*** Credit cards accepted - MasterCard or Visa only ***…read more Hong Kong Dim Sum House is a popular dim sum cafe in San Gabriel and they also have another location in South El Monte. Three key points: (1) there are no push carts here, (2) the space is quite small with only 6 tables - ideally suited for groups of 4 or fewer people, and (3) there is no restroom available. [Parking]: Hong Kong Dim Sum House shares the same plaza parking lot as other popular spots like Bopomofo Cafe and Golden Deli, so come before 10 AM if you want an excellent chance of finding an available parking spot. [Menu]: Yelp's top highlighted items are #1 Shrimp Har Gow, #6 Chicken Feet, #5 Spare Rib in Garlic Sauce, #3 Shrimp Shiu Mai, #31 Fried Sugar Cane Shrimp, #17 Shrimp Rice Roll, and #9 Steamed BBQ Pork Bun / #25 Baked BBQ Pork Bun. Tea = $1 per person. *** #1 Shrimp Har Gow ($7.70) & #3 Shrimp Shiu Mai ($7.70): All pieces were juicy and flavorful. #5 Spare Rib in Garlic Sauce ($7.70): A solid option with squash pieces. #6 Chicken Feet ($7.70): Amazing texture - the skin fell apart very easily. *** Overall the food was a bit expensive, but the quality was excellent and comparable to Lunasia. This is a great spot for people who don't care too much about certain amenities or somewhat hefty prices and simply want high-quality food (or consider the takeout option instead).

Bistro 1968 - One of the best value dim sum spots I've been to lately in the SGV. So here, they…read morehave many dim sum dishes around $4.88, which is such a steal for the portion and quality. For dishes like the beef chow fun and steamed fish for about $14.88, making it super affordable for a large group meal. The food came out fresh and hot, and the menu had a lot of variety to choose from. The restaurant gets busy, on weekends but service moved pretty efficiently overall. A perk for this place is that they do have a parking garage, which made parking way less stressful compared to other busy dim sum spots in the area.

When Bistro 1968 first opened, I bookmarked the restaurant wanting to stop by for dim sum but never…read morehad the chance to do so. I heard about their AYCE dim sum promo but that actually made me not want to come because I knew the wait would've been very long, and I hate waiting for a table just to eat. Fast forward to tonight and a suggestion was made to try the $14.88 dinner special at Bistro 1968. Here's my honest review of my experience. * Parking - Self parking behind the restaurant. I came on a Monday night dinner time , and there was only 2 cars in the entire lot. The parking lot was very creepy as it was't too well lit. I could see the kitchen from the structure because the backdoor was left opened. There were boxes and junk littered around the area. * You have to walk through a long hallway from the parking lot to get to the restaurant. There are signs to guide you, but if you're going there for the first time, it could be a bit confusing. * We got there at 7pm and there was only 1 table of customers. I honestly don't know how to describe the decor because it depends on which part of restaurant you're looking at. * Staff were all VERY nice. They gave us free dessert (Egg Tarts and Pineapple Buns) so that was awesome. * Food - I ordered the Fried Fish but it wasn't fully cooked. Some parts were still raw so it had a fishy taste. We ate a few pieces but left most of it untouched. Everything else was pretty much okay except for its temperature - it was lukewarm. Nothing was piping hot except for the steamed Pork Spareribs from their all day dim sum menu. * There were some small gnats that kept flying around and when one actually landed in my food, I just stopped eating altogether. * No alcohol available but definitely not a huge deal. Their staff are so nice that I actually feel bad about not writing a positive review about the establishment, but I really just don't see how I am able to rate it any higher than 2 stars. I don't think I will be coming back.

Different from the restaurants serving dim sum on carts some folks may be used to. This is more of place someone would go to if you wanted quick dim sum at a great price. Highlights: -#5 har gow (aka crystal shrimp dumplings) was so plump and jam packed with shrimp! The skin was so chewy too. Delicious! -#25 black sesame with red bean paste was so fresh! It was crisp and chewy without feeling too heavy from the oil, if you stop at one that is haha -#6 siu mai was also so jam packed with meat and juicy! Still worth mentioning that the turnip cake was delicious in flavor but just not a highlight because it was on the mushier side. I'd still get it again though! Also, my partner really enjoyed the congee. I didn't try it though. Areas that can be improved: -the lotus sticky rice was a little lacking in flavor and meat. -the Cheung fun although had generous amounts of shrimp, it lacked bounce in the rice noodle. Maybe because it was cold by the time we ate it. -to reduce paper consumption, I recommend using laminate dry erase for the menus so they can be reused. Just an idea/suggestion! We were charged weekend prices because it is a holiday (President's Day). The accept credit card. You can also order via phone but we figured it wouldn't be too busy on a rainy day.

We ordered French style beef, house special fried chow mein, honey walnut shrimp and steamed rice. First of all, the serving portions were very generous. All came in very large plates. The beef was saucy, tender and flavorful. In other restaurants, they add mushrooms to fill the plate. Here, the plate is full of just large chunks of beef. The shrimp in the honey walnut dish were large prawns. They were moist, succulent and tender. It had a rich flavor because of the mayo. The chow mein was full of chicken, shrimp, squid and octopus. It was perfectly crispy and saucy at the same time. We ate to our heart's content and ended up taking home plenty of leftovers enough for another meal. Our total bill was a little over $108 with tip. We will definitely be back. Parking is valet only and cost is $5.

Everything was good and nothing missed the mark, except the lobster had a ridiculous amount of green onions and they skimped on the noodles. I felt that the noodles were also overcooked and lack flavor of their own. For a Chinese restaurant, there was pretty quick service. Waiters frequent the table to collect dirty dishes and refill waters

I had no idea that they have been Michelin guide recognition. But, they are fast to turn the tables and get the cue moving quickly.

The turnip cake here is also steamed only and not pan fired before serving which is different by my experiences. They do have both the steamed and baked Cha Shao Bao for those that like both kinds.

Couldn't find the spot at first in the plaza but it is located near a McDonald's. Looked big from outside but was a decent size inside with a good amount of tables and seating space. Service was really fast, got seated quick and they were fast to take our orders which was crazy at first but they were on it with service so I appreciated that. Even the food came out pretty fast. Saw that the Beef Noodle Soup was good so I had to try it, the beef broth was delicious and I love bok choy so they had me at bok choy! Beef was nicely cooked too, I liked it! Dan Dan noodles were okay and it felt like it was spicy peanut butter but still good, just not my favorite. But the pork dumplings (xiao long bao) was YUMMY. It really hit the spot when we grabbed one each and the warmth and taste was delicious. Definitely my favorite! Pork and crab dumplings were good too! I was just too full at that point to have more of it all. I'd say this place satisfied my hunger and I left there super full so I'll comeback again :)
