    Spacious and beautiful decor

    Took my parents to dim sum - my mom was so excited to go that she was in "rush rush" mode...wanted to go straight there before anywhere else, drop her off at the front entrance, called us several times to make sure we were coming since we were parking the car, flagged us down while on her phone calling us YET another time to hurry up. Was it worth it? Yes! Have not been to Lunasia before (shock), but have been brought the takeout before so great to finally experience it. The interior was beautiful, and loved the orchids at the table. The food was delicious - I loved everything my mom ordered, EXCEPT the taro cake with beef, but taro is not my thing. Mom was happy with her "5 Star" dim sum experience, so that's what I am rating it!

    I went to the Pasadena location years ago and did not think it was worth it so I was a bit reluctant to try out this location. It was very crowded so be sure to make a Rez. We ordered a mix of everything but the standouts were the jumbo shrimp and pork hash and the fried pork chops.

    A decent dim sum spot with a wide selection, Lunasia has several locations throughout SoCal. This particular location is located in a busy shopping center so parking can get tight during lunch/dinner rushes. Decor is modern with nice lighting. My party was seated immediately upon arrival. Of the dishes we ordered my favorite is the egg tofu. Nice and crispy with a seafood glaze drizzled on top. Will be saving this spot for a future visit.

    A good alternative to Din Tai Fung Dim Sum and other Asian dishes. Came on a Wednesday afternoon. We had such a hard time opening the front doors due to the air pressure changes, for a moment, I thought the restaurant is closed till someone pushed the door open from the inside. LOL! We were seated and hot tea was served right away. The fresh and live orchards add a nice touch to the ambiance. We then proceeded to ordering our dishes by scanning the QR code on the table. We ordered the following: Century egg congee, which is our all time favorite, and this time was no exception, we devoured it. The abalone lotus leaf sticky rice, loved it! The pork ribs, my daughter love it. The wanton soup- no flavor, meat was too dense, wanton looked big and clumsy, won't order it again. Xiao long bao, I had to ask for the vinegar and ginger slices; my daughter liked it. Sesame balls with red bean paste, great dessert ! Will visit again.

    The reason I love coming back to Lunasia is that they serve dim sum all day every day, where some places only serve dim sum on the weekends at a certain time block. They have a kiosk where you can put your name down on the waitlist. You can also place a to-go order through this kiosk as well. I haven't had to wait more than 30 minutes every time I came here, which is a plus on my books. As soon as we were seated, we were offered a pitcher of iced water and a pot of hot tea. The dim sums here are bigger, which is why I also like this place. My usual order is Spinach & Shrimp Dumplings, Jumbo Shrimp & Pork Sui-Mai, Crispy Shrimp Roll Shrimp Rice Noodle, Jumbo Shrimp Har Gow, Egg Tart, Twin Sesame Ball (3 pieces), and Egg Yolk Bun (3 pieces). Even though they're not the traditional push-cart dim sum restaurant, this place always satiates my dim sum cravings!

    A friend and I came here for lunch. It was my first time here. There was a wait list, but it was quick. We signed in and was called almost immediately. It was packed and very busy and I see why. The service was so quick AND the food was amazing! Now that's what I call "fast food"! I will definitely come back! My reason for the 4 star rating is because the food were dropped off and the servers walked away fast AND it was hard to wave them down when we needed attention. But other than that, it was amazing! I definitely recommend this place!

    When you need a quick Peking duck fix and don't have time to call 24 hots ahead, Lunasia is solid choice!

    Came here on a busy weekend so it's a good thing I had reservations. I ordered on their QR code, which redirects to their website. I like it because you don't feel rushed to order and there are pictures of the food. Rice Noodle Roll w/ Shrimp ($8.70) - Tasty with large shrimp and a side of vinegar soy sauce Salted Fish & Chicken Fried Rice ($22) - My favorite because it was slightly buttery with the saltiness from fish and flavorful chicken. Veggie Crispy Bean Curd ($6.50) - My second favorite because the crispy of the bean curd complemented the veggie filling. Jumbo Shrimp Har-Gow ($11) - 6 pieces of har-gow with a jumbo shrimp inside. I thought this was a bit doughy. Scallop Dumpling w/ Squid Ink ($8.40) - This was good, but there was only bits of scallop at the top while the rest was shrimp filling. Pan-Fried Turnip Cake ($6.50) - I was disappointed with this since I was expecting a crispy texture, but it was soft. The service was good and I liked that they left a bottle of water on the table for me to fill so I don't have to wait for the staff to come by. Parking is very scarce on a weekend in Cerritos so be prepared to look around for awhile.

