Has some of the best dishes and prices in the area despite fierce competition. However, it has a male waiter around 18–25 years old in the dining area that’s always crampy. A rather sad individual, I might say. Got the order wrong? Not my fault, you should’ve spoken more clearly. Need a menu? Why? Aren’t you supposed to speak the language since you look Asian? so on, and so forth. Hope he gets paid better, taught better manners, or both.

I ordered Chinese BBQ take out:. Roast duck, roast pork and soy sauce chicken. Food quality is just so so. Service, I would considered below par. Condiments are not provided such as sweet plum sauce for the duck and soy sauce for dipping the chicken. These are generally provided in other establishments.

Authentic dimsum, most sizes of dimsum are in 1 low price Monday to Friday.

Good foods dim sum no matter breakfast tea or lunch meals tasty oriental pan fry noodle chow fun and vermicelli are the great deals comfotable nice place any size parties to enjoy.

Came here on Chinese New Years with my folks and it was top notched service! Incredibly fresh dim sum and must have pork buns with a light sweetened crust. Everything was fresh and piping hot

It was good and economic price before. Now their food quality is a little slide down. Price is still economic compared to other dim sum place. They sell flat rate (4.59) for every dimsum, but they removed some of my favorite dimsum and upgrade one plate (steam pork rib with noodles) to a special flat ($9.5). I have no idea why they did that. I didn't notice at the beginning and ordered another pork rib steam noodle and it didn't tastes very good.Service is still as good as before. Maybe I came in weekdays and they are not very busy.

This is a good place to have authentic southern Chinese cooking and they have great BBQ items as well.Though they're price is not on the economy side but their ingredients are fresh and high qualify. The serving portions for dine in items are generous as well.They also have Dim Sum as breakfast items. Services are great and attending. Would definitely return to try the other items on the menu the next time.Good place for family Chinese meals with a large party group. The parking lot is small for the seating size but you can find plenty of parking near by on the streets as well.

The food was excellent along with the customer service. They were really accommodating and breakfast foods are limited but what they do have is excellent. I 10/10 recommend coming to eat here. Anytime of the day.

They have one of the best Shumais 燒賣 and THE best egg-tart 蛋塔, and pretty good duck, everything else is decent.*Veggies are expensive and DON'T waste money on the pigeon!

Monterey Palace Restaurant has a pretty good special event menu. We were there for a wedding rehearsal dinner with family and friends. The wait staff were friendly and very quick to provide assistance. The food itself was tasty and fresh. Since there was a large group they even gave us a private room.
