I always enjoyed Tang Gong when they were located in Monterey Park at Atlantic and Garvey. They have moved to this Arcadia location and I was not disappointed with their food and service. The location is spacious and has a nice red ambiance. Even though I had a reservation, we, a party of 6, were seated fairly quickly without referring to the reservation. They do not do carts for their dim sum, but orders do come out fairly quickly. The dim sum is very comparable to all the well known and hyped dim sum establishments in the San Gabriel Valley. They had a special offering on their steamed farm raised whole chicken with ginger sauce which was well worth the price. Their french baked BBQ pork buns were delicious as were their salted egg yolk rice roll. The only disappointment was their pan fried vermicelli with minced beef. It was unique and could have used more seasoning. Service could use some polish, but was relatively good. One of the best value of Tang Gong is there is no tea service charge. That's a saving of at least $2.50 per person over other dim sum palaces. Overall, Tang Gong serves solid dim sum for the masses at a great value. read more

Tang Gong in Arcadia is a great option for dinner if you're looking for something that feels a little special without spending a fortune. I haven't tried their dim sum yet, but I've heard it's good and reasonably priced, which makes me want to come back during the day. We came for dinner and ordered the king crab and it was so good. Fresh, flavorful, and definitely the highlight of the meal. The rest of the dishes were just as satisfying and everything came out well prepared and hot. What really stood out was how affordable it was for the quality and the portion sizes. They have a lot of dinner specials, so it's easy to put together a full table without the bill getting out of hand. Overall a solid spot for a group dinner in the Arcadia area. Great value, tasty food, and now I actually want to come back to try the dim sum next time. read more

The four of us enjoyed dim sum here on a Sunday morning. We were seated right at 9:30am, and by the time we left around 12:30pm, the place was buzzing! It was the perfect spot to catch up and enjoy a leisurely meal together. We probably ordered around 10 dishes, and some highlights were the bean curd roll, chicken feet, sponge cake, osmanthus jelly, and my new favorite--the sweet potato balls with melted salted egg. Definitely eat those fresh while they're hot! It was also great to see the brown sugar and rice flour pudding with sweet red beans, it brings back such nostalgia. (Put Chai Gou) On weekends, all dishes are $5.99, which makes tallying the bill super easy. My friend enjoyed the food so much that she grabbed a few takeout dishes for her family. The servers were friendly, and if you need anything, just wave a waiter over, they're quick to bring sauces or refill teapots. This is a fantastic spot for dim sum, and I'm sure their dinner menu is just as good. read more

I'm surprised this place has the overall rating of 3 stars. The food was very good but I'm only rating off the dim sum items we had. Portions were large, like I was surprised by how big the shrimp dumplings were. So much shrimp filling. Service was relatively nice compared to most Chinese spots. Very attentive and staff was mostly Cantonese. Egg tarts were the best item in my opinion and more like Portuguese style with how thick they are. Crust is flaky in a good way. Note there was one lady who was not great at cutting the dim sum items. We ordered the stuffed eggplant with shrimp and the way she cut the dish splattered sauce all over my fiance's shirt. But that dish was very tasty and more unique. read more

Tang Gong - The spread - Dim Sum Near Me - Arcadia, California

First time having dim sum here! First off, the dim sum menu is really hard to read because it's in black and white so it was hard to tell what you're ordering based on pictures. We ended up ordering 8 dishes as a family of 4. Food came pretty quickly and I loved how big the pieces of dim sum are. Taste wise, some dishes were a hit and some were a miss. For example, the chicken feet were a miss. It lacked flavor and wasn't hot enough. The steamed rice rolls with the Chinese donut was also a miss because the donut was soggy and didn't taste fresh. I really enjoyed the French style bbq pork buns and siu mai though! Prices were pretty reasonable. I will definitely be back for dim sum again in the future. read more

We went for dim-sum and the food was pretty good! Th prices were reasonable. We had 8 people and we ordered 23 items! We ordered lobster noodles, ha-gow, purple yam dessert, char-siu bao, tofu wrap, thousand year old egg congee, veggies, fried taro cake, turnip cake, red bean pastry, crunchy taro pastry, flat noodles with beef, steamed minced beef meat balls, lotus leaf wrapped sticky rice, braised tofu, and so much more! The place is large with high ceiling. It was noisy like most Chinese restaurants. We had fun! As for service, you just have to wave and flag down the servers. That's mostly expected at large noisy Chinese restaurants. Free parking outside. read more

