Hole in the wall. But excellent dim sum. Freshly steamed when ordered. Very good prices. Very small place. Only few sit-in tables. Lot of take-outs. read more

TLDR: Everything we ordered was delicious! I was a bit shook by the price but I didn't realize it included multiple pieces with each order. They do not accept credit cards for orders less than $25. Recommendations: - BBQ Buns (one of the best I've had recently) - I did not order the minis, but the normal size wasn't too large/overwhelming and was the perfect size for a snack. - Sesame Buns - Egg tarts Service: Pretty efficient. My order was ready in 5 minutes. Ambiance: I ordered my food to-go but it seemed like a nice place to sit for a quick meal. If you do order to-go, consider calling in ahead of time. read more

Dim Sum Box SG - Sesame buns, egg tarts, and BBQ buns. The total of the items pictured cost $27. - Dim Sum Near Me - San Gabriel, California

We went right when they opened at 8:00 AM. Seated immediately and given a checklist to order from at $4.99 a dish. Tasted the following: 1. Sesame Egg Yolk Bun 2. Shu Mai - the favorite 3. Fried Pork Donut 4. Shrimp Har Gao 5. The Shrimp Rice Noodle 6. Mini-Sticky Rice Wrap Overall, the dishes were pretty good. I would recommend the Shu Mai since it was the crowd pleaser. We also did carry out with the Chicken Feet. For a place to open at 8:00 AM, it was nice. The Plaza is small and next door is a Wells Fargo. This location does recommend cash for orders under $25 dollars. read more

This is a tiny hole in the wall. I happened to come across it when I stopped in to CVS. Ordered the Har Gau, Siu Mai, Shrimp Rice roll and Deep fried dumplings. All were very on point with the exception of the deep fried dumplings which lacked filling and flavor. Overall I enjoyed it that I came back with my daughter. I feel it's very affordable. read more

Dim Sum Box SG - Har Gau and Siu Mai - Dim Sum Near Me - San Gabriel, California

It's a small place...4 tables for 4 each. They were very attentive & the food came out quickly. Most of the items were basic and it satisfied our craving. Don't order the egg custard tart or red bean sesame balls. These were definitely tasteless. I give every business a chance to wow me, but this one did not. read more

Came around 11 on a Monday so it wasn't busy. It's very clean and modern inside.There are only a few tables in the restaurant so I can see how this place would get busy during rush hour times. The lady that took my order was really nice and didn't have a problem answering any questions I had. If you want to pay with card there is a $25 minimum and they also accept Apple Pay. I ordered har gow, shumai, shrimp rice noodle roles, and the ham sui gok. All were really good and filling. The only thing I have to say is that the ham sui gok could use more filling. read more

Dim Sum Box SG - Receipt - Dim Sum Near Me - San Gabriel, California

The parking could be a little bit chaotic, it took me awhile to park on a Thursday. The restaurant looks clean. The staff at the cashier was friendly and helpful. I ordered to-go. The dim sum selections is limited. However, with reasonable price (most dishes are $4.99) and decent quality, I couldn't complain. My favorites were the deep fried pork dumplings (outside was crunchy, the dough was perfectly made, and the meat inside was flavorful) and the Sponge cake (very spongy, soft and the sweetness was on point). I wish they can keep the pricing and quality. I will come back! read more

Everything is fantastic here! This is by far the best dimsum I've ever had! My favorite is the sticky rice. They import the rice from Japan and you can really tell the difference! If you're in the area, treat yourself to the best dimsum around! read more

This place is awesome for quick dim sum to-go. The quality of the food is fresh, made to order, good size for the price (avg $5 an order) and very comparable to larger restaurant. I like how they have all the essential dim sum staples and mini size, making it really convenient for 1 person. Ive reco shrimp dumpling, Leek dumpling, turnip cake. Every time I've gone, the one lady working is super kind even while handling orders and serving. $25 credit card minimum. It would be awesome if the menu could expand to other staples, like a few canto style veggie dishes :) read more

I just happened to stop by for a quick bit because I needed to take care of some banking business. I actually had planned to take it to take it go, but after reviewing the menu and ordering hot tea, I decided to eat there. The lady was so sweet and nice. I ordered a few items off the menu. My little one loved it. Everything was fresh and tasty. Fast service, clean, and very reasonable prices. It's surprisingly cheap even with inflation going on. I would definitely go there again. read more

