This place has that old chinese gangster movie banquet style feel ... with that chinese cuisine that you see in all the movies. Good food with that classic nostalgic feel. Remember to wipe down your utensils and dishes before use ... may or may not have been rinsed thoroughly.

Nice view at the Alameda pier, relatively fast service, and not too expensive are the only positives here. Many of the common dim sum were tasteless. Many of them were over-steamed causing them to stick together or to the paper in the steaming baskets and fell apart when we tried to pick them up with chop sticks! The drive out of Alameda was awful too, as usual, so we won't return here again. There are SOOO many better dim sum restaurants in the Bay Area.

We have come here a few times before the Pandemic for the dimsum. It's a typical dimsum place. Food is alright with good selection. Price was a bit on the high side, but not outrageous. Service was typically hit or miss. Generally, the terrific view makes up for it.We recently visited again now that the Pandemic has calmed down. It's just our family like all the other times; so the same number of people (7) and in fact the same people. We ordered similar amount of food as the other times. This time, however, the bill came out more than twice what it used to cost us.Yes, Pandemic, inflation, etc. But more than 100% higher???!! This is not inflation. This is profiteering under the guise of inflation, and it adds to the economic problem we are already under.Now that I know their shenanigan, our family is never coming back again. Their food is not so good to overcome the disgusting greed on display. I hope others are forewarned and stay away. I certainly wish someone had told us about it.

4th time here. Came from Palo Alto to celebrate a belated Chinese New Year with my wife's family. Two banquet tables for 18 people. My wife's aunt pre-ordered our favorite dim sum dishes and they were all really good. Nice portions and the chicken feet were outstanding. One of my favorites and I'm one of the white guys in the family. Large, plump, tender and the sauce was perfect. Some of the best I've had. All the dishes were good. I understand the dinners are just as good. You just can't go wrong here.

I tried a lot if dim sum places in the bay area, but Pacific lighthouse is outstanding. Dim sum is bigger and taste is amazing. Very friendly atmosphere. Also important to notice, this place has good air inside, whereas most of oriental restaurants has that musty smell. I highly recommend to try it. By the way, dimsum here is bigger than in SF places, also price is lower.

We did not eat anything.
Dietary restrictions: The is restaurant does not do gluten-free. The wait staff did not understand the meaning of gluten free, even when translated to their language. They recommended several dishes that had “just a little bit of gluten.” Maybe the food is good, but it would not have worked for me.
They brought me chicken feet
