Amazing food and service, Food came fast and hot while tasting like authentic dim sum

Food was great and service was fast! We are vegetarian and was able to get several dishes on the menu. Spring rolls, chow fun, cucumber, tofu dish, cilantro rice roll were all delicious. It's a large place, they say the largest in the world. I heard it used to be a pharmacy grocery store before. They also have a lot of private rooms for larger groups which is nice. Their bathrooms could be cleaner, and there's always a long line. So be prepared. read more

You ever feel unwelcome and paid $200 for cold uncooked food? Thats what happened here. Service is horrible. We had to ask for water 6 times and still didn't get any until the bill came. God forbid one of us started choking on the raw dumplings we bit into. I will never again be coming back and would rather eat at a hole in the wall. I don't care how nice their chandeliers are. The service at this location is absolutely horrible. Lipstick on a pig. We were the only Filipinos in the restaurant and the only ones who got our food super late. And didn't receive any kind of service. To the point where I had to get up and walk to the counter to ask for water, to-go boxes and our bill. As I look over the waiter I ask water for 3 times was boxing food up for her other customers: Luckily I checked the bill because they forgot to remove the uncooked food they took back. So disappointed. On top of that they had the audacity to automatically add on 18% gratuity for service we did not receive. read more

Be mindful that in the weekend it is a popular place for weddings. This review is purely for its availability on a normal Saturday night. I went in around 6:30pm, there was a price 75 tables wedding in the large main room. So every dining guest was diverted to the smaller cafe inside its restaurant. This was ok but maybe next time put a nice sign up the front. Wait for 45 mins or so already and you see people walking out. But they let another party in first. Cannot review the food since I did not get to go inside. I asked if/when we would be seated, the answer was soon. They then mentioned the kitchen might be slow too, food might come out slowly. Parking was so difficult to find. Maybe also because of the wedding party. Will try again but definitely not for dinner on the weekends. read more

First time trying out HL. We family and I met a good friend for lunch. They ordered rice(large portion), shrimp dumplings, noodles. All were good. We definitely planned to come back to try their other items. Food came out pretty quickly. The restaurant is pretty big. You can host events/parties. It's clean and has a huge screen on one of the walls. It reminded us of being in a casino. Plenty of parking as well. read more

HL Peninsula - Dim Sum Near Me - Castro Valley, California

Today I came here with a friend to try this newly opened Hong Kong-style dim sum restaurant. My friend is from Guangzhou and is very particular about food, so I was curious to hear his opinion. Personally, I thought the dim sum was pretty good. The dishes I usually order--shrimp dumplings (har gow), rice noodle rolls (cheung fun), and pan-fried turnip cake, all tasted quite decent. My friend mentioned that the shrimp dumplings didn't contain bamboo shoots, which made them feel a bit less authentic. As for me, I really liked the beef brisket and radish soup. The broth was rich and flavorful, but the radish wasn't cooked long enough and was still a little too firm. Overall, the service was excellent, and the restaurant was spacious, clean, and comfortable. I would definitely recommend giving this place a try. 今天跟我朋友一起來光顧這家新開的港式飲茶，我朋友是一個廣州人，對飲食也非常講究的人。我個人覺得這家店的點心還不錯，像是我最基本會點的蝦餃、腸粉、蘿蔔糕，我都覺得還行。我的朋友說蝦餃沒有放筍子在裡面有一點不正宗，我個人覺得它的蘿蔔牛腩湯，很濃郁，但是蘿蔔沒有燉爛，有點硬。其他方面，服務非常的好，環境又大又乾淨，我還是挺推薦給各位的。 read more

If you haven't been to HL Restaurant, you need to try it at least once. It is a huge restaurant and packed. Even with the size and number of customers, the service was pretty good. We had to ask a couple of times for a couple things but given how busy they were it wasn't a point of contention. I thought it was acceptable because we did get what we wanted with just a little delay. A couple of good friends took us for Dim Sum and we ordered a variety of items. High Tower Fried Pancake Fried Red Wine Oysters Sui mai Har Gow Fried Shrimp Rangoon XLB Dumplings Baked BBQ Bao Baked Creamy Custard Bao Crispy Roasted Squab Chilled Vegetarian Bean Curd Skin Shrimp rice noodle roll Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce Mango piggy pudding Chocolate goat pudding The presentation of the Dim Sum is really nice, we liked the fried oysters, Chinese broccoli, char sui bao, rice noodles with shrimp and the baked creamy custard bao. Our least favorite was the squab (which is hard to cook because it dries out easily) and the XLB dumplings which ours didn't have broth in one and just a little broth in a couple others. HL is good for large gatherings and families whether there are just two of you or 30 of you. I would go once in awhile with friends. I really want to try the Express take-out. The prices looked reasonable and the food looked good. read more