Stopped here for a quick impromptu brunch with my friend and her mom. Parking lot can get busy depending on what time it is, since there's lots of eateries and other businesses in the same plaza, but they have the 2 layer parking garage if need be. It was PACKED that morning and you can see how popular this spot is for Cantonese food. Very lively and the huge amount of red all over the restaurant made me feel prosperous just being there. My friend's mom was already there and had food ordered already, so we just ordered a bit more and we had so much food leftover. They do not skimp out on the size of the steamed selection of foods and the portions either. So we definitely had leftovers for later lunch and dinner. We also got HK lemon tea to go as well. Very refreshing, strong tea taste, and a great pick me up if you need a caffeine kick. For our dim sum brunch, we got the: pan fried Vermicelli noodles with minced beef, fish roe siu mai, steamed pork ribs with black bean sauce, beef meat ball with a hing of orange peel, stuffed eggplant with shrimp paste, fried glutinous rice dumplings with shrimp (har gow, my favorite), pan fried taro cake (another must for dim sum), famous BBQ pork puff, and fresh cream Portuguese egg tart (another must, one of my fav dessert pastries). I have to say the that the pan fried noodles, they literally fill up the massive pan, fry a layer of scrambled egg on it, and serve it to you. It can serve several people and we had so much left over. Add a bit of soy sauce or chili oil and it's perfect. Love all of the dim sum classics here. I'm usually not free to go eat dim sum, but when I do, this is one of the top choices. read more

Ambiance! 4/5! Service 4/5! Food 3.5! Ok first time here and prices are up! I mean inflation sucks. Ok well we ordered Dim Sum plus Yang Chow fried rice! Chicken feet 5/5 Shrimp ha gow 4.5/5 Shrimp fun Cheung 3/5 the shrimp wasn't that fresh but it was acceptable The yang chow fried rice would've been 4/5!

Was there in the shrimp Roasted duck 4/5, portion 3/5 Sui Mai 3.5/5 rather large and meaty! Decent Bbq pork pastry 3.5/5 Fried Egg rolls 3.5/5 You know it's average! I didn't hate it I didn't love it, if my parents liked it here, we come back, so we will. It's not top rated Michelin star status but it will do near home! Had better and had worse! So this was ok! read more

I've been hearing about Tang Gong for dim sum for a while after they remodeled. We ordered a bunch of dim sum items for a group of 7. The food came relatively quickly. Here are some of my favorites: braised tofu skin roll with abalone sauce abalone sticky rice in lotus leaf famous BBQ pork puff All the food we ordered were tasty. However, I was disappointed that some of the dim sum items, especially the fried ones were room tempeture and not even warm when it came to the table. Overall, the food was decent. The service was a little slow. We see most first generation Chinese people at the restaurant so we can assume it's authentic. All dim sum items are $5.39 M-F, and $5.99 on Sat. Sun. and holidays. They also do not charge tea per person. It's a relatively good deal in SGV. read more

We were guests at a special birthday dinner. We enjoyed all the well flavored dishes. Many dishes were artistically presented. Service was excellent. Our plates were replaced with clean ones as we finished the chicken and the lobster dishes. Longevity noodles were the last dish served. The private room brightly decorated in red & gold had two round tables perfect for seating 20-22 people. Red & gold colors for Chinese represent happiness & good fortune. read more

Overall Experience - 8/10 - This place had generally good dim sum and the prices were decent and they are currently running a special where there is no per-person charge and all the sizes of the dim sum were a flat rate price for weekends and a flat rate price for weekends. The restaurant was large and spacious and had ample parking in the large shopping plaza. The restaurant did not have much of a long wait when I visited it with my family. Food - The food was pretty decent for a dim sum place and in the nearby area close to where my parents lived. The preserved egg porridge one of the my favorites. It goes well with all the other dim sum dishes that we ordered. I feel that some of the dishes can be a bit on the saltier side. The abalone sticky rice was well balanced and interesting that they also had salted yolk in it too. The french style BBQ pork buns were nice and had a nice balance between the sweet and salty. All the other dim sum items that we ordered was also good. I was told that some of the items can be on the saltier side for dim sum dishes. Additionally, the service was pretty good and the staff were attentive to people's need. They had quite a bit of staff in the area. Overall - I would return to this restaurant because they had a decent price for dim sum at the moment and the service was pretty good. The ambience was also nice and similar to other dim sum restaurants. I would go an try some other different dishes. read more

