    The food was great! Pretty expensive so be careful what you order. Had to remind the waiters several time for our drinks and they just kept forgetting. There's so much going on in there I don't blame them. Even water was hard to get. The environment is loud but in a family comfort way which makes the experience nostalgic. I love chaos around the table.

    Had a great time enjoying dim sum. They gave a huge menu with lots of options. There's a line outside so recommend to go earlier to get your seat. Service is very fast and quick. The restaurant is big enough to host wedding banquets. Lots of lighting and huge screens. Felt very modern Chinese restaurants

    My second time here for lunch. There's no wait on a weekday last time. 3 of us came here on Saturday 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.

    Had a wonderful experience dining here for a weekend wedding! HL is part of an Asian plaza and has lots of parking. It's a grand space as expected for a Chinese restaurant. The service staff were fast and efficient in cleaning up finished plates and placing the apps and entrees of the set menu. The bartenders were great and friendly with the drink service. The venue has a dessert container with notable brands like Haagen-Dazs and melona bars. The whole restaurant was grand that can occupy a stage, projectors, and lots of fun lights. The food was a great set menu primary of seafood dishes like abalone, lobster noodles, seafood salad, and so much more. Great experience!

    Not your traditional Hong Kong style dim sum place. The Resturant tries to emphasize higher quality dishes and adds in additional elements to "dress it up". It's fine if you're in to that but I was hoping for a back to basics place. Service was great; Resturant was clean; and food was good. Was pricey for a dim sum regular spot but is good for a one off experience.

    Came here with 11 people and bill came out to $355 with tip which is decent in this day and age. We ordered a lot of different dishes but they said they ran out of Chow fun so had to replace it with a different noodle dish but then ended up not brining it till we were done eating everything else. Some notes - The steamed dumpling skins tended to stick to each other and break while picking them up. The spare ribs were tender but a little bland. Needed black beans The shui mai are good but a little too fluffy which makes me think they have a lot of fat in them. The steamed rice rolls were nice. The gai lan was a bit fibrous and tough. The stir fried snow pea shoots with bean curd skin was a little bland. The durian puffs were good!

    They have some really good dishes like their fried rice and their fish-based soups (seafood is great here). My favorite thing is still when you request a fresh fish and it gets prepared multiple ways however you need a large party. The kicker is I've been here 3 times across a couple years now: 1st time was phenomenal, 2nd time we ordered what the waiter recommended and it was both expensive and terrible tasting. This recent time we had 2 out 3 good dishes, the 3rd one did not match the photo at all:

    We usually come here with a big group and get a room reservation, then order the set menu. The restaurant is always bustling on weekends, so without a reservation, would definitely expect a wait time. The dim sum carts have large variety and are fresh and fast, but the set menu helps alleviate the chaos and the decision of having to pick what to get haha. The food gets delivered fast and is fresh. The set menu has a large variety of different foods, from meat like duck and sweet / sour chicken, to veggies like mushroom and snap peas, to seafood like fish and lobster and scallops, as well as soup and fried rice. The food is served in waves, so there's always a new dish on the table every 5-10 minutes. The portions are massive! We always have plenty of leftovers to last us the rest of the weekend. Everything is tasty and seasoned well. My personal favs are the fried pumpkin, lobster noodles, and scallops, although all dishes were hits. Will definitely be back for the next group gathering!

    * Visited on a Sunday with a party of 2- the wait was about 20 minutes Surprisingly, this was my first visit to HL Peninsula and I loved it. The portions are great and everything was tasty & delicious. The staff were quick to help us out and get our order in. I appreciate the fact that there was PLENTY of seating, and that the restaurant is quite spacious. OKAY THE FOOD: * Dim sum STAPLES - You can't go to dim sum and NOT GET SIU MAI. I wish I ordered more but we had ordered a good amount of other items to try. The siu mai was the perfect size too, not overly large or small. * Chicken feet with black bean sauce- 20/10. Loved it and loved the fact that it wasn't smothered in the sauce. * Turnip cake - I absolutely love a good fried turnip cake. It was seared great and tasted amazing. If a dim sum restaurant can't make a good turnip cake... you gotta go somewhere else. * XO Rolls - it was very tasty and cooked well! It was seasoned amazing and had the perfect sear to some rolls while maintaining its flavor.

