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!
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!
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!
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.
* 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.
We came here on a Friday night to celebrate a graduation. The restaurant interior and decor is very modern and pretty. Plenty of private rooms to dine in, 2 humongous TV, and plenty to space esp for a wedding. Well, we reserved for a party of 24. Placed our order, but the food took a while to come out. It did not seem so busy for a Friday night around 7:30pm. There were plenty of tables available. When our first dish came out, it was the fish maw soup. Which is usually eaten with red vinegar and white pepper, but there was none on our table. We asked for white pepper 3x and no one brought it to us. The soup ended up being ao bland, the only bland dish for the night, because everything else we ordered are SALTY!!!!! SALTY! SALTY! SALTY! We ordered 2 of everything bc we had to 2 tables. Thefried shrimp, SALTY! Honey walnut shrimp, SALTY! Expensive lobster with noodle, SALTY! A few tofu dishes, SALTY! Clams were okay. I forgot what else we ordered, but it was SALTY! And I wasn't the only one who felt this way. Service was HORRIBLE!! I had to ask for water for 3 different people, I order in English and Chinese, and still nothing. The white pepper we asked showed up around the end of meal. I'm not sure if all the staff were new, but it was horrible service. Especially for a $1,000 meal, we want better service, just asking for the bare minimum. Will not be attending again.
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.
Came here with some friends for a get together before the holiday. It's your typical Chinese restaurant service where it's not great but wasn't horrible either. It's a Saturday night so they had two weddings going on. They kept flashing the lights and volume is music was all over the place. The food was fairly decent. Nothing really out shined. I think this restaurant is known for the seafood which we did t really get much of. Might consider trying again... but maybe for their dim sum
We went HL Peninsula for the first time to celebrate my mom's birthday. We reserved 3 tables and ore-ordered the food. The restaurant is open and nicely decorated. The prices are a higher than other dim sum restaurants. The food was brought out inconsistently. Some tables had to wait for certain dishes while other tables were served already. Overall, our experience was average.
Beautiful banquet hall frequently a consideration for hosting weddings and dinner parties yet also proficient in serving the staple dim sum during weekend brunch, HL Peninsula bolsters its presence in the Bay Area with this South East Bay location. Possibly overshadowed by its competition on the other side of the freeway, HL Peninsula is oftentimes forgotten for me but this time around, we attended a beautiful wedding hosted at the restaurant and it was amazing. Parking is abundant with its own dedicated lot and location is convenient for out of towners and locals as it's just blocks from the highway. The space is huge with high ceilings, great lighting, and comfortable seating arrangements. The food was certainly a highlight with presentable arrangements on display with solid ingredients making up the robust yet delicate dishes. Seafood is a strength here but so is there abundance of other proteins. Their roasted pig was just right in terms of fat to meat proportions and the crisp on the skin was decent. Peking duck was good but I'd prefer thinner pieces of meat. Sea bass was decadent per usual and cooked perfectly. Abalone with sea cucumber, a classic for many with exquisite tastes, was executed well here (clean, smooth texture in the sea cucumber and tender abalone). A new and fresh dish for me was their sea urchin fried rice. It was unique, however, cooked sea urchin just didn't have the same spark in flavor compared to its raw variety. The flavor was still great, but I had expected more of a kick from a dish involving uni. Pricing is as you'd expect - a little on the higher end, but for the quality you're getting, it's quite fair in my opinion. We have come here for dim sum once before and it was pretty comparable to similar places and the portions were, to me, industry standard. It's just incredibly busy and noisy. The staff were efficient and friendly - a lot of the folks here are veterans in the business and know how to ensure their customers enjoy a meal out. Overall, HL Peninsula is a strong option for banquet dinners as well as just a night out with solid, authentic Chinese cuisine that may include a healthy, balanced serving of proteins, vegetables, noodles and rice. Dim sum cravings may also be quelled here during their brunch hours but be early during those peak weekend times or else be prepared to wait! They have branches throughout the Bay Area so if this one's close by, check it out! I haven't been to any of the other locations yet but from what I've heard, the food can vary. We'll just have to see for ourselves next time!
recently visited this restaurant for the first time with a party of 13, and the experience was nothing short of frustrating. What should have been an enjoyable group dinner was ruined by some of the pushiest and most unprofessional service I've encountered. From the start, the waiter was relentlessly aggressive, trying to force us into the most expensive set dinner menu. Despite us telling him multiple times that we wanted to see the regular menu, he pressured us 6 or 7 times until we finally had to tell him how annoying it was. The most ridiculous part? He kept "joking" that the food we ordered wouldn't be enough. We ended up ordering 13 different dishes, and even then, we couldn't even finish everything on the table! It was clear the staff was more interested in padding the bill than ensuring we had a good meal. It is incredibly uncomfortable to be mocked for your order when you've already provided the restaurant with plenty of business. I felt disrespected as a customer and hounded for a higher spend. This restaurant is officially on my black list--I won't be returning to a place that prioritizes a "hard sell" over basic hospitality.
Craved some dim sum and made my way to HL Peninsula Restaurant on a Sunday around 11:30am. This is located in a huge plaza area so there is plenty of parking. It was definitely starting to pick up but we were able to get seated right away. They handed us the menu and asked what tea we'd like - we got jasmine! Our eyes were much bigger than our stomachs and went to town. We ordered: Cucumber Roll: Added a light and fresh touch to the start of our meal. Almond Shrimp Ball: This was good and piping hot. They cut in half for us. The creamy mayo sauce went really well with it! Shrimp Rice Roll: One of my favorites, the shrimp pieces were huge. I just wished for a bit more sauce. Shiumai: This one did the job and was pretty big. Shanghai Xiao Long Baos: So good! I wish we got two of these but we ordered so much food. Crab Meat & Shrimp Dumplings: Hmm probably my least favorite, not sure if the food coma started settling in by this point but it felt like it was too much filling and I just wasn't a huge fan of the taste. BBQ Pork Buns: Ended up taking this home. Microwaved it and it was still delicious. Chinese Tender Greens with Garlic: Perfect vegetable to add to our spread of food and went well with the Spare Ribs. Pork Spare Ribs in Black Bean Sauce: This was tender and juicy, so much flavor. Overall a good experience! Huge dining hall so lots and lots of tables - great for large parties. Staff was fast and every time they dropped off an item, they marked it off the receipt paper at our table. read more

