Dim Sum Restaurants in Monterey Park, CA

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

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

“We enjoyed the food so much! And the portions are so generous. Everything was absolutely great, waiters are super nice and fast. Popcorn chicken was great, the beef rolls are spectacular and the mango drink is very generous and yummy. I really only have good words, this is easily the best Taiwanese restaurant in the area :)“

“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“

“The food is excellent and there is a wide variety of dishes“

“9am Monday morning, hoping for fresh choices; 2 items. Siu Mai and egg custard bun total 12.33 including tax:
Price point 9/10 good price point

Siu Mai 9/10
1 order: 4pcs; large portion, good flavor and texture, presentation not the best but the flavor is more important.

Egg custard bun 6/10
1 order: 3 pcs good portion size, flavor and texture, bun was hard , custard was too liquid.“

“This dim sum restaurant inside a hotel has an elegant, upscale feel. I enjoy the quieter atmosphere, which makes it a relaxing place to eat. The dim sum is beautifully made and delicious. The only downside is that it costs more than a typical Chinese restaurant, but I still enjoy coming here.“

“Service was accommodating but communication was difficult as only a few could understand English.
Food is good, may not be to my experience in HK restaurants.
Would come back without hesitation as I hardly cook anymore 😕“

“Wow! Meat pies from heaven in a mini- mall off N Garfield Avenue. Everything here is great. Not a sit down place as such, since it's really small and they only have a few tables, but I'm sure you could eat in if you wanted to (they have a short menu) - but it's not really a restaurant atmosphere - more of a small hole in the wall family run takeout, with Grandpa making dumplings by hand at a table when I was there. There seems to be very little English spoken here. Very delicious and authentic - I'll be back!“

“Monterey Palace Restaurant is a classic Cantonese dining spot in Monterey Park, especially popular for dim sum and large family meals. The restaurant has a big banquet-style dining room that feels lively and busy, especially during weekend brunch.

I stopped by for dim sum, and the variety was impressive. The shrimp dumplings (har gow) were fresh and delicate, while the Portuguese egg tarts were warm, flaky, and slightly sweet. I also tried the roast duck, which had crispy skin and tender, flavorful meat.

The portions are generous, making it a great place to share dishes with a group. The service can be a little fast-paced when it’s busy, but the food quality makes up for it.

Overall, Monterey Palace is a solid spot for traditional Cantonese food and dim sum in the San Gabriel Valley. If you’re looking for a classic Chinese banquet-style restaurant, it’s definitely worth a visit.“

“Quick, polite service and carts move around. Dim sum 4 plus on weekends. Eight steamers came to 50 plus tax and tip. Servers get for you what’s not in the carts yet if it’s in the kitchen. 2/person tea charge. Lobsters for 16.99 are very small though and 29.99 crab deal also not big. Duck special is alright but is worth two stamps. Place is packed on Sunday and waited about five minutes for a table.“

“The food was delicious really really good. I’ve been here a few times already and it doesn’t disappoint. It’s a small mountain pop shop and the ladies that serve the food really nice. I am not from Asia, but they make me feel like my mama is serving me food.“

“Foo, listen. When the lady taking your order has bread flour on her shirt you know it is going to be fresh.

My family loved the breakfast. House crepe comes with preserved tofu sauce. Crepe was kinda like roti. Everything handmade. Fair prices EOY 2025. 4 adult 1 kid ~60 bucks.

Wish the menu had photos for us ABCs, but you can see better pics on Yelp.“
