I am visiting from the East Coast. It was my first time having dinner here. The food was super salty. Staff were rude and not attentive. We had 12 people in our group, there for we ordered the family, preset meal for 10 ($450+), which had mostly meat and seafood dishes. I also ordered 3 additional veggies dishes from the regular menu for 3 of my guests, who are vegetarians. I specifically asked to have the veg. Dishes to be done first and bring them out right after the appetizers and soup. The staff kept cutting me off and brushing off. " sure sure sure". 4 dishes later, including the appetizers and soup... my 3 guests were just sitting watching us eat. I asked the waiting staff again for the veggie dishes and tried to explain why, again, I got cut off and reassured that it was on its way. Well, 2 more dishes later, my vegetarian friends still had nothing to eat. By the time those came out, we were already at the end of the 8 course meal. Then they forgot our desert. We waited almost another 30 minutes just to get the darn desert that was part of the 8 course meal.My final bill was $588, and they added 20% tip for themselves. It was totally not worth my money.In talking about my day with my uncle, who lives in the area, he said that this place is only known for awesome dim sum, but nothing else. Would not recommend lunch or dinner there.

They cheat you. They give a cheaper substitute. If you order something for $11.50 they substitute something for $9.95. It's a nightmare to fix. We ordered 2 things for $11.50, they substituted some tofu instead. Of all the substitutions, tofu.Not only don't you get what you ordered, they cheat you out of money: the price, the delivery cost which is a % of the higher cost order, the tax, and this royal hassle.UBER EATS SUCKS EGGS. You can't get refunded from UBER EATS. Mistake is on the restaurant level.You waste time, not the food you ordered and overpaid.They do this regularly. This is the 3rd time they've done this to us . I am so pissed am going to take them to Small Claims. This is essentially theft.

Dim Sum King (know as DSK :) ) is one of the best dim sum restaurants in the bay area. The service is fast and they are very nice! The restaurant feels open and is very clean. One recommendation is to order the fried shrimp ball - see photo. It is one of the best items on the menu.
Very bad attention from the staff, they treat those who go to get home orders with great indifference, they make you wait too long and they don't care about giving good attention.

Enjoyed the dim sum here, it all seemed fresh (not warmed up from frozen as dumplings often are. The pea shoots were not as tender as they could be, they were a bit more mature (ie more stalky less leafy) than I prefer them, but the sauce they came in was very nice. The pot stickers were the largest we have ever seen and had a very nice dough. The steamed shrimp dumplings were a bit plain but each had two large shrimp inside, which was a pleasant surprise as I had expected chopped up shrimp meat. My favorite item was the spicy wonton, which had eight or more on the plate with plenty of chili oil, scallions, and some sort of salty preserved vegetable that made for a complex flavor. The environment is a little hectic but they were well staffed and courteous, if brisk, and the open kitchen inspires confidence. There were live crabs in tanks and roasted pigeons with the heads still on so perhaps not for the squeamish, but I will go again to try more items from their extensive menu.
Baked pork bun tasted old. You can tell from the bread. Shomai was dry as if it's been there and reheated, sane with shrimp dumplings. Won't be going back. Too pricy for that poor

Family Dinner with the in-laws again. Night parking is difficult since this large strip mall has many popular stores and restaurants. I end up street parking half the time.So here are some of the dishes we ordered. It was family style. Note service tonight was much faster than normal. From ordering to first dish out was under 10 minutes.Honey Walnut Shrimp ($22.95) flashed fried batter shrimp (pretty good size shrimp) covered in sweet mayo with some candied walnuts. This time the shrimp was a bit on the salty side and they were really light on the walnuts. Will give this a 3 out of 5.(3/5)Beef chow fun ($17.50) is really good. You can taste the "wok hay". Nice and smokey. Beef is tender. Love the way this dish was balanced. 4/5Salt & Pepper Flounder Fillet ($16.95). Battered pieces of fish then deep fried. The batter is really light. The fish is moist and flaky. 4/5Salt & Pepper Pork Chops ($16.95) small pieces of pork in a season flour dredge, then deep fried. Tender and moist. Really good flavor. Some of the pieces needed to be trimmed some more. 4/5Sweet & Sour Pork Chops ($17.95) same cuts of pork as the Salt & Pepper, but the pork is a heavier batter, then it's deep fried. The sauce is sickly sweet... no tanginess at all. 3/5Japanese Tofu & Pea Sprouts in Broth ($20.95) This is my favorite dish. The tofu is slightly fried to give the outer layer a slight crispy texture. This really contrasts the soft silky interior. For those that do not like tofu... this might convert you. The pea sprouts taste like a cross between fresh peas and spinach. What the menu has down as broth in reality is a brown sauce, savory. It goes well with the dish. 5/5.Peking Duck ($42.95). Crispy skin, soft buns and some sweet hoison sauce... cannot go wrong. The dish is served with the duck broken down and mostly deboned. The crispy skin is served on top of the meat. The meat is tender and moist. 5/5All right so now for the cleanliness review. There was a whole cook prawn on the floor under the table where I sat. It must have been left by the previous guests.The Men's room today was actually cleaner than normal... the floor was not exceptionally wet and the trash can was not over flowing.All staff wore masks.Parking: Large shared lot

Had dinner there with friends and family. Dim sums were good and dinner plates were pretty good. However, service was not good. Maybe too late. We had reservation at 8pm.We had teriyaki cube beef, sweet sour chicken, salt and pepper tofu, dim sums. Food was good. Service was not good, maybe our server was tired, long day.
