Dim Sum Restaurants near Pleasanton, CA

“traditional Chinese congeee“

“We noticed the restaurant was very busy with lots of customers, so we decided to give it a try. The steamed soup dumpling was authentic and flavorful, with a delicious broth inside. We also ordered the Spicy Lamb Mixed Noodles, which were tasty and packed with flavor“

“This is a smaller-scale Chinese restaurant, but the food quality is excellent! We ordered a variety of dishes, all of which were truly delicious. My favorites include the Sichuan-style sliced beef, stir-fried eggplant and beans, spicy wontons, and clay pot rice with salted pork and vegetables. Parking is convenient, and the prices are very reasonable. I will definitely come back again!“

“I went there in a Sunday morning to pick up a couple of Dim Sums, preserved egg & pork congee and pan fried turlip/radish cakes, to go. There were plenty of parking spaces. There were 8 or 9 tables inside and the plenty of tables outside. The lady behind the counter was very friendly. The food was steaming hot when I arrived at my destination. Very tasty as well!“

“Great food. Found this while on a work trip. Pork buns are amazing custard buns has to be one of the most amazing desserts I’ve ever eaten. WOW!!“

“This cozy breakfast spot specializes in Shanghainese comforts. Service is brisk and no-nonsense. We ordered a few staples — wontons, noodle soups and xiaolongbao — all of them competent and satisfying.

The pork kidney noodle soup is a rarity in the United States, though here the kidney is cut thick and left unstir-fried, so it contributes less flavor to the broth than it could. It is better treated almost as a side than as an integral part of the soup. The xiaolongbao are tasty, if more rustic in appearance than the finely pleated versions served at more polished places like Din Tai Fung.

Still, this is an honest, unfussy restaurant well worth returning to.“

“A refined Cantonese progression begins with delicate roasted squab and crisp gai lan, simply blanched to preserve its natural sweetness. Next come a golden bean-curd skin roll layered with vibrant vegetables, followed by an elegant shrimp and scallop roll showcasing the clean sweetness of the sea. The meal concludes on a bright, refreshing note with mango pomelo sago — silky, tropical, and beautifully balanced.Hahhaha！“

“This is my second time there and the food is authentic and super tasty yet again. They serve Dim Sum even for dinner which is a bonus. Their crab meat fish maw soup is a must and being a seafood lover - their seafood dim sum dishes hits close to home. Their manager is very accommodating and ensures all guests are well taken care of.“

“We attended a graduation celebration dinner at Pearl Bay Manor, and overall it was a nice experience. The restaurant is spacious and well-lit, making it a great venue for big gatherings and special occasions.

Our host pre-ordered the food, so everything was served promptly without much waiting. The presentation of every dish was impressive, and you could tell care was taken in how the food was prepared. Overall, the dishes tasted good, although we found most of them to be a bit saltier than we prefer. If you enjoy well-seasoned or saltier food, this restaurant will probably be a great fit for you.

The only disappointment was the steamed cake we ordered after being seated. We have to remind a few servers that we have a missing order and it didn’t arrive until everyone had already finished eating and we were getting ready to leave, so we weren’t able to enjoy it with the meal.

Despite that, Pearl Bay Manor is a good choice for large celebrations because of its spacious dining area, attractive food presentation, and variety of available dishes to order.“

“Whole in the wall with very tasteful and authentic dimsum and more, our go to place. Very affordable prices and variety of selections. Chef’s little girl is so cute, and already very good customer service attentiveness at a young age. Highly recommended to try this place out!“

“Very good food and very nice waitress and waiters👍👍👍“

“This is an absolutely wonderful place. I eat here for lunch and dinner. I’ve been coming for years and I absolutely love everything that I’ve ever eaten here from the green beans to the cabbage to the fish chicken. I don’t order Thanksgiving turkey from here was fantastic. This is a wonderful wonderful place.“

“Not sure how this is less than 4 stars considering it holds its own weight in an area with many other great restaurants. It's a traditional Cantonese seafood restaurant with the craziest selection of crabs, lobsters, and fish. We've celebrated family events with their set menus which were phenomenally authentic and delicious, and gotten takeout for regular dinners which arrived perfectly cooked still.

Service is extremely attentive (although don't expect warm fuzzy pleasantries if it's busy) and they've often gifted us dessert which was very kind of them.

Definitely a local gem.“

“Very good food and very nice waitress and waiters👍👍👍“

“Great BBQ ducks. The staff is friendly, but busy. The deli is always a line, so don't expect restaurant level service, it's all fast food plastic forks and spoons. But it is tasty and very generous portion and filling.

Aside from the duck, Lo Mai Gai (Dim Sum Sticky Rice Chicken) had been my favorite .“

“Always good. I come here to eat whenever I'm in the area. Best canto food and in a clean and nice location with plenty of parking. Is located in the parking lot of a business area, which I find kind of weird but totally awesome for the fact that it's easily accessible.

This place also serves dim sum thoughout the day, which is a total plus in my opinion because most places don't serve them some past 2:00 p.m.

The dim sum is actually pretty legit and traditional. You can get pretty busy during lunch time, but it moves pretty quickly.“