Very nostalgic - this place reminds me of many dim sum places I went to as a child. Not mind-blowing quality (this is not like Dragon Beaux, and I still rank Koi Palace above this place too) but for the price you get really solid dim sum. The service also reminds me of what I experienced as a child - efficient! The premises are also very impressive - such a huge restaurant and really amazing collection of alcohol decorating the walls, and extremely solid chairs to sit in, and clean and spacious!! They also have some fun specials. My husband and I tried the special Tianjin black sesame twist and it was HUGE! It was a fun novelty though I likely wouldn't get it again; taste was just ok. Again, very solid dim sum place and grateful to have such a solid place close by! read more

Came here for father's day dim sum and arrived around 11:45. Parking was tough so our son dropped us off while we went in to grab a number. They have a cool system where once you get the number you can see how many people r waiting for tables for various party sizes. It's a huge place so she said the wait would be about half an hour but it was really faster than that. It looked intimating though cuz there were soooo many people waiting. The food was okay and the service was bad. We waited quite a while to be asked what kind of tea we wanted and had to flag someone down for anything we needed. Maybe service is bad because there is an automatic 16% tip added to your bill. All the dim sum prices were considered mainly "large". Bill came to over $100 for the 3 of us. The noodle dish was large for the price though but the dim sum was meh. Got the high tower fried pancake cuz it looked like the ghost from pac man but it was really just fried and a bit greasy with no real taste. Maybe if you closed your eyes you can convince yourself it tasted a little like a churro. The place was noisy and tons of screens allowed you to watch the fifa soccer games. If you don't want to talk to your party come here where it's noisy and you can watch tv instead of talk! read more

Had dim sum with my family at HL Peninsula, and it had been such a long time since I last had dim sum that this meal reminded me how good dim sum can be! My aunt and uncle handled all the ordering, and everything that came out was tasty. There was a great variety of dishes, and I enjoyed pretty much everything we tried. The restaurant is huge, with lots of seating and large screens throughout the dining room, making it a fun spot for a family gathering. Overall, it was a solid dim sum experience and a nice reminder of how much I enjoy this type of food. I'd come back again with family. read more

HL Peninsula - Vibe - Dim Sum Near Me - Castro Valley, California

Tried this enormous dim sum restaurant that everyone seems to be talking about. The place is huge, with giant TV screens and countless tables, yet it still felt crowded initially. Customer service was okay. We ordered the prawns with wasabi-lime mayonnaise 10/10, pan-seared Australian Wagyu beef with teriyaki sauce, 10/10, flavored fried Chilean sea bass 6/10, Peninsula fried rice 5/10. They were bit dry. The portions were huge, and the meat quality was impressive, although the bill adds up quickly. One thing to note: their lunch and dinner menus are completely different, so make sure you're visiting at the right time if there's something specific you want to try. The only disappointment was dessert. When we asked for the dessert menu, we were told they were closing and would no longer be serving desserts. It would have been nice to get a heads-up earlier. Overall, it was a good experience, and I'm glad we finally checked it out to see what all the hype was about. read more

Ambiance - this place is huge. It looks clean and classy Service - we were seated immediately. We were given an order form which was quite hard to decipher. The list was long but somehow, we managed to order the right stuff Food - everything we ordered were fresh and delicious. The hargow and shumai here were probably one of the best I've had. The hargow was packed with shrimp and the shumai was moist and large. My favorite though were the bbq pork buns. These were warm and pillowy. I was already craving them even before we finished lunch. We ordered crab fried rice, gai lan, shrimp noodle, sticky rice and many more dishes. We loved them all. read more

Impressive number of tables and TVs, including many extra private rooms. We went for dim sum on my birthday, and it was on World Cup finals Sunday. Although the ambiance and service was very good (including offering to play Happy Birthday to me on the sound system and one of the TVs) and they offer take out from bakery, too, the food overall didn't impress me. There were some unique dishes that I haven't seen elsewhere but many of the courses lacked flavor or just weren't memorable. Glad i tried it but wouldn't go out of my way to come all the way back to Castro Valley just for dim sum here. read more

