I visited for dim sum on a saturday morning and im really impressed with the quality of the food. The chicken feet had great flavor, which is a dish i order in every single dim sum restaurant i visit and is usually a good indicator of the restaurants food quality. The steam rice roll was very very soft. The portion size is definitely above average, a lot of places offer low prices but they noticably give you smaller portions, not so here. The value proposition is top notch. The restaurant is also probably one of the cleanest for this type of restaurant, it has an A rating, which actually a lot of dim sum restaurants usually have B ratings. The bathroom, definitely is the cleanest ive ever seen for a dim sum restaurant. The owner is an industry veteran, not just friendly, but very down to earth and approachable. Overall, highly recommended. read more

I was on the way to pick up some dim sum from my local spot when I saw this store was happening a soft opening. I looked up the menu and saw they have BBQ pork buns (chat siu buns) and had to give them a shot. The baked BBQ pork buns was pretty good. The steamed BBQ buns were fluffy but I liked the baked ones better. I also bought egg tarts, siu mai, red bean sesame balls and taro cake. Overall a not bad experience. I agree with the other review that this place is a tad overpriced. Will be back only for the buns, otherwise everything else was mid. read more

We got three dishes. Singapore style lobster, beef/green beans, and a sample trio of duck/cha sui pork, and crispy pork. All of us thought the lobster was amazing. The sauce was slightly spicy, slightly sweet, and a perfect consistency. Really amazing over rice. Green beans were smokey, charred, and with a perfect crisp remaining. Beef was super tender and tasty. Overall had a great experience, the place felt clean, and the price was quite reasonable for a sit down spot. read more

Big Ma's Kitchen - 1lb lobster (Singapore chili crab style) - Dim Sum Near Me - Rosemead, California

I visited Big Ma's Kitchen on Friday, 4/17 around 12:37 PM on the To-Go side and purchased four portions. I asked the middle-aged lady for soy sauce and red chili. She asked me to wait while she finished another transaction, but then helped another customer instead. I asked again, and although I spoke English, she made a face, handed me a small container of soy sauce, mumbled in another language, and turned away as if I was bothering her. Very rude and unfriendly service. I will not be returning. read more

Today around 11:30 in the morning,we went there to order dim sum Togo, and we order few different items, one of the item is Cha Sho Bao, guessed what, got home we open it up, is was nothing inside... are you kidding me?? Cha Sho Bao nothing inside???? And I called them to complain, then the guy asked me back in a mean way, " what do you want me to do?" In a mean way.. what the Fxxk??? What kind of attitude is that??? Sounds like my fault to order from them..... we will never go back there again....... Bad service.... read more

The experience was ok and the food was mid, but the lowlight of the restaurant was the air because their air conditioning pipe is leaking water somehow and it smells like garlic in the whole restaurant read more

Big Ma's Kitchen - The air conditioning is leaking water somehow - Dim Sum Near Me - Rosemead, California

Such a great spot! The food was really good -- super flavorful, fresh, and came out hot. Portions were generous and everything we ordered hit the spot. What really made this place stand out was the private room. We had our own space with karaoke and a private restroom, which made it perfect for a group hangout without feeling rushed or crowded. It felt like our own little party room. Staff was friendly and attentive, and the overall vibe was relaxed and fun. Definitely a place I'd come back to for celebrations or a night out with friends. Highly recommend! read more

Brand new interior with fancy tables and elegant turntables but the food portions are below average. Service is quick which is an anomaly in most Chinese restaurants. They leave these geometric gold water pitchers on the turntables for convenience, a nice touch. My husband thought the large pieces of beef in the chow fun was different and tastier than other places. However, the whole roast duck was cold and had very little meat, just skin. It arrived on a chafing plate, to make it warmer, perhaps. The walnut shrimp had large shrimps and a good portion of walnuts, but the portion was small. The Big Ma Special Noodles had rice vermicelli, like Singapore Noodles, without the curry. It was actually adequately sized. The dining room became noisier as the meal progressed. Also, this restaurant opens at 5 pm for dinner. read more

I ordered half chicken but $20. The food portions so little even with crispy pork. When I went home and looked at the receipt, i cant believe i just spent almost $70 for this. The foods are good, but the one on new street is better. I just tried to support but Im not happy. read more

Big Ma's Kitchen - I got half chicken $20. So expensive. - Dim Sum Near Me - Rosemead, California

In the first time, I aware the owner set a thin layer with his employees by letting his employees eat together while he was at the counter. A waitress told me he is the owner. Employer and employees, no problem. In the second time, I aware a young man (may be a supervisor, or the son of the owner) set a layer between dine in customer who pay tip and the to go customer. The young man with unpleasant face pointing a to go bag to ask me to take home. When I pick up the steamed sea bass and walk to the exit, the chef (owner) walked out from kitchen. The young man try to do something in front of the owner by the young man rush in front of me and the young man go to the dining customer. It is inappropriate to discriminate customers. The to go steam sea bass is undercooked - the fish meat and bone cannot separate, so I need to reheat till fully cooked the whole sea bass before eat. read more