UPDATE - 7/22 So glad not only is this restaurant good for their dim sum but their dinner specials were delicious too! Went on Tuesday night and it wasn't too busy so service was very welcoming and attentive. Dinner Special consisted of 18 different items and each dish was $13.99. The dinner menu consisted of a good variety of meat, seafood, and vegetable dishes and were reasonably priced ($20+). Loved that the tea was complimentary and the free appetizer, which consisted of lightly salted roasted peanuts and cold spicy chicken feet. I really liked the roasted peanuts but didn't care for the chicken feet. Got the Curry Beef Brisket and it was so delicious! The curry was very flavorful and not too spicy. The brisket was tender and very good! Definitely really enjoyed this dish and would recommend! This was 9/10 Fried Rice with Cured Meat was pretty good. It was a little bland but consisted of many pieces of meat. The meat wasn't too fatty or salty. It was a decent dish but nothing too special so this was 6/10 Salt and Pepper Fish Filet was so yummy! Wish it was more crispy but other than that, it was packed with flavor. Not too greasy or salty. Really enjoyed all the little pieces ofgarlic that were in the dish as well! This was 8/10 Lastly, we were pleasantly surprised with complimentary egg tarts! They were so fresh and tasty! Not too sweet and such a wonderful way to end such a great meal! This was 9/10 Would definitely recommend and return read more

Food is delicious. It's very good price , and free tea. They have a big space. They have good service.

Came here for dinner. Service was poor and there seemed to be quite a bit of confusion from the waiters, but food by itself was good but very salty. They had no white rice until the end of the meal, which is crazy for an Asian restaurant. Wouldn't come back again. Big parking lot. read more

Good service. Huge place and the dimsum is pretty good. Better than the ones around this area. They have a single price of dimsum throughout weekday so it is a very good deal. You can even pick up a whole steamed chicken or certain type of dish for only $18. But you have to dine in house for that specials. Overall it is the place to go for my mom and I for dimsum in the area. read more

First, this place was Dou Lao Fang and I believe the name changed to Tang Gong about a month ago? And, this review is just for the hot pot as I've done the hot pot a few times before. Price went from $29 to $30 but the hot pot menu still says Dou Lao Fang (but the dim sum menu says Tang Gong). So, all the hot pot items remain unchanged and it's still a good deal for $30 per person which includes soft drinks or plum juice. And, no time limit. As mentioned in my hot pot reviews for Dou Lao Fang, they have the fresh fish and shrimp paste which makes them stand above other places that serve the frozen fish balls. And, they have the satay sauce that I need for hot pot. Check out my pics! read more

Tang Gong - Dim Sum Near Me - Arcadia, California

I went to this restaurant for the first time five months ago and I loved it. I have been back to this place several more times. Each time I came back, the service got worst each time. The latest visit was on Labor Day. I knew there would be a lot of people so I opted to do take out instead of dining in. When I walked in there were still many tables open. No waiting list yet for seating. Even under this circumstance the wait staff simply ignored me. I finally placed my take out order. The order took 40 minutes! And I had to follow up with the wait staff three times. The food was still good but the service is terrible. I think they don't have enough staff to serve the large number of customers they have. read more

Tang Gong - Dim Sum Near Me - Arcadia, California

Have previously been here for their AYCE hot pot option and most recently came for their normal Chinese dinner food options. Both times I left incredibly disappointed and hungry. I won't speak too much about the first time but this time around my entire family (two tables of 20 people) felt pretty disappointed in the food quality and the service. Each dish took forever to come out and we ended up cancelling a few dishes in the end because we needed to wrap up dinner. We were also one of the only tables there so we're not quite sure why each dish took so long to make but the dishes that did come out were disappointing. Some dishes were overseasoned, others were underseasoned and bland. The walnuts in the walnut shrimp tasted stale and the lobster noodles had zero flavor. Overall disappointed in our experience and won't be coming back for dinner. I know they also serve dim sum here and my grandparents enjoyed it before but this review was solely based on my dinner experience. read more

Honestly one of the best dim sum experiences I've had in a while. The food was warm, fresh and absolutely delicious. Caught me by surprise! * the BBQ pork buns were some of the best in the 626. The cha siu flavor and syrup were ON POINT. the baked version is crispy, has some corn flakes on top, and rivals the best (such as Tim Ho Wan). And the steamed is just soft goodness. * Siu Mai was classic, plump, and one of the best. * Seafood Chow Mein lacked a bit of flavor but the ingredients were great, and I'm willing to give it a second chance next time. Crispy noodle texture was great. * The Salted Egg Yolk bun was also really good. It's soft and the inside is runny and creamy as it should be. * Ambience is nice. It's large and spacious inside. There happened to be a lion dance performance going on today, which added to the celebratory and positive vibes. So happy that Tang Gong is revived from its old Monterey Park spot to this Arcadia location. The food is as good as I remembered. Please go and support! read more