If I could give this negative stars, I would. We came here on opening weekend, the third day after their initial opening day. As to be expected, with all the hype across social media, H&L Peninsula Restaurant was packed during the dinner hours. But what we did not expect, was the level and amount of chaos from our initial arrival to our departure. As soon as we got our number to put our name down for a table of six, we inquired about the approximate wait time. This and each time we checked in, we were told they did not know. They couldn't give us if it was a 30-minute wait, more or less. After about 15 minutes however, I noticed that numbers surrounding ournumber were being called. I continued to check in on the approximate wait time, and I continue to get the same response of not knowing. Chaos. Finally, after calling them out for the lack of order in their table assignments for waiting customers, they somehow were able to just bring us back to a table. And that was just the start of our horrific experience. Service was non-existent. After 20 minutes of no server or wait staff, we had to flag a random staff member just to even bring us water to drink. We indicated we still have yet to have any wait staff to attend to us and take our order. This staff member said he could not take our order, but he did flag one of his coworkers. We watched an anticipation as supposedly our waitress was taking orders all around us. Finally after maybe another 10 minutes, we were able to place our order. Yet again just like our wait experience, we watched customers get seated, orders get placed, and their food arriving before our long-placed order. Our first dish, arrived before the soup and about 25 minutes after we placed our order. The dish and the soup were cold. Another 20 minutes passed and still no new dishes arrived. We flagged our waitress and other wait staff that appeared to be at a supervisory and managerial level. Finally, it wasn't until I was very explicit about how unhappy I was for the lack of service and I was going to refuse paying the mandatory 18% service charge, did the manager take real action headed to the kitchen to find out what was going on. Ten minutes later the rest of our meal of at least five more dishes came in rapid fashion. The manager tried to appease us by offering us complementary dim sum and some random vegetable dish. A little bit too late and too little to recover from this horrific. There is absolutely no reason why it took us well over an hour to get our complete meal. By that time, our hunger had passed and nothing seemed appealing. Between the incredulously chaotic wait for a table, wait for any service, wait for our food, and urgency to take action for the absence of service, the food also was not great. I characterize it as atypical Cantonese style food, which you would not find at traditional Hong Kong style restaurants. Despite all the hype about this being the largest Chinese restaurant seating over 800 people and the vast dining spaces adorned with large screens around the restaurant, I won't ever be returning to this restaurant. read more

Came here with my family on a Sunday evening. Dinner was excellent and us four shared 5 dishes. My in-law's love going here as service is great and all the dishes are cooked very well. I can imagine watching the game is great here too as they have two massive screens. read more

