Food is good for Dim Sum on weekends. However, we noticed on several occassions (after observing very carefully) that people who appeared to be friends/acquaintenances of the operators of the restaurant (all Chinese) were always seated ahead of number-carrying patrons in queue. Without exception. This made us a bit suspicious since these people (a) never took a number, (b) waltzed right in, laughed, joked, then sat down, (c) could not have had a reservation since China Village told us that they don't do that as a practice. Maybe we misread the situation.

This is a Hong-Kong restaruant. On the expensive side. Most entries are priced even higher than May Flowers in Milpitas. We tried salted spicy spare pork ribs ($9.00), and it was excellent. A mix vegetable dish ($8.00) was just average. Sea food soup ($8.00) was very good, but with too much starch. Good and clean table cloth. If the price can go down 1 to 2 dollars per dish, it will be our favorite.

I went here on a "whim" to celebrate a friends birthday. The atmosphere is certainly better than average and the food was good (curry chicken, vegitable saute, sweet and sour pork, and beef with vegetables. I found nothing exceptional. I'm sorry I did not hear about the eggplant dish sooner. Maybe next time. Parking is somewhat difficult, especially on a rainy night.

This is the place to go for Dim Sum on the Pennisula. We go there nearly once a month and always lament leaving when more items come out of the kitchen that we haven't tried yet, but are too full to eat. The braised asparagus spears and the crusted prawns are special items that we really enjoy.

Excellent food, courteous, efficient service. We had the Lemon chicken, beef blackbean chow fun and Hunan eggplant. A large presence of older Chinese patrons attest to the quality of the food. Excellent menu. I've heard that the Dim Sum is excellent. We plan to go back. Plenty of free parking in the back.

Good food and nice decoration. I have tried the eggplant which is nice. Friendly waiter and good service. Besides the restaurant is located close to Oracle building.

This is our regular take-out eat-in Chinese place. Seafood is usually very-well handled. Great dishes with oysters & crabs. Their Hunan braised eggplant is among the best I've had. Nice atmosphere, often excellent service except when the huge round tables are filled with families. Then, sometimes the couple eating in the corner can feel a little lonely and ignored. Never a bad dish, and rarely less than excellent.
