Came here on a Sunday a few weeks ago to grab dim sum, had been craving it for a while, and my partner described this to be her go to place. Stopped on in and saw that the place was extremely busy already (as it would be on a Sunday!). We grabbed a number and waited about 20 minutes to get a seat, which was fairly normal. The place was packed with dim sum eaters and lively with conversations. We ordered a few of our favorite dishes like Sui Mai, Steamed spare ribs, and chicken feet. The food came out quickly, and the food was pretty on point for dim sum. Definitely a place to come for your dim sum fix; just know it can get packed!
The food was actually good, but the service was extremely disappointing. I understand that at some traditional Chinese restaurants the service can be more casual and straightforward, so I wasn't expecting anything fancy or over-the-top. But the attitude here was on another level. I simply asked the waiter for some napkins, and he rolled his eyes at me and walked away. It felt like asking them for anything was such a burden. The staff looked miserable, and the whole place had such a negative aura that you could feel it as a customer. That kind of energy really affects the dining experience. A few of my friends who have been here many times have also said the same thing about the service, so unfortunately this doesn't seem like a one-time issue. At the end of the day, I think a lot of that comes down to the owner and how the restaurant is managed. If customer service isn't being prioritized, it reflects on the whole staff and the experience people have there. Good food can only make up for so much. I don't expect perfect service, but I do expect basic respect without getting attitude for simply asking for something. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back.
My fave dim sum place!! Best to get there before or at opening to not wait for a table. We strolled in at 10AM on Memorial Day weekend and were seated immediately for our table of 15. Some tables get iPads to order, others paper menus to mark off and submit--not sure if there's a method to which table gets what. iPad ordering makes things really easy, especially if you decide to order more food. Food rolls out SUPER quickly if you get here around opening. I love this place for their flavorful, consistently delicious food. Must-get dishes include the baked custard buns, shrimp rice rolls, siu mai, and salted egg fried pumpkin.
I originally came to Fusion Delight because of the purple interior. Seriously. The giant lotus chandeliers, the deep violet lighting, the old-school banquet hall atmosphere - it immediately reminded me of the large Cantonese restaurants that used to define family dining in the Bay Area years ago. But after eating here during a packed weekend dinner service, I realized the real attraction is not the decor. It is the operational consistency. The dining room was completely full, with a long line of people still waiting outside. Under that kind of pressure, many large Chinese restaurants start losing control somewhere: fried dishes soften, stir-fries lose wok hei, food arrives unevenly, service becomes rushed. Fusion Delight somehow keeps the system together. And what impressed me even more was that the staff never became impatient. Even with the restaurant running at full capacity, the servers stayed friendly, patient, and organized. No chaos, no attitude - just steady service under pressure. That is not easy in a restaurant this size. The Mongolian beef was the first thing that stood out. Instead of thin slices hidden under sauce, the beef here is cut unusually thick and long - some pieces nearly two inches. Thick-cut beef is risky because once overcooked it immediately turns tough, but here the meat stayed tender while still carrying proper wok sear and caramelization. That tells me the kitchen understands heat control and timing. The crispy pork intestines were even more impressive. These were clearly braised first, then fried before the final stir-fry. The outside kept its gelatin-rich texture while the inside still carried fat and aroma, but without the unpleasant odor that ruins this dish at weaker restaurants. Even people who normally avoid intestine dishes could probably eat this version comfortably. That level of cleaning and pre-processing matters. The braised lamb with skin was another old-school banquet dish done correctly. The lamb was soft without collapsing, while the skin still retained structure. More importantly, the prep work was meticulous -- no gamey smell, no rough trimming, no shortcuts. The sea cucumber and pork tendon dish also showed strong banquet-kitchen fundamentals. The pork tendon had clearly been oil-expanded beforehand, giving it that proper soft and elastic texture instead of rubbery chewiness. The sea cucumber still retained bite and structure. The Singapore-style rice noodles and scallop egg white fried rice were textbook Cantonese banquet staples. The rice noodles stayed dry and separated while still carrying wok aroma and oil fragrance. The scallop egg white fried rice looked simple, but every grain remained distinct and lightly coated without clumping together. That level of consistency under volume is difficult. Even the red bean dessert soup at the end was handled carefully. The red beans still held their shape instead of dissolving into paste, while the sago remained fully intact and translucent. Most restaurants stop caring once dessert leaves the kitchen. Fusion Delight clearly does not. And honestly, that may be the best way to describe this restaurant overall. Fusion Delight is not trying to be trendy. It is not trying to become minimalist fine dining. It is not trying to be social-media bait. This is a high-volume Chinese banquet restaurant operating with old-school Cantonese production discipline. Hot food arrives hot. Fried dishes stay crisp. Wok hei survives peak hours. Plating still looks intentional during a packed dinner service. That kind of consistency is harder than people think. And somehow, inside a giant purple dining room filled wall-to-wall with families, they make it work. - Dr. C Purple room approved. Wok heat calibrated. Banquet discipline detected. Consistency at scale = correct.
