Sifu Wong Kitchen is a really solid addition to the South Bay dim sum scene. It's tucked inside the…read moreRamada Hotel in Sunnyvale, and the setup is surprisingly nice--clean banquet seating, way less cramped than your usual dim sum spots, and they have huge TVs all over the place. We actually watched the World Cup final here and the atmosphere was awesome. The dim sum is traditional Hong Kong style, and the quality is definitely there. You definitely need to get the Black Gold Salty Egg Yolk Buns. They look cool with the black and gold style, and the molten salted egg yolk center is perfectly rich without being overly sweet. The Lychee Shrimp Balls are super unique too; they look exactly like real lychees on the outside but are stuffed with a snappy shrimp paste that isn't greasy at all. For the classic stuff, the Har Gaw and Siu Mai hit the spot--the skins hold up well without tearing and the pieces are nice and plump. The Baked BBQ Pork Buns are also great, with that crispy, sweet polo-style topping and a good amount of savory pork filling inside. Service can be a little slow on busy weekends since the place gets packed with families, but the staff keeps the kitchen moving as fast as they can. If you want high-quality Cantonese comfort food, excellent dim sum, and a great space to catch a game, this spot is definitely worth a visit.

Visited again, this time with a bigger group, which allowed us to try a lot more of the menu…read more We started with the Tri-Color Platter (Octopus, Jelly Fish & Green Seaweed Salad), which made for a great, refreshing starter. Soup Dumplings, Shrimp Rice Roll, and Steamed Sparerib, all were good as usual. Half Peking Duck was a highlight, love the perfectly thin and crispy skin. Fried E-Fu Noodle with Lobster - the lobster is fresh and huge, great flavor without being overly salty nor greasy. Black Pepper Beef Fillet with Assorted Mushroom, I like the tender beef and the mushrooms were well seasoned. Sautéed Chinese Broccoli (kailan) with Dried Flounder Flake, the flavor was good, but the kailan stems were cut too large, difficult to eat. We finished with satisfying desserts, Black Gold Salty Egg Yolk Bun was excellent with the lava effect. Mango Pomelo Sago was awesome, and the Snow Lotus Seed Peach Resin was really good and not too sweet. Everyone was full and happy.

There's street parking though. They don't really have carts moving around with the dim sum plates. You order by the menu checking off items you want. I would say food is okay. It comes out hot instead of being in a cart for a few hours. Not really a hole in a wall but it is empty on a weekday.

I have not had Fujian fried rice in many years and so trying theirs was was nostalgic. I enjoyed the wetness of the sauce on the fried rice was what I was after. There's bits and pieces of seafood in the sauce so the flavor compliments well with the rice. Their dimsum is good, typical quality and taste. We'll come back to try more of their items. Jade Cathay is a typical Chinese restaurant in terms of service. I'm not docking off a point either since it's not a top priority for places like this -- I prefer not to be too bothered during my meal. Definitely come back here more.

Here is my review and a little background. I've grown up eating dim sum - my family is Chinese and…read moreI grew up in Hawaii. Service - service was awesome. Food came to our table immediately on the carts - food was NOT dry, food was NOT cold and there was an abundance of fabulous options. Cost- if you aren't paying attention to inflation then you probably won't know the cost of actual food not prepared by Sysco (which most restaurants use for their dishes). I would not say this place is expensive for the quality of dim sum that was provided and if you're looking for cheap, sub par dim sum, don't sit down and eat here because you're being served on a cart. Food- did you know that this dim sum restaurant has 3 different chefs? One for bbq, one for dim sum and one for fried items? The quality of the food was 10/10, the options 10/10, the speed 10/10. Overall we will be coming back here for all the special events in our family! Shout out to our waiter who took my 3 kids behind the scenes to show them the fish tanks and talk story with them before slipping them a couple cookies Fact: if you want good dim sum and you want an experience (not like Din Tai Fung) then this is the place.

The host Leslie managed the crowd very well! What we ordered Chicken feet, black bean spare ribs, shrimp dumplings, soup dumplings, shrimp rice roll, bbq pork rice roll, Chinese broccoli, honey walnut prawns, bbq pork buns, XO sauce stir fried rice rolls, stewed beef gizzards, fried rice, salt &pepper squid, Peking duck We definitely over ordered and had loads of leftovers. The highlights were the chicken feet, honey walnut prawns, sat & pepper squid, and the bbq pork steamed rolls. Every item came out fresh, hot, clean, and tasted really nice. No overwhelming MSG after effects nor taste. Our server Will was very helpful. We tipped cash but paid by card, accidentally totaled max tip into the receipt total but he made sure to clarify with us before charging. We appreciate the honesty! Our busser was really helpful too, cleared the table and got us everything we asked for Have been here many times and will continue to! Definitely worth the visit for quality Cantonese dishes!!