DEEEELICIOUS! And affordable! And quick. Everything is good and fresh. One thing is I also ordered chicken feet but it wasn't charged or included.... Maybe my mark was not in the middle of the box so she didn't see it. Make sure you put an X in the order sheet so they don't miss anything! read more

A nice new little to go dimsum outlet in San Gabriel. I want to say "hole in the wall", but unable to because it's new, and also a newly remodeled storefront. Walking inside, you'll barely see around four tables. Yes, it's that small. You order through a paper menu that you mark up. However, their dimsum choices is not abundant. Basically, only the popular dishes such as the wrap sweet rice in banana leaf, Har Gaos, Siu Mais, Don Tats Custard, and a few others. I basically listed what I like to eat. Haha. Everything is freshly made daily. I could see and hear people in the back kitchen constantly making batches of food so it'll stay fresh and hot. Each dimsum order is $5. Which is pretty much market price everywhere else. Unlike the actual restaurants, you'll save on the tip and the per person tea charge. That's awesome, because the money saved, you'll get to order more food. Lol. The ladies there are friendly, they help order and pack everything together to go. read more

Wanted to try this place next to TAM's, looking for recommendations. Meanwhile took pictures of their menu and prices . Seems a little cheaper than the dimsum Togo place across the traffic light on San Gabriel Blvd. read more

This place is fantastic. Born and raised in LA. Growing up in this culture people love to criticize nit picky stuff. Its not a restaurant. Its a take out place. A few tables,not a service restaurant. The stuff on their menu is the most common items we've ordered from any sit down dim sum restaurant. They focus on quality of the items. Most of the stuff is cook to order thus why its "slow" as people describe. We just had a 100 day party for my granddaughter for 120 people. Over a 1000 pieces of dim sum. I drove from Yorba Linda to Alhambra because of the food and the character of the people running the business. Mindy not only packaged the items in quality aluminum steam containers but provided foam to go boxes. Nice touch. There was alot of leftovers and we are still getting raving complimentary texts constantly. In a time where overall food supply quality has suffered, give them a break and kudos for upholding great quality food. Support them. I believe their other location closed down. I wish they weren't so far from us. read more

On Thanksgiving morning in November, my sister and I decided to order take out here. We arrived 10min early and found parking. The staff lady was nice and allowed us to order from the paper menu. The room looks big with 4 tables of four. The menu offer basics not too grand which I like. We filled out the menu and waited while listening to Cantonese music. We ordered egg tarts, Sui mai, ham su gook, meatballs, steam bbq baos, beef cheung fun and got all the orders packaged. The ham su hook skin was crunchy with good filling, the Sui mai and egg tarts was good, the meatballs size was small and still good. The cheung fun didn't melt in my mouth and still good. Overall dim sum was good. Parking can be hard to find depending on the time of day. read more

Found this little hole-in-the-wall and was pleasantly surprised. The dim sum is made to order and tastes super fresh. The siu mai was huge and really delicious. There isn't a big variety, but it was enough to satisfy my dim sum craving. Customer service was a little lacking, but overall the food was great and I'd come back just for the fresh-made dim sum. read more

Ordered 4 items to go (turnip cake, chicken sticky rice, beef rice roll, egg tarts) and only the radish cake was good. Unfortunately, the beef rice roll was not cooked entirely, so we had to throw that away. Egg tarts were very pasty looking and did not taste good. Staff was friendly, but not sure if I'll be returning. read more

I like it that it's made to order here, really fresh. Price is average compared to other take out dim sum places. This place looks pretty clean. The older lady was really nice. The younger lady with the glasses, not very nice at all, said good morning to her, she didn't respond back at all, looks like she doesn't even want to work there. read more

Think fresh, plump, juicy, and perfect flavor. What a great find for a small hole in the wall! But it's kept clean and the food was delicious. I haven't had the fried stuff but the basics were delicious. Su mai, har gow, soupy dumplings, and pai kwat/black bean steamed pork ribs... really nice. The wrapper for the har gow was slightly chewy and perfect thickness. Su mai, large, bouncy amd juicy. A must try. I'll be back. Bon appetit. I ordered 7 orders and it was 40$. Plenty of food. read more