Wow they are so efficient for seating a line of 100 people (or more) at opening time on the weekend. I kid you not, this place has a lonnnnnnnnggggggg line. Am i going to get in? I got there 10 mins till opening and I was already maybe 70th in line. surprised how they managed all that SUPER fast. table for you, table for you, table FOR YOU! there are XLARGE tables too, like my group was about 15 people and we all seated comfortably and spaced out. lots of dim sum choices. some are super cute for kids like a mango ducky jello.
A friend invited us to Dim Sum at Fusion Delight. They open at 11am and we arrived at 10:40, way too early. We sat in the van and chatted for a bit until 5 minutes before scheduled opening. They were already open for guests, so we were able to enter as soon as we walked across the parking lot. As we entered, we were greeted and asked how many in our group and what type of tea would we like. There were 3 of us and we were guided to a table in the middle of the restaurant. There was an electronic ordering pad on the table, so we passed it around and selected some of our favorite dishes. We later saw other tables using paper ordering sheets which I think I would have preferred. What'd we order? Plenty! Pea Sprouts with Fungus - 3 - Not one of my favorites but it appeared to be okay. Rice Noodle Rolls in XO Sauce x 2 - 5 - Yes, we got two orders! Tons of flavor; tender noodles; great chew. Salt & Pepper Tofu - 3 - Good tofu; not so much salt nor pepper. Pan Fried Country Style Lotus Root with Minced Fish - 3 - first time that I've had Lotus Root "sandwiches" Rice Noodle Roll (Beef) - 4 - If the sweet soy had been sweeter, it could have been a 5. Chicken Feet with Black Bean Sauce - 3 - met but did not exceed the standard and I am a Chicken Feet FREAK! Pork Dumpling with Peanuts - 4 - Was Decent Dried Scallop & Pea Sprout Dumplings - 3 - There's Dried Scallop in here? Pan Fried Green Peppers - 5 - These non-spicy peppers were stuffed with shrimp paste and then doused in black bean sauce. Yumm! Siu Mai w/ Shrimp - 5 - Nice and meaty. Sugar Donuts - 4 - On point! There were a couple of items that we ate before I remembered to take pictures of them. Ooops! Would I go again? Yes.
Can't believe I haven't left a review for FD since I come here pretty regularly! Even on weekdays the parking is tough cos it's so busy. But luckily the mall lot is big so you might just have to walk a bit. The wait is the most challenging thing here. Weekends are near impossible. Even week day lunches are tough. And you gotta book them way out for Chinese new year! Food is always very good and service is very efficient. The sea bass is a must here, I also like all their noodle dishes. And for dim sum, they are really one of the best in SL and surrounding areas. Can't go wrong. Inside always looks nice and clean. Great vibe for big family dinners.
We came on a weekend for dimsum and skate for over an hour. The inside is bright and grand, seating is comfortable. Service was on the slower side as they do get quite busy. Dim sum was not bad but also not exceptional. Standard for a dim sum place but doesn't stand out taking into account of the price.
