From the same team behind Qi and Lin Asian Bar, Ling Wu is one of the best options for Chinese food out in Oak Hill. The menu is very similar to the other two spots—offering mostly twists on classic Chinese and Chinese-American dishes—but the main reason to visit is for the dim sum menu. During dinner, you’ll be able to order from a smaller menu of about a dozen different dumplings, baos, and egg rolls, but on the weekends during brunch, that expands to about 30+ options. The quality is great (these are some of the best dumplings you can get in Austin) but don’t be surprised when your order of three sui mai clocks in at a whopping $15.

People dine at tables inside Ling Wu. There are wine bottles lining shelves on the wall and hanging pendant lights.