The place is huge! and I want to let you know that there are so many rooms you can rent for special occasions. There are plenty of parking places. We went at around 11am and we were seated right away. Out of our order, what stood out was the durian pastry, which was served warm on the inside with plenty of fruits, and deliciously crunchy on the outside. The beef with noodles dish on sizzling hot pot style warmer, also had the flavor that will keep you wanting more and more. The dimsum small dishes are just ok in my opinion, but the beautiful decorations throughout the place made up for this wonderful dining experience. read more

The HL Peninsula Chinese Restaurant empire just continues to grow with not only their largest restaurant yet, but also the largest Cantonese restaurant in all of North America! And yes, it is located on the main thoroughfare of a small but quaint city of Castro Valley, California no less! Opened in the fall of 2025 to considerable fanfare, HL Peninsula transformed a longtime Rite Aid location into one of the Peninsula's largest Cantonese dining destinations. The "HL" stands for Hoi Luen, the English translation of the restaurant group's original Chinese name. Founded by Chef Li Yongzhou, the H.L. Peninsula Catering Group has built a strong reputation for its Cantonese cuisine and dim sum, growing from its original South San Francisco location into a beloved local institution with multiple outposts. Having previously dined at both the South San Francisco and Burlingame locations, I knew this newest venture would be worth the visit. The challenge wasn't deciding whether to go, it was finding the right time to experience it, ideally when the crowds had subsided and the service, which understandably faced some growing pains after opening, had settled into a smoother rhythm. Given the size of the restaurant and the excitement surrounding its debut, expectations were understandably high. A group of two diners and myself decided to make a go of it on a recent Saturday morning for a brunch time visit. With both their parking lot and dining room being so massive, we weren't sure how many people would actually be here waiting in line. Thankfully upon entry, there was no wait at all, as they have a massive indoor waiting hall near their front desk and it too was empty as our table for three was sat immediately. With futbol playing on no fewer than six floor to ceiling wall television screens the atmosphere was lively at this location of HL Peninsula to say the least as almost eight months in, they are still thriving here, but I have to admit I thought everything would be more focused as they were sadly still having service issues which in turn would affect the quality of food that we would still enjoy on this initial visit. Ordering during the lunch hour is actually easy at HL Peninsula especially if you speak and read Chinese, but even if you do not, you can fake it till you make it, as many dishes on their lunch menu have images to go right along their names. Diners fill out their own order form meaning you either place a check mark or number in the space provided for the menu item you want to order. The menu at this location of HL Peninsula is separated into categories including their Dishes of the Day, Special Recommendation, Exquisite Seafood, Steamer, Street Favorite, Bakery, Roaster, Rice Noodle Rolls, Congee, Kitchen, Rice & Noodle, Dessert, and their Teas. As fans of their cuisine, we wanted to order a wide variety of dishes, but didn't want to break the bank with the food we were ordering. We noticed that prices at this location were slightly higher than their original location in South San Francisco, so it made us cautious on what to order overall. We always tend to order their Beef Chow Fun Dry Style from their Rice & Noodle section, and at 23 dollars this was in line with what we were expecting as it was a flavorful and truly fulfilling entrée. Instead of traditional chow mein noodles, we ordered their Signature Fried Rice Noodles which had a nice variety of seafood, scrambled egg bits, red and green onions. This was a perfectly tasty and affordable option on their Daily Specials menu that was only listed in Chinese so for those who do not know how to read Chinese it is best to ask your server. We also ordered their Shrimp Dumplings topped with fish roe, Beef & Yellow Chive Rice Noodle Rolls, and Baked Egg Yolk Lava Baos to complete our meal. It should be noted that here at HL Peninsula they do charge for teas and they even charge for hot water, so budget conscious diners should prepare to pay for anything you drink upon visiting. The service remains spotty at HL Peninsula, as it was hard to flag down any dining captain, whose sole job should be to oversee their section of tables, and our plates were brought out in an odd order with the dessert Lava Baos coming out first, of which we let sit there on our table because we wanted to enjoy them last and they were therefore less warm as a result. The real stars of our meal were our two noodle entrées as the Chow Fun was a nice greasy staple of our afternoon and the Fried Rice Noodles were an unexpected surprise. Our total bill came to $98.41, which is admittedly on the pricier side for lunch for three. That said, it felt like money well spent, as we left with enough leftovers for several additional meals. A return visit to HL Peninsula is definitely in order. After all, a drive out to Castro Valley is never a bad thing. With its newest location already making waves in the local dining scene HL Peninsula is just building on their growing success! read more

