Crab with curry is a must order! You definitely get Umami and a bit kick from the curry sauce, we dipped the last drop of the sauce by the France Bugette; Beef was very tender; stir fry Vegetable was hard to chew, that was a little bit disappointing; Fried rice was everyone's favorite; the desert was unique but comfort you at the end, because it was green beans with tapioca, and seaweed inside. General speaking all the dishes were great! The servers were very friendly, they cared all 8 of us. They did sharing dishes; changing new plates; adding hot water, bringing more napkins. They were great! We go to this restaurant while we are there from East Coast. Definitely will go again and again.

As far as the taste, it's not bad for a quick lunch and the prices are fair for the portions that you get. We had a family outing and ordered multiple of each dish. The menu is not that big but it had all the popular items. Some were sold out. We ordered: Pork shu mai Shrimp dumplings Pork soup dumplings Shrimp rice noodle roll Shrimp and chive dumplings Spicy wonton in chil sauce Chicken feet Fried rice cake Wonton soup The items didn't come out in stainless or bamboo steamer baskets but in styrofoam or plastic take out containers. It made clean up easy. They don't offer free water and charge $1 for Kirkland bottle. I don't see us returning but if you're dining solo or looking for "express" take out, this place does it. 3.5 round to 4 stars.

It was so cheap back then I fed them all for $85.00. Today's prices are pretty standard. The food is delicious and reminds me of some food from Hawaii at my grandmas house. Service is really awesome they serve from carts and are ready to serve the moment you sit down. The look is a little outdated but people who know food know that the outside doesn't necessarily match the inside (food) experience. I'll be brining friends and family back here again.

The restaurant on a Saturday at 12:30 was very busy but plenty of seating available.. As soon as we sat down, tea was on the table & the Dim Sum carts started rolling up to our table.. The service fast, plentiful & many choices.. The food, all very good to delicious.. The inside of the restaurant, very clean, as were the restrooms.. Overall value, money well spent, didn't break the bank.. The only negative I found was, the tea they first put on your table, you are charged for it, no a big deal, $3.00..The real issue, no one tells you.. I have an old expression..I don't have to like the rules, but I do need to know what they are.. All n all a sold 4.5 stars.. You'll not be disappointed..

I got married at White Palace in April 2026 and had an exceptional experience planning my wedding…read morewith them. Kevin, Tuân, and Trieu answered all our questions clearly and helped us achieve our dream wedding. I am Vietnamese, and my husband is not, so they made accommodations to find menu items that would serve a multicultural guest list. The prices were very fair and transparent, and the 9 course menu was delicious. White Palace also decorated the restaurant for us and provided meaningful special touches like a champagne tower, special effects for the first dance, and a decorated sweetheart table. The restaurant and their staff made us feel valued and made our wedding shine. While doing wedding research, other venues had hidden charges while White Palace was all inclusive and reasonable. My only suggestion is that they should slice thinner cake slices. They sliced large slices so some of my guests did not receive cake while the guests who got cake didn't finish theirs. I would gladly recommend White Palace to anyone who is planning a wedding.

