Dim Sum King Master West Covina Reviews
This place to be a dim sum king and master. So let’s see if they’re pretty good eh or ew. They’re family owned and operated and got some awesome deals. I got their xiu mai, sesame balls, beef chow fun, cha shao rice, honey baked cha shao bao, and cha shao bolo bao to try. Can you tell I like cha shao? Anywaysss Their xiu mai was MASSIVE, perfectly juicy, bouncy, and umami. The sesame balls had a crisp nutty exterior with a chewy mochi interior and had plenty of sweet red bean filling. The beef chow fun had bouncy noodles, good wok hey, and lots of meat but could use a bit more salt. The cha shao rice could’ve used more meat but what there was was super tender, flavorful, umami, perfectly sweet and savory. The honey baked chashao bao had more of that amazing cha shao inside with a nice chewy, pillowy, sweet, bready bun. Same with the cha shao bolo but I liked it more cuz it had an extra flakey, buttery, sweet cookie top that made the contrast between the sweet bun and savory cha shao even better. Overall this place is pretty good. Xiu mai $5.68 Sesame balls $5.38 Beef chow fun $13.99 Cha shao rice $9.99 Honey baked cha shao bao $5.38 Cha shao bolo bao $5.68 $46.10
OK this little place that I visited a week ago with my Cantonese friend is turning me Cantonese!!! Normally I am more into spicy Chinese food and not much on savory congee...I tried a few bites and I am HOOKED! Drove 35 mins again to have some more. It will be my local Cantonese go to place for sure. Definitely try the fish congee. They are freshly made and yummy! If you are not a fish kind of person, they have the beef and chicken version too. I tried the chicken one too. The egg tarts were so good too. You can tell from the layers of crispiness that it is of quality and thoughtfulness. My kid loves the red bean paste filled sesame balls too. On top of that, the service is warm and homey. Definitely recommend!
Ah man, this is good. Im eating it right now, this is the best. Beancurd roll with pork in oyster sauce, deep fried shui mai, and sesame balls. Friendly owners, clean place, nice music.
I’m glad I visited DimSum King Master Glendora/West Covina.The hospitality vibe is great though some staff are still learning but they’re very open minded and apologetic.I came here for real authentic Chinese dimsum and I was not frustrated at all.Every bite is tasty.The owner/chef was very accommodating.We will come back soon.
A+ food sizes freshness and over all the flavor was amazing

Finally good dim sum in my area! Better value than fast food and way more delicious.
I love Dim Sum king Master! It is my to go place for Dim Sum every week and Shu Mai is my absolute favorite. Izzie and Joanna are my girls from Dim Sum king...they always take very good care of me and make sure that my order is correct and ready for pickup! They are the best!
I LOVE DIM SUM KING MASTER. Best items are the haim suk gok, siu mai, and their rice noodle rolls which are different then a lot of other shops and more thin. The rice noodle rolls are made fresh. A must-try is the pineapple buns which are also freshly made and are always very warm and fluffy. Last recommendation, is their thai tea. This is my go-to place for dim sum. Support small businesses!!
Of all the restaurants in the HK plaza, this is my favorite spot to dine. The food is delicious and the service is very friendly. They have so many unique and traditional dishes. My favorites are the chicken feet, shumai, and the duck of course. Glad I found this gem and I’m looking forward to coming back.
Ordered take out here and it was fast and reasonably priced! We also got a free Thai tea for ordering $20 and more. Definitely check them out! We'll be back!
First time eating at Dim Sum King Master today. Went in right at opening, Joanna was absolutely amazing with Mom and I . Food was hot, fresh, and tasty . Service is attentive and positive attitude. Definitely heading back soon.