Food was very disappointing! The family and I came here for Chinese New Year eve dinner. The restaurant was not very busy (not a good sign). The decor was very festive, so much red covering every wall and chair. We placed our order and it took about 20 mins or so for the food to come out. We ordered rice to go with the food, but that didn't come until another 20 mins later. When we asked, they said they haven't finished cooking the rice yet. (Wow!) 1. Roasted Pork in Portuguese sauce: 4/5 it was crispy and a good appetizer. 2. Soy sauce chicken: 1/5 the chicken's color seemed off and it did not taste fresh. Also very few pieces. 3. French style Pan fried fillet steak: 2/5 flavor seemed off. It wasn't the best cut of beef, but they velveted the beef so it would be tender. 4. Fresh crab meat w. E-fu noodle in soup: 1/5 the "crab" pieces were dry and few, seemed more like canned than fresh. The picture of this dish looked so off from the picture in the menu... was very disappointing didn't even want to take a picture. 5. Sweet & sour fish fillet: 3/5 this was ok, a bit sweet/saucy for my liking, but the kids liked it. 6. White rice: 1/5 dry and hard... seemed like they didn't finish cooking it and hurry it out. Sorry, I wouldn't recommend coming here, especially when there are so many other better options in the area. read more

This restaurant is popular among my Chinese people because their promo of not charging a tea setting fee which saves about $2 a person It was very busy here on a Thursday morning.......waited about ten minutes and got seated for a party of three. The ambiance is very typical Chinese style of red and gold colors. Huge dining floor with about 50 tables of mostly 4-5 seats. There is also a lower level to the restaurant which is a bit different than other spots. Then waited about fifteen minutes for a waitress to pickup our order sheet. The employees here are all running around without efficiency or functional purpose. Waiting for our dim sum to be steamed and brought to our table......let's see how long it will be? Ordered a total of eight dishes (only 7 made it to the table) and it took over 30 minutes to come out.....no food flow whatsoever....one dish at a time! They were definitely short staffed and orders were mixed up between our table and three others. The food that we tasted was hot and delicious, portion size was good too. But unfortunately on this day, the service was just HORRENDOUS!!! A whole cluster *uck of mistakes over and over. Will definitely think twice about coming back again. read more

Crazy about dim sum, we came here again. Good food, good price and good service. Our eyes are always smaller than our stomach. Everytime, we have so much more that we will take home for the day.

We were in the area & decided to give this place a try. We were surprised by the portion size of the dim sum dishes. I'm not used to the turnip cake slices cut into such thick slices. The chive & shrimp dumpling was flavorful as they made it with a lot of chives. Hubby liked the abalone sticky rice. Oh my lord, the egg plant size was massive. Overall, the place was clean & the servers were accommodating. read more

Tang Gong - Dim Sum Near Me - Arcadia, California

Great spot for a dimsum fix! This is not the spot if your looking for cart experience. Location feels a bit small and only the top level is open. The bottom level seems to be closed. Fairly pack during weekends and expect a waitlist for bigger parties. Lots of parking available around the lot. Service was good. Staff are nice and waiter came by a few times to check up on us. At first the staff tone sounded a bit rude, but she was actually nice! Trays are cleared very quickly and tea is always being refilled. Food in general was good. Basically write the amount you want the order on the menu provided. My favorite was the shrimp dumpling and shrimp rice roll (cheung fun). Shrimp filling was decent in size. Fish roe siu mai was mediocre at best. Personally, it was a bit dry and not fresh out. Might be different for everyone else! Would visit again! read more

I would not recommend this restaurant. First of all, only three smallll hot sauces per table? What kind of cheap setup is that? We're a group of 8 The service was also ridiculous. Instead of simply spinning the lazy Susan to place dishes where there was space, the server kept pushing all the teapots toward the center of the table just to make room. The table literally spins for a reason. For a $200 meal, the lack of basic common sense in service was honestly shocking read more

Yikes. Bad impression from the start with the dirty carpet everywhere. There was worker sitting a table next to us watching their phone on blast. Then as we were boxing our left overs we found hair in the eggplant. Ugh. There was a 50th party going on there the same time we were there and I really hope their food doesn't have hair in it. We should have checked Yelp before going here. First time and last time we will be here. There's definitely cleaner places to go. read more

Finally Tang Gong reopened in Arcadia from Monterey park. My sister and I came here for dim sum. We were nicely greeted and got a table at 10:40am.

We received the paper menu with soft opening weekend prices (5.38), m (6.38), l (7.38). It wasn't busy when we arrived but it got busy at after 11am. We ordered sui mai, har gow, bolo bao, Portuguese tarts, ham su gook, cheung fun beef, beef chow fun. Beef meatballs, cheung fun wrapped Chinese donut. One dish arrived at a time, both sui mai, Beef meatballs, and ham su gook was huge in size same as old location.
