Sea Harbour is back from the dead after having reopened on September 1. Same menu ànd food is the same. Front of the house personnel may have changed since there were layoffs when they closed. I'm guessing they got new financing to pull this off.
Had a really really great experience last week. So I needed a reservation for a large party (25ish), and looking at the Yelp reviews, I had some concerns about my reservation falling through if I made one. Anyway I call about 2 weeks ahead of time to make a reservation and was able to get one for Sunday 12:45pm. A week prior, I called again just to confirm and they still had my reservation. They informed me to show up early to check in. Once the day came, I checked in early and they had everything ready for me. They opened one table first while they were clearing the other 2 and allowed my party to sit down first. We were able to order and pay via 3 separate tables smoothly. Food was great like always. You order on a sheet and people come by to drop off the food. Everything was so good! The only thing I will say though is, they don't really speak mandarin or English. English is better than mandarin, but their main language is Cantonese. So be prepared for language barriers and some employees speak certain languages better than others. But we had such a great experience as a large party and will definitely be back!
I have not been back to Sea Harbour in a LONG time (like over a decade) as there is always a good line of people waiting for dim sum. So... 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. Food is legit and I'd say the best item was the Shao Mai since they use truffle on top instead of fish roe. 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. And, you order from the menus in my pics and dim sum pricing is based on the size of the dim sum. Check out my pics!
Can't believe I grew up in LA and never visited here... moved to the Bay Area and love the dim sum there but Sea Harbour is even better than that! It is especially crowded, busy, and noisy on the weekends but thankfully our group of 9 somehow managed to get the private room in the back! So much more peaceful with quality service providing refills and bringing the dim sum. Everything they made had a great blend of flavors and the buns in particular had a wonderful fluffiness with delicious fillings. Parking can be hard though so street parking a block or so over works.
For Lunar New Year, my family and I came here to celebrate and ordered a variety of dishes to share. The restaurant was very crowded, and we waited about an hour to be seated, which is understandable for a holiday. Overall, the food tasted really good. The restaurant is spacious, which is especially nice for a dim sum spot. The service was also good; the staff were attentive and friendly throughout our visit. It was actually our first time coming here, and I was pleasantly surprised. I think their dim sum is quite good compared to other places. One thing I really liked was how thin the noodle skin was, especially on the shrimp rolls and other dishes that use rice noodle wraps; it made everything taste more delicate and fresh. We enjoyed our experience and would definitely consider coming back.
Sea Harbour consistently proves why it's a true institution for high quality, authentic Cantonese style cuisine. Their weekend dim sum was so good I ordered a lot of dim sum for 2 of us , and everything was delicious. I was honestly surprised when I got the bill , it was much cheaper than I expected! If I had eaten the same amount at my favorite dim sum spot in Irvine, it would have cost more. The atmosphere is lively and bustling, perfect for family gatherings, though it can get quite noisy when crowded. Service is efficient and attentive, with tea refilled constantly and dishes arriving quickly and piping hot. Parking can be a challenge, so be prepared to hunt for a spot, especially on busy weekends.
This establishment is very quick with service, attentive, and the food was so delicious. The wait is worth it. I would definitely come back and eat here again. Good portions, price are good. My Fav dishes were the Black bean spare ribs, wet noodle (seafood), chicken feet. Everything was delicious. Next time I want to come for the shrimp dumping.
I'm going to say it - best dim sum for the price in California. And before you say SF has good dim sum, not at sea harbour's level or price. My credentials? Hong Kong born and grew up eating LOTS of Cantonese food and dim sum. Sea harbour does put a nice twist on the iconic dishes - truffle siu mai, french style baked char siu bao. When you're here, you're here for the food, not the service, but that doesn't matter when I'm fighting over the last har gow with my cousin. Was here for a family dinner recently, and their seafood is fresh and prepared to perfection. Come for the dim sum, stay for the geoduck
We've always seen a crowd waiting for seats when we drive by. We finally decided to go with a couple group of family members this past Sunday 5/31/2026, I arrived at 10:30am to get a seat/number and there was so much parking!...come to find a yellow caution tape with a handwritten "WE ARE CLOSED" note blocking the WALKWAY to the entrance. I ducked past the tape and saw a "vermin infestation" note from the health department. No idea how long the closure will be but I'm still gonna visit once they re-open. We ended up going to Longo Seafood which was okay but could've been better in terms of flavor.