If you are looking for large, juicy, har gow, this the place to come! We drove past this place and saw the special dim sum pricing of $5.59 for their grand opening and decided to give it a try. All of the items could've been a little more well seasoned, but we were not disappointed in the quality and portions. This restaurant has beautiful marble tables, comfy seats and engineered wood flooring...definitely not your traditional table cloth covered tables with sticky carpet...oops, the larger tables are still with a big table top and covered with a table cloth. No carts pushing the dim sum items to your table. Order off the menu and they cheerfully bring it out, piping hot from the kitchen. They also have a to go side with dim sum, combo plates and your traditional roast duck. roast pork and char siu. All look delicious. Can't wait to bring some home to try Ambiance is what you expect of a Chinese restaurant. Dishes clanking in the kitchen and the dining room is Noisy with families happily enjoying their time together. Definitely worth trying read more

I bought a whole roast duck and needed the staff to cut it for me! They chopped the duck meat while their backs were to me, and I saw them quickly push a cut duck leg into a bowl prepared near the cutting board. After they finished packing it, I reminded them that there was still one duck leg that belonged to me that wasn't in the container. They deliberately said that the duck leg wasn't mine, and another female server, who was in cahoots with them, told me that it wasn't mine! It's not a big deal if we lose one duck leg, but the restaurant's blatant theft is truly shameful... If they steal one duck leg from each customer, they could steal so many every day! read more

Great food and good prices! Came a little bit after lunch, yet they still had a lot of dim sum options available. Employee can speak Cantonese so they responded quickly to what I wanted to order. Not too busy, and also has a dining area for restaurant styled food. Parking - a lot but shares it with a supermarket read more

This was an extremely unprofessional and stressful experience. I made a phone reservation THREE WEEKS ago for a private room on 1/31/25 for my son's birthday, for 18 people. I was clearly told no deposit was required. To be clear: my reservation is documented and visible on their calendar. Today (1/24), I went in person to confirm the menu, and only then was I told that the private room had been given to another party because they accepted a deposit from them. Despite my reservation being clearly on their calendar, I was told there was "nothing they could do." That is completely unacceptable. If I hadn't come in today, we would have shown up on the day of the birthday and found out our room was gone. That's not a mistake -- that's careless and misleading business practice. You cannot confirm a reservation, put it on your calendar, tell a customer no deposit is needed, and then quietly override it for someone else who pays later. That shows a lack of integrity, communication, and basic organization. This caused unnecessary stress for a child's birthday event and forced us to scramble for alternatives. I would not trust this restaurant with any important event, and I strongly recommend getting everything in writing if you choose to book here. read more

Super busy, but expected due to being a Saturday at a fairly recent opening. Service wasn't the best and I had to call over the waiter to place our orders and get a check, which was also made harder with the dining area being super packed and loud. Yunnan Mushroom Fish Maw Soup ($11.99) - 3/5 The soup was super rich, but was still clean. However, the soup came out after we got our entire meal when they usually come out before. When we got the soup, it was lukewarm and we could tell it had been sitting out for a bit. Macau Braised Pork Belly ($18.99) - 1/5 Extremely disappointing presentation, could easily find better pork belly elsewhere for cheaper too. The pork belly skin wasn't crispy and also felt like this dish was sitting out for a second. Mapo Tofu ($16.99) - 1/5 Although the dish looked solid at first, but the sauce was way too watery and didn't taste like anything. There was also close to no meat in the mapo tofu. Likely the worst mapo tofu I've ordered in the area. Overall, there are way better options in the 626 area to find a Chinese sit down restaurant for celebrations or authentic meals. There is a to go dim sum service at the back, but would not go back to try this after my disappointing experience. read more

Excellent food excellent price plenty parking the restaurant just a little bit small

We arrived around 3 p.m., which turned out to be an inconvenient time especiaaly for a Chinese restaurant, as the kitchen staff were having their lunch in the same area as the guests. The service was lacking, with only a few staff paying attention to us, especially since we don't speak the language. The foods are good, we ordered dim-sum, but we've had better elsewhere. Overall, we didn't have a pleasant experience, which affected our enjoyment of dining at this restaurant. read more

The portions are small. The ingredients are very subpar. They overcharged me and the waiter even push his hands up against my chest and has harassed me and both of my senior parents ! Many people have complained that they overcharged customers read more

