Reception
In 2013, Julia Wayne of Eater Seattle wrote, "Dim sum, and the offerings at Harbor City are among the best in town. With plenty of salty, sweet, meaty, bite-sized delights, even the more indecisive among us can find satisfaction."[7] The website's Leonardo David Raymundo and Ryan Lee included Harbor City in a 2021 list of 14 "delightful" dim sum establishments in the Seattle metropolitan area.[2]
