“This is a small independent shop that only does take out. Nothing fancy.
I came on a Sunday and the parking was packed. There are other shops and a supermarket as well. People do park and go rather quickly, though.
If you spend more than $20, you won't be charged a $1 fee. They only accept mastercard and visa; otherwise, pay cash.
Dim sum items are typically under $5. They sell other items/dishes for more and also specialty drinks.
I ordered $58 worth of dim sum and tried some in the car. I was happy with my order.
If you like cheap and decent dim sum, this place is it. Customers seem to love this place. There was a long line when I was here, and they kept refilling the food trays quickly.“

“Longo Seafood serves up some tasty dim sum with solid flavors and good value. The Pork Offal Congee was a standout—rich, flavorful, and very affordable, which my parents really enjoyed. The Pork and Century Egg Congee was also good, though the portion was noticeably smaller. The Roast Pork was a highlight, with incredibly crispy skin that added the perfect crunch.
Overall, the food was delicious, though portion sizes varied. A great spot for dim sum, and we’ll definitely be back!“

“This is the first time I have dined at this restaurant. It was iHealth company dinner banquet in a separate reserved room. The food was fairly good overall, with jumbo walnut shrimp being my favorite dish! I also liked the sliced fish with vegetables and lobster with noodles dishes. I thought the Peking duck and sweet sour pork ribs were just average ...The atmosphere is festive, private party rooms are great, service is above average! I would have another company party here again!“

“I attended a banquet here and the food is amazing. The roast young pig, lobster seafood salad, and the steamed fish were as good as I ever had and I had tasted some great ones. The service was excellent. I really enjoyed this place and would come back in a heart beat.“

“Hands down one of the best dim sum restaurants I’ve ever been to. Just took out an order for our road trip and we were blown away. Everything is incredibly fresh and beautifully made. Flavors are so vibrant and delicious. I can’t recommend this place enough!!
The steamed shrimp dumplings, shrimp shumai, and egg tarts were our favorites!“
“Auntie Qiu Kitchen’s Pork XLB definitely hit the spot for my partner and me when we had cravings for XLB in Alhambra, didn’t get to try their crab and pork XLB but we'll have to come back to try it out! I definitely recommend the fried pork chop sticky rice cake, it’s super crispy, savory and the glaze on the pounded crispy rice cake is a great compliment. The server was nice and attentive and the food came out extremely fast!“

“Super awesome to see more Asian food in South El Monte. South El Monte is blooming and growing center for Asian and AAPI businesses since the community has affordable real estate, accessibility, and world class high school education that can promote students going to Stanford, Harvard, MIT Engineering programs. Since Asian parents love seeing their children reach Ivy League levels and programs, there have been so many businesses starting up from boba stores to dim sum and I hope in the future, Korean Fried Chicken and more. I enjoy having a spot in the community that I can go to and enjoy dim sum options as Hong Kong (HK) style egg tarts and more. There is also a new Vietnamese and Thai restaurant in the community that took over some old failing businesses in the region. The high school boasts having Japanese and Mandarin Chinese language education which is an interest and incentive for people and nearby Asian households to move over to South El Monte.“

“For the longest time, this was a very bad Bánh Mì Chè Cali that my friends used to love frequenting. 🙄 I hate my friends for having dragged me every time they were in town. That's why I'm SO ELATED with joy that this place has taken over! It's probably one of the cheaper dim sum options in town, and that's all they specialize in! Not a lot of seats for you to sit, but you get the idea: Take it home, and enjoy it in a familiar environment!
(。◕‿◕。) Ah...!
Are there better quality options? Maybe, but for the price and convenience, don't count these guys out!“

“A nice dim sum place in San Gabriel. Their menu is pretty similar to “yin cha” places (aka Cantonese dim sum lunch) but much more compact and cheaper that those places with dim sum trolleys. This is perfect for me because the dim sum was delicious and I didn’t like busy places. Their porridge is very good and large portion. The egg tarts are very good. Dim sum was very good overall. It's not like a unique, must-try thing, just simply delicious comfort food I'd enjoy everyday.“

“I've passed by this place many times. Sometimes there's limes of people. Always wanted to try their char siu bao. They have both steamed and baked types. I bought both types. I usually like the baked type more. But here both were good but I preferred the steamed ones more.“