Such a yummy time! The staff is quite attentive. Our empty dishes were taken away almost instantly and your hot water pot was never empty for long. Our party of 5 was able to snag a tallness at opening and place our order in early. Everything came out hot and delicious. My favorites being the shrimp dumplings. The filling is quite large and the dumpling skin is quite sturdy. You're able to grab one without it falling out or ripping. The wrapped is also isn't over rubbery, it was a happy surprise to find a yummy texture! Another hit was the cha sui gok, flaky pastry dough with a savory bbq pork filling. Normally my favorite at yum cha is the bbq pork buns with a pineapple crust top but this was perfection as well! Would recommend the steamed dumplings as well as the chicken feet! Meaty and piping hot :)
My family and I hadn't had this place since 2017. Since then, they have undergone a huge remodel and the place is far brighter and their menus are upgraded. Meanwhile, it was my partner and his family's first time trying this restaurant. Service was quite rough for a Monday dinner. The restaurant was 1/3rd filled but they took a while to check in with us and take our orders. It was tough to get the attention of a server and after someone helped us, he called for someone else. When the second person came, I told her I was ready to order and then there was another wait for the third person who would finally take our order. I had already written out the 6 dishes we were planning to order for the group and they seemed to be missing several veggies, so all the meat dishes seemed to only be cooked with string beans as that was all they had. That eliminated 3 of the dishes I wanted to order. Pea sprouts 5/5, perfectly stir fried. So simple, yet so delicious steamed chicken with black fungus 4/5 - Delicious but it did not come with black fungus... they didn't tell us that and so the dish arrived with just meat... confused as to why we weren't informed and it was still the same price when it's missing a vital part of the dish! stir fried green beans with black cod 5/5 - very well made! the fish was so deep fried beef chow fun 5/5 - well made and standard chef fried rice - also well made and standard Outside of them missing several vegetables and ingredients in their dishes and the slow service; the food and way it's cooked has certainly skyrocketed in quality!
The food is fine, but the wait time is crazy and not worth it. For so far north of the east bay, I'm sure the food is nice, but why was our wait 2 hours! We had a larger party of 9, but we waited from 12:30 until 2:30. It was a Saturday during winter break, so maybe during other months they would have a shorter wait? We had to get some chicken from Safeway to deal. Porridge and dessert egg buns were good, but overall other food was not special enough.
We order lobster with noodles and it was perfect. The lobster cooked perfect and the noodle andante. The service was great with Yen and Sue
We had a great meal here! The food was fresh, flavorful, and served hot. Every dish we ordered was well prepared, especially the seafood and clay pot dishes. The portions were generous, and the ingredients tasted fresh. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the service was quick even though the restaurant was busy. We'll definitely be back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Cantonese food.

我本来打算给10%的小费，因为上菜太慢了......而且服务也没好到那种程度。后来，他们的经理过来跟我们说小费太少了，我们要求增加到40美元，他说通常大家都会给这么多，最少也要18%。难道小费不应该是顾客感觉好的吗？为什么感觉像是必须给的？最后我们还是给了30美元，就像上面提到的那样。再说一遍，小费应该由我们自己决定。 I was going to give 10% tips, because the dishes came too slow... and the service isn't as good as that much. later on, their manager came to us and said the tips are too less, asked to increase to $40, he said usually people leave that much, the least 18%. Isn't the tip always based on how the customer feels??? Why did it look like required? We finally leave a $30 as the recipient above. Again, TIPS ARE BASED ON US. read more

My family of 6 came here last Sunday morning. The first weekend of CNY. Wow was it packed! We arrived at 9:50am. Opening is at 10am and there was a HUGE line out the door. As I was walking up, a gentleman was running to get in line. A female from the left saw him running so she started running too. I was afraid we were not going to get seated during the first round, but we did! The restaurant is very big! They have a second room to the right with not as nice decor as the main room, but that is okay. The entire restaurant was became fully packed with hungry asians and there were still people outside waiting. For how busy it was, service was great!! We marked what we wanted and gave the order slip to a waiter. We got tea quickly. I saw them refilling