dine In, Carryout, Delivery.? So I called to place an order for delivery --- no one answered. I tried a few times but still, no one answered their phones. So, still craving Chinese, I decided to walk to the restaurant as it was only about 8 blocks away. So once I got there I showed the waiter the coupon and he said it was not one of their coupons because their name was not on it. ?? I told him it was and that I had cut it out directly from their ad that I received in the mail. He checked with the manager and then said that it was only good for carryout or delivery. I know for a fact that the ad did not specify this, and I let him know that I tried to call for delivery but no one answered the phone. He said they were busy. I said okay then I would order the meal to go and make it carryout. He then came back and said that he would honor the coupon for in store eating this one time. I took a look at the menu and noticed that the prices were more expensive in the store menu than they are online. I brought this up with the waiter and he said this is correct and not an error. I said, ?So if I get an order for delivery it costs LESS despite the additional packaging and delivery effort than it does for me to come into the restaurant?? He said yes. This really doesn?t make sense to me, but he would not honor the online advertised price. So I ordered 2 entrees. They were both very flavorful and enjoyable. Then when I received the bill, there was an 18% gratuity charge added on. I looked on the menu and it says at the bottom that a 15% gratuity is automatically added to the bill, 18% for parties of 6 or more. I was charged 18% even though it was only me. I tried emailing the company with my feedback and so that I could understand why all of these things were happening but their contact information on their website does not work. Overall the food is very good but I am very disappointed with my experience at Sum Yum Gai and I would be hard pressed to recommend any of my friends or anyone visiting to eat at this establishment unless the service improves. Pros: Food was flavorful, vegetarian choices Cons: They don't know their own coupons or honor online pricing. more

We went to Sum Yum Gai (yes that is the real name) with a group of about 20. We called ahead and literally filled the small restaurant completely. The waiter was overwhelmed with the large group, but did his best and kept his cool. The chinese food was excellent and worth the wait. more

I usually order take-out here for lunch a couple times a week and I'll keep coming back. They have about 20 different lunch and dinner combos to choose from I've tried almost all! The food is tastey, big portions and very reasonably priced! Pros: Great food, super fast and inexpensive. more

Good value, veg chow fun is great with black bean sauce ( not in menu ) ask for it. They deliver too more

I recently moved from San Francisco, where great Chinese food was in abundance. Until now I had yet to find a great take out/delivery Chinese place. Have enjoyed every dish I have eaten here. more

This place was recommend to us upon arriving here. We thought the name was funny and saw it while driving by and stopped in. The service wasn't too bad...wasn't impressive that's for sure! The girls that work there are cute. The food is less than memorable. My husband actually says emphatically ""it $ucks!"" The prices aren't too bad. But the food is honestly not good. We won't go back, but they say it's difficult to find good chinese food in Miami. I guess it's going to be even more difficult because we have had some good chinese food to compare this stuff to. The restaurant was small and quaint, once again, not impressive, but the big-screen tv was quite nice. Pros: Good location in South Beach??? Cons: Everything but the location... more

Having spent time in China, I can say American Chinese is not the same. Having said that there are a few places is the states where the food resembles what you would find in China. South of New York, this is the place for you. Considering the fact that on Miami Beach there are a limited number of Chinese restaurants availabe, this one stands out. I highly recommend it and when in Miami, I would return! Pros: friendly staff, good prices, timely service Cons: parking more

I have no idea why anyone would ever say the food was even good ! What were they thinking ? The food was terrible, i ordered Shrimp Pan fried noodles, the shrimp was over cooked, the noodles was drenched in oyster sauce ! Now i may be Asian and have higher standards than most eating Chinese food but i rather would of eaten at a street vendor. I noticed there was not one Asian person at the desk or as a waitor/waitress so which means an Asian person was NOT even in the kitcken ! Horrible and way over priced - don't ever come here ! Eat at your own risk !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cons: expensive, food was gross, horrible waitress more

Sum Yum Gai is one of my favorite places for a casual, fun meal in South Beach. The atmosphere is great for chowing with friends, and the food is always very good and the menu is fun. It's not on the most attractive block of the Beach...but if it were it would cost 5 times more. Pros: Great Food, Nice Atmosphere, Inexpensive more