Solid Cantonese restaurant spot. They got some diff things that others don't but I'm starting to think every one of these Cantonese seafood restaurants(khoi palace, etc) have some diff dishes that their competitors don't have so there are def some solid differentiators amongst them. Food was good. Dim sum was also good. Compared to others they are a bit pricier. The decor was more elegant tho and newer. Def recommend a visit at least once read more

Well, this place was really hard for me to review because the food is soooo good but the service is pretty bad. Some people might say no pain, no gain. But I'm going to be honest.. its probably one of the best dim sum that I've had so far in bay area. If you're a hardcore dim sum person, you'll probably end up going to Mayflower in Milpitas but then realize the line is soo long. So you look for alternative places and then you end up at HL Peninsula. Tripe 5/5 : Came in hot, flavorfull not salty but perfect balance of savory n bouncy tripe Fish over vermicelli 5/5: not oily , came in hot well balanced savory flavor with soft white fish. Saw a table across ordering this and eating it with gusto. Decided to try it and was just tops! Chicken feet: 4/5 hot plump n juicy nothing to complain about here . Full of collagen and good for your skin! Egg custard buns 5/5: everyone had this on their table . Definitely a must order. Salted Egg yolk inside is so goey contrast w crusty sweet outer. Break it apart and look at the egg .. definitely an IG moment Spinach and shrimp dumplings 4/5: Light dumpling with shrimp and spinach. Only 3 in the order it was perfect size for two people BBQ pork rice wrap 3/4: pork seemed a bit over cooked and dry for some pieces but the overall flavor was there . Black bean oyster: 3/5 super salty black bean sauce . And I like salty but this was too salty even for me . Just eat w more bland side dishes and you'll be ok ! Service 2/5 : How to get service. You need to be very diligent and aggressive to flag down people and don't give up hope ! Busy times - the servers will not look you in the eye. However , eventually someone will acknowledge you and come to your table . Target the people wearing black w headsets . They help fill in service gaps . If you want to pay the bill and you're starting to lose patience, just stand up and go all the way to the cash register. At the side of the building next to the kitchen. Good luck ! read more

My husband and I went here for dim sum yesterday morning and the only thing more memorable than the food was how freezing the restaurant was. It was uncomfortably cold the entire time. The dishes turned cold almost immediately, which completely ruined the eating experience. When we got home, my husband felt sick from how cold it was inside. It was so bad that I saw one of the servers wearing a wool coat over his uniform. If your own staff needs winter clothing indoors, that is a serious problem. The food and service were decent, but the owner's apparent attempt to save money on air conditioning is ridiculous and unacceptable. Guests and employees should not have to suffer through a meal. read more

Had such a great experience at HL Peninsula! The restaurant itself is beautiful, spacious, and very clean--it really sets the tone for a nice dining experience. Our server Jennifer was wonderful--friendly, attentive, and made sure we were always taken care of without ever feeling rushed. Service was quick and smooth, and all of our dishes came out hot and fresh. The food was excellent--flavorful, perfectly cooked, and you can tell the quality is top-notch. Between the great service, amazing food, and such a welcoming atmosphere, HL Peninsula is easily one of my favorite spots. I'll definitely be coming back again soon! read more

Most of the dim sum was delicious and what I'd consider to be near perfect bites, but the service quality was so lackluster it threw me for a loop and brought down the atmosphere for the afternoon. There was mostly a lot of waiting between every step -- from getting our menus, to submitting our order, and then for each individual dish to come out. We spent more time between dishes twiddling our thumbs than actively eating. But to the main issue: when I asked our first server for soy sauce and chili sauce, he told me to wait until after he finished serving the plates he was holding in his hands -- totally reasonable! Except he never came back. When our second dish arrived with a different server, I asked again for soy sauce and chili sauce, to which the server affirmed and then also left and was never seen again. Over halfway into our meal, the first server walked by our table and I asked for the *third* time for chili sauce (at this point the table next to us left and I just grabbed the soy sauce that was on their table). He gave me a sigh, pointed at his cart in exasperation to make clear I was inconveniencing him, then went to grab a dish of chili sauce. It really shouldn't have taken 45 minutes and 3 requests to get this really simple item, and the lack of follow through and borderline rudeness made this lunch memorable in a negative way. I'd consider returning for the food, but not with any company I wanted to impress. read more
Good service and good food. Love their menu, so many choices even for lunch. I ordered a sea cucumber with tofu and it's $42. The lobster noodle is $52. The location is always nicely decorated for the season and the decoration inside is always wedding ready. Good for group lunch. read more

