Cantonese Restaurants near Palo Alto, CA

“great food. good service“

“This place was such a treat and everything was so good! All of the flavors were great, savory, fresh, and satisfying. We ordered the sautéed spinach and garlic, the XLB, the Shrimp Xiu Mai, Taiwanese noodles, custard buns, and BBQ pork buns.

All dishes were great! I loved the xiu mai and my husband loved the bbq pork buns especially.“

“Decent Cantonese food, which means not spicy and maybe even a bit on the bland side. I got takeout and the restaurant is tucked in the corner of a strip mall next to a UFC gym. I knew it had to be good because it was a chaotic small hole in the wall type place packed with only Chinese people.
I really liked the beef chow fun, salt and pepper pork chop, and the Chinese broccoli with garlic. Portions were very generous as well.
I’m not sure if I’d ever dine in the restaurant but I will definitely get takeout again.“

“Great food, can be busy during dinner time. So show up early.“

“One of the Cantonese dim sum restaurant in Cupertino that captured my palate. My must visit restaurant whenever I am back in this part of the world. Not only they serve good dim sum, but also Cantonese dishes. Fried rice and chow mian are equally great too. Always loved to be speaking Cantonese with the staffs! 👍🏻“

“I had an amazing dining experience at kirin house
The food was absolutely outstanding — the seafood was incredibly fresh, the chicken was tender and flavorful, and every dish was beautifully presented. My personal favorites were the prawns and lobster, cooked to perfection and full of flavor.

The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, perfect for gatherings with family and friends. The staff were attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was just right throughout the meal.

If you’re looking for authentic flavors, generous portions, and a memorable dining experience, I highly recommend this restaurant. Definitely worth five stars!“

“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 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.“

“This chain originates in Guangdong Province and has been in existence since 1981.

Limited menu featuring traditional Cantonese healthy favorites: rice noodle rolls, porridge/congee, curative herbal soups, and steamed rice/meat.

Great place for a clean healthy meal.“

“Delicious tossed beef noodle soup with oyster abalone broth on the side. The potstickers are also delicious and doughy, served with an unusual side of clear white vinegar dipping sauce. Lots of food, affordably priced, quick & friendly service - Open late, the best part for those late nights at work. The lighting is a little bright white and harsh - helps to see the delicious food better I guess!“

“I recently went to the restaurant. I had pan fried chicken noodles and eggplant dish. The fried noodle dish was mouth watering! Crispy and full of flavors. I really enjoyed the flavors in the eggplant dish as well.

Walking into the restaurant really surprised me by their cleanliness! The whole place was spotless!! Hygienic clean. Not a dust in sight. Even the counter space was organized and clean with sanitizer. This really impressed me.

I really appreciated that the owner took time to prepare the meals. I had to wait some time as there was a large order before me but I noticed that she didn’t rush any orders even the small orders.“

“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."“

“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!“

“Fabulous food and service was fast.“
