Dim Sum Restaurants near San Mateo, CA

“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.“

“The food was authentic, very affordable prices compared to other dim sum spots in San Mateo. I arrived at 12pm and there were plenty of seats, but the place quickly filled up afterward. There are two menus. I don't know why. I would grab both because some things I usually get are in the other menu.“

“Vegetable fried dumplings, soy sauce noodles, and green onion pancakes were all incredibly good. Staff was supremely helpful, kind, and personable. Highly recommend!“

“Authentic Hong Kong style Chinese food with high quality food.
The quality of the food here is a highlight. All that is familiar with Hong Kong style Chinese will agree.
Everything we have ever ordered had always been up to our standard and we have had Chinese food all our lives.
The food is not too oily, not too sweet, not too salty. All the flavors are very balanced.
The HK milk tea is was made in a traditional and authentic way. The bitterness and sweetness is well balanced.
I highly recommend this place!“

“Best first time experience ever!!! Had a group of 5 and we called in advance and they were so accommodating. Food was delicious and service was fast. We met the owner/chef and he was so kind to us. Highly recommend and we will definitely be coming back!“

“Eats lot of good food and come out fast“

“Beautiful dinning room, food was only so so. It was expensive, but that’s everywhere nowadays.“

“So far I get takeout here as the seating is limited. Their food is delicious and I like the takeout because they use the paperboard containers and a sturdy paper bag. Hot food in plastic is harmful. Their portions and prices are fair and the sesame balls are amazing.“

“Support small businesses!

Where you can find quality handcrafted food. I loved everything I’d ordered. From dim sum, milk tea, white sauce, marinated pork ribs and chicken feet, baked egg custard, to specialty traditional Hong Konger soup of the day!
I cannot express enough how grateful I am to have experience this taste again, I left HK back in 2006. This place tasted like home, my childhood, I wonder if they are from Kwun Tong too!

Thank you Hongry Kong for delivering amazing memories to me. I had already placed my second order. Spread the word out, hope you continues with success!“

“Great place to eat dim sum“

“This was one of the best meals I’ve had in a while. I ordered a green union pancake and it was incredible. Pork&shrimp dumplings were the best and beef chow fun was really good. I’d definitely recommend this to anyone looking for chinese food.“

“Excellent HK style Cafe food. Rare to find this kind of attention and preparation these days. Best Baked Pork Chop over Rice in the SF Bay Area!“

“I haven't eat here for quite a while. The dimsum is good compared to alot of other nearby Chinese restaurants. It's not busy at all so food come out super fast. Service is great. Waitress keep checking on us every 15 min. Overall I'm happy with the visit and recommend eating here.“

“I really loved eating their delicious food and desserts“

Food is good. We made a reservation. Suckling pig is discounted atm.

“Yan Peninsula, a renowned Chinese restaurant, stands out for its exceptional quality service, captivating atmosphere, and delectable cuisine. The restaurant’s beautifully crafted ambiance enhances the dining experience.
The Chicken Feet with Black Bean Sauce serve as an ideal appetizer, offering a harmonious blend of textures and delectable flavors. The Spear Ribs with Black Bean Sauce are distinguished by their optimal seasoning, avoiding excessive saltiness. The Shrimp Dumplings are a true culinary delight, characterized by their thin and flavorful wrapper, bursting with shrimp goodness. Despite its unconventional appearance, the Siu Mai with Shrimp Roe is surprisingly flavorful and enjoyable. While the Beef Rice Noodle Rolls are delectable, the overall experience at Yan Peninsula is truly exceptional.“

“We’ve been heading over to The Night Market for the past few years! The classics are all good, Hainan Chicken, Beef Chow Fun, minced Beef over rice. But if you want to try something unique to The Night Market try the Longan Crispy Pork over rice. I can’t imagine a dish that so uniquely represents the Asian American experience. Finish it off with a mango Sago!“

“One of the best dim sum place on the peninsula. And also has a great view of the plane take off and landing.
Their lunch dimsum is very crowded so either go there early before 11:00 or after 1:00 p.m.

Since they remove the outdoor dining, they now direct overflow to the next door hotpot place, which also serve dim sums during lunch hour.

They also have good dinner banquet menu that are reasonably priced, especially there holiday dinner banquet menu.
But I always prefer banquet menus that are Tailor to our favorite dishes. Yes it will be more expensive than their set menu but at least all the dishes we will enjoy.“

“First time visit. This place used to be China village restaurant. It serves dimsum and hongkong style dishes. It has live seafood. I heard the chef is from Pallette tea and garden. When we arrived it was not busy but later in the night the restaurant is almost full. Overall, the food is yummy. The beef is a bit salty. Service wise, they might need to do better as if you go to another sizable hongkong seafood restaurant , someone will greet you and serve right a way. We will try the dimsum next time.“