This dim sum spot is always poppin' with long lines. There's always a crowd whenever I drive by, but we decided to finally make our way over. There a decent sized parking lot in the back and I didn't have any trouble finding a spot on a Sunday afternoon. Unfortunately, the seating took much longer. They do have a digital screen showing your check-in time organized by table sizes, which is nice. For a table of 5, we waited almost an hour. You get a sheet to mark down your orders from dim sum to entrees. The menu has pictures, which is super helpful if you're not as familiar. We ordered 9 dim sum dishes and one Sparerib & Chinese Sausage Rice Casserole ($16.80). This is delicious with the crispy rice edges and flavor great on the tender meat. All the dim sum dishes ranged from $5-10 each and everything was good. I have to say that the dishes here are slightly more unique than your usual dim sum though, which feels more elevated. Some favorites are the Salted Egg Yolk Buns, Steamed Rice Noodle with Chinese Donut & Shrimp, Deep Fried Pork Dumplings, and Egg White Custard Tarts.
Sea Harbor Restaurant serves some of the best dim sum in the SGV. The restaurant is very busy on the weekends; we waited over an hour from 11:10am to around 12:20pm for a table for four on a busy Sunday. The wait list is divided into sections of 3 and under, 4 to 6, 7 to 8 and 9 plus. Longest wait is for the two smaller groupings and can be an hour or more in the middle of a busy weekend. Suggest coming in a large group as you'll be seated quickly. A table of 7 was seated in five minutes. Sea Harbor is a typical dim sum house as the place is loud, workers are busy but very competent - always checking on your teapot, checking on you if you look like you want to order more, and quick to bring missing items if you say you're still waiting or want to cancel an item. LOL, I looked at our checked off order sheet twice during our meal and a lady came running over each time to ask if we wanted to order more. Ha ha, we ordered 15 items for the four of us with three small boxes to take home. Can be pricey as we spent $150 with tax and tip for the four of us. Favorite items were the Runny Salted Egg Lava Buns, Truffle Siu Mai, Scallop & Shrimp Dumpling, the Abalone Sauce Tofu (should be hotter), the French Style BBQ Bun (had bigger and warmer elsewhere), and the Chicken Feet. All of the other items were passable with least favorite being the Steamed Black Bean Pork Riblets (Bland), Har Guow / Shrimp Dumpling (small and bland), and Hom Sei Gok / Fried Meat Dumpling (not hot, a bit flattened, and not crunchy exterior) and Egg White Tart (egg white is probably better for you but bland as heck). Overall: crowded, loud, you will wait, decent dim sum, not the cleanest since they have such high volume, and surprisingly very attentive service even when busy. The restaurant has a large parking lot and adjacent street parking on busy Rosemead or nearby side streets. Expect to wait for a table on the weekends if you're in a small group.
We hadn't been here in years, but our group of 11 decided to have lunch on a recent Sunday. As usual, the line was out the door. My friend had called the day before to make a reservation, but when we arrived, there was no record of it. After some confusion, the staff managed to seat us, most of the group at a large table, and three of us at a smaller one by the fish tank. We ordered a variety of dishes from the menu, but honestly, everything tasted rather bland, which was surprising given how busy this place still gets. The food also came out very slowly, so slow that one of our dishes didn't arrive until after we had already received the bill! The waitress seemed surprised to see it and almost took it back. Because of the way the receipt was itemized, we couldn't even tell if we were charged for it, but the whole interaction felt awkward, as if she thought we were trying to get something for free. In the end, the total came to about $120 for three people after tax and tip, which feels steep for dim sum, especially considering the service and food quality.
