“Their porridges are thick, hot and satisfying. Their rice rolls are also delicious along with the dim sum. Ordering through their QR code was much easier and less pressure for me plus it had plenty of pictures and good descriptions of each item. I appreciate that they always provide extra bowls and spoons for sharing. Unisex restroom available but be prepared to wait during weekends.“
“Just discovered this place! Didn't know it was so close to work. It's like a little hole in the wall. What makes it a great place is their stuff is fresh. They make their own dumplings there too and you can probably watch them from outside making them. Their food tastes so good and service was super quick. We were expecting to pay a lot but the prices here were reasonable. Will definitely come back!“
“Take it from a Hong Kong kid...these are seriously legit zongzi that taste just like the cantonese ones I grew up with. Definitely above your typical market rates, but I promise these will be true to the OG flavors. It's mostly a food pick-up type of service where you walk up to a shared space and ring a doorbell to have an aunty bring out your stuff.Online ordering was how I did it, but you can also call/text an order over the phone. The ordering process is a bit unusual in that you have to plan these ahead of time (by about 3-days or so depending on time of week) then wait for a confirmation text on the day of. Unfortunately, impromptu cravings must likely be held at bay. Sometimes you can short-notice stuff if they have leftovers, but that's defintely a gamble. With either planning or luck, you'll then walk off with a hefty bag of deliciousness. You can have the option of getting them freshly cooked or frozen (for stocking up).The zongzi are well packaged and tightly wrapped with color-codings to the string to separate the fillings from each other. It's a bit cryptic, but you'll notice those correspond with the pictures on their ordering site. Descriptions of the fillings are true to their amount and pretty well packed with goodness (none of the mostly-rice-zongzi here).After cracking the first one open and taking my first bite, it was like that Ratatouille moment with Anton having flashbacks to his childhood (but like the Chinese version). Filled with delicious aromas and rich succulent glory, with not a dry spot in (culinary) sight. If that hasn't convinced you to at least try these buggers, I'm not sure what will!“
“Dim sum without the cart ladies. They have dim sum brought out in the carts after you order with their electronic tablet on the tables. But be aware they really only look at the food order that prints, and you have to ask the human waiters for water and napkins, even after you select those things on the tablet. Food was decent, the service was decent, large parking lot in san jose is a big deal. The price is lower than higher end places, and if you are okay with to go chopsticks and cantonese (or pointing) as the main communication, this is a decent option.I would come here if i did not want to spend double at asian pearl. But if i want bigger and better quality, maybe only if i was less than 5 miles away.“
“We buy dim sum every week from Dim Sum king, food is fresh and tasty, price is good !Today, they celebrated Chinese New Year with Lion dance and dragon dance, there were hundred of people watching. They bring the community together to enjoy the festivities!“
“I'm from out of town and came back after a few years' absence, and this place still did not disappoint. Besides fantastic dim sum, we ordered a few dishes off the regular menu which were excellent. For dim sum, I'd especially recommend the baked bbq buns.“
“Definitely a surprise to find such a great Chinese restaurant attached to a Ramada Inn! I lived and traveled all over China for 2 years and I was pleasantly surprised to find such an authentic Chinese dining experience this side of the Pacific and buried in the suburbs! I learned a bit more about its history while there; turns out that the restaurant leased out the space after the Ramada restaurant closed and has been around since!I honestly can't fault the restaurant on anything! The food was fabulous and very representative of a delicious Cantonese dining experience. The classic round tables had me right back at home in Shanghai and Suzhou and the cuisine reminded me of so many late nights out with friends in Shenzhen and Guangzhou. Every dish we ate was part of a Lunar New Year's fixed menu and perfectly captured the holiday spirit. My only disappointment was that it wasn't my personal favorite of the wide diversity of Chinese cuisines, but that is splitting hairs and I can't put that on the restaurant, haha. They executed their meal and regional cuisine flawlessly and every bite was juicy and delicious!If you are looking for an authentic Chinese food experience, I highly recommend making it out to Sifu Wong Kitchen. Since I ordered the fixed menu for Lunar New Year, I can't attest to the typical menu per se, but I will definitely be coming back. I might need to keep an eye on the prices though, cause the holiday meal was a bit on the pricey side.“
