I had a great experience at this small dim sum restaurant. It was refreshing to see as most dim sum…read moreplaces I've been to are in large banquet halls. Shoutout to David for being so personable, friendly, and helpful. He really made the atmosphere so lively. My favorites were the beef balls, ha gow and shu mai. Everything seemed like they were made to order besides a few things like the turnip cake and the cha siu bao (looked like they were under heat lamps near the register). Food came out quickly after ordering. The line was a bit long (30 min wait) on a Saturday at 1pm, but wasn't that bad because we stayed under the shade of the building. I really hope they open up a location in OC!

Gotta say the last two times we've been have been a miss. One visit was just alright. The portions…read morefelt a lot smaller. The last time we went it was really bad. The man guy wasn't there either time and mane that's why? The women that were working really wrecked it for us. The turnip cake was cold and rubbery. We asked for a fresh one and the lady pointed at the dish and said "ye we just make". Bold face lie. I've eaten 10 of these over my visits and these were definitely not fresh. The potstickers were HALF the size they were from my first many visits. The shumai was so rubbery and warm. We didn't make it past one bite. The broccoli was fresh and tasted good. I'm not sure if we will be back. The last two times were so disappointing.

For dishes like the beef chow fun and steamed fish for about $14.88, making it super affordable for a large group meal. The food came out fresh and hot, and the menu had a lot of variety to choose from. The restaurant gets busy, on weekends but service moved pretty efficiently overall. A perk for this place is that they do have a parking garage, which made parking way less stressful compared to other busy dim sum spots in the area.

When Bistro 1968 first opened, I bookmarked the restaurant wanting to stop by for dim sum but never…read morehad the chance to do so. I heard about their AYCE dim sum promo but that actually made me not want to come because I knew the wait would've been very long, and I hate waiting for a table just to eat. Fast forward to tonight and a suggestion was made to try the $14.88 dinner special at Bistro 1968. Here's my honest review of my experience. * Parking - Self parking behind the restaurant. I came on a Monday night dinner time , and there was only 2 cars in the entire lot. The parking lot was very creepy as it was't too well lit. I could see the kitchen from the structure because the backdoor was left opened. There were boxes and junk littered around the area. * You have to walk through a long hallway from the parking lot to get to the restaurant. There are signs to guide you, but if you're going there for the first time, it could be a bit confusing. * We got there at 7pm and there was only 1 table of customers. I honestly don't know how to describe the decor because it depends on which part of restaurant you're looking at. * Staff were all VERY nice. They gave us free dessert (Egg Tarts and Pineapple Buns) so that was awesome. * Food - I ordered the Fried Fish but it wasn't fully cooked. Some parts were still raw so it had a fishy taste. We ate a few pieces but left most of it untouched. Everything else was pretty much okay except for its temperature - it was lukewarm. Nothing was piping hot except for the steamed Pork Spareribs from their all day dim sum menu. * There were some small gnats that kept flying around and when one actually landed in my food, I just stopped eating altogether. * No alcohol available but definitely not a huge deal. Their staff are so nice that I actually feel bad about not writing a positive review about the establishment, but I really just don't see how I am able to rate it any higher than 2 stars. I don't think I will be coming back.

Different from the restaurants serving dim sum on carts some folks may be used to. This is more of place someone would go to if you wanted quick dim sum at a great price. Highlights: -#5 har gow (aka crystal shrimp dumplings) was so plump and jam packed with shrimp! The skin was so chewy too. Delicious! -#25 black sesame with red bean paste was so fresh! It was crisp and chewy without feeling too heavy from the oil, if you stop at one that is haha -#6 siu mai was also so jam packed with meat and juicy! Still worth mentioning that the turnip cake was delicious in flavor but just not a highlight because it was on the mushier side. I'd still get it again though! Also, my partner really enjoyed the congee. I didn't try it though. Areas that can be improved: -the lotus sticky rice was a little lacking in flavor and meat. -the Cheung fun although had generous amounts of shrimp, it lacked bounce in the rice noodle. Maybe because it was cold by the time we ate it. -to reduce paper consumption, I recommend using laminate dry erase for the menus so they can be reused. Just an idea/suggestion! We were charged weekend prices because it is a holiday (President's Day). The accept credit card. You can also order via phone but we figured it wouldn't be too busy on a rainy day.