A solid 3.5/5. I would highly recommend calling ahead to place a takeout order or to make a reservation for dining in. Some of the workers are more willing to help and provide decent service, while others, like the cashier, were not friendly. I ordered takeout, and they didn't even let me know that my order was ready until I went up to ask again about 25-30 minutes later. My favorite items were the steamed chicken feet, the steamed rice noodle with Chinese donut and shrimp, and the bean curd skin roll with seafood in abalone sauce. In addition, the steamed lava salted egg yolk bun was pretty good, and the buns were nice and soft. On the other hand, the pork and shrimp dumpling with truffle sauce, as well as the shrimp dumpling (har gow), were decent, but the portions were much smaller than expected, especially the har gow. It was quite tiny, and considering the price, it wasn't worth it for me. They have their own parking lot, but it fills up pretty quickly, so plan ahead.

Food: Dare I say this is where I've had some of the best dim sum in the SGV? Everything tasted fresh and well balanced and it wasn't overly priced. The Pork & Shrimp Dumpling with Truffle Sauce deserves a special mention. Service: There's been a wait the few times I've been here--on a Sunday at noon, it can be an upward of an hour, depending on your party size. Food comes out quickly, once you've ordered. Ambiance: Casual, traditional. Larger tables have the lazy Susan. Parking: Adjacent parking lot, but can be busy during peak hours, so can take a min to find an open spot. However, street parking is also available. read more

I'm afraid to give it a 5 star because it will ruin the perfect 3.5 star (IYKYK). Be sure to make a reservation and/or get there early. There is a line that forms before opening. We had a group of 20+, wifey made reservations, and seated right away. We ordered everything on the menu but the black truffle shumai was a highlight, as well as the healthy chicken feet. All dishes were great but if I were to pass on one, it would be the labaco. No option for pan fried and too thick. I'm only giving it a four because I don't want to change the 3.5 star (Asian perfect) rating. read more

Came here when they opened on a Saturday morning, and was directed to stand in line with everyone else who didn't have reservations even when we had reservations. The process/system was a little confusing. Either way come early, the line wraps around the building during open, but it felt like it went by quick. The dim sum was great. The truffle siu mai, gold flake salty egg buns, and shrimp dumplings all tasted as delicious as they looked or were hyped up to be. Busy atmosphere, just as you'd expect any dim sum place to be. They don't push carts here. Waited awhile after getting our table to get started. Had to wave down staff to get their attention to get water, tea, and place our order. Had to ask for some things multiple times before getting it. read more
Came on Christmas Day for lunch, and it was packed! The wait was estimated 2 hours, so we decided to skip the line and get take out. We waited around 20 minutes for the food. I'd recommend the truffle shumai, steamed rice noodle with Chinese donut & shrimp, house no. 1 baked bbq pork bun, and sticky rice wrapped with lotus leaf. Everything else was good but didn't stand out as much as the ones above. I also saw lots of people at the restaurant order the radish cakes and the steamed lava salty egg yolk bun! Will order those next time! Service - you'll need to be aggressive to get your order. It seems like they're fairly fast when bringing out food! Parking - they have their own private lot, but when it gets packed (which it does), you'll need to park on the street. read more
This is my fav dim sum spot! I have been going here for as long as I can remember since they opened about 20 years ago. There's no pushing carts and you order off a menu and the server takes your order. You MUST get the egg tarts here. They're white instead of yellow because they use egg whites. It has a unique taste! I prefer it over traditional egg tarts. My other "must" is the milk bun. I have never been to another dim sum place that has a milk bun like theirs. It is especially good when you are dining in and eating them warm and fresh. Long waits on weekends and parking can be difficult but nothing too terrible! There's abundant residential street parking if their lot is full. read more