“My return home was made exceptionally special, thanks to a surprise lunch date at Lei Garden, orchestrated by my thoughtful husband right after picking me up from the airport. This gesture, combined with the joy of seeing my beloved dog and spouse again, was wonderfully augmented by the promise of indulging in Lei Garden’s unparalleled dim sum - a culinary highlight we always look forward to.Lei Garden has cemented its place in our hearts as the ultimate destination for quality dim sum. The restaurant’s commitment to excellence is evident in every dish served. Our favorites were presented steaming hot, a testament to their freshness and the kitchen’s dedication to delivering the best dining experience. The flavors were as comforting and delightful as ever, making each bite a reminder of why we keep coming back.The staff at Lei Garden deserves special mention for their exceptional service. Their long-standing presence suggests a loyalty and consistency that’s rare to find. Their attentiveness is remarkable; a quick glance their way guarantees immediate assistance, making us feel valued and well-cared for throughout our meal.A noteworthy instance of their exemplary service occurred when, in my jet-lagged state, I mistakenly wrote a $200 tip on the bill. Demonstrating honesty and integrity, the staff promptly found us at the door to verify the amount. This act of kindness and honesty was deeply appreciated and speaks volumes about the character of Lei Garden’s team.Lei Garden is not just a restaurant; it’s a haven of delightful culinary experiences, underscored by genuine hospitality and a warm, inviting atmosphere. It’s our preferred spot for celebrating the simple joys of life with good food and great company. Our latest visit was a reminder of the many reasons we cherish this place. Heartfelt thanks to Lei Garden for another unforgettable dining experience and for upholding the highest standards of food quality and service. Five stars all the way!“

“One of the best lunches I’ve had in awhile. The Kung Pao Chicken lunch special was plentiful, the chicken fresh and tender with rich sauce and crunchy veggies. Can’t say much for the setting and service, but the food is worth the visit.“
“Koi Palace in Milpitas is perpetually bustling, particularly on weekends, often with a wait of one to two hours for a table. While it offers high-quality dim sum, it comes at a steep price. For those willing to splurge, it's a worthwhile choice.However, San Francisco boasts better-priced and tastier alternatives but it’s a trek from the South Bay. Despite the crowds, the service remains commendable, though there may be long wait time during peak times.Parking in the plaza is usually hassle-free, surrounded by a variety of Asian eateries and businesses. Overall, I'd recommend it if you have both the budget and the patience.“
“Finding myself in the midst of a garden cleanup on a serene Sunday morning, my cravings for dimsum became impossible to ignore. Fortunately, DoorDash was there to save the day. With a few quick taps, my order was placed, and in what felt like the blink of an eye, a friendly DoorDash driver was greeting me at my door, handling my food with the utmost care and a smile that matched the sunny day.I had chosen eight different dishes, each promising a taste of Hong Kong’s authentic culinary landscape. And promise they did! The quality and flavors of the food were outstanding, capturing the essence of traditional Hong Kong dimsum with every bite. Whether it was the tender, flavorful dumplings, the perfectly steamed buns, or the savory rolls, each dish was a testament to the chef’s expertise and the rich culinary culture they represent.The fair pricing was the cherry on top, making this indulgent feast feel all the more satisfying. It’s not often that you find a place that delivers not only on taste but also on value, and this restaurant nailed it.For anyone looking to explore authentic dimsum or simply in need of a delicious meal without the hassle of dining out, I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. Thanks to DoorDash, my Sunday gardening chore turned into an unexpected culinary adventure, making for a truly memorable morning. Five stars all around for the incredible food, swift delivery, and the joy of discovering a new favorite.“
“I was super excited to try this restaurant! It was 11:30 and the place was packed. But we got a table almost immediately. All customers were of some Asian descent so I believe that's a good sign for a Chinese restaurant. Their service was quick and efficient. The food was GOOD! My favorite were the Pan fried pork bun with vegetables and the Salt and pepper squid. The Beef chow fun with Mongolian sauce was neither spicy nor tasty. My hubby loved the Steamed shrimp and pea sprout dumpling and the Steamed chicken feet in black bean sauce. Recommend Golden Palace for a good Dim Sum!“
“We like to come here to have our crave on Hong Kong cafe style food satisfied, even though we have to drive a long distance. And the price is very inexpensive. They have daily set menu with 4 choices that come with either a drink or soup of the day. Note that if you pay by credit card there will be a 3% additional charge. One thing I don't like is that they serve with all plastic bowls and utensils. The saving grace is that if you need to take you leftover home, they just need to give you a lid.“
“Amazing authentic cantonese food. Originally called "Cooking Papa". Not sure how to describe the experience. I have been here multiple times. It is Hong Kong style home style cooking with so much more. We ordered 8 different dishes (eggplant w/fish, sauteed peas sprout, spicy pork, roasted pork belly, stir fry (including lotus root, black fungus, chinese sausage, celery, snow peas, mushrooms) spicy deep fried fish, congee w/fish, egg and sprimp over chow fun and singapore style curried noodles. I still do not know which dish was my favourite. 100% recommend.“
