Golden Palace Banquet Hall

Everything is good except that male manager who wears in black. I can see that he walks around, pretending working and ignoring me.

The Fried Sweet Potato Balls (紫薯流心煎堆), these little treats were nothing short of stunning. They have mastered deep frying to perfection, resulting in sweet potato balls that were wonderfully crispy on the outside and soft and sweet on the inside.

The Steamed Siu Mai (魚子燒賣皇) portion size was quite generous. These dumplings leaned more towards the meaty side. The overall taste was satisfying. If you're a fan of meat-filled siu mai, you won't be disappointed.

One dish that didn't quite meet my expectations was the Mince Beef with Egg Clay Pot Rice (窩蛋牛肉煲仔飯). While the flavors were okay, the use of a clay pot with a coating resulted in a missing element—the burnt crispy rice on the bottom. Traditional clay pot rice is known for its deliciously crispy layer, which adds an extra dimension to the dish. Unfortunately, this version lacked that characteristic. Considering its price, it still wasn't a complete letdown.

One aspect that might pose a challenge for English speakers is the menu. The English version was not as intuitive or easy to comprehend compared to the Chinese menu. But it's worth noting that the staff was friendly and willing to assist, but having a more user-friendly English menu would enhance the dining experience for non-Chinese speakers.

Idk why my family likes this place, but they do, so I can’t give it 1 star, but the food was mediocre, and the staff were TERRIFYING. Trying to eat when they at you is a challenge. I try to actively avoid this place when I can because the amount of terror and stress is similar to having an essay worth 30% of your grade due in a week and you haven’t even started yet. I’ve seen less hostility in COD lobbies full of 13 year old bigoted boys. It’s like the owner decided to hire their entire team based on who is most likely to stop an active robbery situation. I feared for my life when I was trying to order some ice water. I am very glad that my mom/godmom order for the entire family when we’re here.

I understand businesses are impacted by inflation just as much as families that’s why we accept the 12% surcharge/tip. Now when you also charge $2 tea fee per child under 10 and only accept cash then that’s greedy. On to the next dim sum place - lost a customer bye bye and unfortunate for staff if this place goes down under.

Attend a wedding banquet, food quality is average but big portion (10 people portion could serve 12), service acceptable.

Dim sum prices are too high for this sub-par quality.
$8 for a small plate of curry cuttle fish.
They also automatically at 12% tip now.

With these prices, I’d rather go to Skyview (near Costco) where the dishes are much higher quality.

Have been there for brunch, lunch and dinner. The quality of food was great. Good value especially if you go there for dim sum before 11am.

Dim sum was okay, and service was friendly and attentive.

The place was not overly crowded at lunch time on Saturday, but the plaza is very busy and it took us some time to find parking.

Dinner was delicious and staff is great. Lots to choose from their menu. Love deep fried pork with seasoned salt. Great for family meals or special events.
