I wanted to take a friend out for her birthday and she picked this place. I'm glad she did because the food is fabulous. I had been here before, a few years back and I was glad to be back. We went on a Friday afternoon and the place was almost full at 12pm, they seem to be short staffed so it took a few minutes to place our order but the food came out really quickly. We ordered a variety of Dim Sum as well as chicken fried rice. The Dim Sum was hot and tasty, you could tell how fresh it was because the individual items were sticking to the wrapper they came in. The buns were flavorful and the skin was not too thick, in fact it was a good as the filing. The presentation is beautiful as well. The rice is a bit expensive at $18:95 but they serve a very large plate of it. They serve tea as well which is $1/person, it's hot and steaming and pairs just right with the food. They also have a variety of packaged items for sale - oranges, dried meat etc. The place is located in large outdoor mall area with plenty of parking but I can see how parking will get difficult during the weekend, especially since it is next to a Japanese grocery store. We were seated at a large round table and others were seated with us as well. You just have to share the space. Its loud and noisy but not obnoxious. Lots of families and locals. I would highly recommend this place! read more

Dim sum is pretty good. 4 star experience if you get only dim sum. Also, bao and Peking duck bao very good. Desert was actual dessert sweet water with fiji berries, eggs, and more, not just the red bean usual. Veggies were good. Abalone and tender greens were sweet and crunchy, beef was stir fried well. Cooked dishes as part of the 10 person set meal bring it down a lot. Hainan chicken was soft like an inorganic chicken (went mostly untouched), lobster was not fresh, and e fu noodles were inedible mush. Sea bass was alright, oil it was fried in tasted a little old. read more

This popular dim sum place rarely disappoints me. But lately the menu has changed quite a bit. We didn't go for the exotic dishes. Just want to see if the qualities also change. The traditional sauté beef dry noodles sold out. But the chef used a different type of rice pan cake to duplicate the flavor, which was not bad. The water spinach cooked with shrimp sauce was something new too. The hydroponic vegetable offered a different kind of texture, which was crispy and fresh. The seafood tofu hot pot brought in the smell and savory of assorted seafoods, Cantonese BBQ, and the tender fried tofus. The service was okay w/ just two waitresses running around. The only thing we felt was the quantity. The family size dishes forced us to do the takeout. I'd rather they prepare the regular size dishes and keep the price below $20/dish. read more

My mother in law and I recently ordered take out at this restaurant and are extremely dissatisfied with the service. There are outdated pricing both on the website and Yelp that make it very confusing for customers. When MIL placed the order on the phone , the woman on the phone confirmed the lobster noodles at a certain price of $21.99, but later on upon pick up charged us more: $26.99. Although it's only $5 more, the fact is that honoring one price and then taking it back and trying to give a million excuses of why you can't refund the difference is a huge mistake in customer service! Anyways, probably won't come back here again unless they make it right. read more

We stopped by Gormet House based upon the recommendation of our hair stylist. They were pretty busy, but we placed a quick to-go order and killed some time by walking around the plaza they are situated in. Prices were on the higher end, but this was off-set by pretty large and generous portions. Although we ordered several dishes and enjoyed them all, our favorite was the mango mochi dessert. Consisting of 3, very large mango mochi's per order. Each mochi was stuffed full of chunks of fresh, sweet and delicious mango pieces. This plaza, although large, gets very busy so parking can get challenging. read more

I came with a group people who really know dim sum and can recognize delicious Cantonese food, while I don't have much experience. We all agreed that the food was overall not delicious, and that it was sub par compared to what we would expect in the Bay Area. Easy to order as they provide you with a laminated menu and a whiteboard marker to mark the items. See accompanying pictures for the to go menu. Food we ordered that we really enjoyed: - shrimp and chive dumplings, this was in their pan fried section of the menu. Delicious and our favorite non dessert item. Strong start to our meal but unfortunately subsequent dishes disappointing - baked egg yolk buns, this was one of the best egg yolk buns we've had. Deliciously salted and creamy on the inside. Other notable food items, but not as flavorful: the lo mai gai, or rice wrapped in lotus leaf was interesting because there was salted egg yolk in it and a nice amount of sausage in it. The shrimp rice roll was also solid. The rest of the food was soooo disappointing. We even started wishing they had just added more salt as it was not flavorful at all. Unfortunately their lobster noodle dish they advertised was not delicious to us. Ambiance is ok - nothing fancy, quick to seat you (they had a few tables left open on a weekend). read more