    Second time coming here with family, and it continues to impress. This place is always popular for dim sum, and for good reason. The restaurant is clean with a modern, contemporary vibe. We waited about 30 minutes, but it was totally worth it. The process is very efficient -- check in on the iPad and order through the QR code system. Unlike traditional cart dim sum, everything here is steamed and cooked to order, so every dish comes out hot, crispy, fresh, and perfectly prepared. I'm pretty picky when it comes to dim sum, but this is definitely one of the spots I'd recommend. Great place to come with family and friends. We're big eaters, but even with tip included, it came out to around $30 per person. We left full and happy campers with very satisfied stomachs.

    Beautiful to go bag.

    Ordered some dumplings to go. Was super pleased with the quality, taste and price. I got a good deal with BOGO so that gave me a chance to try both pork pan fried and pork soup dumplings.

    I came here for lunch with my in-laws and let me tell you, Lunasia did NOT disappoint. We were seated right away, which is always a great start. Usually at dim sum restaurants, there are ladies pushing carts around and you have to flag them down and hop the have what you're looking for. Here, you just scan a QR code assigned to your table and order exactly what you want, with everything made to order. Makes it way easier and way less stressful. We ordered a bunch of food including har gow, siu mai, chili wontons, har cheung, and stir fried water spinach. Each item that came out had HUGE portions and was stuffed with pork and shrimp. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. I definitely felt like we got our moneys worth. I will absolutely be coming back to this location and already can't wait until next time!

    Food: 6/10 Service: 6/10 Ambiance: 8/10 I'd heard a lot of great things about Lunasia Dim Sum House, so I was excited to finally check it out. The restaurant itself is very nice inside, clean, upscale, and we were seated quickly, which made for a strong first impression. Since it was our first time, we were a bit unsure about how the ordering process worked and didn't receive much guidance upfront, but we were able to figure it out. We ordered a variety of dishes, and everything came out hot and well presented. The staff was attentive throughout the meal, and service was solid. Overall, it was a decent experience, just not quite what I expected based on the hype, but still a place worth trying if you're curious about dim sum.

    We visited Lunasia in Cerritos for a gathering dinner, and with a party of nine, we were seated right on time for our reservation. We ordered a variety of dishes to share: * Whole Fried Chicken - Great Crispy skin with juicy meat. A crowd favorite and perfect for sharing. * Stir-fried Jellyfish Head with X.O. - Good Nice crunch with savory XO flavor. Light, refreshing, and a solid starter. * Assorted Barbecued Combination - Good A reliable trio of BBQ meats--tender, flavorful, and nicely glazed. * Salted Egg Yolk Shrimp - OK The salted egg coating was rich but didn't bring out the depth of flavor we expected. Shrimp were cooked fine but overall fell short. * Sweet and Sour Fish (Whole) - OK Not very crispy, though the inside was tender. Sauce was balanced--not too sweet or tangy--but overall average. * SP Lobster with Ginger & Onion - OK Fresh and fragrant with classic ginger-scallion aroma. Lobster meat was tender, but overall flavor was mild. * Stir-Fried Water Spinach - OK Fresh and garlicky, but a bit greasy. * Pan-Fried String Beans - OK Texture was fine, but the seasoning and added ingredients lacked flavor. * Fried Rice with Dried Scallop - Great Fragrant, well-fried, and had noticeable scallop flavor. Good portion size and great for sharing. * Anxi Tie Guan Yin (Roasted) Aromatic, smooth, and a nice tea pairing for the meal. * Sweet Taro with Oatmeal - Great Warm, creamy, lightly sweet, and surprisingly tasty. * Sesame Ball - OK Crispy outside with a soft, chewy interior. Classic dim sum, but nothing standout. * Panda Custard Bun - OK Cute presentation with a decent custard filling. * Pineapple Bun Soft and lightly sweet. Service was attentive throughout the evening, and dishes arrived quickly. However, most items landed in the 2-3 star range, with only a few dishes reaching 4-5 stars. Overall, I would rate this visit 3 stars. Lunasia has been great in the past, but this experience felt like it had lost some of its usual touch.

