This is truly a mom and pop owned and operated Chinese village style restaurant. No carts, just order from the menu or pictures on the wall.The owners are very nice and take care of you like family.The food is absolutely delicious and each item has its own unique taste, flavor and aroma.The lamb skewers are a specialty here which no other Dim Sum place offers.Best to go for breakfast when it's slow and a table available right away. Enjoy

The restaurant is a bit small, can hold about 17 people MAX. The family that owns this business is so kind. My personal favorites are the juice pork dumplings, chicken potstickers, chicken chow mein, and milk bun. Literal flavortown. I think the price is definitely worth the flavor. ELAC STUDENTS ‼️ I highly recommend! It's a quiet place if you're hungry and need a break from class. Please bring cash ?
It was my first time ordering dumplings and decided to try the shrimp and sui mai. Delicious !!! Staff was very nice too :) Will come again soon and try out the other stuff in the

Bad service. I asked for condiments but they didn’t give me any. When I asked again and specified how many condiments I wanted, they just looked at me and gave me less than what I’d asked for. Food is not fresh; it’s frozen and all they do is heat it up. I will not be returning.

Got the beef pho and beef noodle soup… the beef that came with the pho was bad, the beef soup was just tasteless… trust me- pass on this place

If i could give this place 0 stars, I would. I have been here before today and the food is trash. I grew up in Alhambra and this place is not good dim sum. I came back today for an iced coffee and they wouldn't let me purchase without buying anything else!! Terrible service! I have never experienced this before and I am so disappointed in this place after giving them another chance.

Good food - fair price? Small family business so there aren't many tables available and very cozy vibes. They have the best dimsum I've ever had. Make sure to add some chili oil, vinegar & splash of soy sauce for dipping sauce (the best)I'm highly recommend Pork Xia Long Bao, Hair Gow or Siumai. Salted Egg Bun & Chili wonton are MUST!!! They have very little kitchen, also they'll cook every single dish after you ordered and gonna serve at the same time => usually 15min wait so be patient. It's worth it I promise**they accept Debit card/Cash**

I was a little disappointed with the food. I ordered the pork bun and won tons in chili oil/sauce. The bun was very stale and hard. I was hoping it to be soft and fluffy like the pictures and the wontons tasted different. They were more sour and barely spicy. I don't plan on trying again sadly
My first time trying this place and I would say the food is ok but my main gripe is paying a premium for ok food. My assumption is that inflation has a lot to do with it, but I ordered 1 wonton in chili oil and 1 spicy dan dan noodle and it was $22. The dishes were small with an underwhelming amount of filling and other ingredients. I probably won't be back because I the price isn't worth what you get and the food is not outstanding. See pic.

I went here today. I ordered the beef noodle soup.Probably the worst beef noodle soup I ever had. Here are some reasons:1. About 4 quarter size pieces of beef2. Soup had a quarter inch of oil in the bowl3. The soup was old4. Expensive for what it's worthI also threw up about an hour of eating it. I don't throw up normally, so something is off.I do not recommend this place. I recommend going across the street to McDonald's instead.

We had been coming here for many years and had enjoyed very good food. HOWEVER, in the past couple years, we have noticed a slow deterioration in the quality of food and service. We were here the first weekend in August, 2023 with friends and relatives from out of town, some of whom had eaten here years before. They were surprised at the restaurant nowadays and basically, it was a "Thumbs Down". Some reasons: 1. Many of the dishes, which SHOULD be hot, were luke-warm. This is not good, not just for taste, but the spread of germs possibly. 2. Some dishes, which should be crispy, were slightly soggy - and lukewarm. 3. Service personnel - many of them ACT as if they are doing you a favor, short with you, ignore you, or very slow in servicing you. Examples: Ask one of the cart women if they had a certain dish. Got a very rough NO and she turned away. Asked another server for some forks so we could use it as service to cut food and distribute. Was ignored and it took about 10-15 min. before he came with the forks, never acknowledged who asked for it. Some of the cart women just started putting dishes on the table w/o us asking for it. --- Aside from the restaurant itself, the building and mall - The parking is adequate, though on weekends, it could be extremely crowded (get there before 11). However, over the last few years, we have NEVER seen the parking lot escalator without parts of it being "Under Maintenance" - which means no escalator going up or down, and this weekend, no escalator service at all. To compound this constant escalator problem, the elevator was out of service, necessitating climbing stairs to go up to the restaurant on the Second Floor. We are NEVER coming back here again. SUGGESTION: Go to Lunasia Dim Sum in Alhambra, approximately 2 miles from Atlantic Seafood. Much better food and service, though prices are slightly higher, but portions bigger. We found out about it from friends and will be going there in the future.

Hands down the best dim sum I’ve ever had. We got dumplings, beef wrap, sticky rice, and fried rice. Absolutely delicious. If I could give the owners of this restaurant a Michelin star, I would.

It was our first time trying Dim Sum World and it was incredibly delicious. Our family will definitely be back again. Its a small mom and pop restaurant so the food does take at most 15 minutes to come out, but the wait is definitely worth it. We ordered our food, ate and then decided we wanted seconds so we re ordered. So good. I wont knock them a star because the food was great but just fyi they do not have highchairs for the little ones.
