Dim Sum Restaurants near Castro Valley, CA

“This is a massive restaurant with a sea of tables and some private party rooms. It sometimes feels more like a giant ballroom than a restaurant. They also have a bakery next door. The food and the service are very good!
Overall, we had a very good experience.“

“Finding high-quality dim sum delivery that doesn't arrive soggy or smashed is rare, but Dim Sum SL absolutely nailed it. Everything was packaged securely, arrived piping hot, and stayed completely intact during transit. If you are looking for the best dim sum takeout in the area, this spot is highly efficient.

The food breakdown:

Shrimp and Chive Fried Dumplings: Easily the highlight of the order. The wrapper had a perfect, crispy golden fry to it without being oily at all. The filling was incredibly flavorful, packed with fresh chives and plump shrimp.

Shrimp Dumplings (Har Gow): Excellent execution. The translucent dumpling skin had the perfect chew and didn't tear when picking them up. Inside, they use actual high-quality, whole choice pieces of snap-fresh shrimp instead of a filler paste.

Pork and Shrimp Dumplings (Siu Mai): A classic done right. These were savory, juicy, beautifully seasoned, and packed tight with a great balance of pork and shrimp flavor.

Fried Buns: The buns had a good chewy texture—crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. The dough has a subtle, mild sweetness to it that pairs perfectly with the savory interior ingredients.

It is incredibly impressive to get restaurant-quality dim sum delivered right to your door without losing any freshness or texture. Everything tasted great. Highly recommended!“

“Everything about this location I can safely say is so fulfilling. The hand pulled and cut noodles and thicknesses to your liking are simply beyond compare. The broth, the lovely meat that comes in the broth. Just about everything that you could want in a location to enjoy Dao has without question. I was lucky enough to visit this location with my brother and his wife. We were thoroughly impressed and completely blown away by everything, including the truffle and shrimp dumplings along with everything, including the green beans every other side dish that you could possibly want. I am so very excited to try the beef roll because that is one of my particular favorites. When frequenting certain dumpling houses or places with hand pulled noodles. I can certainly say that I will be back here many times over. I cannot believe that this location is open late to help serve people like myself. Definitely a night owl. I simply enjoy the fact that this location by so many different San Leandro institutions can certainly become another one and I cannot wait to get back and have myself a bowl of noodles. I also cannot wait to try the variety of dumplings that I have missed so far. Given that week and only order so much at each instance, I can safely say that this location is just some of the finest that you could hope for and enjoy with family and I certainly hope that you do the same at your next opportunity.“

“Very good food, esp. Dim Sum.“

“Love this place. They have some really great food. I usually try to visit for the Dim Sum. The portions are large. They have fresh fish and shellfish. Plenty of seating for a small or very large party. They have food to go as well. The Dinner menu is great. Very large portions on this list. I love the Calamari.“

“Still pretty good after the remodel. Great service including changing out our plates twice during dim sum which I did not expect. They constantly came over and took away plates. The items I thought very average include ham sui gok too much dough and not enough filling. Shrimp dumplings and Xiao mai and chang fun were ok. The chau siu puffs, malay sponge cake, and beef organs and offal were all excellent.“

“Good food, good service, reasonable prices“

“Delicious food and great dinner service! I want to try every dish on the menu. Everything is seasoned to perfection and the price is right. I loved the salted pepper ribs and honey walnut shrimp. Had a great time and looking forward to trying their dim sum!“

“Very authentic Cantonese clay pot dishes. Everything came out piping hot. The flavors are spot on. The place is clean and not crowded. Service is fast. The only negative is that the ribs in the pot we ordered were very chewy and the sliced meats in the porridge were also chewy. However all the cured meats and sausages were perfect so we still enjoyed the dishes. Will definitely come back to try another time.“

“Whole in the wall with very tasteful and authentic dimsum and more, our go to place. Very affordable prices and variety of selections. Chef’s little girl is so cute, and already very good customer service attentiveness at a young age. Highly recommended to try this place out!“

“The place is clean and bright. The food was delicious and service was prompt and friendly. I love that there is plenty of parking and while the restaurant was about half full while we were there, it was quiet enough for my friend and me to have a good conversation without feeling like we have to shout or lean across the table to hear each other. Will be coming back for sure!“

“I love Tin’s Tea Pot! You get this quality food for this price point. I’ve been here a few times and was heartened to see it busier than usual. They totally deserve it!

We ordered their vegetable dumplings, a veggie lo mein dish and their rice soup which when combined with the plant was AMAZING!“

“My long time place for delicious chinese food. The dumplings are good: try the lamb with zuccini and chicken with spinich for a real treat. The dim sum is the best in the Hayward area. Oustanding dishes are: cucumber with garlic and fungus, salt and pepper chicken wings, tender vegetables with filet fish, string beans with chicken, Egg Foo Young (unbeliably great), walnut prawns, won ton soup, knife cut chow mein with mixed meat and shrimp. All portions are large and properly packaged. I only do delivery orders with BEYOND MENU who favors local businesses so I have no rating for servive or atmosphere. This place is a find!“

“Delicious donuts and hopia at a reasonable price😋“

“The food here was AMAZING! The service was very quick and all of the waitstaff were extremely kind and welcoming. I don't have any pictures to include because my friends and I ate it so quickly after it came out! Would highly suggest this as a dimsum spot for people to come eat!“
