They really need more parking space. That aside, the food was okay. We did our grandma's birthday here. We had the king crab. They cooked it in three different ways with different parts of the king crab. I thought that was awesome. However, the taste was just okay, nothing really special. The service was not bad. Lots of waiters walking around, busy even though the restaurant wasn't that packed. We had to get our own napkins from time to time. We had dim sum here as well. Dim sum was not bad. Most of their food don't taste that salty; However, we do get very thirsty afterwards. I think they used MSG, but not really sure. We did drinked lots of tea while eating, still got thirsty. On grandma's birthday, they did give us free birthday-buns fill with sweets. Their king crab was super expensive! Be sure to ask for the price before ordering it.

「鴻豐尚品」 Originally I was here to park my car and wanted to have lunch at other restaurant nearby. But the sign shows “parking Lot is for customer only”. That’s the reason why I have my lunch here. I am very pleased with the amazing dim sum and the old-time atmosphere. The portion of food is huge and the price is reasonable. Definitely I’ll come back again!

Ordered Shrimp and Pork Shiu Mai, Chu Zhou Fun Gor, Crispy Eggroll, Deep fried dumpling with mochi, egg custard tart, and Beef Chow Fun. The Shrimp and Pork Shiu Mai were a nice size and a different topping that might be pork floss instead of the usual roe that is on top of the shiu mai. The Chu Zhou Fun Gor were on the smaller side in terms of size, still quite flavorful with a slightly different mix of more seasoned vegetables inside. The Crispy Eggroll were petite, decorated nicely and still very hot and fresh inside. The Deep fried dumpling with mochi was served hot and had a nice sticky exterior to crunch into. The egg custard tarts were on the smaller side too but the egg part of the tart seemed to be more egg custard concentrated than other places. And the Beef Chow Fun was probably the best dish to end with, generous slices of beef inside this well-seasoned noodle dish, a great pick out of all of this. Service was fast, foot traffic through lunch was not very busy, but the two parking area are very tight on space and availability. Interior ambiance is loud, lots of chatter going on so it’s easy to be drowned out by the voices around you. The tablecloths are more like table plastic, it’s some sort of plastic sheet that they overlay, looks nice but a little weird at first sight. Overall, there are other greater options for dimsum, especially with their middling price, this was fine but there was a lot of room for improvement.

Great restaurant for a big family event, birthday party, etc. It also has rooms for private dining and a room with koreoke. The food is really good. If you plan to have a party here, you can also request a floor stage. Dim sum in the morning noon, family dinner at night.

I was born in Guangdong, China and lived there for 18 years. I can say this is really authentic dim sum, and I highly highly highly recommend this. The food portions are big and the price is also decently affordable. It's a must-go, guys.

We came here for a family dinner with a party of eight and ordered both king crab and geoduck. The seafood was impressively fresh and the portions generous. The king crab was flavorful and perfectly cooked, while the geoduck sashimi was clean, crunchy, and refreshing. Service was attentive and efficient throughout the meal, and for the quality of seafood, the pricing was very reasonable. Great experience overall — would definitely return for another celebration or large gathering.

My friend has been telling me about the good dim sums of this restaurant. Finally we had a chance to come today for dine in Dim Sum. We used to come here quite often when we were living in Montery Park long time ago. We hadn’t been here for awhile. The restaurant had changed hands many times then. According to my friend, the dim sums are still very good here. The restaurant seemed to take all the covid safety measures for dine in. Tables were well spaced out and sanitizer was provided. After looking over the limited dim sum menu, we decided to try out their steam BBQ pork bun, sticky rice in lotus wrap, steam rice noodle with shrimp, siu mai, and shrimp dumpling. The verdict on the food: the dim sums were decent, tasty and fresh. All dim sums were steamed to order. The best dish for me was the Siu Mai. The pork was tender and bouncy. The flavor was fantastic. The steam BBQ pork was a bit dry. Over all, for less than $4, it’s a good value for the dim sum and the foods were above average. I would definitely come back to try their dinner as I saw a lot of promotion dea on the dinner menu。 Service was very friendly and efficient. We got our food in less than 5 minutes after ordering.