Wow! What a great dim sum hall! I thought overall it was very good and this location is huge and clean. Highly recommend the Chrysanthemum tea- it's delicious. The Sui Mai, Shrimp dumplings, and no mai gai were all good, but on par with other dim sum Ive had in Milpitas. My favorites were the turnip cake, molten egg buns (SO good), and the egg tarts are some of the best Ive had. The baked pork buns we're also **chefs kiss** Overall great authentic Cantonese dim sum! It would be 5-stars only some of the fish in the tanks were clearly dead...and it grossed me out a bit. read more

Came in on a Sunday before 11. We were a party of 5 and seated immediately. On the table was the menu where you check off your items. We ordered a lot of food. They did miss 2 of the items we checked off but we had so much leftovers. The restaurant is large and spacious with high ceilings. The space is modern with 2 large projection screens on both ends. There were some private rooms as well. Everything was delicious and service was friendly. read more
The restaurant itself is huge. Decor and aesthetic is really nice. Ordered: - Black Bun with Salted Egg Yolk - Jellyfish/Seaweed Salad - Siu Mai - Black Bean Chicken Feet - Har Gao - Shrimp Rice Noodle Roll The food was not that great. It may have been that there were so many people on a Sunday for dim sum, but the food wasn't fresh? Usually I expect it to be steaming hot, but the har gao and shrimp rice noodle roll were just warm. Rice noodle rolls and har gao skin were too thick, and the har gao was also so sticky that I couldn't get it off my chopsticks. Jellyfish salad didn't really have any flavor other than spicy, and the black bun wasn't as soft as I usually get it at other places. The black bun skin also stuck to the paper attached to it for some reason. Only good options were the siu mai and the chicken feet, but they were good at best. Not sure if I would recommend, but might be a one-off experience. read more
I usually don't write a second review but my experience two weeks ago deserved a shout out to the staff at HL. We celebrated our parents 50th wedding anniversary 2 weeks ago with a private room and our main host/ server was Cam. Cam was the man! He was beyond patient with my family and the kids running around, attentive, and super friendly from the moment he introduced himself to us. He made this event felt super special with his service and we can't thank him enough! read more
Really solid dimsum with tons of options. The ambience is really nice inside and has great decor/lighting. Tables are really close together though. Had things ranging from siu mai to crispy pork dumplings to shrimp rice paper. Everything tasted really good but I did feel it was a bit overpriced for what it was. They had a daily special of fried seafood sticks which kinda just tasted like mayo + seafood chopped up and fried. Wasn't the best but at least it was worth a try. If you go on a busy day, be prepared for slow service and service that rushes you a bit. It's understandable if they're packed but I got reminded 5 times for "last calls" read more
Concubine steam chicken, combination fried rice, and the best was Australian wagyu with mushrooms! Fried crab egg yolk was just okay or efu noodle. Would like to try the crispy fish skin and giant clam with noodles next time read more

Really enjoyed the food here on Father's Day. Mind you, it was quite busy so we ordered online for pick up! It still took 50 minutes though for the order to be finished. Ordered at 10:15am and when arriving it still wasn't ready. They were really busy though so it is understandable. Two dishes I really enjoyed were the Sauteed Kurobuta Pork & String Bean with Bamboo Shoot and Sauteed Beef Cube with Taro. Really unique flavors and tasted wonderful! Would order again :) read more

OMG, love this place! Been looking for a good authentic unique dim sum restaurant and finally found it with the help after a family gathering! The check in is quick although sometimes there's a wait but that's normal for good food. Service is top notch and love the big screen displays during the holidays and ambiance of the entire place! The best part, every dish we got so far is delicious! We will be back way more often and I'll update with more food pics as well! Totally worth the price! read more

This is high end dim sum, very nice resturant with high ceilings and gold trim around. Not many rolling carts of foods, mainly just bringing it out kinda loses the dim sum feel to it Food was okay, we wanted a true dim sum place to eat at. Only thing that stood out is the bunny mango pudding. read more

