“We went there for Thanksgiving for the first time. As a vegetarian, I can say I had many options, and what I chose was outstanding. My wife and daughter enjoyed their fish and meat dishes and I can honestly say there wasn’t one dish that wasn’t outstanding. I heartily recommend this place and I’m considering going back for Christmas if they’re open.“

“Food, service and prices were OK, you can relax with friends over lunch or dinner and not feel like you needed to pay and get out right after meal. There's always tables available (because the place is large) and no need to take a number and wait. Atmosphere is top notch with high ceiling and feel like you step in a 5 star place.“

“May 2026:
I used to work in Foster City twenty years ago. Used to come here often for lunch.

Came here on a Sunday and had a very good lunch. Tomato beef chow mein was excellent. Singaporean noodles were also delicious 😋.

Would definitely come back again.“

“Had a delicious lunch with 1 family member & his visiting friend today. We all enjoyed the dishes that the only photos I took were desserts consisting of the classic sesame balls (bigger than anywhere else I’ve eaten) & the black sesame mochi in peanut crumble (only place I’ve seen).

The portion is generous on the mentioned desserts above & the mushrooms dumplings.

The only thing I dislike in Chinese restaurants in general is the WHITE RICE that I mistakenly ordered 2 bowls which I should have refused.

Japanese white rice still reigns supreme in my book.

A few attentive waiters served our table which I preferred, vs 1 designated server, which means we could call on any available waiter for assistance.

We could only ordered so much for 3 diners, so there are more reasons to go back to enjoy other dishes.

Prices are on the higher side due to @ the DT location.

PS — Parking in residential streets a few blocks away, for 2 hours at-a-time… Doesn’t DT want people to stay longer?“

“Found this little gem while on a layover at SFO and the food was amazing! I had the Curry Sliced Beef Ramen and it was probably the best I’ve had. The ordering technology threw me off but I got over it quickly, it is 2025. As far as atmosphere…..just a bunch of people quietly eating lunch. I only gave the service 2 stars because it is an online order and someone just deeply it off at the table. Would definitely recommend though.“

“Food is delicious dim sum, we were lucky to have a table in a private room cuz we had 17 people. It was only one woman wait staff to help us with food, it was not much service after they brought in the food and she really left us alone and we need more tea but no service until when we ready to leave then give us tea. That's really bad to me no tea for a long time and only refilling once! She must be so busy and we go outside help ourselves for finding boxes for leftover food. Be good to have good service with a smile too?“

“Fresh authentic Cantonese food. Always come back to here when we crave BBQ pork, porridge, traditional Cantonese rice dishes. Affordable, but that would mean service would take some time. I would call at least 45 minutes in advance to order takeout because it can get busy sometimes. They have fresh fish on the menu even, and weekday specials like pineapple buns.
Great spot for gluten free and dairy free options with all the porridge and rice dishes.“