“Went on a Tuesday afternoon for a table of two. Service was great and attentive. Dishes came out fresh & hot, even the desserts.
Items ordered:
1. Snow cap bbq pork bun - this was the best thing we ate.
2. Cucumbers - cold, refreshing and a good flavor of black vinegar and garlic. We ordered two of these.
3. Chicken feet - meaty and good flavor, on the sweeter versus savory side though
4. Black bean spare ribs - not seasoned enough and pretty bland, would skip this
5. Shrimp rolls - honestly the worst one I ever tried. Absolutely no flavor in the filling. Recommend skipping to have room for other dishes.
6. Wagyu beef rolls - just a tad better than the shrimp rolls but would also skip
7. Taro cakes - took a while to come out but was super fresh and hot. Not bad but definitely a large order for just two.
8. Ha Gow - average, wished the mustard sauce was better, a bit watery and tasted different than what I am use to
9. Siu mai- average to good
10. Lava buns- came out warm but could be hotter, not too sweet and salty.
11. Egg tarts - average to good
12. Chicken wings with salt seasoning - tasty and came out super hot.
Overall, would come back maybe ideally with 3 people. Would skip most of the dim sum items and try the more lunch items. Dessert items here are executed pretty well. For $20 definitely easy to get moneys worth!“

“If you love the a la carte dim-sum to-go that you can get in downtown LA's Chinatown but don't want to drive that far and have to pay for parking and deal with the traffic then this is a great compromise. A little more expensive than the options you'll find in Chinatown but I save so much more time and money going here coming from Pomona that this is my new go-to for dim-sum in a pinch.“

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

“Everything we had here was fantastic! I loved the mango iced tea because it actually tastes like mangos, the chicken was nice and crunchy on the outside, juice and delicious on the inside. We also had xiao baos and their dry noodles with peanut butter sauce which were both fantastic! I would recommend against getting their devils hot sauce unless you have like an amazing spice tolerance! I thought my spice tolerance was fine because i can handle tapatio and valentina easily but this sauce left me chugging my drink and feeling the chili under my tongue for hours!“

“The Angus Stewed Beef Rice Bowl is hands‑down my favorite—I’ve had it plenty of times, and it never disappoints.
The beef is fall‑apart tender, richly braised so each bite melts in your mouth and soaks into the perfectly steamed rice below.
How Mr. Mason achieves that silky‑soft texture is beyond me, but I’m so grateful he does.
If you’re looking for a hearty, flavor‑packed meal that keeps you coming back, this is the one.
Don’t miss it!“

“This restaurant was a go to place for my mom in the early morning cuz it opened at 8 am. The dim sums was decent but it lacked varieties so choices were limited. Almost all dim sums costed $5.28 per dish except few bbq n special items.
Parking: During weekend around lunch time, it was difficult to find parking nearby the restaurant.“

“3 of us came here for lunch today. They took over the location from Din Tai Fung. It took a few minutes before someone greeted and seated us. We ordered:
- shrimp wonton w/ house spicy sauce (best, compared to DTF and Lunasia)
- shrimp & pork dumpling w/ black truffle (Lunasia is still best)
- squid in scallop dumpling w/ XO sauce (good)
- French baked BBQ pork bun (the buns too doughy, prefer the one at Tim Ho Wan)
- eggplant stuffed w/ shrimp paste (pretty good)
- deep fried pork dumpling (meh)
- deep fried durian pastry (excellent, real durian pulp, not processed, not too sweet, a bit greasy)“

“We had an incredible dining experience at Dan Chinese, and a huge part of that was thanks to Eric! From the moment we were seated, Eric went above and beyond with his hospitality and customer service. The dishes were great and were tailored to our taste profile.
Highly recommend visiting Dan Chinese — and if you’re lucky enough to be served by Eric, you’re in for a treat!“

“We had a lovely dinner that comprised of stir fried garlic Lobster with noodles, crab fish maw soup, fresh steamed giant shrimp, fresh steamed cod, cubed beef, scallop, egg fried rice, and pea shoots. They had a special on the lobster so pricing was very reasonable. We have been here multiple times for dinner and will continue to come.“