Food didn't taste as good as more than 15 years ago, overly expensive banquet menu. Price on…read morereservation menu was way different from actual price at restaurant. Won't allow to change some food on banquet menu, just had to add another dish. Food came out fast & with big plates, hardly any space on table, waiter just left it on top of 2 serving trays. They didn't care that serving plates were still full. The beef loc lac was tough, deep fried fish sauce tasted weird with their sweet sour sauce, pea sprouts which I was trying to change to another dish but couldn't, sure enough was so fibrous & chewy. The special fried rice was so full of all different kinds of meat that it was like a meal in itself. With 10 different dishes it would have been better to serve plain white rice. Felt service could been better for 18% service already added on bill. Tea was even charged. Had to ask for menu at cashier & was told already at table, asked for waiter so we can order, had to ask for water, spoons & forks or to have some serving plates taken away to have more space at table. There were few waiters & feel that they were not attentive and restaurant was not even busy. Even parking lot was not full but there was courtesy valet parking & girl was insisting on parking the cars even though several cars was starting to line up. I would never recommend or return to this place again. Just disappointed that my guests did not enjoy the food as well.

I only ever had their takeout during Covid but I was sooo excited to finally dine-in here. I took…read moreadvantage of the reservation system and did not have to wait on a Saturday evening. The place was bustling for a good reason. You must try their seafood of course, its in the name. But especially the house special lobster noodles. The plate was ginormous and could feed up to 10+ people. Flavors were all there too. I also had the red cod for $50/pound. While it was good, the cod costed $150 and didn't have much meat. Top notch service.

The Pork & Shrimp Dumpling with Truffle Sauce deserves a special mention. Service: There's been a wait the few times I've been here--on a Sunday at noon, it can be an upward of an hour, depending on your party size. Food comes out quickly, once you've ordered. Ambiance: Traditional decor. Larger tables have the lazy Susan. Parking: Adjacent parking lot, but can be busy during peak hours, so can take a min to find an open spot. However, street parking is also available.

I had no idea that they have been Michelin guide recognition. But, they are fast to turn the tables and get the cue moving quickly. Food is legit and I'd say the best item was the Shao Mai since they use truffle on top instead of fish roe. The turnip cake here is also steamed only and not pan fired before serving which is different by my experiences. They do have both the steamed and baked Cha Shao Bao for those that like both kinds. And, you order from the menus in my pics and dim sum pricing is based on the size of the dim sum. Check out my pics!

The Xiao Long Bao was absolutely delicious. Tip: make sure to eat these right away. It's better when the soup is hot; rather than letting it sit and cool off. My favorite dish is the Dan Dan Noodles. I love their version because its peanut sauce is creamy and makes the dish more tastier. It could use a bit more pork. I still enjoyed this dish though!

Was craving beef noodle soup the other day so I decided to try it from here. Called in my order and…read morepicked it up within about 20 minutes which was nice and easy. I ordered the house special beef noodle soup, which they're known for. The portion size is solid with a lot of noodles, plus bok choy, tender beef, and tendons. The broth is on the lighter side, which some people might like, but for me it felt like it was missing a bit of depth. One thing I didn't like is they don't include pickled vegetables. I feel like that should be standard with beef noodle soup, even just a small portion helps bring everything together. Instead they charge extra for it, which was kind of a letdown. Overall it did satisfy my craving, but it didn't really have me wanting to come back right away.

Solid but not much to say about it Walnut shrimp: 9/10. Definitely some of the better walnut shrimps I've had. The shrimp are also a great size. We ordered this again Seafood fried rice: 9/10. Very nice portion and decent amount of seafood in here. I like the variety of seafood. Green beans: 7/10. I don't think most restaurants do a good job, but this one isn't bad Rice cakes: I don't think I can fairly judge rice cakes because I'm generally not a fan, but everyone else liked it Beef rolls: 9/10. Also very good. They were nice and checked if we wanted to cut it into 4 pieces or 6 which was very considerate of them. Servers are very nice and friendly. I really liked the service. They were also very quick and efficient with clearing empty plates out and refilling the water containers.

Took our dad here for his birthday and everyone loved it. Prime time weekend, i will say the lines can still be long here but 1hr vs 2-3hrs at dung tai fung. Food may not be as fancy Michelin or ambiance but it definitely hits the spot. Price isn't cheap but still a bit cheaper. Overall a very good alternative but there are also still many good places if you don't care for the crazy ambiance or presentations at mom and pops spots. This is if your trying to compare with Ding tai fung, its kicked down a notch or so. Generally, better than the mom & pops yet toned down from the famous one. My least favorite is the cucumber salad and the stir fried noodles as the flavors were lacking. Everything else were good.