This review is long overdue. This restaurant used to be my favorite go to Chinese restaurant. The…read moredim sum at Seafood Cove2 is totally overrated and the crowd there made it very stressful so I used to come here, Seafood Paradise for dim sum in a relaxed atmosphere. In December 2023 my sister who lives in HB harbor claimed this resto was too far for her but finally decided to have a big Christmas Birthday party and invited 30, 40 people, the manager was not there and my usual server was not there either so I asked and was shocked at the news although I expected it, the new owner told me he had closed on the purchase that day and would change the name to White palace but he would keep the chef and the manager David but that was not the case. To me the best Chinese restaurants were Furiwa and Seafood Paradise. It was sad they failed to understand that w today economy dominated by social medias and if they do not follow the trend, they would be out of business, I told David the manager but he was so confused about what I was talking about. Bad restaurants that spent money on social medias thrived beyond comprehension. My sister ordered the usual wedding menu, 10 courses w lobster, steamed fish, etc..I knew immediately it was a new chef, the lobster was flavorless, almost every course was bland but many people I know have hay fever and with severe sneezing sometimes they lose their sense of taste on top of being born w less taste buds, it can be a curse to have too many taste buds as I was skinny all my life from not being able to enjoy eating till I started cruising when in the old days, cruise ship chefs were of Michelin caliber. My sister threw another big bash on Chinese/VN new year 2-10-2024, again 10 courses dinner and again everything was bland, there was not even enough salt in the food. I made no comment when asked bc everybody seemed to like it so who was I to say anything and I wanted to support the new owner, the service was great so that was a plus. I came by many times for dim sum and was disappointed the menu was limited, my favorite items were no longer offered. On 1-18-2026 my cousin had a big party, she is the Cai Luong singer and impresario, if my count was correct there were 20 tables, 200 attendants and many performers. Unfortunately for $60 to $75 pp, they could only offered 5 courses as they had to pay the performers. Needless to say, I could only eat the walnut shrimp and fried fish, the fried rice was not at all edible, what were they thinking? no salt, very little egg, I sure did not get fat!. I think 3 stars are generous as I was frustrated w the meal, I had no idea what the lead singer was singing/screaming about so loud in Saigonese! Lol! The dude was a VN version of Liberace!. I was there to keep up w long lost relatives, I sadly found out one had just died and I was not able to find out what happened bc the sound system was not functioning properly, it was blasting so loud, I was almost deaf in both ears! It was impossible to know what all the performers were saying. The manager if you read this please fix it, I have no idea how any wedding can take place w zero sound system unless it just went kaput on that one day. I'll tell my cousin to check on this before booking here again. I can't believe they also bought another restaurant on Edinger, Santa Ana, maybe it's just me but I don't like the all white chairs and table, I worked all my life in hospital and I'm not a fan of all white furniture, The old Seafood paradise had beautiful romantic looking pink flowers, table cloth and beautiful comfortable chairs. I'm glad they seem to be doing great, good for them, I'm not going back here but I plan to go to their 2nd resto. Unfortunately HB and Little Saigon do not have very good Chinese restaurants, I miss Hong Kong and all the 5 stars hotel ayce buffets in, I'm looking forward to my VN trip w all the good food unfortunately Yelp has no presence in VN. My camera always eats first, I have about 10,000 pictures of food in my IPhone from all my cruises and trips around the world, I enjoy looking and relive all my culinary experience. Pl come back for my future review of the White palace #2.

As mentioned earlier, they were very busy so the waiter let us know that we should put our food orders in right away and not to add dishes later. The wait staff was very nice to us. The restaurant has a Peking duck special. It was okay but a lot of food for only around $40! The prices on their dishes were very reasonable. Six of us and the bill came out to about $20/person only for a delicious lunch. And portions were big too. We had leftovers. We will definitely return.

You also can't ever go wrong with spicy wontons, pan fried buns, popcorn chickens, or braised green beans. Yum! Huge bonus: the restaurant is directly connected to Ben Gong's Tea. Loooove the osmanthus milk tea! I'd recommend subbing out the crystal boba and rice with regular boba and tea cubes.

Mine and my bf's go to are the dry fried green beans, mapo tofu, Chong Qing Spicy Chicken, and Yang Chow fried rice. These are more than enough for two people and we always have leftovers to take home. The mapo tofu pairs soooo well with the fried rice and my bf loves the chicken. Green beans are flavorful and crispy as well! Hot and sour soup is HUGE. They aren't consistent in making this because some days it's the perfect balance of tangy and spicy flavor, but other times its tooooo sour. The restaurant is very spacious. I love that you can just order via QR (on your phone).

How they are able when inflated costs are everywhere and the national government is taxing/ tariffing imported goods too ? The quality for such a tiny spot is still there. No it's not gourmet nor gourmet prices either. It's just good quality " street food " that is competitive as well as a bargain. Yes. Pricing is up but nothing like the other dim sum spots And tastes will satisfy everyone except the most jaded critics who favor sit down elegance with tablecloth and uniformed service staff. A quiet simple pleasurable variety found in an old Asian Supermarket Might even provide nostalgic thoughts of visits to a "foreign" location of travel. Lol
