Dim Sum Restaurants near Monrovia, CA

“Great Pork Dumplings also really like the Beef & Cheese“

“Located in a large strip mall, so lots of free parking. They’re tucked away in the corner. Not a lot of tables, but very clean. The food was great and the serving sizes were larger than I anticipated. I’d definitely choose this place over L&L. They have a big food menu and drink menu. I look forward to coming back.“

“Best lo mai gai I’ve had in San Gabriel!

The owner (?) was so kind and allowed us to come in just as it was about to close. Dishes were ready with zero wait time and we were not rushed at all. The tea was fragrant and strong, and the sticky rice was DELICIOUS! Ordered congee but were so full we couldn’t finish it, reheated it for dinner and was still great! Also a huge fan of the garlic spare ribs. Overall, I highly recommend this place and believe this business deserves to be supported and thriving based on the service and food.“

“We had a great Mommy outing. The glass partitions made us feel safe.“

“We had the **Crab Roe Noodles** and the **Crab Soup Dumplings**, and both were absolutely worth ordering.

The **Crab Roe Noodles** were rich, buttery, and packed with umami. The crab roe coated every strand of noodle beautifully, creating a silky texture without feeling overly heavy. You could really taste the quality of the ingredients.

The **Crab Soup Dumplings** were equally impressive. The wrapper was delicate, and each dumpling was filled with a flavorful, savory broth and a generous amount of crab. Every bite was comforting and satisfying.

The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere, the service was friendly, and the food felt thoughtfully prepared. If you're a fan of crab or Shanghainese cuisine, Auntie Qiu Kitchen is definitely a place I'd recommend. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu!“

“Prince Dumpling really impressed me. The service was friendly and attentive, and the food came out fast and fresh. The standout for me was the sky‑high beef cubes—perfectly seasoned, tender, and easily my favorite dish of the night.

The whole experience felt smooth and enjoyable, and I’d definitely come back to try more of the menu. One tip for anyone visiting: wear long sleeves. The AC runs cold, so you’ll enjoy the meal a lot more if you’re not freezing.

Overall, great food, great service, and a spot worth returning to.“

“Came in for lunch with a couple friends and had a pretty good experience overall. The dim sum selection was larger than I expected, and most of the dishes arrived hot and fresh. The shrimp dumplings were probably my favorite, while a few of the buns were just okay. Service was friendly, though it got a little slow once the place filled up. The restaurant had a nice atmosphere and felt clean and welcoming. Prices seemed fair for the amount of food we ordered. I'd definitely come back to try some of the items I missed this time around.“

“We had a great Mommy outing. The glass partitions made us feel safe.“

“A tremendously cute little hole in the wall dim sum place. As mentioned previously, this is not a big restaurant where food is brought out: you order at the counter and they bring out food piping hot and freshly steamed. That said, each dish was big restaurant quality and they were even nice enough to let us eat at their sole table there. The dumplings were balanced and well seasoned, and the pastries were tasty (not too sweet!) and well baked. Would absolutely go again.“

“Xiao Long Bao - so delicious compare to Dai Tai Fung“

“This is a nice casual Hong Kong style dim sum place. They steam the dishes when ordered so they taste good. There are a few tables inside so you can eat inside. I tried the classic dim sum dishes pork Siu mai, shrimp har Kao, and Xiao long Bao. They were quite well made. I also had their pork congee. They were authentic Hong Kong dishes and priced reasonably. Parking is limited on the main parking lot. There are more spaces at the parking lot one level lower entered around the block.“

“So glad to know there are other options when you're in the mood for dumplings! We plan to come back to try the rest of the menu! Seeing other patrons ordering items we did not intrigued us so we have to come back and try those items next time!
What we ordered: xiao long bao (buy 1 get 1 free so we ordered pork and pork&shrimp), beef wrap and spicy beef noodle soup. Good! Would order again! But like I said. Gotta try the rest of the menu. 😉“

“This is a very small dim sum place, one two table for 4 person, and 2 tables for 2. So maximum only 12 people can dine it. However, the dim sum here is one of the best we have had. Siu mai was rich in flavor and meaty. Stick rice and cheong fun were both top notched. Xiao longbao was juicy too. Due to the small dining area, I imagined it will be difficult at peak hour. Or you just need to take out. But if you do take out, the dim sum may not taste as good. Dilemma. But we were very happy with the food and service.“

“Another new dim sum place to try!

Slightly different flavors on some classics, but everything was very good. Good value. Everything on the front of the menu is $4.88. The back side is $14 (beef chow fun, etc.)

Sorry. No pics this time. I post next time.“

“Shrinkflation is real, haven't been here since 2019, but they're still quite tasty. Cash only, prices aren't as high as expected. You don't really need to talk to them if you prefer that, just fill in what you want on their menu and pay. Familiar HK fare but quite delicious“

“Best roast duck!!! I always thought Sam Woo was the best , but their duck is delicious. Everything was freshly made!!“

“Delicious and flavorful dim sum! Portion sizes are huge! They aren't the little tiny servings at the dim sum restaurants.

It's take out only. And cash is preferred but they take credit cards too.

This is an old school mom and pop place and the owners are super gracious and down to earth! Prices are cheap too!

Go support them!“

“I was looking for somewhere to meet up with a colleague for lunch and CP came highly recommended. My colleague did the ordering. I found the taste and selection of dim sum to be one of the highlights. CP does get noisy. Service is excellent. Restaurant comps underground parking.“

“Great Dim Sum spot for classic dim sum food and not too long on wait for a table.“

“my family took me to celebrate father's day to this place . first let me tell you the food is better then din tai fung and cheaper. if you looking to explore another place to eat you must try coming here. the restaurant is small place to seat down we waited 45 minutes to seat but it worth it ..“

“Best authentic dim sum in this area -hands down. They offer special dim sum dishes like scallop shumai in xo sauce and abalone shrimp shumai in xo sauce to name a few. Both were delicious! Serve the traditional dim sum dishes as well which are amazing! Great quality and value. Highly recommend them and tell them I sent you! Cheers!“
