Koi Palace

Came here to catch up w her friend for her bday, definitely an upscale Chinese spot and the prices reflect that.+ huge place with lots of seating and since we came on a weekday didn't need a res, seems good for big groups or lunch spot for coworkers + nice ambiance + food was good, we got har gow, fried rice and honey walnut prawns, overall feels pretty authentic + loved the free mango custard dessert - our service was a bit slow and it felt a bit unclear who our waiter was

Reasonable dumplings & great string beans. Good service.There was a wedding next room but it was fun

Koi Palace gives off upscale fancy hotel restaurant vibes with its new updated interior and uniforms on the waiters. But it still encapsulates the bustling hectic family owned dim sum restaurant vibes. Food is nothing amazing but good dim sum. No longer does the carts and everything is ordered off a menu.Expect long waits especially at peak lunch time.

Came here yesterday with some friends for dim sum. My husband and I had never been to dim sum before so our friends did all the ordering. The restaurant was lovely and the service seemed good. We like most of the food that our friends ordered. Over all it was a very pleasant dining experience.

3.5-4 stars 5 stars for the variety of dim sum dish options- they have quite a large selection to choose from and most items come out hot and quick 4 stars for the quality -some items were only ok taste-wise (spareribs were a bit chewy vs fall off the bone and fried dough balls did not have enough filling) 3 stars for the price - quite pricey per dish 3 stars for the typical Asian restaurant cranky service -annoyed looks whenever we asked for anything like water, condiments, napkins, hot water refill for the teapot, etc.

I love Koi Palace!! This is my favorite dim sum spot in the South Bay because it hits the spot every time. My family generally gravitates towards the same dishes, but it's all very consistent each time we go. Another thing I love is that they take reservations (sometimes you do have to wait a few extra minutes), but if not the wait times can be pretty long here. Recommend dishes: - deluxe chicken with sticky rice in lotus leaf (my absolute FAVORITEEEE dish. A lot more flavorful and has a ton of filling compared to other places) - fried glutinous dumplings with pork - shiu mai (obv) - grilled chive and shrimp dumplings

How it works here - they give you a pencil and paper. Mark what you want. As simple as that. The specials came on the long receipt paper. Overall Food - decent. Good for the price Fried rice is a huge portion btw. Way too much to finish between two people. Service - mid. Waiters are not attentive to your table bc they're so busy, you'll have to flag them down for sure. The bussers are on top of it though and will actively refill water and clear your tables.

Back from Dubai and I'm craving dim sum. Yelp has Koi Palace as 3 stars however I choose to give them 4 due to great service and my party enjoyed all the food. I've been to the Daly City location but it's been years and since I was in the South Bay, why not? I'm pretty much good in ordering by looking at pictures then reading the description lol so yeah let's order it all! My favorite was the scallop dumplings and har gow which did not disappoint. This location is super clean and gets packed quick on a Sunday. Quick service and good food, what more can you ask for?

I used to frequent this place years ago when it used to be ABC/ Mayflower and I still come to this place every time I dare to deal with the wait or the parking. :)Stopped by here for a family dinner and was sure to make reservations beforehand to make it easier. Place is beautifully decorated and the service is fast and friendly. I love the variety of dishes they have and that they are always well seasoned compared to most places that are always too salty. One of my favorite dishes is the beef steak with mushroom saute. It comes with a very nice rich black bean sauce and the perfect textured, mushrooms and green beans. Though the menu is quite extensive, there's probably something for everyone on here but do know it is a little pricier but the quality is top notch. Would recommend for banquets or a special gathering.

The BEST value banquet hall for large parties in the Bay Area. I hosted a wedding banquet here for 100 people and the price, flexibility, and food were all top notch. Shoutout to Joe Xu for being the best restaurant manager!! We got Menu B which was $60 per person for 10 courses including pork, beef, duck, abalone, and custard buns. All the food came out hot and fresh for 10 tables and there was SO much food that everyone had leftovers. Joe was super responsive and accommodating to all our requests like chilling alcohol ahead of time and last minute headcount changes. No corkage fee was a big plus for us because we could get all our beverages at Costco. I highly recommend Koi Palace for all your banquet needs!
