Dim Sum Restaurants near Mountain View, CA

“This is a solid dim sum place with good food overall. Prices were fair, except for the pan fried bao with translucent skins, which were way overpriced. We enjoyed the shrimp chang fen and the Chinese broccoli. The har gow had nice chewy skins, but the filling inside was only so-so. I was not a huge fan of the sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaves because the filling was made with ground meat instead of whole pieces. The staff were efficient and friendly. We enjoyed choosing our food from the roving dim sum carts. I ordered shou mei tea, which tasted fine.“

“I would give it a 3.5/5 overall. It's a nice neighborhood spot with some solid dishes.

On my last visit, I got a couple soups and the pan fried soup dumplings.

dumplings - skippable imo. I've had crispier and soupier versions. but still tasty. 3/5
hot and sour soup with shredded pork - pretty good, especially with rice! 4.5/5
eggdrop soup with seaweed - I've never had it with seaweed before, so I'll reserve judgement on it. I probably wouldn't order it again. NA“

“Excellent food and service! Some of the most authentic Chinese noodles I ever had. I have traveled to China before and had these dishes. The food here is just as good. Further, the dishes here are regional based (Central China). That means not many Chinese restaurants have these wonderful spices/ flavors. Highly recommended!!“

“Buns we're pretty good and really affordable. My big complaint is that the bus cart they push around every 5 minutes sounds like nails on a chalk board. Makes my skin crawl its so loud. You guys should get a can of WD-40 and lube the wheels on it.“

“My mom and brother who live in the neighborhood recommended this restaurant to me and now whenever we come to visit from the right coast, we always come to here to eat or takeout. My brother eats here weekly. They have the kind of favorite dishes from our childhood and their pork-crab roe soup dumplings are the best! I also love their smashed cucumber salad. The service is also great and the servers are friendly and welcoming. We highly recommend it!“

“The food is amazing. We go there every week, but it’s not all about the food. Sandy and her staff make us feel like family. We truly appreciate them! ❤️❤️❤️“

“👍😄🔥🌸🍎好吃非常好吃😋“

“Nice ambiance and friendly People“

“They have a total of seven different kinds of gluten free dumplings (four with meat or seafood, and three vegetarian ones). Having so many gluten free dumpling options is almost unheard of. We ordered all of them and were very impressed. Tasty, generous portions and clean feeling because of the water-based cooking.“

“Spacious restaurant with yummy authentic dim sum with extra oomph. The fish cheung fun with cilantro was superb, as were the seafood dumplings and soup dumplings. The char shiu puff pastry buttery and super light. The fried fish was delightful and the fried pumpkin with salted egg yolk original. The kai lan with oyster sauce cooked just right. Service was gracious and quick. Highly reccomend!“

“Have been enjoying this dim sum gem for several years now when visiting family in the Bay Area, and it is unquestionably the most delicious I have had the privilege of encountering. I say this having grown up in Flushing, Queens and living in both Mainland China (and Hong Kong) for over twenty years since. I have been eating dim sum weekly for probably 45 years or more. I have been to Michelin rated dim sum restaurants and the most famous/notable eateries in both NYC and San Francisco. Pearl Bay is hands down my favorite. It has a really extensive choice of dishes. The food is fresh and uses some really high quality ingredients. My only (small) criticism is the quality of the hot sauce, which I prefer mixed with red bean paste rather than sriracha. But next time I may bring my own. This place is perfect for large parties. You can make reservations too, so why are you waiting?! And the staff are lovely, both friendly, quick and accommodating. Will gladly look forward to returning at some point in the future. Thank you (again) Pearl Bay!“

“Love this place. Have loved Dim Sum for many years. Now I have my go to place.“

“Update:
Jianbao is still delicious. I’ll probably skip the hot and sour soup next time. It’s tasty but too much for one person. Also, there’s a lot of soup and I don’t think it’s worth the money. OK if you’re sharing.

