I will be trying out their 3rd restaurant location in Milpitas this coming Friday (1/25) with another banquet type food and am waiting anxiously to see if this one will outdo the other two restaurants! Customers will love at least two of their three restaurants with quality food with reasonable price range at comfortable high end seatings! The multi-course meal was served fairly timely and still piping hot! This is amazing considered there were a total of 8 tables needed the same food, and the restaurant also has regular customers on a busy Friday of a long holiday weekend!! □ I was seated at one of 8 tables of 10 at a private room where the environment was quiet and spacious. Had the best banquet dinner food on Friday, 1/18/19, at the 2nd best Dim Sum Seafood Restaurant with family and friends (the first best restaurant is located in Daly City and that one already is proven to be excellent on dim sum and seafood meals).

Plus, I loved that the dim sum actually came out in bamboo steaming baskets, a rarity in American dim sum restaurants, which usually use metal steamers because they’re easier to clean. For instance, the shrimp dumplings were cleanly folded. Also, attention to preparation and detail were evident in the food that arrived. The dishes were fresh-tasting and lighter-after all, less seasoning is required to mask fresher ingredients.

Koi Palace’s selection of teas had quite a few unusual kinds, so we opted for the ginseng jasmine tea (花旗香片) and Japanese rice flower tea (日本米花). ![]() The restaurant had a good selection of dishes, ranging from the usual dim sum entrees to Northern Chinese dishes like clay pot buns (not part of the standard pricing). Koi Palace’s dim sum menu is divided into 4 price ranges, with each dish categorized by “size” (actually driven by the cost of ingredients):Īlso, as a standard practice, there’s a tea or “sitting” fee, $1/person. The total bill came out to $133 for a party of 6, about $21 per person, which is actually a lot by dim sum standards. We paid a pretty penny for the dim sum we ate at Koi Palace. Instead, everything is ordered via paper and pencil. ![]() There are no carts pushed around the restaurant. Higher end dim sum places are distinguished from their cheaper peers by ordering method. Unfortunately, the confusing freeways led us to miss the exit, and we instead ended up driving to Dublin. The night before, we had decided to grab our final brunch at Koi Palace in Daly City. It’s quite popular, so expect a wait get in for brunch during the weekends. There are actually two of them, one in Dublin (on the outer fringes of East Bay, and the original in Daly City, south of San Francisco. Koi Palace (鯉魚門御膳茶寮) is one of the Bay Area’s most well known higher end dim sum restaurants frequented by immigrant crowds.