Gourmet House is a decent place for Cantonese dimsum. They have your standard dimsum options like pork shumai, shrimp shumai, beef rice rolls, shrimp rice rolls, char siu pork buns, egg yolk buns, porridge, wonton soup, egg tarts, and various teas. Those taste like they are from any other dimsum place. What is unique about Gourmet House is their lobster noodles and coffee-glazed pork ribs. The coffee-glazed pork ribs is not on any menu, but by word-of-mouth only! You have to ask the waitstaff, and magically, they know what you are taking about. It is left out of both the English and Chinese menus for some reason, and they do not have a secret menu. 1 star off: Some of their other dishes could use some work. We had an oyster-egg pancake that was very salty. 1 star off: The ambiance is not great. The restaurant seats tables closely together. It is also loud and difficult to have a conversation with those at your own table. read more

Soooo good! Everything was so tasty! The roast duck was nicely cooked with crispy skin. Service was sort of slow but there were a lot of people so understandable. We came here last 1pm and there were still a lot of people. It's a traditional dim sum restaurant. Bathrooms could use a little help but overall we're happy to find this place. read more

I'm surprised I haven't left a review here before. I've been coming here for years to have dim sum with my family. Usually we try to arrive right at opening time so that we don't have to wait (if you've had to wait, you would know how horrendous it is). This is because most parties are families and they like to take their time to enjoy dim sim. Nothing wrong with that, but this restaurant isn't very large! Overall, much like many other chinese restaurants, the service leaves much to be desired, BUT the dim sum tastes great. I think they have my favorite bbq pork pastry puff as it always comes out piping hot. I would say in terms of pricing, this place is more like a mid-tier ($$) as it's not as expensive/fancy as HL Peninsula, but it's also not a grab-n-go spot like Mr. Siu Mai. Great place if you are looking for a casual dim sum spot with good food and no frills. read more

Gourmet House - Dim Sum Near Me - Fremont, California

Overpriced low quality dim sum and small lobster. Service is the same haphazard cantonese ladies yelling at each other, and the ladies bring some trays of plates of old pastry onto your table, pressuring you to eat their egg tarts, even when you just sat down, and the same person walks around and slams it again onto the other side of your table forgetting they already bothered you before. Bathroom hallways packed with their supplies so it is uncomfortable to stand and wait and pass each other. Otherwise the 8 big tables for x10, and 8 tables for 2, that they move around for smaller parties is okay for large parties but their cheap projections of satellite tv blips and stops when you hear them use the kitchen tools. Not going back, too many better choices for dim sum. The only thing tolerable to eat again was the leek and shrimp dumplings and the fish and tofu claypot (not in a claypot). Avoid the e lobster. read more

Came on a weekday and 3/4 of their tables were taken. Mix of couples up to parties of 6. We ordered chicken salad, Peking duck, braised tofu with mixed mushrooms, bitter melon chicken, beef chow mein, and west lake soup. We spent about $170 with tip. For the most part, the portion matched the price and we had leftovers. The Peking duck was the most expensive item on our bill at $42 for a whole duck. It was just ok since there was not much seasoning on it. All the other dishes tasted per usual, but do not get the chicken salad, which consisted of lettuce, chicken, and cucumbers. The dressing tasted only of mayonnaise and lemon. We asked the servers what was in the dressing to confirm, but they avoided the question. When I said it tasted of just mayo and lemon, they said, "Oh, yeah. That's the dressing." ???? It had no Asian flavor (not even sesame oil) at all. I went home and made my own dressing and added cilantro. So much better! I don't like bitter melon, but my spouse does. The chicken with bitter melon was the best dish that we ordered because I even enjoyed it. The bitterness was mild and tolerable. The service was great! There were 2 ladies and they were on top of it. Overall, we'd still return if we're in the area. I would give 3.5 stars, but rounded up for the service. read more

Excellent choice for Cantonese style Chinese food. Its quality is very good, only slightly less sophisticated as the Koi Palace or Peninsula or Mayflower chains. Their prices are above average, but the quantity of each dish is 50% more than other restaurants. Service is Chinese style so don't expect top notch service. But, it's definitely adequate if you're not finicky or demanding. Replenish tea & water promptly when asked. And dishes are served piping hot! Excellent! Decor is more of a family style and nothing fancy but clean. A worthwhile regular visit for quality food all around. read more

