    My favorite topic of conversation when out to dinner with friends -- what new restaurants we all want to try -- which is how I was introduced to Treasure. Although the restaurant was mostly empty an hour before they were due to close up for lunch, we stepped into a rather chaotic situation; our high-strung waiter informed us the dim sum chef had left for the day, but after we ordered our entrees, were told he was back & able to prepare those smaller dishes. As it turned out, dim sum was the weak spot on their menu. We ordered a handful -- jade shrimp dumplings (their name for har gow), baked bbq pork bun (with a sugary exterior), custard buns, Sichuan red oil wonton, pan-fried pork & chive potstickers -- & none held a candle to our favorite dim sum restaurants. Decent, but not worth re-ordering. On the other hand, our main dishes were very good, & we look forward to trying more from the main menu. Treasure Fried Rice with beef had a nice smoky flavor from the wok, & Chongqing Numbing Spicy Chicken (made with chicken breast) was oilier than other versions we've tried but was delicious, nonetheless. Hefty price tags to match their chic ambiance & quality ingredients.

    Nice Chinese restaurant local place! Servers are really nice, as is the manager. We got to sit in one of the tables in the middle section and the lighting is really nice. Feels almost like a private room. Their private room seats more and I think there is a $1k minimum. Tried some new dishes today: the mapo tofu was a hit and the crispy chicken and ho fun with beef. We also really liked the egg custard tarts. The soup dumplings are not our favorite - almost no soup inside. Our new spot for family meals.

    Belmont finally has the upscale Chinese dining spot it deserves, and Treasure absolutely delivers. From the moment you walk in, the space sets the tone -- a dramatic charred-wood feature wall with a sculptural pine tree, a stone foo dog, and a trickling water feature under the backlit "Treasure 中餐厅" logo. It feels more like a design-forward Hong Kong tea house than a strip-mall restaurant. We went for the dim sum tasting box and it was the clear highlight. A twelve-compartment wooden presentation arrived with lotus-leaf sticky rice, siu mai topped with tobiko, har gow, shrimp dumplings, sesame balls, a pillowy lotus-paste bun, crispy taro puffs, egg tarts, a golden baked BBQ pork bun (bolo bao style), and a beautifully crunchy rice-crusted shrimp ball. Each piece was visibly handmade and plated on its own ceramic dish with shiso leaves -- this is dim sum treated like kaiseki. The baked custard-topped pork bun deserves its own paragraph. The crust shattered into buttery golden crumbs with a taro-like filling that was sweet, savory, and not overly dense. The shrimp ball wrapped in red tobiko was another standout -- crisp, briny pop on the outside, juicy whole shrimp inside. The menu also leans into regional Sichuan and home-style dishes, with clearly marked spice levels (one or two chili icons) on items like Sour & Spicy Lotus Root Slices, Stir-Fried String Bean with Eggplant, and Sichuan-style Fish-Fragrant Eggplant with house garlic sauce. Seasonal greens include A-choy and yu choy sum, which is a nice touch you don't see at most American Chinese spots. Service was attentive, the tea service came in a lovely clay pot, and the pacing was perfect. Prices feel fair for the quality and artistry on the plate. If you're on the Peninsula and craving elevated dim sum or Chinese food that actually photographs as well as it tastes, Treasure is the move -- go now before the waits get unreasonable.

    Jade Shrimp Dumplings

    Treasure is an upscale Chinese restaurant on El Camino Real in the City of Belmont. Their menu offers dim sum, Cantonese cuisine, and various regional dishes. We were a party of 3 for lunch on a Wednesday. At 12-noon, the place was about 60-70% full, with plenty of 4 & 6 seat tables. They also have several round tables that seat up to 8. Also, a huge table is in a private dining room in the back. The interior is beautiful and elegant. There's colorful fish suspended from the ceiling. Also, you can watch them make dim sum thru a window. We looked over the lunch menu and the main menu, and ordered these items.... - Jade Shrimp Dumplings (4) - Custard Egg Tarts (3) - Golden-Silver Turnip Cakes (6) - Pork Soup Dumplings (6) - Jade Ribbon Noodles w/ Steamed Spare Ribs - Chinese Kale - House Chow Mein ------------------------------------ Total w/ tax= $90.81 All the food was good. The presentation was well done. The only dish that didn't seem right was the "Ribbon Noodles w/ Steamed Spare Ribs." It should be called "Steamed Spare Ribs on Ribbon Noodles." Because that's how it's served. It's a mountain of steamed riblets over a bed of ribbon noodles. So why 4-stars? There were some service issues. I believe our server was still in training. He brought the wrong dishes to our table, then seemed unsure of what to do. The manager came to our table and assured us that our dishes would be correct. There were no more problems after that. Overall, a good first time experience. It was nice to see this place and have a casual lunch. I would love to return and experience the dinner service. Great food quality and presentation.

    walnut shrimp delectable

    I'm a fan! Went for dinner and had a really memorable experience. The highlight was the whole crispy Peking duck, carved tableside and served 2-3 ways from a rolling cart. The service felt almost like a show--I caught myself just watching the servers expertly carve with their big knives, kind of like a Brazilian steakhouse experience. I was too busy enjoying it all to take photos! Definitely order the duck mini wraps and add the soup. One note: the fried duck option is chopped bone-in, which might not be for everyone, especially if you're not used to that style of preparation. We also loved the fried shrimp with walnuts, the sweet and sour chicken, and a clay pot dish (honestly, you can't go wrong with any of them). The vegetables, especially the green beans, were incredibly fresh and perfectly cooked. Don't skip dessert--everything is beautifully presented. Think adorable jellies shaped like little baby rabbits or mango pudding molded to look like corn on the cob. Almost too cute to eat.