Ordering first takes a while when you're just seated, then it doesn't stop coming. Sticky rice with Chinese sausage - lots of filling Taro cake - savory and salty, easily filling Gai lan w oyster sauce - can't go wrong with veggies Roasted Peking duck - 2nd favorite, generous meat portions lobster - star of the show Ha gow - my favorite dim sum and shrimp is nicely cooked Shrimp rice rolls Purple cabbage tempura rolls - unique color Chow mien - great noodle option Congee - super hot and warms the body right up Sui mai - huge Pork spare ribs - tender, soft, right amount of saltiness Egg yolk bun - warm runny salted egg yolk Kalbi - not too sweet which is a plus The only thing is if you're sitting near the screen, the brightness may be an eye sore. It would be nice if the screen played other videos other than ads of the restaurant as a wedding venue. For instance, I wouldn't mind being seated next to the screen if there was serene landscapes videos or slideshows. read more
Ordered the $728 banquet meal. The portion size was pretty good, considering it should serve 10 adults. In terms of taste, some were better than the others. The fried spareribs and prawns were light and crispy, but a tad mild in flavors. The lobster yee mee was also good, packed with green onion flavors. On the other hand, the abalone was not so great. Pricing wise, it's on the higher side relative to taste. read more

Came here for dim sum with a few friends and the first thing I noticed was how much newer the interior looked compared to other old school dim sum spots. They definitely renovated recently and it does add to the ambience! Service was pretty good as well - they don't do cart style here but our food came out hot and fast once we placed our order. Portions were generous as well, sure pricing isn't as low as some of the OG spots but it's still reasonable for the Bay. Adding this HL Peninsula to the dim sum rotation! read more
We were excited to try a different dim sum place and it started off strong with the golden fried rice and string beans, mushroom, jicama dish. An hour and fifteen minutes later we were still waiting for a third of our dishes. We kept having to ask for the dishes and several of them came out cold. Cold XLBs are not tasty. It took 30 minutes for a box and to pay. My MIL was also upset by the terrible service/experience and the 16% service charge. Would not go back read more
HL Peninsula is a very nice Chinese Restaurant to hold large celebration banquets. The ambiance has Classical Chinese decor. There are multiple salt water tanks where you can see a variety of live fish, lobster, crabs , and huge prawns for you to select from. The BBQ meats such as char su, duck, Peking Duck, etc are very tasty. Other Chinese dishes prepared are prepared to perfection and you'll find these selected foods to be very tasty and delicious. I would recommend giving HL Peninsula a try for a fantastic Chinese dinner, or reserve a room or hall for a delicious Chinese banquet. read more

Total will give out 2.8 out of 5 Food: 3.5 / 5 Service: 2.5 / 5 - it were ok until 1:40pm on Saturday dim sum will be closed any more orders? 2 minutes later brought the check said cashier will be closing in 5 minutes but we only ate 15% of our food and guy-supervisor just standing next to our table waiting for us to pay- very un respectful. Ambiance: 3.8 / 5 Price: 2 / 5 - little over price Parking: 5 / 5 Location: 4.8 / 5 * Automatically charged 16% tips for 5 and under 18% for 5+ - I thought CA changed the law already? State departments please check on this business read more
Dim sum/yum cha at HL Peninsula is great! We came on a weekend shortly after they opened and there was no wait. There were already many tables that were seated by the time we sat down. They have a large variety of options that you can select off of their menu. On top of the dim sum items, we also ordered a beef chow fun dish since we were craving it. That was pretty good and had a lot of "wok hay" flavor. None of the food was overly salty which was a huge plus. The service was pretty good as well. The only thing that threw us off was the automatic 16% gratuity, which is certainly not a standard across all restaurants. I would definitely come back again when I'm around the area. read more

A huge dim sum place with tons of dishes, fresh seafood, live lobster banquet rooms too! Good service. Impressive dining room and facilities. You can pull from carts but it's best to just order from their menu. Fairly pricy but maybe not for Bay Area. Flavors ok not spectacular. Service is ok huge busy place. Price a bit high. read more

We came there to celebrate my birthday. Kudos and special recognition to Mr. Guo, one of the waiter. He really go above and beyond to make the birthday experience unforgettable. From all my experience celebrating birthday in restaurant, this is the first time where the waiter is very considerate and super helpful during cake time. He brought the birthday cake to our table and make sure our table is clean before taking the picture. He even directed us where to sit/pose before taking picture, took lots of picture for us. And, he has special trick on how to cut the cake Another plus point, very clean, bright, and bog restaurant. Ambiance is super nice. We surely will come back for another birthday celebration and already plan to try their dimsum! read more

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 accept reservations for dim sum on weekends?
Sorry , no reservation for dim sum .
