Went with some locals who said it was good and affordable. Like many authentic dim sum places it is super loud. If you are native and donât speak Chinese, be prepared for an adventure. The cart ladies are pushy (pun intended) and aggressively try to convince you that you want what is on their cart, even if you have a lot on your table already. Getting a glass of water takes an act of Congress and you know how well they are doing these days. If you ask what a particular food item is, be prepared for an answer that doesnât make a lot of sense. They have a picture menu on the table that you can point to things on which is a good safety net. It was a surprisingly good price for a decent amount of food. Be aware, during a busy lunch rush, it can look like a hurricane came through in the bathrooms.
7. Chinatown Express
Reviewed By Kcarma
Chinatown Express is in the Prado outdoor shopping center in Monterey Park. It is a step above the usual Panda Express fastfood places normally seen in the bigger malls. For under $5, you get a combo with one entrée and your choice of chow mein, fried rice or white rice OR a combo of two. I always split the rice and noodles! Gotta have both! My faves are the chasui (BBQ pork), green bean chicken, spicy tofu, and eggplant. Best to go earlier when there are more items out and fresher. Cannot beat the prices! Plus this will leave you extra $$ to shop at the Japanese store, Daiso, where almost everything is $1.50!

Duck House is a traditional Chinese Restaurant with a lot of creation and modern touch in it. Quality and presentation are our main focus. We started our business in 2003. Our Traditional Peking Duck is our Signature dish. Besides, we have different kind

Seven food and wine friends gathered in a private room on an impromptu visit to this fav San Gabriel Valley spot. We were not disappointed. We started with a round of appetizers including 2 very savory courses: cold jelly fish salad and cold flavored pork slices that tasted rich and savory. Moved right into the Peking Duck--hoisin, shredded scallions, very sweet duck meat, and crisped duck skin -- wrapped and rolled in paper thin pancakes -- so goodAt least 7 or 8 other courses followed including truffle live lobster, crispy whole rock cod served with sweet and sour sauce (my fav besides the duck) and a very fine and savory fried rice. Service was excellent--helpful and attentive without being intrusive. Oh yes we brought and opened 7 or 8 bottles of fine wine that complemented our food, including rose champagne, 2 high end Chardonnays plus a Chassagne-Montrachet, several reds--pinot noirs and syrahs, and for dessert/palate cleanser a half bottle of 1985 German Eiswein. All in twas an excellent dining experience.
5. Delicious Food Corner

Theres plenty of HK style breakfast in the SGV, but this place stands out in the least expected area. Its not like the places where you can sit and catch up with your friends. You share tables with other strangers and are whisked out when you're done eating.Theres plenty of options for brekast. They have a variety of congee and noodles to choose from. The congee is probably the best I've ever had and that might also include Asia. The raw beef congee as well as the lettuce and fish congee is really good. The pineapple bun with butter is a must try. For lunch and dinner, its pretty much the same as other places.
4. Noodle World
Reviewed By Kcarma
I finally went here based on my bro-in-law's recommendation. Huge and varied menu based on the Asian country of origin. Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese and then it breaks down into wok noodles, rice dishes, fried rice, etc. I got the hainam chicken rice dish for my mom who needed something not so spicy and it was perfect. Steamed chicken over a special rice. The pho is pretty good as well as the pad thai. The place does a brisk takeout business but the cooks are fast. I like the fact that they asked me which sauces I want. Got the usual chili paste as well as a spicy/sour clear sauce with slices of green chilis swimming around and hoisin. Would definitely order from them again! Perfect choice for the group that can't decide on Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai or Japanese food.

Excellent choice for Dim Sum in the San Gabriel Valley. It's an orderly affair (as you order from a menu) rather than by carts passing by. But it still has a very authentic feel. The dim sum is excellent, with a good variety.

This restaurant is a little hard to find but itâs worth the trouble locating it with Google Maps as the Chinese cuisines served here are uncompromisingly authentic ie not westernized - very much like those corner eateries in Asia. The Chinese cuisines served seem to be a mixture of Cantonese and Shanghainese and really delicious. Moreover the portions were really generous. The stir fries dishes and the fried rice were full of âwok heiâ (éæ°£). We were pleasantly delighted with the xiao long bao (å°ç± å ) which could give Din Tai Fung a run for their money.We were fortunate to get here before 6 pm as it got really crowded after that. Itâs a best kept secret among the residences here in Monterey Park.

From coast to coast, the dim sum are very similar. I always wish restaurants would be more creative. I was very pleased with the dim sum here. There are so many different selections in addition to the traditional ones. Everything was delicious. The service was great. The waiter always checking my teapot. Empty dishes were removed promptly. This is one of the best dim sum restaurant I have ever been to. I wished I had a bigger stomach so I can try more things. Thumbs up!
