They have lots of pictures on wall so you know what you're ordering on paper. The sizes of this dim sum is humongous. The flavor is good. We also did not eat here we were on the way to see family. So it's nice we can stop here and pick up some goodies and head out. They have drinks in fridge that you can pick out and purchase. Overall super nice people and affordable. Try them out.

It's quite good value for your money, not to mention the dim sum is delicious and big in portion too. The menu is in Chinese and English, so it's easy for anyone to order. Next time, I'll try their dine-in location to see how different that experience is, but this one's great for quick and easy takeout. We only had to wait 10 mins for all of our food. Highly recommend!

No frills sit-down restaurant, but no cart ladies either. That's not a drawback though. You can see all the dim sum dishes steamed up behind the counter where they're picking up table orders and fulfilling take out patrons. Service was as expected. You're greeted with curt nod and efficiency, sat as soon as there is a table, and given your order sheet. Raise your hand or call for a server when you're ready because you'll be waiting forever if you expect someone to come check in. If you're hoping for hand-holding, the nearest din tai fung is 6 miles away.

Ocean Bo is a staple in El Monte and has been around for many years. It's one of those places that…read morealways seems to have a loyal local following. During the day they serve dim sum, and at night they switch over to Cantonese seafood dishes. I've eaten here many times for dim sum. They offer both traditional sit down service and a takeout counter in the front if you're in a hurry. The dim sum is solid and definitely hits the spot. Since I live nearby, it's one of those convenient spots I find myself coming back to. This visit was for dinner. We ordered a fish dish that was pretty interesting (honestly not sure what the exact name was), an oyster omelet, and clams with basil. Everything was tasty and definitely made me go through a couple bowls of rice. One thing I always appreciate is that they still give complimentary dessert at the end of the meal. We got green bean soup and some ma lai gao, which was a nice way to finish dinner. Overall, Ocean Bo is one of those neighborhood gems that has stood the test of time. It may not be the trendiest restaurant around, but it's reliable, serves good Cantonese food, and keeps the locals coming back.

If you know, you know. Forget standing in a line long enough to finish 8 Mile waiting for the "real" dim sum experience-this spot is too busy quietly running circles around the competition. Little Kanupe and I started the morning absolutely hangry (one of my baby soldiers) after striking out at another place (we'll leave them unnamed to protect the innocent). One quick Yelp audible later and we landed at HK Dim Sum. Best comeback since B-Rabbit dropped the mic. The first thing you'll notice is the size of the hand cared for master pieces. Run here for a quick FIFA break, but dont think you're ordering "a little something." Every bite delivers. The chow mein was memorable, so memorable with that wok hay kiss on every noodle just right. Smoky, savory, and ridiculously addictive. Every dish hit with that same "one more bite" energy, and somehow everything showed up almost before we finished ordering. No carts, no gimmicks, no unnecessary fanfare, just legit dim sum crazy great flavor. HK Dim Sum earned a rock-solid five stars. Din Tai Fung is King in most circles, but this place is the Daenerys Dragon Queen dominator. I'm so happy to be part of this sharing of secrets. BTW get the Shumai, chowmein and har gow as starters. Explore the menu. I'm comin back soon and i'm near TJ lol.

Parking is a bit chaotic as it is in the same parking lot as Holiday Inn- we opted to park outside instead. They do validate for parking but I am not sure how strict their enforcement policy is. I appreciate how their fried rice is a little different - with some corn and purple rice. Overall, I would say this is decent for El Monte dim sum, but I would prefer the push cart style of SGV.