Came here on a Sunday for Dim Sum and it was not worth the nearly 3 hour wait. I've never written a negative review but the wait was a little ridiculous. The restaurant prioritizes bigger groups so bigger parties that showed up way later got seated first. When we asked how long the wait was they shut us away and said that you just have to wait. Besides the experience waiting, I will say it was a good spot for decent dim sum. I don't think it's anything crazy as I've had better dim sum in other states but would give this a solid 7/10. The dishes were all solid but nothing blew my taste buds away. Will I be back, probably not cause the insane wait for okay dim sum is a little much. I would've went somewhere else if I had known the wait was this ridiculous. read more
Sea Harbour never disappoints -- it's one of the best dim sum spots in SoCal! Everything tastes fresh and made-to-order instead of coming around on carts. The siu mai with truffle was flavorful and juicy, the shrimp rice rolls were silky and perfectly seasoned, and the steamed spareribs were tender and savory. The egg tarts were the perfect sweet finish -- flaky, creamy, and still warm! Service is quick and efficient even when it's packed (which it usually is), and the food always comes out hot and fresh. Prices are a little higher than your average dim sum place, but totally worth it for the quality. Definitely recommend coming early because the wait can get long -- but it's so worth it once you're seated! read more
The service is impeccable. They help you if you have any questions each step of the way. I was very appreciative of the attentiveness. I would say the ambiance is family oriented. Something you could bring friends too. The food is tasty. The dim sum is a tad thinker outer covering but all delicious. Definitely order the green beans it was very tasty. Also take time and ask for tea too. All in all I see why Michelin inspector suggests this place as somewhere to try for good value. read more
I was craving some dim sum during a Friday morning but wanted to try a different location from my usual go to spots. I've been wanting to try Chef Tony's location but found out the Monterey Park location changed ownership recently, so I decided to return to one of his original locations in Rosemead CA. There's a private parking lot in the back and limited street parking in front of the restaurant. I waited about 15 minutes after signing in on the tablet. You won't find any dim sum carts here, but the service was quite attentive, decorated nicely, and the entrees arrived quickly after sipping on a few cups of hot tea. The dim sum was piping hot, flavorful and made with quality ingredients. I'm normally not a Phoenix claws fan but tried one and was impressed with how perfectly the texture and taste was. All the entree's exceeded my expectations. Overall, this dim sum eatery met all my marks for a solid dim sum dining experience, so I'll definitely be returning here again. read more
Sea Harbour is Chef Tony without Chef Tony. I can't compare them to any Southern California Chef Tony location as the only one I've been to was in Richmond, BC. We walked in one day on a weekday afternoon. No reservations needed. We were seated about 10 minutes later. You order off the paper menu they give you. No carts here. Instead, they make you wait for the staff to bring it out to you. The food looked like it was made by the JV team as it was not as aesthetically pleasing as I thought it would be. The quality ingredients were there. They aren't like the Chef Tony location in Canada where you get 5 har gow and siu mai per order; you only get 4 here. They were okay. The food was good, though it was not the best looking dimsum I've seen. I'll be back when someone else pays. read more

Seafood harbor is arguably the best dim sum in the area. They are known for their liberal use of truffle oil on many of their dishes and chef tony. Their standouts are the truffle fried rice dish, shu Mai, tofu albalone. This is the best dim sum restaurant to go during normal working hours. That being said the wait for a table on a weekend lunch is unbearable (2-3hrs) but for reasons the public is unaware of. They have a revolving list of VIP and family/friends in the area that will come during the lunch weekend and they do not have to wait in line. We saw this happen repeatedly with 10+ parties while the general public waited for 2+ hours in line. They have a limited number of tables for party's for 3 or less so those parties have less priority. Even if a table of 4 opens up they will favor parties of 4+ by adding chairs to those tables. Currently they are understaffed and service is very disorganized. We routinely had to flag waiters down for water, ordering, tea refills, etc. If you miss the initial restaurant opening service consider lunasia dim sum on valley blvd, alhambra as they are very close 2nd with a more manageable 45 minute-1hr wait. read more