our tea several times. We NEVER had to ask. We were SHOCKED with how quickly the food came out. The chefs must have came super early and they were well prepared with the mad rush of people. The food was nice and hot and fresh. Did not miss out on the quality on majority of the items. I really enjoyed the black peppers spare ribs (not a usual item at dimsum places). Of course I liked my rice noodles with beef and shrimp, shrimp dumplings, pork dumplings, chicken feet. We ordered two different cow intestines and they had a really nice presentation with the Ying and Yang dishes. My brother said the taste of one of them was only okay though. Pricing of the dishes were a bit more expensive than usual dimsum places. This was my first time eating here, but I would definitely come back. I am still impressed with their service on such a busy day. They were all so friendly too and did not show their stress. When we left at 11:40am, the lobby was packed and a lot of people outside as well waiting for a table. read more
Fusion Delight will have all your dim sum staples at a decent price for the area (good value!). Highlights include the duck, which was juicy and flavorful. We arrived at the tail-end of the brunch hour and left feeling very full. 3.5/5 for value of dine-in dim sum in the area. Food (3/5). The rest of what we ordered was either as we'd expect from other local dim sum/takeout box restaurants or less flavorful than hoped (particularly the spare ribs). Service (3/5). Food came out quickly, but we found ourselves asking for basic items that should have otherwise been provided with each dish or already at the table (standard at other dim sum restaurants, big or small). The taro cake arrived without sauce, and no spoons were provided for the fried rice nor the xiao long bao. It was likely a busy morning, but the staff member who serviced us the most seemed to ignore us a couple times before someone else would assist. Otherwise, it's a large establishment that can accommodate large parties easily. They do not take reservations for parties fewer than 8. Seems like the wait times can get long, as I called in and was told to expect a 50-minute wait around 1PM on a Saturday only to find out that we were the next party to be seated within 10 minutes upon arrival. Almost turned around due to the phone call alone, but at the end, I do not regret sticking around. read more

Shocked that Fusion Delight has such a low overall rating! It is packeddddd for dim sum on the weekends. Like an hr wait if you go at 11:30, and there was still a line when we left around 1:30! I think that's a testament to how good the food is. They have all the staples but also a lot of specialty items like a spicy fried haw gao, a fried shrimp cherng fun with peanut sauce, and a diff type of seasoned beef tripe. All the food is super tasty! Esp the beef cherng fun - my fave - super soft and smooth, melt in your mouth with good cilantro flavor. Great place the spend a weekend morning with fam. read more

If you come here on a weekend for lunch, be prepared to wait a while! The dim sum at lunch and the plates at dinner are all good. I don't think I've had a dish I don't like here. More recently, I went here for dinner and the beef short rib is a giant rib with a delicious sauce. It's pricey but delicious! The double egg fried rice is one of my fave dishes here. It has salted fish and it's so good. The restaurant's homemade chili sauce (they sell it in jars labeled as XO sauce) mixed with the fried rice is so good. Their homemade sauce has a little bit of fermented bean flavor which makes it unique and the spice level is not too hot. Service is very quick. read more
We reserved two tables and ordered from their party menu on Christmas Eve and everything was set up by the time we got there. Service was nice, they poured our soup for us, cleared out dirty plates frequently and brought out drinks and entrees in a timely fashion. They would also move the big plates of food into smaller plates to fit new entrees onto our table. The food was also tasty but nothing too special or to die for, my favorite dish was the sashimi platter - I definitely ate the salmon the most as it felt very fresh. The lobster and crab were cooked and seasoned well, I was also able to remove the meat very easily. read more

