“This place is hopping, even on weekdays! I’m so glad to see a business doing well in this spot by the San Lorenzo post office. Of course, I had to try chang fen! I opted for the BBQ pork and dried shrimp combo for the filling, and I added scallions for a small upcharge. Most of the dishes offer several modification options. I was slightly worried that the dried shrimp flavor would be overwhelming, but it dissolved well into the soy-based sauce. The barbecue flavor was sweet but slightly smoky. I appreciated the vegetal zing the scallions brought to the dish. Do add some of the mild, yet lively, vinegar sauce on the table. The chile sauce also deserves a shout-out.
Great steamed walnut buns, and I also enjoyed the Liwan congee, but I think the simpler chicken or beef is what I'll opt for next time.“

“I think I been there before and I actually stop by this month. The location is somewhat interesting ( away from freeway and next to residential / business area). The area plenty of parking and it is next to a supermarket.
Just a side note that they do take one hour lunch break I think it’s from 2-3 pm something like that. The time I went was after their lunch break and there are too many things to choose from. The order was quick and waiting for the food order take a bit time.
Overall the food is good and portion is decent. I don’t live near there so for me it’s just trying once in a while when I will be around that area.“

“A wonderful pasty store I found accidentally. I got chicken dumplings and beef and onions stuffed pancakes from the frozen section to make at home. They also have ready made food you can enjoy immediately.
If you have any questions, don’t be afraid to ask. The place is very friendly.“

“I've been going here for a number of years. Even before the pandemic. The food has been consistently good, with the exception of the height of the pandemic.
On other platforms, this place isn't rated high however this place for dim sum is always packed. This says wonders about the other sites.
Today's visit for dim sum was just like the other times. Place was packed and there was a wait of 20 mins. The service was okay and the food was good. Parking wasn't an issue as there were plenty.
This is a go-to spot for dim sum for sure.“

“The food is quite authentic. I've went there multiple times and the dishes are very consistent. Decent taste, not too much flavor. Just right. Price is relatively affordable too if you are eating with multiple people. I would recommend this place to others.“

“Came here around 10pm. We were hungry and this place just opened and was open late so it was perfect!
The food was DELICIOUS. We got a few dumpling plates and each of us got a soup. I got the sweet and sour soup and it was so good 10/10.
I ended up coming again for the second time the same week and got the black truffle dumplings and brisket soup and it was also really good 10/10. This place has become my new food spot“

“2nd time. Last time was before COVID
We ha rice and braised beef. Very tender beef. We wolfed through it before* remembered to take a pic of the large mound of rice, beef, and bok choy on the sides. The fresh cucumber salad was crunchy and had a nice garlic dressing.
Also got the lamb and pumpkin dumplings as well as an order of the chi and cabbage dumplings. All pretty good.“

“It’s my first visit here. I loved the rice casserole and the fried pork ribs. The rice casserole was very authentic and delicious, just like the best ones I had in China.
The place was clean and the service was great. The manager answered my questions and when she saw there’s oil on my hands, she got me a paper napkin before I asked. I was very grateful!“

“Some of the best “mom and pop” dim sum and Chinese bbq I’ve had in the bay. Everything came in gigantic portions and was amazing. The value was there. We were able to spread out a single meal of about $30 into 3-4 different meals.
What we ordered:
- roast pork and duck bbq with fried rice
- (2) shumai
- (1) crazy shrimp (baseball sized shrimp balls)
- (1) shrimp rice roll.“

“Love it here. The egg custard bun is TO DIE FOR. It's big and filled to the brim with custard, it's the best bang for your buck. Not only that but the siu mai, ha khaw, and the turnip cakes are a little bigger than what I get normally so it's a great deal. Staff is friendly, I'm a English speaker so it's fairly easy to order. They do except cash or Zelle and those payment types a simple to execute. 10/10 recommend 🤌🏽“

“3.5 stars
We came here before 11am shortly after opening on a Sunday and there was no wait. We decided to try their entrees and skipped the dimsum.
The salted fish chicken eggplant claypot took a long time to come, it came at the end and the eggplants were burnt on the bottom and the skin was tough to chew. It was also submerged in a lot of oil but tastewise it was okay.
The satay beef chow fun was good, it was actually runny and not too salty. The pineapple was a nice touch, we just weren't a big fan of the red bellpeppers.
Japanese style beef cubes with fried silken tofu was really good, the sauce is slightly sweet and savory and not too salty. We really liked this one.
All 3 dishes were in the low $20s, and more than enough for 3 people. We had leftovers to go.
There is free dessert! Choice is mango pudding or grass jelly.“

This little shop is great. Food is fresh, delicious, and plentiful. do Kinda wish they had a lunch-box meal where it's a half portion of their rice meal with a drink (I feel like I need a nap)“