    The prices are relative to where and what you order in SGV, as the Cerritos Lunasia's items are on the high side. The convenience of the location, if I have a craving for dimsum, the quality and size of 1 order of JUMBO shrimp Har Gaw (has 4… Read more

When I walked in and saw the outside I was wondering why my friends choose this place, it looked from the outside like a small shop, but when I walked in it was way bigger and authentic. Jokes on me. Ordered a bunch of dim sum dishes, everything came out quickly. They even have dessert samples in the front. In San Francisco they would never have dessert samples at a dim sum place so that was a plus for our group. Tea is around $5 a pot. Potstickers were a hit and so was the beef chow fun. Those were 5/5 The beef jook is a skip, kind of tasted runny like powder and no real flavor with weird small bits of beef that looked like bacon bits. 2/10 Other than that the dim sum was solid amd came out hot and fresh. Same with the Chinese broccoli. Skip the lemon iced tea. Tasted like it was from a packet and it was horrible. 0/10 Would definitely come back for their dim sum though.

Let's review the places we frequent and show them as much love as possible. My family had been coming since the late 80's. I was an infant in the 90's when they started bringing me here. It almost...almost felt like a third space for my family. We probably came at least 200+ times, if not substantially more.

We went so much that we definitely had off days but never had a legit bad experience there. Never got sick off their food, and never got sick of seeing Bernard. I hope they open something else for us or relocate, and if not I manifest success in their future.

    What I Ordered: Juicy Pork Dumplings ($11.99)…read morePan Fried Chinese Chives Pork Shrimp dumplings ($12.99) Wonton in Spicy Sauce ($11.50) Chicken Fried Rice ($12.99) Dry fried string bean ($13.50) Orange Chicken ($14.99) Kung Pao Shrimp ($18.99) Dan dan noodle ($13.99) Beef roll pancake ($12.99) Spring rolls ($3.50) Jasmine Milk Tea with Boba Food: The Pan Fried Chinese Chives Pork Shrimp Dumplings. I absolutely loved the crispy bottom layer because it added such a satisfying crunch to every bite. The inside stayed really juicy and flavorful with a good balance of pork, shrimp, and chives. The Juicy Pork Dumplings had soup inside, which was rich and savory. I've had soup dumplings before where the wrapper breaks apart too easily, but these held together nicely while still staying soft and delicate. The Wonton in Spicy Sauce was my personal favorite from the entire meal. The spicy sauce flavor was savory with a little sweetness. I'm typically not good with spice, so this is at a spice level that should be very manageable for everyone. I absolutely loved the spicy sauce, so I started putting it on everything. Definitely put the sauce on the chicken fried rice! The Chicken Fried Rice was a great dish to pair with everything else that we ordered. With several orders of entrees, a solid rice dish is a must order for any Chinese meal. The rice had a nice savory flavor that I enjoyed, and there was a generous amount of chicken mixed throughout the dish. I even asked the waitress if they do anything special with the fried rice because it tasted better than many other restaurants. It felt comforting and balanced compared to some of the heavier dishes. The Dry Fried String Beans were cooked perfectly with a slight crispness while still being tender. The garlic and seasoning gave them so much flavor that it honestly didn't even feel like I was eating vegetables. I do have to note that these were very much on the salty side, so if you don't like foods that are too salty, I would choose a different dish. The Orange Chicken was really crispy and juicy, which I appreciated because soggy orange chicken is always disappointing to me. The sauce had a nice citrus flavor while still keeping that classic sweet savory taste. The Spring Rolls were simple with vegetable filling on the inside with a crispy outside. I would try a different appetizer next time. The Kung Pao Shrimp was packed with flavor and had a really satisfying combination of textures. The shrimp were tender, and the peanuts added a great crunch to the dish. I thought the sauce had a really nice balance of spice and savoriness without becoming overwhelming. Another dish I really enjoyed was the Beef Roll Pancake. The pancake itself was nice and chewy throughout each bite. The sliced beef with green onions and sauce all wrapped together made every bite really flavorful and satisfying. For drinks, I ordered the Jasmine Milk Tea with Boba. I really liked that the jasmine tea flavor was noticeable instead of being overly sweet like some milk teas can be. The boba had a soft chewy texture, and the drink itself paired perfectly with the spicy and savory dishes from the meal. Staff: All of the staff members were quick and friendly Ambiance: Indoor seating only. A good amount of parking in the parking lot that is shared with other shops in the plaza.