Back to update: Tried the lobster sashimi! Unfortunately it wasn't as good as the geoduck, but the presentation was great. I believe the wonder actually came out with the raw lobster in hand to show us the sheer size of it - Amusing. When we came, there were not one, but two wedding parties going on. They still seated us and the rest of the restaurant was actually packed (and we came earlier at around 5pm.) The slideshow from one of the weddings actually showed from the TV near us, and every other casual diner was looking as well. Good to know they host such big events, and even two at the same time! As expected, lobster was priceyyyyy. But, it was better cooked here than raw. The sashimi just didn't have a lot of actual flavor to it, just texture. Duck tongue: 5/5 Just one of our faves! Tasty and loved the crunch. Lobster Noodles: 4/5, good but when it was taken home, I threw it on the pan with some butter and garlic just for some extra flavor. Lobster was still yummy the day after! Sweet and Sour Spare Ribs (?): 4/5 good but filling for sure. Ate like 3 of these and they're huge. Service was still up to par. Quick and attentive even with how many customers there were. Still, try to make a reservation, even if there are no weddings planned. read more

Get there super early on the weekend. They open at 10 but people always in line prior. I got there 1010 and had to wait 40 min. The place is really large for gathering and can host events like birthday and wedding- which they did had after we left. We ordered way too much food to be honest lol. The good: most of the dishes with a few exceptions The bad: the spring roll, chicken feet, tripe. Also the seafood wasn't that great despite they have live fish in tanks. read more
We ordered a variety of dim sum dishes, congee with Chinese doughnut, short ribs, and No Mai Gai, and every single item exceeded expectations. The dim sum came out fresh, hot, and bursting with flavor - truly some of the best I've had in the East Bay. The congee was perfectly smooth and comforting, complemented by the crispy Chinese doughnut for the ultimate texture contrast. The short ribs were tender and deliciously marinated, and the No Mai Gai (sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaves) was just the right balance of savory and fragrant. The service was speedy; the food came out quick! The place was full but that adds to a great dim sum experience! read more

The food is absolutely incredible and breathtaking with the service is really great atmosphere. I have been there too many times I can't remember so thanks to everyone who works there they did a fantastic job. read more
The food here is phenomenal! A standout was the CRISPY RICE NOODLE ROLL! The name doesn't do it justice, it's a tempura shrimp, wrapped in colored rice dough, then drizzled with a peanut sauce... it's an 11/10 (aka a must order) But pretty much everything is tasty and made fresh to order. The downsides are that the service is very mediocre and the tea isn't that great... it's also very loud in here. But honestly the unique take they have on their dim sum and chinese dishes is more than worth it! This is a new goto for me! Be prepared to wait ~30min for a spot. While waiting, you can grab a menu and get your order ready so once you're seated, you can put in your order. read more
I don't quite understand their sub-3 average rating, but I rate the food here 5-stars hands down. I've come for dim sum a few times with family and they've consistently been one of the better dim sum places in the Bay, and at a reasonable price for being the Bay. The dim sum is fresh (hot coming out) and authentic; the chef's specials are also pretty good. I loved the braised eggplant dish, the best I've had! Service is pretty typical for a Chinese restaurant, and I care a lot more about the food than I do for service typically. read more
Quick take: weekday dining I'm not sure how crazy busy this place gets on the weekend. Restaurant is big and spacious with nice chandeliers. Service was okay even comparing to service at other dim sum restaurants. Our tea was too concentrated but they wouldn't give us a pot of hot water. Instead the waiter brought out a glass of hot water. He told us we can't have another pot at our table. Just bizarre. Food is pretty standard and we didn't order anything special. read more

The best Chinese restaurant in SL! Will definitely try more different dishes !love their seafood cooking and soup! read more
First time here. Family recommended this place despite the bad reviews here. The green bean and the black cod was the best-the beans were lightly crunchy while the lightly fried black cod was perfectly crispy and seasoned. The bbq pork puff and tripe were just ok-wouldn't order again. Tripe was bland and pork puff layers were greasy and heavy. The sticky rice had good flavor with lots of salted egg and pork chunks. The beef stew and rice noodle had a savory and rich star anise and licorice flavor-similar to Hing Lung in San Bruno/SF. Lunch time was packed with the entire front area full of patrons-so I'd come early if you come here on a weekend. There were definitely some rude people trying to cut in line, but we waited maybe 30 min. read more