All around excellent place for Chinese food. My friend brought me here and knows the owner personally. The owner and staff are very welcoming to us and other customers. Food is excellent and leaves us full every time. Highly recommend visiting when in the area.
I like the siumai, just have to ask for the mustard and chili oil. Service is good, will definitely be back.
We had a cozy, pleasant meal here, and at roughly $50 for three people, it was a pretty good value. Our favorite item was the char siu rice rolls, which had thin sheets with perfect silky texture, and excellent flavor. The siu mai was plump and juicy with a nice bit of shiitake mushroom and no chunks of fat fillers. We were also impressed by the salt and pepper fish; the coating was light and crispy, while the fish was mild and tender inside. I enjoyed the subtle salted flavor of this dish, but to be fair since it is called "salt and pepper" fish, it was a little light on the seasoning. The chicken feet had a unique, sweet star anise flavor that I was not used to. Unfortunately, we did not enjoy this. The steamed pork ribs were tender, but mild in taste. I can't even remember what this tasted like anymore. We were already planning to order the stir fried soy sauce noodles, so it was a nice surprise when we learned that with their current promotion, It was complimentary for spending over $30. The noodles itself was missing that dry, 'wok hei' touch and included some non-traditional carrots. The flavor was still good while hot, but felt soggy towards the end. The brown sugar sponge cake was a complete disappointment, which was dense and rubbery. I typically make this homemade from scratch and was thinking I could get a good comparison. Would not recommend. I do think they made this fresh to order for us, and it came out within 20 minutes, which is impressive? Despite the poor product. I would probably still come back here if I was in the area shopping and craving dimsum.
Came on a busy Sunday around 1pm, and they seemed a bit short-staffed but still delivered great food. Everything was hot and flavorful! Har gow and shiu mai were perfect, and the string beans were amazing.
Good food. Our waiter and waitress were both very patient. All dishes were served promptly.

Really good place. Kind of average dim sum place. Nothing really stood out
No mustard, no chilly, no hot tea served along with dim sum, kinda strange. Dim sum tasted ok. Fried shumai is very dry.

I'm unsure if they really know how to cater to people. When we (my wife and I) walked in to an almost empty restaurant during the lunch hour, a nice young lady hollers from across the room, "how many." LOL, it's obvious that "2" is how many. Here's where the fun beginds. After we seated ourselves, it took 8+ minutes to bring a menu, and then another 12 minutes to return to take our order, and, and, aaannndd, another 14+ minutes to bring our food. My wife was upset and wanted to leave, because we were in a hurry. The food; mine was duck and pork with rice, hers fried rice. It was was plentiful, but exceptionally bland. The prices were low medium $$ compared to other restaurants. When asked what we wanted to drink, we both asked for water, but received nothing. OUR SERVER NEVER CAME BACK. That's right, she had no interest in our welfare as a customer. No interest if the quality of the food met our expectations or if we wanted anything else. Okay, Fun, fun, gun... I mean, (im clearing my throat), fun... See if you had this experience. We felt like we had been crawling through the desert for hours, you know, dying of thirst, parched throat. Whew, and then someone with a jug of ice cold water, YELLS, "WOULD YOU LIKE SOME WATER?" And asking if they can help. YES, P L EASE, and the person says ok, but never comes back. Lol. Nope, she never came back. Neither she, nor the food, would cause us to ever return. Amen
Word of advice, your customers are multicultural people who are interested in exploring your ethnic cuisine. Many people are willing to pay a good price for your products. Try to create a relevant window- menu, food that you actually sell.
The food was not hot enough. The chicken feet dimsum was hard. The food was not freshly made. It was our first time here and it was very disappointing. I'm sorry. Very few customers too
Bad service. No one cares to take your order - scrambled with an order of table of 2 persons and not even busy. Too busy cleaning up a table than taking care of customer. And took too long to get an order out the door. Egg yolk buns were dried and not consistent in size. Order was mixed with one same size as an egg. Egg custard taste wasn't good.
The delivery service was absolutely horrible, I am assuming the staff are busy with in-store customers, leaving no time to check the online orders. You never get what you’ve ordered online, and they don’t apologize for their mistake of not checking the order info before handing to the delivery guy. What a joke!