Good dim sum. Taste was great. But the service was horrendous. It took them 40 minutes to fill my order. The haphazard way in which they fill orders is awful. They fill multiple orders at once, with no order. Meaning, my order was being filled at the same time as someone who came in 25 minutes after I placed my order. It makes no sense. Plenty of other choices around. I will go visit another place next time. read more

Embassy kitchen is back!! At first, I thought it's the chain dim sum place as the one I saw in diamond bar but it turns out to be different. When I went there for the first time, I thought the server looks familiar. Then I was like, a few items on the menu look familiar. Finally I can't help but ask the server if it's the same as the old embassy kitchen in sgv and it's confirmed. Almost all the dim sum was $4.99. I ordered the chicken feet, shrimp noodles, turnip cake. Everything is pretty fresh, well seasoned, good portion. With inflation and all, I was shocked when it was so empty. Well..I know the decor looks more like that of HK cafe and it's smaller since it's only 4 tables. I'll be honest that they don't have a lot of variety, but if you're looking for good quality food with reasonably priced dim sum, this is the place to go! read more

Small place, but they make all their dim sum there. Food was delicious, and the service is as expected.

First time visiting, went on a Sunday morning to bring back home. Glad it's open early, easy to order but would probably call before coming in. Takes a bit to wait for food. But definitely worth the wait. Bought enough for 2 days worth of dim sum. read more

It's great for what it is. This is the same staff and same dim sum from the OG Embassy Kitchen in San Gabriel. They open at 8 AM and are very busy with takeout orders. The actual shop is very small, and they share a parking lot with Tam's noodle house so it can get busy. Everything is $4.99, which is considered pretty affordable these days. Tea is $1.98 per person. There's only a few tables for those that want to dine in. Service pretty good. The staff was very kind. Overall, the only dimsum they do not have from the original menu is there sesame and peanut mochi, which you can still get at Colette in Pasadena from Chef Lai. This is not related to dimsum box in West Covina. The staff mentioned that they may be trying to expand their menu and hours in the future to be on dimsum, but that really depends on how things go. Overall, if you want something casual and simple, without breaking the bank, I would consider either ordering takeout from here or dining in if you feel like it. It's nothing fancy, but I enjoyed it for what it was. read more

I found this place on accident and let me tell you it's the best dim sum, I used to go NBC, but it's too expensive. This place , the service was very friendly. Dim Sum comes piping hot and fresh. I would definitely recommend this dim sum spot to family and friends. read more

Flavor was pretty solid! We ordered through ubereat so the price was about $2 more expensive per dish but currently running a promo where u order $30 u get $8 off. I liked all their dishes better than Hong Kong Dim Sum on Las Tunas. Would drop in to pick up next time! read more

Family style take out and dine in dim sum. Good food and friendly services. Will come back!!!!

The restaurant is small but clean and comfortable. You can dine in or Togo but most ppl will Togo. For dine in, hot tea is available and about $2/ person and most dishes are $4.99. Food came out fresh with perfect temperature. We ordered most of the popular dishes and they all were good. The one minus is the waiting time and it applies for all Togo and dine in. If they can speed up the service, this is will be a popular place for locals who love dimsum. read more

I ordered to go from this place as I've been on the hunt for the best dimsum. Their best dish is the embassy special kitchen buns. Reminded me of Tim Ho Wan. The fried items are super greasy. The sesame balls and football have little filling. For the price, it's not bad. I would prefer dimsum king for other dimsum dishes. read more

Quick, convenient dim sum place! Their shumai is big, plump and delicious! Har gow is also fresh and delicious too. Their mini lotus wrapped sticky rice comes in two per order and is a generous portion. Pretty much everything except for their chicken feel (my favorite item in dim sum but the flavoring isn't my taste here- just a personal preference) that I have tried, I have been very happy with. I usually order to go so it's very convenient. Everything is freshly made and reasonably priced. I recommend it:) read more

What nice little treat to enjoy dim sum at a strip mall. It's a little cafe with all your favorite dim sum. You sit yourself at a table and they bring you a menu.
