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.“

“Delicious food, and great value. Some areas for improvement: the music is way too loud and really random (recent pop music mixed with 1960’s old music), and the service is slow because only 1 woman is waitressing all the food tables plus working the kitchen and handling final payments, while the other person is useless and does nothing. Please lower the music.“

“More of a restaurant for individual meals than for family style. Prices are quite high for some more simple dishes like $20 for string beans is a little steep. I also found it weird that their Dandan noodles were hot.

Their bento boxes and beef noodle soup look good though, and I'll definitely try those in the future.“

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

“I ordered take out from the website but the restaurant didn’t get the order. They were able to make to food with 20 minutes. The food was pretty good. The salty fish chicken fried rice was good quality. Portion is just right. The restaurant was quite empty, I think they need to do more promotions to attract new customers. I would definitely order takeout from them again and hope the quality will stay consistent.“

“My favorite style of food growing up is Hong Kong cafe style, so to have Inshou close to home is a treat! A regular order is the baked spaghetti bolognese and brick toast (with condensed milk and peanut butter). Topping it off with a HK milk tea makes it perfect! The staff are super friendly and they remember us, and we’ve hardly ever had to wait for a table. Service is fast as well.“

“From the super nice lady that took my order over the phone, to the friendly person at the register, I was impressed by the amazing service.

The food was tasty and fresh- especially all the veggies in our curry and garlic chicken - big pieces of fresh broccoli, carrot, and cabbage. The yellow curry was my favorite. I think I will ask for extra garlic on the garlic chicken next time- I love a lot of garlic.

Can’t wait to return to this hidden gem.“

“Delicious vegan options include the Scallion Oil Noodles, and the Chongqing Noodles (super spicy, but you can dilute the broth with water and it will stil be the most delicious soup you'll ever have, though it could use extra veggies), the Mapo Tofu Steamed Dumplings are divine, rhe scallion pancakes are flakey and yummy (though a bit oily), and the cucumber salad is refreshing.“

“Eats lot of good food and come out fast“

“👍😄🔥🌸🍎好吃非常好吃😋“

“What delicious food! The service was quick and options were authentic and delicious. We loved their hot and sour soup and the pan fried soup dumplings. We got sesame balls for dessert on the house. We even left with more food than originally ordered and some extra good fortune!“

“This place is popular, and understandably so. Menu is limited so they can focus on what they do well. Wontons are great, and the choice of noodle is a plus although we all went for the classic thin egg noodle. Liked seeing stuffed bittermelon on the menu (and eating it too).“

“Great place to eat dim sum“

“This is a takeout spot located in a business park, so it can be hard to find. However, their dim sum is pretty good and it's definitely a good value for how much you get. Our favorites are the pork buns and siu mai. The hao gar are pretty good, too. The bean curd is a little hit or miss, but they're packed full of filling. Pickup process is interesting as you ring a doorbell and someone will come bring out your order. They can be flexible with pickup times, though it depends on how many orders they have to fill. Parking can be a pain, but on weekdays it's not much trouble finding a spot along the street.“

“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!“

“My family and relatives came to this restaurant. Because we were a big group, we made a RSVP ahead of time and glad we did as this place gets packed quick! The dim sum was great, and the staff was friendly and responsive. I wouldn't mind coming back here in the future.“

“點心新鮮熱辣👍👍👍 小菜價錢大衆化👍👍出品普遍色、香、味齊😋😋😋“

“Great consistently tasty food. Good selection of both seafood and non seafood items. My family loves celebrating birthdays here.“

“I really loved eating their delicious food and desserts“

“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!“

“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.“

“Nice place“

“A Peninsula standby for Cantonese roast meats and dim sum in Belmont. The barbecue pork and roast duck over rice are the orders, the dim sum list runs from siu mai to xiao long bao, and the combo plates stay generous for the price. Open daily through dinner, with a second shop now in San Mateo. Thank you for feeding the neighborhood right. Five stars.“