Service 2/5 The only bad experience we received from dining here was the tip culture. An auntie came to ask us why tip wasn't at least 15%, we showed her that we calculated the tip from the subtotal (pretax) and she proceeded to leave by saying "whatever, I don't care" in the rudest way possible. To me, that's a big turn down from restaurants. The tipping culture is just so corrupt in the Bay Area... Food 4/5 Food is solid and portions are great. Ambiance 4/5 Typical canto restaurants you will find in the Bay Area. Most diners speak canto. Dining area is quite noisy. read more

It is my first time visiting the Gourmet house for dimsum. I liked they are all fresh made not from the push cart. Most items are pretty decent in flavors and portion. In my taste, the food are not too oily, salty and MSG. The services are very satisfied, we requested and received hot sauce, red vinegar, mustard etc in no time. Hot tea were refilled as soon as we put tea pot cap upside down. Most diners are family style and seniors. I would imagine it means high CP value. I saw some misc Chinese grocery packages next to cashier for sale is interesting. I will visit it again during weekday for sure. read more

Meet up with friends to try Gourmet house in fremont. Is next to osaka supermarket. They have very extensive menu with some unusual traditional ingredients on their menu. Tried Lucid Ganoderma firat time with soup (靈芝燉湯) was a unique and healthy choice. Slightly bitter, great favor. We order coffee ribs, topped with whipped cream. The German pork knuckle (德國豬腳) is always a hearty favorite with crispy skin! We also got dishes with fish and red neck clams. All dishes are so delicious. Ending with lobster and noodles and complmentary dessert with cocunt milk with sago and taro. Service is not bad, food came pretty quick. Ambiance is ok, not compare to pearl bay or koi palace but is good for casual meal. read more

I came here yesterday for the first time and really enjoyed the food! We ordered sweet and sour korubata pork, General Tso's chicken, gailan with oyster sauce, Peking duck, spare ribs, and fried rice. The waiter also said they could use the duck carcass to make soup so we tried that as well. I really enjoyed all of the food. The only thing that didn't really stand out to me was the Peking duck, but the soup was absolutely delicious and refreshing. My only complaint is the fried rice came last after all the sides were ordered. It would've been nice to eat the fried rice with the sides. At the end of dinner they also served us dessert soup. I highly recommend checking out this Chinese restaurant! read more

My friends and I came here for dim sum on a Sunday morning. This place (and the plaza) can get pretty busy, so we got there before opening to secure a table. Once they opened, we chose a table to sit at. Food: You can order food two ways. You can check items you want off the list and give them to a server. The second way is you can pick items from the servers who walk around with items in a more traditional dim sum service. We got all of the classic items: har gow, siu mai, bbq pork bun (steamed and baked), egg tarts, egg custard buns, rice noodle rolls, etc. All of the items were pretty good and decently priced. Service: Service is what you'd expect from a dim sum restaurant. Everyone is pretty busy and running around. It took some time to get our teas and waters, but I didn't expect anything more. TL;DR - not a bad place for dim sum! make sure to get there early. read more

Came to this mall at 9pm and this was the only place open. Even osaka supermarket next door was closing I went in and ask if they were open. The lady said sure. +1 star for letting me in and staying open for me I decided on the lobster noodle that was advertised on the banner in front of the place I thought it was pretty good. Got a whole lobster. Small-medium size. Still not too bad for the price. All noodle places these days are $20 a pop now. So, why not splurge a little and get a lobster with the noodles I just gave her $30 cash. Very satisfy with the noodles and they stay open for me. No other customer in there. read more

Gourmet House has become a family favorite of my household. Whenever there are any birthdays or holidays, this is our go-to restaurant. The service is exceptionally punctual, delicious entrees, and welcoming staff. There are always clean utensils, cups, plates, you name it! Relative to other sit-in Chinese restaurants, it is inexpensive. Party for four and 7 entrees amounted to ~$180. Some of my personal favorites include the taro and beef, clam, and egg tofu entrees. The taro and egg are simply a perfect marriage that balances each other out, the clams are meaty, and the egg tofu is silky! Definitely support this small business, because the staff are courteous and put great love into their dishes! read more