My partner and I arrived here on a Saturday around noon…read more We parked in the parking structure, and there were a few spots next to the (not working) escalators, so it didn't seem like parking was too hard to find. Plus with it being a structure, it was shaded which is great in this heat. We walked up the stairs into the plaza, and then walked toward 24 Hour Fitness, went up more stairs and finally made it to Atlantic for some Dim Sum. For a party of two, we were quoted a five minute wait and that's exactly what it was. We both like going here because every time we've gone there has been a very minimal wait time. Of course, the second you sit down, they will ask what type of tea we want, and then all the carts start swarming us asking if we want their offerings. It's so much fun! We ended up ordering our typical: har gao, siu mai, char siu cheung, ham sui gok, char siu bao (baked and steam), as well as lo mai gai. I also like when they drop off the tea, they give you a pitcher of hot water to refill, this comes in handy because I go through a lot of tea. On this day, I saw the Chinese donut, so I also ordered that to have my partner try. My partner also saw the liu sa bao and jumped on that. He was hoping for the tofu pudding, but they said that they had run out. Our highlights were the liu sa bao, and the char siu cheung. Next time I'd pass on the Chinese donut because it was pretty soggy upon arrival. We ended up taking a lot home, and I will say, they made fantastic leftovers. Especially, when we re-steamed the lo mai gai, and air fried the ham sui gok. The environment here is so much fun. They still have the ladies pushing the carts, it's a lot of hustle and bustle, very loud, and lots of families just enjoying time together. As someone who doesn't speak Chinese, I still found it very easy to order. Overall, this is a good place for dim sum with lots of parking, minimal wait time, decent food, and a great ambiance.

Do you ever thought that fried rice can be more expensive than lobster?…read more Well, that is the truth at Atlantic Seafoods in Monterey Park. They have a lot of weekdays specials. Today I tried their lobster special at $16.99 each. There needs to be a minimum purchase of $25.00. This is easy to do. I ordered Salty Fish/Chicken Fried Rice and six plates of dim sums. I simply only need to order three plates, but the weekday dim sum is at $3.68 per plate. At this price point I can afford to order three more plates. I have to mention their Shrimp Puff. Most all other places in SoCal it is a massive piece of dough wrapped around some ground up shrimp and pork. Yes, there are pork inside Shrimp Puff. However, that is beside the point. I don't like eating a big piece of dough. This place's Shrimp Puff is ok. A small plate of Gai Lan (Chinese broccoli) for $3.68 is a good buy. All other dim sums are ok. The final bill with tax and tips was $80.00. This is good considering how expensive dim sum has gotten within the past five years. I will come back to try more dim sum items. Ray out.

NBC is a classic destination for authentic Cantonese dim sum, and they certainly delivered. We ordered a great spread of traditional favorites--the steamed pork dumplings (siu mai) and chicken feet were piping hot with perfectly translucent, delicate wrappers, and the baked pork buns had that amazing sweet, crumbly crust. Everything tasted fresh and authentic, and the portions were satisfying. The service was fast and bustling, capturing that traditional lively dim sum atmosphere. As a nice modern convenience, paying at the end was super smooth because they accept Apple Pay, which made settling the bill quick and hassle-free. If you are looking for classic, high-quality dim sum in the San Gabriel Valley with a great family-friendly vibe, NBC Restaurant is definitely worth the visit. We will definitely be back!

It was a bit of a pleasant surprise and immediately sets a comfortable tone. The service was quite impressive... extremely attentive, friendly, and quick. 8/10 for the food. 10/10 for the price point 10/10 for the service. The food was definitely solid for the price point. There were a few misses, but the dishes that landed were executed really well. I definitely recommend checking this place out if you're in the area! Siu Mai 10/10 - Juicy, plump and perfectly executed. Definitely my favorite dish. Bean Curd Skin Roll in Abalone Sauce 9/10 - Flavorful with an excellent texture. The whole dish was well executed. Beef Chow Fun 8/10 - Solid and flavorful. The beef was tender, and the noodles had a great texture. Yangzhou Fried Rice 8/10 - The rice was moist and the seasoning was spot on. Shrimp Egg 8/10 - Soft and well seasoned. Generously portioned with very plump shrimp. Pork Chop Spicy Salt 8/10 - Crispy and slightly salted. It has a really great texture to it. Salted Fish and Chicken with Eggplant 8/10 - Perfectly seasoned and cooked. Generous portions of chicken, salty fish and eggplant. Chicken Feet 7/10 - It was solid. Not the best, but definitely not bad. House Special Crispy Shrimp Rolls 5/10 - The flavor of the shrimp was okay, but the rolls were really greasy. There were three very small rolls, definitely not my cup of tea. Chili Wonton 3/10 - By far my least favorite dish. The wonton skin tasted very flour-y, and hardly had any filling. The filling was also very bland and the chili oil was very underwhelming. By the way, the tea is free (I know, free tea at a dim sum spot).