4/2024 Attended a wedding that was held here. Never been here before - ample parking as it's part of a shopping strip. Service was hit or miss, we asked for an ice refill and the waiter took our bucket and never returned. We had to ask someone else for ice and he came back with it filled 1/2 way for a table of 10 people. LOL What can you do but accept! Food was ok. Sashimi was a bit fishy. Few other courses were served but people digged in before I snapped a picture! When there is alcohol involved, people don't always let the phone eat first Happy Friday!!! read more
Food was so oily!!! Our eyes were more hungry than our stomachs cuz we ordered a lot but halfway thru the meal I legit couldn't eat anymore cuz I started to feel sick. I feel like this only happens at dimsum restaurants lol. But when food is literally so oily you get slightly nauseous and don't want to eat anymore. Do you know what I mean? Think this place is over hyped. And theres a lot of random stuff on the menu that isn't particularly good but just there for the "appeal" factor. Like the fried "lychee" that is just a shrimp ball coated in toasted rice. Not worth the line and price imo. read more
This place is so underrated. So far I have been here twice, most recently on Memorial Day. They were definitely packed but we reserved a table for four on the DInfo app that they use and they were able to get our table pretty quickly when we arrived (probably around 10 minutes) We ordered most of the dimsum staples, hargow, siu mai, the mushroom rice noodles, the chicken feet and pork rib combo, and the sugar donuts. All of them were quite good, except one complaint about the hargow had a bit of a powdery tasting filling that was different from the first time we went. One of the favorite dishes we ordered was the XO sauce rice noodles. The total for all the dishes came out to about $30 per person. Note, the service charge WAS included on the bill. Overall I would still recommend coming here! read more
Double check your receipts and don't double tip! They automatically add a 18% This is one of those places that treat you like crap, but for the most part have great dim sum. Like you gotta be a pretty aggressive Asian to match their lack of service to make up for it. Wave your hand and stare them down for the bill, for tea bill, for chili paste, etc. We've been here extensively, my family, friends, and relatives, for dim sum, dinners and even weddings. The general overview of it: (1) This place gets packed! Like get here when they open or get here 2 hours after. Don't go inbetween or you'll wait from 1-2 hours for a table. (2) They don't do reservations for dim sum(morning), but they do for dinner. For holidays, book weeks in advance, or you won't get a spot. (3) We found their dim sum to be better than dinner. Dinner, the meat was not fresh enough for my mom's taste. But their fried rice and stir fry noodles are great. Lots of wok hay which is why we usually come here. (4) Very Chinese based and most workers speak very hood Cantonese/mandarin, but not so much English. Fortunately you order off an IPad, so you don't really have to interact if you don't speak chinese. Our favorite dim sum items: - Salted egg yolk pumpkin(my fav) - Shui mai(my sister swears it's the best in the Bay Area, it's been here favorite dim sum item to eat since she was a kid) - clay pot fried rice - beef chow fun These are the ones we almost always get when we come here, and we'll rotate other items. This place is generally more expensive than other dim sum places, but stress free about if we'll get good dim sum. The tea is also better here than other places. Also cleaner and well decorated compared to other places. read more
4.28 stars for the food! 2.88 stars for the service, but you don't go to a dim sum spot for the service! Just expect them to seat you according to how busy it is (DON'T COME ON A HOLIDAY, LUNAR NEW YEAR, or PRIME TIME DURING A WEEKEND when the place is unbearably busy). Do expect them to bring you your order in a timely fashion on less busy days. The dining area is a Chinese banquet hall so the ambiance is pretty fancy with GINORMOUS flat screen TVs and elegant chandeliers. Don't expect staff to go above and beyond because that's just not how dim sum places work. Fusion Delight is my go-to spot whenever I take my mom out for dim sum, and I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a legit fried rice and some unique and tasty dim sum items that other spots don't have. First off, as a FRIED RICE freak, I LOVE their "Classic Special Fried Rice in Claypot" ($20.95): this fried rice has savory morsels of seafood, tobiko roe, golden threads of egg, scallions and