    Cane here with a party of 3 for Father's Day, got quickly seated in a side room unfortunately rather than the main area where we could browse carts. We ordered our usual: shrimp rolls, shrimp dumplings, sui mai, salted fish and chicken fried rice, chicken feet. Unfortunately literally every dish came before the sui mai and shrimp dumplings (seriously? its the most popular dish). I'll start off with the good dishes because honestly there were so little, the two best dishes were the siu mai and chicken feet. The siu mai was hearty, flavors were good, and it was large. The chicken feet was cooked perfectly, texture was consistent throughout and the flavors were subtle and well seasoned. Now the fried rice was 25$, I really wanted this to be good. My honest description of it is ‍, the rice was well cooked, shards were fluffy and seasoned nicely yet that was it. The salted fish was rarely seen, youd only notice every 3 spoonfuls and the chicken was passable. Shrimp rice rolls and shrimp dumplings are my stable go tos, I've been eating these dishes since I was small. These two were a complete disappointment, the batter were both chewy and honestly felt TOO thick. Then it seemed like there was a batter of some sort on both shrimp fillings? This cause the shrimp to have bites that were EXTREMELY chewy, like why are rice rolls chewy??? Final bill was 150$ for mid food that came out late and poorly time. Would NOT come here again.

    Came here with two friends for dim sum on Saturday late morning to try out a new (to us) place. We made a reservation online to make things a little less painful since Saturday dim sum brunch time can get intense with crowds. When we arrived, I checked us in and we were seated right away. The space was gorgeous - spacious, bright, elegant, high ceilings, ginormous screens. They served us tea right away and left a menu on the table for us to fill out and order from. Since I was the lone Asian person at the table, I took the liberty of filling out our order. I placed the completed form at the edge of the table for the wait staff to pick up, after about 10 minutes of no one stopping by, I had to do the arm waving thing to flag someone down. I typically expect minimal to no customer service when going out for dim sum - it's just culturally expected. The food eventually slowly started to come out, a dish and basket at a time, but we had no sauces, so I had to get again flat someone down for some. Once we were settled with sauces, we were good. So. Try good, as a matter of fact. Each dish & basket was fresh, delicious, & left me excited for the next bite. I ordered the standard dim sum dishes, plus some. The steamed bbq pork bun was beautifully crafted & fluffy, moist, & delicious. The group favorite was the salted egg yolk lava bun - painted on top with a stroke of gold, when I broke open the bun, it yielded a delicious golden & sweet yolk that left everyone at the table with surprising delight. The food quality definitely made up for the poor service, but someday, I dream that there will be a dim sum restaurant experience that serves up both.

    Personally, I've never craved dim sum but this meal changed that for me! The restaurant is definitely a more upscale dim sum spot. It's really large, bright, and very clean. The service is also pretty fast. However, because the restaurant is so large and is often packed especially on weekends, you'll probably have to ask your server more than once for something. Overall though, this is my family's new preferred spot for dim sum Dishes: - Pork belly with caviar: was super tender and juicy, basically melt in your mouth texture. However I was hoping the skin would be crispy like typical roast pork so I missed that. -Siu Mai: super plump, juicy, and flavorful! Typically I get bored of siu mai but this one was so good! - Glutinous rice dumpling: one's I've had in the past have been dense but this one was nice and light and the filling too salty - soy sauce noodles: this is my favorite childhood dim sum side but I felt this one was more wet, rather than the dry noodles I'm used to and prefer. I would still get it though since it's one of my favorite dishes. - shrimp noodle roll: overall it was okay. I will say tha the shrimps were HUGEEE which to most people would be great but personally it was a bit too much for me.

    First time to HL Peninsula on Sunday night- my husband and I were surprised by the great service, generous portions. Both our dishes were pretty tasty, not salty. We also got a warm red bean dessert at the end. Nice ambiance- I felt like I was in Asia.

    As of this writing (12/30/24) do they serve dim sum on carts? If so, is it for lunch or dinner or both? Thx

    The food comes out on carts but you order by checking off the items you want from a menu.

    How much are the VIP room? How much would it be if less than 15 people were to book the room?

    The minimum is $400 for 10 people for lunch time. I just booked last month.