    Watch the review for "Treasure" on YouTube channel "THAT ONE DISH" https://youtu.be/eEXCP-Alh3c?si=wq1GCwmVtcNLHfTo This place is a Chinese restaurant treasure!! We had a feast Peking Duck was the show.... Nice flavor and the duck was so juicy!!! The whole Snapper Fish was really really good too. Now it might be weird to get Dim Sum at dinner but it was freshly made and was so yummy. The place was so elegant and beautiful. The decorative outside the restaurant was very creative and beautiful also. Outstanding service from the staff. Ken and Jimmy were great!!! We also got to meet the owner Mickey and her guest Chef Martin Yan!!! Overall Amazing!!! A Must Try!!!

    Salt & pepper popcorn chicken- great value and big portion for an appetizer. Flavor was tasty and meat was not dry. It had the perfect crunch and wasn't too oily. I'd get this again. Steamed scallops with garlic vermicelli- I tried eating it little by little from the shell and I wasn't impressed. It tastes bland. However, for second serving, I ate it in one big bite and the flavors blended much better. I would not mind getting this again. Hot & sour soup- Second time getting this and it's consistently good. Seasonal Greens: A-choy- I love how the leaves soak up all the flavor stalk still has a nice crunch. I'd get it again but would probably try their other veggies before circling back. Chrysanthemum jello- This was complimentary dessert. It was light and not too sweet. A perfect way to end the meal. Service was great and friendly. They even packed up our leftovers for us. There were 3 of us and we had plenty of leftovers, except for the scallops. I looked around after our meal and they have a beautiful private room that I was told seats 20 people. It even has its own lounge area. I'll definitely be back.

    We went here for our mom's birthday and reserved the private room in the back. It was spacious, modern, and well able to fit the 15 of us without being too crowded. We reserved 2 Treasure Peking ducks full set ($88 each) and it was well worth it. The presentation of the duck cutting on the cart was phenomenal and the skin was crispy and meat was tender. Wrapped with the warm, thin pancake with scallion, hoisin, and cucumber, sprinkled with a bit of sugar. That's how we roll. They made a savory soup broth and deep fried the bone carcass in a sweet/spicy mala sauce (numbing effect so watch out), with the remaining duck. For dim sum here is what we ordered: Lychee Shaped Shrimp Balls: 6 for each order for $12.95 - very cute presentation as each were made to look like a lychee even the color was on point. The outside was super crispy rice like and soft and shrimp filling in the middle was moist. Golden Phoenix Crispy Dumplings: 3 for each order for $13.42. OMGEEE the birds are so cute! They shaped each order into mini birds. After biting into the crispy outside, you can taste the meaty gooey inside filling. Golden Baked BBQ Pork Bun 3 for each order for $8.95 - This was probably one of the best buns I've had in my life. The inside was soft and gooey, great ratio of meat to bun. The outside had a crispy, flaky sweet crust. Yum! Triple Blessing Steam Platter Come with chicken feet, tripe, and spareribs for $8.95. It's a little small but if you want a sampler of all this. Try it. Shanghainese Pork Soup Dumpling 6 for $10.95. The dumpling was very juicy and plump and biting into it you can taste the warm soup. Gold-Silver Shrimp & Pork Siu Mai 4 for $8.95. Super plump and yummy siu mai with a shrimp on top. Can go wrong with this. Honey Walnut Shrimp $20.95 for a large order. The shrimp were really large size and crispy and nicely fried in a sweet sauce with glazed walnuts. Pea Shoots in Superior Broth $26.95. This was a big order and really flavorful. Chongqing Numbing Spicy Chicken Wings $21.95. There's a lot of spice going on this. So if you like spice do it and try it. I didn't try it but everyone in my party said it wasn't too spicy! Service was great and we had finished most of the dishes! I would totally recommend to come back when you are looking for a nice place to eat peking duck and dim sum.

    New year, new restaurant to try out, new post for 2026. This was a mixed feelings experience. What was good - nicely decorated and inviting space. I think we were lucky to be seated without a reservation as I overheard the host tell someone on the phone that they were booked for the next 2 hours. Ordered the popcorn chicken and greens beans for the regular menu. These were hits for the table. Also flavorful were the pan fried shrimp and chive dumplings. Here are the options that fell short - pork ribs in black bean sauce, soup dumplings - the flavor was fine but wasn't a fan of the thick wrapper, Siu Mai, jade rabbit shrimp dumplings aka har gow - cute presentation but the flavor was off and the wrapper mushy. Of note, a table near us order the Peking duck which was prepared table side by a chef and would be something to consider with a larger party.