Tasty and juicy jianbao. Bottom was nice and crispy.“

“Fabulous food and service was fast.“

“We came here from Florida and wanted to try something unique. The food here is delicious. This picture is all we have left from 3 containers. We are full and very satisfied with the food. And the staff was very friendly. I would definitely recommend this to travelers and locals alike.“

“I recommend EVERYTHING! Everything that I have tried is delicious!“

“The service sucks, if you're not speaking the same language, good luck getting taken care of in a timely manner. I guess when it's the same day in and day out, you're just fed up with customers 😒
The food is still great, been going here since they opened. The prices in the last few months have jumped drastically, and its $15 for a combo box, I remember when it was $8.
I still remember that you could also sit and eat inside before Covid.
The portions of the dim sum, are huge, and packed full with shrimp, pork or whatever you choose.
Overall, I'm still going back here, as the food is fantastic 😋“

“We went there on Christmas Eve to have a family dinner. We ordered the family dinner set for over $400 package. It was delicious ! A lot of food and also have left over to take home ! The service was excellent. I also celebrate my birthday there. We had an amazing time.“

“Delicious dumplings! Love the steamed pork soup dumplings or pan fried soup dumplings. Do not miss out on the egg fried rice, super light and fluffy. Orange chicken is also good. Egg custard buns for desert and you’re set! The price is also very reasonable and large portions. Perfect hole in the wall dim sum spot!“

“We’ve been coming here for over a decade, and the quality has been consistently outstanding. Truly authentic Cantonese cuisine, with a warm vibe that works equally well for small dinners or large group gatherings. It’s easy to book, the staff are super accommodating, and they don’t just serve food, they tailor dishes exactly to your requests. Reliable, delicious, and welcoming every time. Highly recommended.“

“So good! my family and I shared a couple items. soup, cucumber salad, chicken sandwich and 2 types of dumplings. Everything was amazing! I'll definitely be back!“

“We've been here twice, once for lunch and once for dinner, and have been very impressed with the food on both occasions. They offer dim sum exclusively during lunch, while dinner features a menu of classic Cantonese dishes.

The quality really shines through – you can tell they use fresh ingredients, and everything is well-seasoned and expertly cooked. A standout from our dinner was the steamed live red grouper; it was cooked to perfection and incredibly tender. During our lunch visit, the beef organ stew was a highlight – the organs were clearly fresh and stewed to a wonderful softness.

The staff members are friendly and welcoming. However, it's worth noting that they seem quite understaffed during peak lunch times, so while the service is friendly, it might not be the speediest. Just set your expectations accordingly.

The decor definitely has a nostalgic 2000s Hong Kong feel. A modern refresh would certainly elevate the dining experience.

Overall, the excellent food is the main draw here, and it's more than enough reason for us to return many times.“

“We had a dinner at the restaurant to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Ping Pong Diplomacy. Dynasty Seafood is an amazing top shelf experience. Elegant surroundings, gourmet chinese food, great service. Some of my favorite dishes: cold platter with roast pork, char siu and jellyfish, abalone with bok choy, succulent smoked duck, and lobster noodles. If you are planning a dinner to celebrate a special ocassion, this is the restaurant“

“一家以粤菜为主的中餐馆，咕咾肉，干烧明虾，叉烧烤肉味道都很不错“

“My wife Rae and I love Dumpling Time — it’s our favorite spot for Saturday lunch. The food never disappoints, and Cedrick always goes above and beyond to take care of us. Amazing service, great vibes, and a place we’ll keep coming back to.“

“I was searching for a dim sum place and this restaurant’s name came up with decent reviews. I went there but found out that they no longer serve dim sum, only the regular Chinese food menu. We ended up ordered congee and lobster noodles and those were quite good.“

“Here's the review with the added information:
"Great take out place for roasted duck and pork. My fav is duck roasted plate which came with rice and steamed cabbage. Loved the duck flavor. It's in the lions supermarket complex, just outside the supermarket. Not recommended for dining-in. It's a quick grab the food and take away."“

“The Dim Sum brunch js always delicious. Come early to guarantee a seat for larger parties of 6 or more. They are friendly and very accommodating. I also enjoy their dinner menu. I also recommend this restaurant for banquet style dinners and special occasions.“

“The dumplings helped me out of Home sick and feels better“