Please note: there are 2 separate entrances, one for the restaurant itself and one for dim sum/Chinese BBQ to-go. Upon no signage and entering the restaurant side, I noticed many broken tables, heat lamps and upsidedown chairs alongside the outside of the building. Looked like trash from renovations. I walked inside to a very full, chaotic restaurant with a man having his back towards me at the host stand. No greeting for about 2 minutes as I coughed and looked around to get anyone's attention. I walked away and found my path to the other side where the steam tables were located with the dim sum. I ordered 4 PCS xieu mai and a small side of egg noodles. Dry, cold and bland noodles. I asked for chili oil, vinegar and soy sauce as well but all of which WERE NOT in the bag and could've possibly saved the noodles. One star for packing chopsticks and napkins. read more

The shumai we bought last week for take out did not look identical to the ones we bought today. The wrap wasn't as bright yellow as last week and it seem'd like they been sitting overnight and reheated for our order. I wish I had taken a photo of the order last week, but it looked too good to not eat it instantly. read more

You can come up with a better name than Big Ma's Kitchen. It just seems like they want to do it all but lack capacity. The service was bad. The food is was mid. There was nothing special that would bring me back. Unfortunately, I would not come back here, and I wouldn't recommend it to friends. read more

Food are goods and prices reasonable. Service can be improved and be more attentive.

I ordered a large whole pig it turns out to be super huge and looks extremely nice. The meat is also very tender even the meat in the back part is tender. Definitely recommend this place if you want to order whole pig. read more

been here several times and each time service is worst and place seems very disorganized and they also gave me the wrong change

This place charge me full portion instead of half. I didn't even know until my dad told me since he can read chinese on the recipe. Chickens bought in the morning but turn green-blueish color in the afternoon. I have to throw them away because of the weird color. Overrated and expensive place. read more

This review is just for the char sui (BBQ pork.) The cut they use appears to be pork jowls. Perfect balance of meat and fat. The texture is to die for. Not too sweet and not too salty. Orange in color. I hope they never change this. It's the first time I've had this. I'll be back! read more

The staff were not friendly. I understand they could not speak English very well but my order was totally wrong. I ordered to go got home to a meal that Was way off. I asked for non crispy noodles got crispy noodles. The BBQ pork was not as good as other places. I think the food was just OK. But the staff was very unfriendly to me. As Asian folks walked in they were treated way different. Handing me my food without looking at me with no thank you, enjoy or good evening. Last time I come here. I was the only non Asian in the place and did not feel welcome at all read more

Improvement is needed. A sign in the to-go area reads line starts here with 2 arrows pointing to the far left and far right. If people ever tell you to get lost, come here and you'll get lost. The 2 female to-go counter workers are rude. They talk back and insult customers when asked what food do they have. They will reply you by saying can't you read the menu. Lastly, shumai is filled with too much fat. It should not be more than 1:1 fat to lean ratio. Maybe it's workmanship that's bad. I can see the fat hanging out like the homeboys on my block. read more

Went to this restaurant today. Ordered 6 dishes including dim sum. Made mistakes 3 times. Taste was average. When paying the bill, the waiter asked for 18% tip. No. Basic tip is still required. But we came here to eat well, not to solve the problem of food Disappointed.这个地方吃饱没有问题 但是吃好就差一点。 read more

This a fairly new food spot that open up in the SGV. My family loves coming here since they have good food and friendly service. I would highly recommend the beet shrimp paste rice roll and the football fried dumplings. For dessert if you haven't tried their egg tarts it is a must. So buttery and so flaky. I always have to order extra to-go. If you are willing to splurge a little I would recommend their bird nest in papaya. It's so delicious and so refreshing. Being pregnant eating bird nests in the Chinese culture it is kinda a must. It's definitely fresh and super delicious. Just remember to order at least 40 minutes ahead since it does take some time to make it but you won't regret it. I still craved for it til this day. read more

Good complimentary lunch soup, 4 out of 5 stars lunch special dishes, good service for a Chinese place. Would come back again. Horrible parking lot with tiny spaces and all cramped, but not their fault. read more

Don't waste your time or money. There is nothing special about this place. Food is fine but way overpriced for the quality. The space is small and cramped. Service is terrible Our party had ordered the red rice shrimp roll and when it came out it was cold. There was no shrimp in it at all and I mean none. Just fried dough. We noticed another table had ordered the same dish and their rolls were filled with shrimp paste. When we pointed this out to the owner, he quickly dismissed us telling us that we were wrong without even checking our dish!! This interaction completely ruined the rest of the meal. Because of this, we chose not to tip and when the host checked us out, he asked why we did not tip. I told them how we were not satisfied about the shrimp roll dish and the rude owner. Let's be real, in the SGV when there's an abundance of affordable and delicious restaurants, this place misses the mark tremendously. read more