cilantro, and it is my FAVORITE fried rice in the East Bay area, besides my own of course! I will always order this fried rice each time I go! Boiled Beef Tripe in Premium Broth: tripe is a staple dim sum dish my mom and I usually get. This one has very subtle flavor, not too salty, but tastes fresh and the chewy bounciness of the tripe is definitely an acquired texture, but I enjoy it! May skip next time and try some more of their other unique items that I didn't try this time. Crispy Fish Buns: more like fancy fried fish sliders. The fish, cucumber, kewpie-like mayo, and cabbage were tasty, but the bun/bread was dense and heavier than the fish itself. If it were lighter, softer, and less bready, it would be higher on my enjoyment scale. Would not get again. Deep fried shrimp with lychee: had not seen this item before. Pretty to look at, taste was basically fried shrimp balls with a unique outer crispy coating. The lychee taste didn't stand out, but they sure look like fried lychee spheres! I'd get this again to impress friends! Deep fried tofu skin wrap with salad: this was definitely new! The crispy tofu wrapped combination of what I believe is shrimp, pork, and vegetables, was par for the course as far as tofu skin aka bean curd fried dim sum goes. It sure looks nice dangling on the skewer over a bed of keypie dressed salad with cherry tomatoes and tobiko roe. I'd get this again to impress friends! Dumplings with mixed mushrooms and truffle: these were legit good. The truffle taste was on point and satisfied my high expectations for what truffle should taste like. I'd safely guess that there aren't real Italian truffles in the dumplings and instead, they use truffle oil. But it is a well prepared mushroom filling (and possibly pork??) in a sticky steamed dumpling skin. I'd get this again for sure. Pan fried country style lotus root with minced fish: I always get this because I love lotus root! The stuffing is likely more than just fish, and I'd wager good money it's pork and some water chestnut. Delish and would get again! The tea I usually order with my mom is Jasmine (香片 or 茉莉花茶). $1.50 to $2 tea charge per person depending on the kind of tea. Prices for each dim sum dish depends on the size and category (L, XL, K). Our total tab was about $102 for 6 dim sum items and one large fried rice. NOTE: THE RESTAURANT AUTOMATICALLY CHARGES A SERVICE CHARGE of 15% no matter your party size. Double check before you add your own gratuity, unless you are extra generous! read more
Came here for dinner with extended family. Food, ambiance, and service were all great. Five stars! First of all, the space is huge! Pleasantly surprised to find such a beautiful and well decorated spot in San Leandro. Love the epic TV sizes and the lotus flower chandeliers that are over six feet long! Food was impressive. Plating was gorgeous, definitely not the average Chinese restaurant. Felt very celebratory and the food was delicious. read more
I came here on a Sunday morning for dim sum with a party of 5. This restaurant is located inside the Greenhouse plaza so parking can be hard during the weekend. The baked dishes that we ordered were cold - almost as if it was left over from the day before. The spicy wontons were really good though. The service was super slow. We ordered a total of 15 different dishes (2 never ended up coming out but we were charged for it anyways). There is an automatic 18% tip so double check your receipts! This restaurant is definitely overpriced compared to the dim sum restaurants in the area. read more
My recent Labor Day getaway to NorCal was short and not much time for leisure. Many good friends and classmates have moved to California. It was ideal to meet up with them but time was a factor. After text messages going back and forth, 6 of us wanted to meet for brunch but securing a reservation on a major holiday few days prior presented a challenge. Until someone suggested dim sum and Fusion Delight (FD) was suggested. Located in a huge shopping center in San Leandro on Lewelling Blvd, FD is quite a large Chinese restaurant serving authentic Cantonese cuisine with a modern flair. They have large tanks of live seafood, including Alaskan king crabs - - so impressive. Their menu is quite extensive but our plans were to have dim sum. They open at 1030am weekdays and we agreed on meeting at 11am. I was one of the first to arrive in our group and was impressed with the huge crowd of people waiting for tables. In my books that was a promising sign of a reputable restaurant. To be frank, I was a little hesitant when I noticed an average of 2.8 stars out of 877 reviews but I've been to many Chinese restaurants and even worked at them before in my younger years so I don't set high