I don't know even how to begin this review, because this place was BEYOND AWFUL. We have been here…read moremany times over the years because of our Chinese family friends. First, let's start with cleanliness. The bathroom was disgusting. If this is where the cooks relieve and wash their hands, yikes! Literally a biohazard. Trash overflowing and everything was sticky and the toilets were very dirty. Just yikes. Also if you look at the dining inspection score on the Santa Clara county website, it scored a literal 20/100. This is worse than competitors for kitchen cleanliness. This explains the many food poisoning reviews here. We got served raw food and things that looked a bit spoiled here and luckily we spotted it and didn't get sick. Read the inspection report and it's really disgusting. I'm not sure how this place is still open. I get service at Chinese restaurants serving primarily Chinese immigrants isn't top tier, but this place takes it to the next level in being abysmal. The front desk staff is belligerent and they DO NOT RESPECT YOUR RESERVATION and make you stand outside and wait for up to 30 minutes. This happened to us a couple times. Also if you are an English speaker/non Chinese speaker, the front desk staff only speaks mandarin for the most part so good luck too if you are a Cantonese speaker. They also hold and reserve table numbers for refused to jump the waitlist and reservations. That was just the host staff, the waiters were not better. Waiters were very hard to flag down and sometimes they see you and ignore you because they don't want to serve you and do their job. They also are too busy sometimes and seem overworked so their employer (a very rich duo of brothers) need to treat their employees better and train them better so they have a better attitude for customers. We also had one waiter when cleaning our table poured our water glasses into a bowl then dumped in onto the carpet onto the ground which was a first for me and my family. This was very memorable in a bad way. The environment is also very uncomfortable to dine in. The seating is packed in so tight that it's so loud you can't hear the other people at your table. It's also a fire hazard since several emergency exits were visibly blocked by tables, chairs, or people crowding at the entrance. I've seen reviews here and on Google claiming to have reported the restaurant to the fire marshal. This seems to be true because there were several times the restaurant de densified the dining room before densifying it again weeks later. If a fire broke out, this would be deadly due to exits being blocked and the restaurant being over capacity. This place is just waiting for something really bad to happen. This place is also very expensive and claims to be an elevated authentic dim sum experience targeting Chinese immigrants and ABCs. And it sucks for the price paid given the food, service, and environment (and the literal fire danger they put you in) Finally, as many have complained here, there is a mandatory 18% gratuity and they demand a tip on top of it. They hide it from their menu so you don't find out, but that's illegal in California to hide a mandatory gratuity. Honestly, the gratuity isn't worth it for the nasty service and food anyways. The only have it because the owners know their restaurant is so bad they have to put a gratuity because otherwise people won't pay tips. What a joke of a business, I'm not sure why so many people still support it by singing its praises here and patronizing a restaurant that clearly doesn't care about either its employees or customer.

We don't eat at a lot of Chinese seafood banquet restaurants in the Bay Area, but we came here for…read morea family dinner, and it reminded me of HL peninsula and various seafood / dimsum places in Vancouver. Pearl Bay has high ceilings and a gigantic screen, and it seems like a lot of wedding banquets take place here. They have a hot deal weekday special that's $488 for a table of 10-12, and it was a lot of food. I think they limit it to a few tables a night. Service was not bad - they refilled ice water multiple times, which was surprising for a Chinese restaurant. That said, it would have been nice if they had actually announced what dishes we were getting. The menu included: - Chicken soup - Stir fried beef with vegetables - Cold marinated chicken and geoduck - Fish maw with pea sprouts and shiitakes - Fried egg tofu - Steamed fish - Twin lobsters with vermicelli - Suckling pig with steamed buns - Fried rice The highlight was the fish roe fried rice: great texture and flavor. Other things were variable in flavor. For example, the lobster was good, but the vermicelli texture and flavor were lacking. The banquet menu we got was good value and was more than enough food. I am definitely interested in trying their weekend dim sum.

So, maybe the lower rating will scare others off. Personally, I'll enjoy eating here over and over again. BTW, their baked pork bun, chowfun, and tofu wrapped pork/mushroom dishes are delicious.

My second time here for lunch. There's no wait on a weekday last time. 3 of us came here on…read moreSaturday around noon, and had to wait for about 20 minutes for a table, which wasn't bad at all. Even though their parking lot had a lot of cars, it's so big that there're still plenty of spaces. Their inside was huge as well. Because of the high ceiling, it didn't feel too crowded, even though it was packed. They had a lot of servers, too, though getting the attention of one took a while. Our server highly recommended their sea bass 2 ways (congee and chow fun) on their daily special menu. We would have ordered that if they still had fish at ~2lb, but they only had fish at ~3lb, which would be too big for us, as we would like to order some dim sum as well. So, we just ordered from their dim sum menu. The 2 different house teas we ordered came out pretty quickly, but it took a while for the food to come. The Sauteed Turnip Cake in XO Sauce was the dish I liked the most. It could still use more XO sauce, though. Pork & Crab Roe Siu Mai was gigantic; taste was normal. I wished they had chili sauce at the table. We're too busy catching up and didn't bother to flag down someone to get some. The Fried Bean Curd Skin Roll w/ Shrimp was not bad, just a bit oily. The Fried Chinese Donut Wrapped in Rice Noodle w/ Dried Shrimp was on point; it came with a peanut sauce on the side. The Chicken Feet w/ Black Bean Sauce were well cooked and off the bones. The Salted Egg Yolk Lava Black Bun wasn't too sweet; the inside was more runny than we expected. We're already stuffed after having 6 dim sum dishes. Overall, dim sum was solid, but on the more expensive side. While their service was typical for a Chinese restaurant in the Bay Area, they did apply a 16% service charge to the bill automatically, which was stated on their menu.
