Overall: 3.8 *** out of 5 — solid dim sum with some standout bites and friendly vibes
Dim sum hit the spot here! Highlights were the delicate ha gow, silky shrimp rice noodle rolls, crispy taro dumplings, savory tofu roll, juicy roast duck, tender Chinese broccoli, comforting preserved egg and chicken congee, golden sesame balls, and the crispy fried dumpling with a tasty pork filling. The shumai was a miss—oversized and lacking depth—and the tofu with gravy didn’t quite land. Service was warm and attentive, which made the experience even better.

Delicious Cantonese restaurant! The staff are so welcoming and make it feel like you are eating a home-cooked meal. Super generous portions and always leave feeling happy and full! Barbecued goose, steamed oysters with garlic, and clay pot dishes are a must.

Had the dimsum here and it is very good, so we figured dinner was going to be just as good 👍 and we were right! The salted fish fried rice is literally the best I’ve ever had! Clams were yummy and the beef with chow fun is very good. They had these chicken wings also that were very good, crispy but drenched with this flavorful sauce! Really good spot :)

The pork chops were amazing and crispy. It only took a few minutes from my order to taking my food out of the restaurant

This place does not deserve any stars if there were an option. If your not these people's race, they will treat you as if you were bottom of the barrel. You can say they are racist as this has been my 3rd visit. Food is okay not the greatest. They seem to always have big parties and serve them as a priority vs your the option. The serve we have has is a tall male server with black side swept hair. The times I visited with my family he’s given us the stare down as if he is profiling us. We are Hispanic and he always mentioned the price of the plate as if we cannot see it on the menu lol. Long story short, I tip based on service and if your service is lousy best believe I will not tip. Mind you this particular server does not refill our drinks , does not check up on us on how we are doing and lastly we need to fetch our own bill to pay. So basically why tip? Well last day I came here once we payed he said we are not welcome here because we did not tip. I did tell him I tip based on service and apparently as you can tell your service was not great you should take note on why you were not tipped. If your begging for tips it’s not our fault your position does not pay well enough and you shouldn’t be in the business if you are going to harass your customers for tips. CHINA VILLA is the place to go just in case other customers have experience this nonsense.

Great place for authentic Cantonese dinner. Dim sum is also great to enjoy as their pastry is absolutely delicious. My go-to with friends for dim sum if I'm ever out that way. Service is friendly and easy to wave down if you need anything. Place is medium spacious, maybe a few large tables inside. Outdoor seating in back. Parking lot on site helps with parking stress of alameda.

I ordered chow mein and asked for celery to be added and the guy was like no and then he said he said OK. And of course, when I got my order, there was no celery included. Then I find out he overcharged me the boot so I will not be returning to this restaurant ever again, even though it’s very convenient. I hope the person that took my order gets fired for being a jerk.

Yesterday I ordered yellow-haired chicken and clam porridge at noon. It only had chicken and no clams. And it was so expensive! Oh!

Nice dim sum with big portion, however, one waiter is quite rude when we ask for menu of congee. Not good service and attitude
Good food everyone seemed very nice and friendly, except for our waitress, today JUN 26 2024. She was 3/10 :( At the beginning we ordered only one plate to share, she didn't like that I guess anyway we were just trying the place for the first time and we were planning to other another entre as we told her, we ended up ordering the same entre again because it was so good ?

largely chopped vegetables, hardly any meat, hastily made dishes. Been eating Chinese food my whole life and have never had such hastily made unrefined food like this. And for the price, you might as well go to Panda Express.
