HL Peninsula Garden is a Chinese restaurant offering a beautiful view of the bay, making it a great location for gatherings and plane watching. The restaurant features a hotpot with various vegetable options, and each person can have their own pot, catering to both vegetarians and meat lovers. They also offer a private room with a minimum charge of $900. While the food is standard and prices are on the higher side, their wok dishes are tasty. The restaurant has many vegetarian options, including BBQ style and fried rice without meat. It is also known for its dim sum, with popular items like pigeon, black steamed egg yolk buns, and steamed chicken feet, which are soft, juicy, and flavorful. The tea is very reasonably priced. The place offers a karaoke system with high-quality equipment, enjoyable for both kids and adults. It is located south of SFO, providing a good view of planes landing and taking off. The restaurant has lots of parking, but service can sometimes feel inattentive, especially when busy, and most staff do not speak English. The atmosphere is quiet, and the space is suitable for those seeking a peaceful dining experience. All the food is fresh, and choosing what's in season makes it even tastier. For larger groups, the big round tables come with the added bonus of individual hot pots built right into the table, making it easier to order dishes when you have a bigger group (3+ people). The dim sum is especially praised for its fresh ingredients and rich, flavorful dishes, with the fried oyster cake being a decent option, though not quite as authentic as in Singapore. Overall, the quality food and cozy environment make HL Peninsula Garden a popular spot for a relaxing and enjoyable meal.
