NBC Seafood: Exceptional Cantonese Dim Sum & Fresh Seafood in Monterey Park

Dim Sum is good, and the service is okay. It’s not as busy as it used to be on Friday early before lunch time if you want to order some food you have to be there after 11 because the kitchen opens at 11 o'clock.

Came here with my work family for lunch and we got one of their many FAMILY LUNCH set menus. They have 8 different ones on their website. They told us we did have to add more $$ bc it wouldn’t be enough food. So we did add a couple of dishes too and it was way too much food for 12 people. The pricing initially was pretty good for 10 items too. They will add service fee already for a large party. But good came pretty quick during weekday lunch hour. $338.00 僅限午餐 Lunch Only 點心: Dim Sum Platter 蝦餃 蟹皇燒賣 三絲春卷 百花蔗蝦 Har Gow ,Sui Mai, Egg Roll and Shrimp Paste on sugar Cane 雞絲魚肚羹 Chicken with Fish Maw Soup 京都片皮鴨 Roasted Whole Peking Duck 碧綠魚柳 Pan Fried Fish Fillet with Vegetable ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FREE Parking is a large shared lot with other businesses in the area but if you don’t mind walking 30 seconds, you’ll find parking everywhere that is not 5 steps from the entrance. Restrooms were pretty bright and clean. Service overall was decent too. We did have to keep asking for hot tea to be refilled and for waters bc they were not as attentive once we started eating. Overall - still a pretty good meal even if you’re not just eating dimsum. The interior is very large with lots of tables of various sizes.

Bring your appetite to NBC! Vibrant restaurant with great service and delicious dim sum I loved the pork shu mai, and Shrimp rolls the most. The veggies like the broccoli were so crisp and tasty with the oyster sauce and chilli sauce. Recommend getting hot tea with your meal. It gets packed so parking can be difficult at times especially with a gym being in the same plaza. Would go again any time.

Looking for a restaurant that served dimsum and came across NBC, and after reading the reviews and seeing some customer photos, we decided to try it as well. Very glad we did! The food was amazing! The whole experience with the service carts was a little confusing and overwhelming at first since there was no intro or waiter present but we figured it out in the end. Once we figured it out, everything else flowed perfect. Definitely going back to experience their menu further

Great venue for large events and small groups or couples. Hosts multiple wedding or memorial dinners in private rooms. Platters for each table of ten guests. Incredible food options.

Best dim sum I've had outside of China and Taiwan! There is a wait, and they don't take reservations, but the food is fresh and delicious. You do have to be somewhat proactive to get the dishes you want, but you never wait long for the carts to pass by. Prices were very reasonable. I'd definitely come back!

I remember coming here in the 80s as a kid and enjoying this. I haven't been here since then given the dim sum choices thats evolved in SGV and found new favorites. The draw of coming recently was the boasts of hot carts, especially since Covid, all dim sum places have switched out from this model and you have to order in advance. So Sunday parking was madness, but found eventually. I was surprised that by 1030, we didn't have to wait and was walked in to a table of 4 and wow is that place huge! Got sat to the back room and got excited for cart pushing commotion. We found the food taste to be ok, actually bland and that even the accompanying hot sauces were watered down. Our initial waiter had an attitude problem and I was happy staff is well rotated and quick to respond. The ladies pushing carts are very sweet and explain with patience all of their choices in their cart and regularly kept it moving and coming by. My two beefs about hot cart experience was the lack thereof for the daikon cake and Chinese broccoli options...they had it already cooked and sitting in cart. It sounds old timey, but i enjoyed seeing them cook it tableside back in the day. I couldn't order fried rice or chow mein until after 11 and the mango pudding seemed like a box special make. Despite all this, I would consider coming back to show friends who want to try and experience nostalgia of hot dim sum carts.

Classic SGV Dim Sum Institution from the 80s. Been 22yrs since I last came here. Not the best Dim Sum taste. But for sure one of the last remaining cart dim sum experience. Which is what makes it worth it. And for that alone it’s worth the trip. Mostly all good - Porridge / Cha Shu Bao / Chinese Broccoli / Har Gao we’re decent. But would not recommend the mango and sesame pudding. A but artificial. Sesame balls were only OK.