This time around, I left feeling disappointed. The level of service I experienced previously was noticeably lacking during this visit. We spent a significant amount for lunch, yet waited nearly an hour for the piggy custard buns. Throughout that time, multiple servers passed by our table assuring us the order was on its way--but it never arrived. Later, we were told that a second order had never been placed, despite it clearly being marked on our menu. It appears the order was never entered into the system, which is frustrating, as that's not something the customer should be held responsible for. At the end of the day, it wasn't really about the buns--it was about the principle. The lack of accountability, the miscommunication, and especially being met with blame instead of a solution made the experience even more disappointing. There also didn't seem to be any effort from the staff to follow through or check with the kitchen regarding the missing order. Unfortunately, this experience took away from the overall dining experience. The automatic gratuity for larger parties may also play a role, as it can sometimes reduce the sense of urgency or ownership in service. Because of this visit, I'm hesitant to consider this restaurant a top choice moving forward. read more

I want to preface that I came here closer to the restaurant grand opening, ( forgot to post for a while). The service was incredibly slow, they put us in on of those rooms and we just got forgotten. Other tables in this room seemed to experienced the same service as they left frustrated with trying to ask for boxes and for the check to be paid. Food was very mediocre, nothing special, and it didn't justify the price tag. The inside was new and similar interior to the other HL peninsulas in the bay. This location did not impress, hopefully they have fixed some of the operations by now. read more

Huge restaurant, beautiful aesthetic, service is mediocre as the restaurant is so big and expansive. Not sure if they were short staffed or that just normal amount of waitstaff. Took forever to put our orders in and honestly I feel bad for the workers for the amount of walking they need to walk to serve the dishes. We had ordered the usual dim sum fare. I won't say anything with the piggy mango pudding that came out first as those were already prepared. We got our soy sauce chow mein first then the short ribs then beef rice rolls. Various orders came out and then we sat for the longest time waiting on Shrimp dumplings, siu mai and chicken feet. The most traditional items for dim sum came at the end of the meal. Flagging waitstaff is worse than being a student in a huge lecture hall. Flagged like 3 waitstaff and thought I was acknowledged because he nodded at me. Another 10 mins went by and still no check, I swear I could've walked out of there without paying and no one would notice. Finally, a 4th person came by, and I asked for my bill, ended up walking to the cashier to pay my bill, otherwise risk sitting there for another 15 minutes before we can leave. Eats: Shrimp dumplings are huge and savory, turnip cake was ok, fried hom sui gok was freshly made to order. Soy sauce chow mein was actually a nice surprise, it has a nice lemony finish to it. Probably my favorite dish out of everything that we ordered. Skip the scallion Pancake, I like that it is not oily but super bland. Also skip the mango pudding and the chocolate pudding. Bigger restaurant does not mean it is better. They need to figure out a way to streamline the service or at least have a better delivery system of food efficiently. Assigning servers to designated sections should be helpful in providing more consistent service and prevent guests from being overlooked. read more

Been here 3 times for dimsum and each time something is always missing. If you come soon after they open, almost guarantee to get a table without a wait. The space is very big and holds maybe over 100 tables varying in size. With such a big space though, there is only one bathroom. Depending on where you sit, you may have to walk all the way across the restaurant. Food: nothing spectacular. Just like any other dimsum restaurant. The timing of when food comes up is questionable. On two occasions, I had ordered two of the same items (eg. 2 Siu Mai, 2 chicken feet). Only one order comes out. I ask the server and they said the other order "is coming." The second order comes when we are almost done eating. Now sure how two of the same items can be steamed at different times. Dinner service is so-so. Portion size for food dinner dishes are small. We had a large family dinner here and ordered a few appetizers then entrees. All the food came out at once. My assumption would be that apps come out first, then once done, the entrees. This wasn't because the restaurant was busy...the had closed down half the restaurant seating because it wasn't full that evening. In addition, they started to bus our table before we were ready to leave. Overall, overhyped and not worth it. read more

The atmosphere was really classy, would definitely be a great wedding banquet hall as they have sectioned areas and private rooms. The food was decent, but everything came out extremely slow. Everytime I thought dinner was over, one dish would come out and this repeated for the rest of the meal. I think everyone in our party was confused as well because people would keep getting up and sitting back down throughout the whole dinner. There's a supermarket next door so the parking lot fills up pretty quick, but there's still plenty of spaces available around the corner. read more