I've been coming to this dim sum restaurant for years with my friends and family. It's a Michelin Star Dimsum Restaurant and the dim sum is so delicious. My last visit was last Sunday, August 24th. Before, I went there in July 2024 last year, and that visit was tough--we ended up waiting almost two hours. Since I have low blood sugar, I was starving and felt like I was about to faint at that time. After that, I've never visited again. But my Mom really loves their dim sum and kept saying she missed it, so we decided to give it another try. We went again on Sunday, August 24. This time, we arrived right when they opened at 10 AM and it was perfect--no wait at all, we were seated immediately. But, around 10:20 am, people were already lining up and waiting. The food is so tasty. The only downside is the wait can get extremely long if you don't go early. And, Service : this time was better than in the past, but I have to say in previous visits it was frustrating--some servers didn't understand English, and a few times they just ignored requests altogether. So, I had to call the manager to get things sorted. Overall, the dim sum makes it worth coming back, but I definitely recommend arriving right at opening time to avoid the long waits. read more

Sea harbour is my fav dim sum spot in so cal. Got here at 10 right when they open. Plenty of parking seated right away. I know it's not a thing but I only wish they had sate aka hot sauce. The service is always great. The food is next level to me Favorites. Chicken feet. Shrimp rice noodles. Hakow. The black bun with the egg yolk. Bomb. Literally everything here is great read more
Sea Harbour used to be our go-to-spot for dim sum but after today, might not be back for awhile. Well, certain items like their truffle shumai, seafood porridge, and lotus wrapped sticky rice were pretty good. The others were not great. We ordered the spicy jellyfish and it was so bland and not crunchy at all that we almost sent it back. The other items were all just "okay" and pretty much like everywhere else you can find dim sum. We didn't have to wait on a Thursday around noon. Not really sure they which owners or they switched dim sum chef but this was not as good as I remember Sea Harbour to be. Pretty disappointing read more
I've been coming to this dim sum spot for years, and it never disappoints. It's always consistent, with really solid, fine-dining-style dim sum. I love that they keep the classics done right, but also mix in little upgrades here and there, truffles in some dishes that make it feel a bit special without being too fancy. It's one of those places you can always count on for good food and a great dim sum fix. read more
I've been sleeping on this place! Never gave this place much thought but it's been so good lately. Their dimsum quality is up there and prices might be a bit higher but for good reason. They also have a few items not offered anywhere else. I came at opening one time and the line wrapped around half of the building. There's usually a slight wait but it's constantly moving. Took my parents here today and they also agreed its better than our usual spot. Def one of the top dimsum restaurants in the area! read more

Shame on us for stupidly partaking in dim sum or yum cha at this popular and former Michelin-star-awarded Chinese restaurant on Saturday, a typical Chinese Family Day, without making reservations! Our December vacation was quickly ending , and after stuffing ourselves with Taiwanese, Mexican, Spanish, Italian, Thai, Vietnamese, and modern Chinese cuisine, my husband and brother-in-law, who can eat Chinese food seven days a week, convinced me to agree to have dim sum or yum cha at Sea Harbour Seafood Restaurant. Admittedly, I've had Sea Harbour restaurant bookmarked for several years and it didn't take much to "twist my arm" into agreement. I mapped our course and found that it would take us less than half an hour to travel 26 miles. Upon approaching Sea Harbour Seafood Restaurant, we noticed the outdoor walkway lined with people, but we still turned into the crowded parking lot, even though we suggested going elsewhere. However, we lucked out and got into a parking stall