7 months agoWe went on a weekend and it was very crowded and a line outside but they have an app that you can see your number in line and estimated wait time which is a nice touch since you can walk around while waiting. I can see why the ratings are low since the service was pretty bad (slow for food to come out we waited 40 minutes for our last dish, dismissive staff). Once you look past those things since I find it standard for Asian restaurants, the dim sum quality was pretty darn good! We liked everything we ordered except the deep fried taro balls. Get the: fried pork balls (sweet and savory), shrimp rice paper roll, fried pork belly, sticky rice, soup dumplings

7 months agoReliable taste of Cantonese food and their service has been better than other places I’ve been too. We came here for dinner on a special occasion decided last minute, and everything worked out well. Parking could be tricky if you want to park right in front of Pearl Bay during busy hours, but we’d recommend parking a little far next to Meet Fresh. This way you don’t have to circle to find parking spots and get to have a walk after dining at Pearl Bay - I’m sure you can still make some room for desserts.

7 months agoCame for a birthday dinner. We made a reservation for 6PM for a Saturday. There were 2 wedding banquets happening at the same time. They were extremely busy; but we still received attentive service! The food was fresh and tasty! We had to pre-order the roasted succulent pig. The skin was crispy and meat was tender. We had an enjoyable meal. Will definitely come back again.

7 months agoOne of the best Cantonese restaurant in the Bay area, everything my mouth touched was delicious. The Hargow, Siu mai, sticky rice stuffed in lotus leaves etc. This is my Cali families go to place in Fremont. I must say I know it looks intimidating to see people in line specially when they hand you a number after checking in with the reception but it goes pretty fast and they have a system, we trust the system. All the Staff are super nice and quick

7 months agoCame here for breakfast and dim sum tends to be really good here! There are many people going to this restaurant at the morning, but it’s worth coming here. The Chinese food tends to be authentic compared to most Chinese restaurants. Dim sum is really good here too! The place is really big like there is going to be a convention held here. There will be times where food takes long to be served normally because there’s too many people dining here. However, that doesn’t really concern me since I know how hardworking the staff are when it comes to service. Overall, this place is good to go to and would want to come back again!

7 months agoGood food, good service and large restaurant for seating if you come before noon for Dim-Sum lunch the wait are minimal! Everything we ordered are delicious especially the lobster pen- fried noodles are just wonderful. Lobster are fresh, noodles are crunchy and well seasoned! Other item delivered quickly to our table pipping hot and tasty! Service also top notch. The waiter refills hot water to our teapot without asking, changing our personal plates many times without asking with a bustling weekend lunch crow. We need to come back again!

7 months agoThis was my first time here. I was totally amazed at how big inside it is. We got there at 10 am when they opened . Within one hour, the place filled up. The service was awesome. Our food came quickly, hot & fresh. Employees are friendly and helpful with the menu. Desserts were to die for. I will definitely go back and be there at 10 am.

7 months agoCame here for dim sum on a Sunday and was pleasantly surprised to find another great Chinese restaurant in the area. We called ahead for our large party so we were promptly seated. All the dim sum was delicious and the service was prompt. Will definitely be coming back for more dim sum in the future. Update: came back for dinner and was pleased to find that their dinner dishes are also high quality and delicious. Will definitely be back here for more Chinese food.
