Food was great. Pork&Shrimp shumai were excellent. Asparagus wrapped in bacon and coconut shrimp to die for. Service was great - good pricing.

We're so happy to be introduced to this hidden gem. It's Hong Kong style dimsum meets Japanese yakitori meets oysters! Pricing is reasonable too. A must try!

Such a gem!Attentive and thoughtful service. Great vibe for a dinner with friends, colleagues and family. Beautiful decor, cups and utensils, good attention to detailsWide selection of food from Japanese izakaya, ramen, Cantonese dim sum to Shanghainese dishes. Every single dish I tried exceeded my expectations. Ingredients were fresh and cooking excellent. I’d say they are among the best Izakaya in this area.Will surely be back!

From the service, to wait time, to food. This place is top notch. Best dumplings I’ve had in the Bay Area and yes I have tried a lot. I’m not getting paid for this review although I wish I was. Really good dumplings, try them out and get the chili

*3.5 Stars but rounding up to 4 because I like the concept Finding a good dim sum place in the peninsula isn't easy so when Brochette Dumpling came to RWC, I wanted to check it out to see if it was good. I came on a Monday afternoon around Happy Hour and the restaurant wasn't busy. There were about 4 tables/groups and plenty of open seating so the two servers were very attentive. The vibe of the restaurant is very aesthetically pleasing and modern, cool decor and atmosphere, minus the fact that it wasn't very busy. Great place for a date or group dinner. The food itself was pretty good, fresh and not oily like Chinese food can tend to be. - The green onion pancake was perfectly light and crispy, without being drenched in oil, which I was pleasantly surprised by. - $1 fresh oysters were really small but tasted fresh and not fishy. - The dim sum dumplings (soup dumplings, har gaw, & siu mai) were all juicy and filled with a lot of protein. Thin wrappers, not overly doughy. - The chicken wings with the house special sauce were okay. Juicy and fresh but slightly lacking in flavor, even with the sauce. The chicken itself needed more seasoning or marination. - Fresh Water Eel (unagi) grilled skewer was really good, small portion though - Pork with Preserved Egg Porridge was decent, a little on the blander side and could've used more seasoning but it does the job if you're craving a comforting soup - Chinese Donut is a MUST if you're eating porridge. The serving at Brochette was crispy, airy and not oily All in all, the food at Brochette is good BUT for the price?! It's not worth paying DOUBLE for what you'd get at a standard Chinese/dim sum restaurant. Even with the happy hour prices, it's only a dollar or two off the appetizers which doesn't do much. You're honestly just paying for the vibe and aesthetics. As much as I enjoyed the food, I probably wouldn't come back.

Late post... I dine here for the last time. I had hair in my dumpling and a dirty glass. I question this place for cleanliness and hygiene?? Other time I did come, my table was ignored and we had to keep flagging a server down and we were ignored. Not worth my time!
delishious flavor, dumplings have good flavor, has the chicken and mushroom and also the cabbage and pork. the pork bone broth noodles was the best! a must try - can't wait to try more!

This place is amazing but lets be real people, $11 for three pieces of dumplings. Just drive to an actual dim sum place and go

A wide selection of asian dishes from dumplings to noodles. There is something for everyone, including vegetarians. Skewer selection is extensive and covers asian cuts like skin and gizzards. Pork belly and A5 was my favorite. Was told all the dumplings are freshly made by their SF location. Service was prompt and helpful, interior space still looked freshly renovated. Will be back for Happy Hour (4-6pm) as they had $6 wine by the glass.