expectations on customer service. Delicious food and a clean venue to spend quality time with friends are key. We waited for about 50min for a table of 6 and was escorted to a round table where we could select our tea. You are given a sheet of paper and pen where you mark down your food order. I asked my friends what they wanted to eat and was pretty much left the task to select. After submitting our order sheet, it didn't take that long for food to be delivered to us. VERDICT: I found FD to be indeed traditional Cantonese cuisine with a modern touch to it. The food was presented beautifully and the portions were decent. My personal favorites were the chicken feet and steamed shrimp cheung funn rolls. The glutinous rice in lotus leaf wrap, har gao and siu mai were also tasty. We witnessed the pumpkin jin dui at other tables so we just had to try them. Not only were they delicious and crispy, they were not oily and it kept its circular shape even after the staff cut them in halves. The gon lo mein (fried noodles) was also notable with its smoky wok hei flavor. Service was above average in my books. Staff were attentive in refilling out tea pots, delivering iced water when we requested for them; clearing dishes, and even checked in on us. We sat at our table until their closing time of 3pm and the staff didn't attempt to rush us out to flip the table. FD indeed in a popular restaurant in San Leandro where I can see why so many people wait for a table. Overall, a very pleasant first experience at FD where I'd be game for a return visit. I need to pay a visit to my uncles who live in Oakland in the near future and will suggest coming to FD. My experience was that good. read more

Food deserves a four star. I really liked the tie guan yin tea here-- don't drink so much if you're sensitive to caffeine! Came here at 12 and there's a wait of ~15-20mins for a table for 3. The hostess at the front was friendly but there was this one staff who wasn't the hostess but was responsible for the seating had a horrible attitude when they messed up our seatings. The beef chow foon was average, the pork tripe was generous in portion, tasted ok but lacked texture, steamed beef rice roll and fun Guo were good. I liked their chili sauce(per request).If I lower my personal bar for dim sum, this would be a decent place for dimsum. I mean, overall no complaints about the food here. Sadly they forgot one of our orders(fried dough with sugar). When we asked the first time about the order the staff (without checking) said the kitchen was making it. We waited for a while and checked with the staff again then he said the kitchen forgot about the order (?) . I understand about the mistake but with the bad attitude we experienced even BEFORE we were seated for food, we would not coming back. Honestly I think this place needs better management as I feel that the operation is messy, chaotic and ruleless, but I don't think this place needs great yelp reviews since many of their customers are loyal diners read more

A very busy Cantonese restaurant for lunch, if you are arrive after 11am, you may need to wait for more than a hour to get a seat. Taste and product are very good, with many selections ， also price is not cheap read more

Does the restaurant take apple pay now?
Is the 15% service charge mandatory for parties of 2 people?
Do not know but there was a mandatory 18% service fee for 4 people. Plus the sales tax is based on the food and mandatory service fee.
Do they have a dinner menu online? Most the pics on Yelp show the dim sum menu. Thanks!
Yes they do! It’s on their website: https://www.fusiondelight.net/dinner-menu
Are the hours posted the most updated?
Don't know. I recall the last time I looked at their sign, it was on the day they were closed. On Tuesdays, other than that, I don't know how updated their posted business hours are.
Is the cost of the specialty dinners per person or for the entire spread? I saw some menus ranging from $800-$1100 and i don't understand the characters to decipher what they mean.

When does dim sum end?
I think around 2ish when they close for their afternoon break.
What is the app for reserving?
I don't think they uses the app for reserving tables yet! But you can call the restaurant for reservations. The phone number is (510) 895-1818.
How much does it cost to eat dim sum?
It depends on how many are in your party and appetite. If you are familiar with dishes, you will know what to order. If you are new, it will be a hit or miss for you. Dim sum are small dishes.…
We're interested coming in this Friday....do we need reservations ( around 5:30pm for 4 ?) and do you have menu that we can browse?
I called today and asked. They only took reservation for a party of 8 or more.