    Do you serve dim sum on weekend? My friend came to eat dim sum on Saturday and dim sum was not served.

    I just went yesterday (Saturday) and had dim sum. My guess would be it depends on the time your friend went because dim sum is meant for brunch (breakfast/early lunch) and typically dim sum places stop serving it about 1-2pm

    Do you take reservation for wedding?

    Of course! Very nice place .

    Do you serve dim sum at dinner?

    No they don't. Just during lunch.

    Do they have wifi?

    Sorry but no.

    What time are you open on Sunday?

    10-2:30pm 5-9:30 pm on Sunday's

    Do you accept reservations for dim sum on weekends?

    Sorry , no reservation for dim sum .

Other than that, the rice noodles are thin and silky and hold the sauce nicely. The sauce is also delicious. We also ordered the fish congee which was simple but comforting.

There were only a few dishes I didn't like. Here is what our table ordered: Peking duck: 7/10 While I often enjoy Peking duck, especially with the fluffy bao buns, this Peking duck didn't taste quite as good as others I have had elsewhere. While it was crispy and rich, it didn't have a whole lot of flavor, which was a little disappointing because it got overpowered by the bao buns. Honey walnut prawns: 9/10 I'm a huge fan of honey walnut prawns, they are my favorite at any Chinese banquet lunch. While the flavor was on point for this dish, it lacked crispness despite being the second dish to arrive. Curry chicken: 10/10 Probably my favorite meal here. I don't see curry chicken being served often, but this was amazing. Rich and creamy broth, and the chicken was tender and thinly sliced. Would come back here just for this dish. Sweet and sour pork: 9/10 Another good dish, pork was tender and sauce had a good ratio of sweet to sour. Braised tofu with mushroom: 6/10 This was probably one of my least favorites. The tofu was almost little leathery on the outside, which gave a weird mouthfeel. Other than that, the sauce was alright, and the mushrooms were good. House combination pan fried crispy noodle: 10/10 I absolutely loved these! I really enjoy the noodles with a combination of crispy and drenched in sauce, and this dish gave exactly that. The noodles somehow stayed crispy for the duration of the dinner, which was great. Pan fried noodles with soy sauce: N/A Didn't try it, but it looked good! Salted fish with chicken fried rice: 7/10 While the flavor on the rice was pleasant, with a good mix in of vegetables and chicken, the fish was extremely salty. Each tiny chunk of fish was like a sodium explosion. I thought it was good if you eat around the fish. Pan fried string bean: 9/10 One of the better pan fried string beans I've had, and it even came with some sort of meat mince, which I wasn't expecting but was a cool surprise.

Again, the food is delicious - no complaints there. It is a large venue so maybe that is why the service is lacking, but it is difficult to get the attention of the servers when you need something. However, if you have a server that pays attention (and doesn't look annoyed that they are helping you), then it is a much more pleasant experience. But that rarely happens. So, if you are there for the food, order everything up front, and don't need anything else the rest of the time - then you will be fine. But also be prepared to try get the bill to pay, because that takes time too. Would I go back? Maybe.... maybe I will try take out.

Both claypot rice dishes are excellent: - Chicken with dried Mushrooms and Chinese Sausage with Preserved Meat Combo Clay Pot Rice 北菇滑雞及腊味煲仔饭 - Salted Fish with Pork Clay Pot Rice 咸魚肉片煲仔飯 There's crispy rice at the bottom of the clay pots. The toppings on the rice are good. I can even smell the fragrance from the salted fish. They don't allow this salted fish with pork to be a combo (due to salted fish flavor) and it has to be ordered as a standalone claypot. Soy sauce is served on the side. We ordered two bowls of soup: - Watercress Stewed with dried Duck Gizzard 西洋菜炖陳腎 - Sea Coconut And Pear Stewed Wpork 海底椰雪梨炖瘦肉 Both soup are delicious. They're served piping hot and very flavorful. Unlike most soup are very salty, their soup isn't salty at all and they are tasty. For the Choy Sum veggies, it's also good and the chicken soup is delicious. It came with some chicken meat inside too. Highly recommended and will definitely go back. Note: Bring cash or pay with Venmo. They don't take credit cards. They offer some type of membership (if you wish to join and prepay) for a discount. Ask them for details if you're interested.