Reasonably good dim sum with a nice size parking lot and easy access from the freeway. What more do you want from a lunch spot? I had lunch here for the first time recently with a friend. We tried many of the usuals - har gow, siu mai, sticky rice, chow fun, fried pork dumplings and rice noodle with shrimp. We also had the egg custard tart (which were excellent). Service was pretty quick. On a Tuesday at noon, the restaurant was pretty busy and most of the tables were filled. I would definitely come back here again. read more

Gourmet House is situated in the Mission Square plaza right in between Osaka Marketplace and Happy Lemon. I wanted to bring home some dim sum for lunch after grocery shopping on a Monday morning and decided to check them out after hearing some good things about their food. They were already pretty busy for lunch time and most of the tables were occupied. I picked out a few dishes and was told that since all their food is made to order, it would take around 20-30 minutes. I ordered 5 small plates (steamed bbq pork bun, chicken feet with black sauce, spareribs with black bean sauce, sesame balls, deep fried shrimp dumpling), the pan fried turnip cake with xo sauce, and their beef chow fun ($59 before tips). I honestly can say every dish was very delicious and tasted authentic. I thoroughly enjoyed everything I ordered and there was even enough leftovers for my lunch the next day. I think I want to eat there in person next time since some of the items that were supposed to be fried got a little soggy by the time I got home to eat. Nevertheless, it was still very good and will be one of my go tos in the area! read more

My friend knew I loved salty egg and she suggested I try out their baked bun! (Which, I ended up ordering the wrong one. So I have to go back and try, lol). It's located in a busy shopping center and parking is a bit difficult at times. The place itself is huge with lots of tables and wasn't busy when I went. It's a cute ambiance where you can sit down and dine with the entire family. Ordered: -lobster noodles: this was alright. I wouldn't order it again. It's packed with lobster but the flavor was pretty bland -shu mai: these are gigantic! You can definitely taste the freshness -pan fried chives and shrimp: also a fave! The chives paired nicely with the shrimp and this was juicy. I loved it! -charcoal salty egg: it wasn't the best salty egg I've had and I wouldn't order this again. -spinach dumpling with shrimp: THE STAR! The one I HIGHLY recommend! I'm obsessed with the spicy fish sauce topping! It literally made the dish stand out for me! I can eat only this whenever I'm here. It was the best! Now, this place is pricey for dim sum. It was $7/plate. You do get the quality and the portions are justifiable for the price. Personally, I would only go here if I was craving the spinach dumpling or family's in town. read more

Food is great and portions are bigger than your usual dim sum places. Usually I would do 2.5 x number of people then round down to order the right amount of food but with this place you can do 1.5 x total persons then round up. Oolong tea used real leaves instead of a tea bag and got plenty strong near the end of the kettle. This is what we got: - Radish cake with XO sauce came out crispy and flavorful. - Hargow shrimp was really good and skin was thicker and flavorful - Shiumai was 1.5x bigger than usual - Steamed spareribs were not porky, taro slices were bigger too so you can actually eat it. read more

My favorite local dim sum spot for dine in and take out! No frills, order by marking a sheet, and it's common to share a table with others if you have a small party. Food comes out quickly and is super fresh! They also come out with some interesting innovative dishes, which the wait staff will come around to tables to offer - some hit and some don't, but I'm always happy to try something new each time. This last time, they had red bean-salted egg yolk baked buns, and a sticky rice wrapped in puff pastry. My absolute favorite is their eggplant dishes - they always get the perfect texture on the stuffed eggplant, and they're generously proportioned. I like to order eggplant typhoon shelter style (which is currently off menu, but so so delish.) Items I think are better elsewhere: - Fong Zao (chicken feet) - the texture is fine but I think some other local spots have better flavor. - Lo Bat Go (turnip cake) - theirs is really just okay. Mayflower or New Hwong Kok in Milpitas make this way better, also New Hwong Kok is cheaper. Lastly, lemme put you on their lobster E-fu mein! It's increased in price a few times over the years, but it's still an excellent deal. Note that during holidays, you can't get this for the advertised price, there's a holiday mark up. read more

It is located in the same plaza as the Pineapple bun bakery and the Osaka Japanese supermarket. Dim sum was okay, nothing special! The restaurant is small not as big as other dim sum places. They don't have pecking duck, pork belly or other specialty items so don't expected too much on big items dim sum, but they had all the dim sum items. The chicken feet with black bean sauce was good and the crunchy filling wrap rice noodle was probably the two items that was stand out as other items just below average. They seem to be understaff as we have to waited for the staff for other items. read more