    Pretty good - happy to try a new place - a chain with a good reputation - we the food was pretty good, a bit salty, and more expensive than most - cute outside, got our food to go - enjoyed the dumplings, honey glazed pork treasure buns though doughy I love that, the kung pao chicken was... bland? The green beans and eggplant were pretty basic but had good taste, the Treasure noodles with beef were bland. Better the next day with peanuts and lime juice. I mean, it was fine, but about 20% more expensive than it should be, try it, though - not bad - cute inside - will try again and eat at location and see if it's better with ambience

    OMG! This is the best Chinese restaurant in the Bay Area!!! I love the roasted duck the most. Actually all other dishes are great! The spicy fish, dim sum..... Our family comes here once a week. The ambiance is so good! Their service is amazing!

    Came here on a Saturday night because my friend said he ordered the special Peking duck. The restaurant is beautifully decorated. It definitely feels like an upscale Chinese restaurant that just opened. The furniture and the table settings to the dishes are definitely not your typical look at a Chinese restaurant. We ordered a decent amount to try on the menu since it was our first time. The Peking duck came with a little fire show, but in terms of taste I expected more flavor. I've had better Peking duck elsewhere, but I will say the skin was very crispy compared to other places. It reminded me of the Peking duck I had in Beijing in terms of presentation, but nothing compared to as flavor. The duck chip with caviar was probably my favorite dish of the night. It was either on top of a piece of square bread (I think that's what it was) or an avocado chip that looked like a Pringle. It was a bite sized flavor bomb with lots of texture. Everything else wasn't bad for what it is. Definitely on the spicy side so if you can't handle spice, I would suggest ordering non spicy or mild since the spice is more of a mala flavor that will numb your tongue. They have a great selection of high quality teas. I can't remember what we ordered but it was very refreshing. It definitely had a strong tea flavor. The tea was clean and bold in flavor without it being too overpowering. The service was great. The servers are well attentive and are very friendly. I would definitely come back for the service and food. However, compared to a typical Chinese restaurant, you don't get any Chinese desserts like the red bean soup or even orange slices that I'm used to after a Chinese meal. :( not a deal breaker but bummer haha

    This review is based on take out only. Treasure has easy online ordering. We ordered the vegetable chow mein and signature green bean with eggplant dishes. Pick up was easy with parking available. Their restaurant sign and restaurant is easily visible off the street. Service was friendly and very pleased to see a custom bag for the takeout order. The ambiance of the front of the restaurant is classy. The dishes were in plastic containers. Both dishes had very good flavor. I can see why the green bean and eggplant dish is one of their signature dishes. Their chow mein is also good but I was looking for more vegetables given that the price of the vegetable chow mein is the same as a protein based chow mein. Overall, a satisfying meal.

    "Palette Tea Garden and Dim Sum" is an upscale Chinese restaurant located in the North Mall of the…read moreHillsdale Shopping Center. I had the pleasure of having lunch here on a Friday afternoon. We were a party of three, with a reservation for 12 noon. It was my first time here, but my niece had been to Palette several times. So she knew the best tables and how to order. We were seated in a booth towards the back near the kitchen. There was a steady flow of staff walking by. Anytime you needed something, you just ask someone. We decided to order a variety of dim sum, the Signature Peking Duck (half), and the Pan Seared Seafood Noodles. Everything was delicious. The presentation of the Peking Duck was beautiful. They used momo pancakes instead of steamed bao. It's not a duck chopped in half. It's an offering of crispy thin duck skin, with chunks of boneless duck meat underneath. Served with cucumber, radlish, scallions and hoisin sauce. I think my favorite dim sum was the Yuzu Walnut Prawn Puff. Crunchy fried prawns w/ yuzu sauce, and candied walnuts. It's considered an elevated modern dish. Don't forget to check out the koi pond with live fish on the community table top. Free parking in mall lot. I parked on the roof and took the escalator directly down to the restaurant.

    This place is terrific! They had so many delicious dishes, we ordered nearly everything (the pics…read moreonly show some of them). The prix fixe menu (meant for 4 people) is a FEAST. We ordered à la carte dishes on top of that but we ended up canceling many because the prix fixe menu was PLENTY. My favorites were the beef, duck wraps (you assemble it kind of like a burrito), all the dumplings, fried rice, and mapo tofu which was surprisingly a big hit with our crowd. I wasn't a fan of the taro shrimp puffs (pictured here, they look like black swans). They weren't very flavorful. It's a very nice space. There's even one table where there are actual goldfish swimming down the middle of it! The bathrooms are clean, though absolutely freezing cold. The staff was wonderful and answered all our questions. It's located within the Hillsdale Mall, which is convenient because we could walk off our lunch afterwards and shop.
