Cantonese Restaurants in San Gabriel, CA

“do not let the casual exterior of this building fool you - they're serious about food here. came on a Saturday night and it was packed, but they managed to seat us almost immediately! win. we ordered their lobster supreme, roasted duck, and some scrambled eggs with shrimp. rice and soup came with the meal. the lobster? fresh. delicious. chopped for easy eating ( true lobster monsters know how difficult it can be to eat this crustacean when it is improperly prepared! ) duck? delicious and toasty and very flavorful. and the scrambled egg and shrimp is a good, not too salty, meal balancer. very fluffy and soft. the tea they served was also brewed very well, very fragrant and none of the burnt taste. 10/10 would visit again and maybe try some of the other special meals (I gotta come back for the garlic crab)

edit: they have a complimentary little mango pudding for us 🥹“

“Great place to have breakfast - the amount of food for the price seems unbeatable! We went on a Tuesday, and there was plenty of seating. My group of four got Breakfast Specials A (with Beef Congee, Dark Soy Sauce Chow Mein, and Steamed Rice Noodle w/ House Special Sauce) and Breakfast Specials D with Beef Brisket Rice Noodle Roll. We had leftovers to take home.

My group really enjoyed the Steamed Rice Noodle w/ House Special Sauce. They wished the rice noodle roll would be able to absorb the beef sauce better. I enjoyed the beef congee - it's nothing special but it hits my comfort food zone.
I like how we add our own condense milk for HK Milk Tea to adjust to desired sweetness level.“

“This wonton is probably the best in the Los Angeles area. It tastes really good, but the pork inside is too rough and there are chunks of fat that haven't been shredded. The shrimps are very green, and there are three or four shrimps.
The dry-fried beef he made has a first-class taste, and the pot is strong, but the beef is not very tender without the pulp. Highly recommended place to try.“

“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!“

“Great service, they even give away 8 inches free 🎂 too“

“We've never done take out here, but literally everything on the dine-in menu is fabulous and cooked perfectly--especially the pipa duck, when they have it. Roast duck is also great. Soy sauce chicken can't be beat anywhere in LA.

Apparently, they'll make anything you want if you call ahead. Lots of big parties on weekend evenings.

Highly recommended.“

“Service and atmosphere are great. Experience varies with the food you ordered. Last time we came we got lamb stew and crispy egg tofu and mushroom stir fry, they were amazing! Highly recommend. This time we got steamed cod and egg/shrimp chow fun, the cod tastes bland and like rubber. Do not recommend. Shrimp was pretty tender, tastes good.“

“Awesome tea remedies perfect cooling for the hot summer!!“

“Such an amazing dining experience! The atmosphere feels like a lively street food market, and every dish we ordered was top-notch. The grilled chicken wings were perfectly crispy, and the pickled chili fish soup was bursting with flavor. Will definitely be coming back with friends!“

“Great place for Chinese food, cheap and large portions. They have a great lunch menu that is from $9.95 (comes with rice, soup and choice of entree). They are famous for their roasted meats (such as duck, pork). They have a vegetarian selection (vegetables, noodles), but some dish they it says vegetables there appears to be meat stock. Plenty of seating and the staff doesn't bother you while eating, come when you call them.

Vegetarian options: Check to make sure they do not use meat stock in fried veges etc.“

“A pretty solid institution overall! Not exactly sure why there are so many negative reviews. the congee was very tasty (I got the pork rib, congee with clams and razor clams added), did not contain much MSG, which I'm usually pretty sensitive to. not over salted, was great, warming, and healthful meal to have especially when I was recovering from being sick.

The only drawback that I have is that the conjuring was a little watery from my standpoint, would've liked 25 to 30% more rice. However, this may purely be stylistic.

I didn't get the fresh seafood added, but would definitely bring my parents here next time to try it out. A solid institution and I would definitely come back!“

“Seriously, everything is great. Especially loved the fried rice with salty egg yolk, taro and olives; special chicken w/ red scallion in wood pot; French style of filet mignon with red rice. I just had to visit here whenever I come back to LA. Great food. ? ?“
