Big disappointment for frequent customers due to inferior Dim sum: we have been coming here for many years. For the past few years the quality of Dim sum has continuously gone down. Service is great but ... First their shrimp egg rolls kept getting smaller. Now there is no shrimp in the shrimp egg rolls, only a shrimp tasting paste. The real shrimp is gone. This is so sad.
Then we tried their lunch special and it was just OK, no soup, no egg roll, nothing special. It is sad to see this place deteriorate like this.

We had dinner there with friends and the food was ok. I want to go back because the dim sum looks so good, but the bathroom was so disgustingly dirty, makes me wonder how clean the kitchen is??

We haven’t eaten here for years, but decided to stop by for some fresh steamed fish while we were in the area. The fish was indeed fresh and prepared properly, though the weight that we’d paid for seemed to be less than the actual weight. Other dishes were good as well. A corkage fee of $25 was reasonable.

We were in Pasadena/Acadia area last Saturday (9/13/25) around lunch time, we knew a restaurant called Capital Restaurant and the google map led us to this place. It was not the restaurant in my mind but we were hungry. We waited for about 5 minutes and got a table for three. Most of the customers were there for dim sum but we were not. We did order several dim sum to start with and we ordered the French beef and a big lobster, same as we did a week ago in Newport Seafood Restaurant in Rowland Heights. The food in this restaurant was at least same or even better than what we got a week ago. Lobster market price was 29$/lb and ours was 4.5 lbs, this is slightly cheaper but the taste was really good, the only difference was the noodle portion from this restaurant was slightly less than the one we had before. I definitely recommend the big lobster dish to everyone who loves lobster.

A traditional Chinese dim sum and Chinese restaurant. Food was delicious and came to the table quickly. Congee was perfect along with the Chinese broccoli, turnip cakes, bok choy and buns. We will be back. We'll worth the drive to Arcadia!!

The food is served freshly and authentically. Even my Chinese mom is impressed with the food. The portion sizes are generous and the prices are very good. If you want to have a feast on a budget, this is the place to go

Food was good however the way staff treated us was not the best service they could provide. We ordered 8 dishes because we know we can finish it but the lady working there came and told us we are ordering too much and we don’t need to order that much. She was judging us by the way we looked and it seems like they were doubting us to finish the plates or maybe even be paying for the bill.We went in our comfy clothes with sweatpants and a shirt but they were judging us over that too. The overall staff treatment was the same and they were judging us from what we order. Not coming back here unless they make some changes to their service.

Worst service I have ever experienced. Asked what was vegan and the waiter told me, just look at the menu. I was shocked and told him to come over and explain what was vegan to me again and he still refused. My dad had to tell him to talk to me and when he came, he gave so much attitude and it felt like he was just saying yes that anything was vegan without actually knowing. A couple behind us started getting mad and frustrated at him because he didn’t know anything about the menu but wouldn’t go to the back to check. I feel like he was the manager too. Service is terrible, don’t come here. Food is mid and it’s not at all the restaurant it was in the past. If you have dietary restrictions or standards for hospitality, wouldn’t trust this place to be honest.

Excellent, affordable dim sum.