that someone had just vacated. We made our way to the restaurant's entrance. We felt like we walked through a gauntlet of hungry and patient customers before reaching the receptionist desk, where we checked in on the waitlist at 11:15 AM. The huge restaurant, with a capacity of nearly 300, looked like it was completely filled, and the staff expertly weaved and bobbed their way through the crowd, taking and delivering food and beverage orders. After waiting 30 minutes, we noticed there didn't seem to be much movement in the wait list even though several tables cleared. I noticed that I could have downloaded their reservation app but found that there wasn't anything available until 1:30 PM. We still maintained our positive outlook as we did see several parties who had checked in before us get seated. We liked their seating wait list and reservation process as we patiently watched the digital display while a female worker called out the wait list numbers by group size and check-in time. We waited slightly over two hours before our number was called, but we felt pity for the groups that had checked in after us. As soon as we were seated, our server, Gina spoke Cantonese, introduced herself, and asked us for a tea selection. I replied with our tea choice (heung pin or jasmine) and asked for glasses of iced water and Tsingtao beers for our group of three. She gave us the order sheet and pictorial menus and scurried to a workstation with our teapot, cups, and glasses of iced water. The menu featured famliar steamed, baked, pan-fried and deep fried dim sum dishes. We would typically order the "four Heavenly kings of dim sum," which are siu mai 燒賣, char siu bao 叉燒包, har gow 蝦餃, and daan tot 蛋撻. However, even though the menu and food photos distracted us, we still got them but enhanced by Sea Harbour restaurant. FOOD: - Jelly Fish Salad with Spicy Sauce -Deep Fried Smelt in Spicy Salt -Sticky Rice with Preserved Meats -Poached Chinese Broccoli with Oyster Sauce -Bean Curd Skin Roll with Seafood in Abalone Sauce -Shrimp Dumplings (har gow) -Pork & Shrimp Dumplings with Truffle Sauce -Ginger Chicken & Pork Bun -Deep Fried Pork Sticky Rice Puff -Assorted Seafood Fried Crispy Noodle Our food and beverage bill came up to nearly $150 with tax and tip but the flavors, varieties, and amount of food that we ordered were well worth the nearly two hour wait. Gina made us feel welcomed and was very attentive without being intrusive. She provided us with service that we're not usually accustomed to at Chinese restaurants in Honolulu, elsewhere on the Mainland, or abroad. We'd gladly return to Sea Harbour Seafood Restaurant, but when we do, I'll make dining reservations. read more
This place is not your typical dim sum place! No older ladies pushing the cart around. You place your order on a piece of paper and the quantity of each items. Whenever I passed by there is always a long line and I'm glad my friends and I went tried this place. Service could definitely be better. It was hard to get a server attention. Besides that aspect, the food was amazing. Every dish was so flavorful! Depends on what you order, it is categorized by size or special plating and has its own price rank. A lot of the items we got have a hint of truffle to it. Would say this is one of the better dim sum place I had. read more
The shu mai here was incredible. The shrimp at lunasia was better the last time we went, but everything here was great. Skip the congee. I'd suggest getting the hargow and the rice noodle first and get the more complex stuff later. read more

Until what time is the dimsum?
I believe Dim Sum service ends at 4...we arrived just after 5 and it had already ended.
Do they serve dim sum with the carts? I don't see any pictures with carts. Thank you.
The dim sum is made fresh from your orders, there're no cards
Any vegan options?
Is dimsum all day or specific time only?
For now dim sum is all day since the restaurant closes at 6:30pm.
How long is the wait usually on a Saturday or Sunday during brunch time?
Sorry, just went one time and no wait at all but I think it was because of COVID. Hardly any customers inside.

Can I pay with discovery?
Better call before heading, they might take discover, but for sure will charge you a bit more
Can we order to-go?
Yes. You can order to go, but don't expect the same quality as the food sits in the To-Go. Since they are made to order and would be at its best when you eat them freshly made. There are items that would not be good to go. (Need to be aware of…
