    Great service! They are super fast and friendly. They get really busy so they want to get you in and out but without feeling rushed.

    I really enjoyed the fried shrimp balls and the BBQ pork bun. We ordered the fried shrimp balls to go therefore I didn't capture a photo.

    Everything in the photo i.e. siu Mai, shrimp dumpling (har gow), tripe, pork ribs, chicken feet, etc. tasted ok not the best but okay and very fresh. Some dimsum places their shrimp dishes don't taste fresh.

    Parking is limited and they get busy so I recommend getting there early when they open.

    I've been to the Newark location of Saigon Seafood, and have to say, this location is hands down much better in terms of both food and the service provided by the waiters/waitresses.

    I came here on a Sunday night with family, and there was no wait for a table. We were orginally seated on a smaller table, but upon ordering, thye had asked us if we would like a bigger table because we ordered quite a few items. We said yes, and they prepared a bigger table for us.

    The food here was fresh and really flavorful, full of great herbs and cooked really well. The chefs here are much better than at Newark. We ordered House Fried Rice, Sauteed Angus Beef & Egg Tofu, Braised Vegetables, Salt & Pepper Calamari, Fresh California Crab and all of it was wonderful and fresh!

    The customer service was great as well, our server Simon was great and made sure to check up on us frequently. Would return to this location of Saigon for sure!

    Dim sum are getting popularity and that mean every city in the bay will have its favorite dim sum place and this city is no exception.

    1) True dim sum: in order to call a true dim sum place , you must have carts pushing around for customers to see and select. Also, you need to have all the basic dim sum dishes plus some special  that make you stand out

    2) Food/ Quality: The food was delicious and fresh as it travel from one corner of the restaurant to the another corner. The color, smell and the taste were good. The down fall on some of the dishes need to cool down 10% before it serve or else the food is to soft to enjoy.

    3) Service: All servers were great. Very attentive and quick response to the customers need.

    4) Price: The estimated priced per persons is around $20 to $30. And it really depend on what you order. My average is around $35 to $45 per person.

    5) Decor: you can tell if it's a good dim sum place by looking at the decoration. Two things that will stand out. A) they have a live fish tank for sea food B) They are a seafood restaurant .

    Overall, this was a great experience. So all your foodies that love try new food or are into dim sum, go check it out and let me know what you think.

    Saying this place is decent is an overstatement. Their dim sum is not fresh or good. I would probably say this is one of the worst dim sum places I've tried. They should rename their restaurant to begon to warn all their customers.

    Ya know... it's a decent place for dim sum in CoCo county. If you don't wanna make the trek into the city for more "glamorous" dim sum, then this place will most certainly fit the bill.

    Met up with some friends here for lunch on a Sunday afternoon and the place was bustling! This place is flippin' HUGE! The interior is sooo spacious! There are plenty of tables inside but it still gets packed like no other. The parking is also really difficult. The parking lot is insanely small and street parking is pretty limited. Your best bet is to get there early or find parking in the next shopping center and walk over if you can't find a spot in their lot.

    As far as their selections go, I'd say it's pretty standard. We ordered the following:

    *Deep fried stuffed crab claw
    *Shanghai pork dumplings
    *BBQ pork buns
    *Sesame balls
    *Turnip cake
    *Chinese broccoli
    *Meat & chive cake
    *Chinese pancakes
    *Shrimp stuffed tofu
    *Shrimp har gow

    Starting with the standouts of the bunch: Sesame balls, shrimp har gow, & shrimp stuffed tofu. Those sesame balls were on HIT!! They were crispy on the outside and filled with that lovably moist red bean on the inside. I may be biased, but I just freakin' LOVE me some sesame balls. They're one of my absolute faves!

    The shrimp stuffed tofu was really yummy. I'm not really a fan of tofu but this tofu was super soft and the flavors of the shrimp were spot on. I've had to say that my favorite of the bunch was the shrimp har gow. Also a dim sum fave of mine, this har gow was tender and perfectly executed. I almost at this whole damn thang by myself! So good!

    My least faves were the deep fried stuffed crab claw and the Chinese pancakes. The deep fried claw was super rubbery and the consistency just threw everything off. I literally couldn't even eat this. The Chinese pancake was far from a green onion pancake. It too was kind of rubbery and it tasted really weird. I couldn't put my finger on it, but something about it just didn't taste right. Def wasn't my fave. I felt that everything else was pretty average.

    Service was actually really good. They came around to our table several times with tons of food carts. We actually had to start refusing some of the carts because our table was full of dim sum! Also, we had to ask for new hot tea. Not sure what the hell kind of tea that they served up the first time around, but it tasted like pure sh*t. Go glad that they were able to give us different tea because the other tea tasted disgusting. All in all, it was a pretty good dim sum experience but far from the best that I've had. Maybe I'll have a better experience next time around.