Not sure if I went on an off day, but I had by far the worst dim sum experience here. I visited on a Tuesday during lunch and it was horrendous. We were there for over an hour and a half, which is extremely long for a lunch service in my opinion. The restaurant is huge but barely half was filled, so not sure why service was so slow. Service was terrible and inconsistent. At first, the servers were attentive but many times we were having to flag down servers for more water, to get a status on our food, etc, which of course also leads them to be a bit annoyed. Our tables around us also were waiting long times for their dishes. We ordered about 8 dishes which all came out scattered, where we had some food then we'd have to wait another 15+ minutes for the next item. It took 50 minutes for our congee to come out which is ridiculous. We couldn't eat our food consistently which had us wanting to order more because the food was taking so long and we were hungry and waiting, we ended up ordering chow fun last minute and Shanghai dumplings which we noticed they forgot to add from our first order.. Surprisingly the Shanghai dumplings came out still before the congee from our first order. The dim sum itself was fine, smaller pieces and portions were smaller than other spots. We got the general tao chicken wing and two pieces weren't cooked thru and at that point, I was genuinely annoyed and over it. We didn't complain or anything, I just finished as quick as I could so we could leave. I won't be back and don't recommend this spot. Their menu is limited compared to other spots so it baffles my mind that service was THAT slow on a weekday. I cannot imagine what service is like on a weekend when it's a full house. Prices are on the higher side for the portion and quality as well. There are better dimsum spots I'd rather make the drive to. It was almost $200 for three adults + 3 items I placed for to go. That's insane! read more

Second time here. First time we came late (8pm), the huge restaurant was pretty empty, and we had three dishes - one was very good & memorable: Chef Special Blackened BBQ Pork! Today, we came at 10:45am and it was already packed - President's Day holiday & the day before Chinese New Year. The large parking lot was already full. Even so, we were seated immediately. The many staff & servers were nice, efficient & seemed to work well together. The restaurant is huge, spacious & clean. We ordered the traditional Har Gow (shrimp dumplings), Siu Mai (pork & shrimp dumplings), Beef Chow Fun Dry (we asked for no bean sprouts & it was no problem), and Tomato Beef Chow Mien with Pan Fried Noodles (which isn't on their menu ... and they made it anyway & made it very well!). We also ordered Green Beans with Garlic (also not on their menu & they made it well anyway!). We also had Pan-Seared Chive & Shrimp Dumplings and Short Ribs with Teriyaki Sauce. The four of us are Chinese and have eaten lots of Chinese food in our lives. My Mom is especially picky & unfiltered about how she feels about Chinese food. We all felt all of the food was delicious! The prices may seem a bit high though the servings are quite large too. And there's an extensive selection of teas. I'm sure we'll be back again soon! read more

HL Peninsula - Near the end of our lunch! ;) - Dim Sum Near Me - Castro Valley, California

We just had the chance to try out HL Peninsula and the dim sum, chow fun, and chow mein was fantastic. You can tell the shrimp bonnets and pork crab siu mai is fresh not frozen. The beef in the chow fun and the assorted meat in the HK style crispy chow mein was fresh. They were also good sized portions. The custard tarts came out first and were kind of sad looking. I ate half and lucky me, nobody at my table was tempted so I ate the other half, super delish. 8 of us came at 1 pm on a Sunday. They were super busy but we were seated in 15 minutes. Normally, I wouldn't come so late because the fresh food is usually ready just before noon. No leftovers from the day before reheated and everything should be heated and ready. However, food was surprisingly still fresh at 1 pm. They ran out of two sweet items, a pancake & a sweet bao. There is an automatic tea charge and also a 16% service charge. The 8 of us were sat at a table for 12 so we had plenty of room. There were no places for extra chairs. They leave them around the table. I'm just glad we were seated and could put our purses on the chairs and sit in more than one chair. The waiting area had lots of chairs too and they were in good shape! The employees were working hard. They did seem a bit disorganized. There was a manager who was trying to lead the employees but there was so many customers and so many little things customers wanted or needed, that more experienced workers would have made everything run more smoothly. I asked an employee for boxes for our leftovers and he brought one box and one bag. I needed 3 boxes. If he was trained to look at the leftovers and estimate how many boxes were needed, confirmed and got them, he wouldn't have needed to make two runs to get enough boxes. I love dim sum and it was very good. I would go back if I was in the area. read more