The chicken with dried mushroom clay pot rice was well-done and the dish had its signature crispy rice at the bottom. The chicken soup with choy sum was a nice flavorful broth with a good amount of vegetables and chicken. The American ginseng stewed with black chicken also tasted good. The service was fast and responsive, but is good to note that this place no longer takes credit cards for dining in. The ambiance was simple and a bit bare.

    We wanted to have dim sum and decided to give Golden Sun Palace a chance--and we're so glad we did!…read more Their menu is HUGE, with so many options from land, sea, and vegetarian dishes. We ordered the chive and shrimp pancakes, soup dumplings ( HAD A SIMILAR TASTE LIKE DING TAI FUNG ) salt & pepper calamari, beef chow fun noodles, and garlic green beans. We absolutely loved the chili paste/oil they provided. Every dish was packed with great flavor, and the service was fast and easy. Everything came out in a timely manner, which made the whole experience even better. There's also plenty of parking, no reservations are needed, and the prices are very reasonable compared to other dim sum spots. We're definitely looking forward to coming back and trying more items from the menu!

    This restaurant has been around for a long time serving Cantonese cuisine in Milpitas. They have…read moredim sum available during lunch in addition to their regular menu items. A few dishes they do well here are the salt and pepper spare ribs (pork chop), salt and pepper fish fillet, dried scallop with egg fried rice - all their varieties of fried rice are yummy. Servers are courteous but if the restaurant is busy, servers don't come around as often as they should. You may have to flag them down. I recommend asking for everything up front if you don't see what you want at your table. For example, certain condiments or dipping sauces for your dim sum or glasses of water, extra napkins, etc. Request that stuff when the wait staff first show up or when you order. The ambiance is your typical Chinese restaurant. Simple and clean enough considering how long this restaurant has been in business. Nice chandeliers. Busy on the weekends for those coming in for dim sum. Restaurant is a decent size and has tables that are good for larger parties as well. Located in a busy plaza which houses many eateries near Lion Supermarket.

    Came here on a Thursday evening with the family to celebrate another family member's upcoming…read morenuptials, and there were ten of us in the party that evening. This was a typical Cantonese style eatery where you would get together for family gatherings and/or to celebrate events. The decor had the usual elements that you would expect from such a place: crystal chandeliers, fish tanks, gold columns, and giant TV screens. We tried their 10-course banquet-style dinner that they were advertising for $488 (before tax) and I believe this special was only available on weekdays. Portion sizes were extremely generous, and they did not skimp on the ingredients either. The banquet courses included delicacies such as suckling pig, geoduck, whole fish, and lobster to name a few. This meal easily fed ten people, and we still had plenty of leftovers to take home. It was such a great value that towards the end of the evening the restaurant sold out of their banquet special. Overall, the food was pretty good...even though they did overcook the lobster. They have their own huge parking area, so it was super convenient. The dining area was very spacious. The service was casual and efficient. I went to dinner with no expectations, so I was pleasantly surprised. This place impressed my family that they even came back the next morning to try their dim sum.

Everything we ordered was good - there wasn't anything that I didn't like. The variety makes it especially fun when you're with a group since you can order a bunch of different things and share everything around the table. Also, the cart servers are truly superwomen/men! I'm not sure how they move those carts around so quickly lol. Definitely part of the fun of the whole dim sum experience.

It's open and bright and not too noisy, quite comfortable for a dim sum restaurant. Food was still very good. We had Steamed Shrimp Dumplings 蝦餃, Siu Mai (Shrimp and Pork Dumplings) 燒賣, Steamed Bean Curd Rolls 鮮竹卷, Shanghai Dumplings 小籠包, Baked BBQ Pork Buns 焗义燒飽, Shrimp Rice Noodle Rolls 鮮蝦腸粉, and Fried Taro and Meat Dumplings 峰巢竽角. Everything was well made and delicious. Food came out at a good pace. The standouts in my opinion were their Siu Mai and Fried Taro and Meat Dumplings. I am usually not a big Siu Mai fan but theirs were very tasty and juicy and fresh-tasting. They did a great job frying the Taro Dumplings. They were not greasy and the oil used seemed fresh. Service was very attentive, professional, and friendly especially because I've known our waiter Alex for over twenty years! Prices are fair for Bay Area standards. It's a solid dim sum spot.
