Hongde Gourmet | Three Ways to Enjoy King Crab at $29.99/lb

My family recently came here to celebrate my dad's birthday. It's our first time here for dinner, but we've been here countless times for dim sum which is pretty solid. They were doing a king crab promotion at $29.99/lb. So my parents who love king crab wanted to go check it out. It was pretty busy for a Wednesday night, but the king crab promotion was probably what drove in the crowd. Service was very slow given there was only a few waiters working. We ordered the kind crab, and our waitress brought the crab out for us to see, stating that it's 8.8 lbs. It's not my first time having king crab, and I've bought live whole king crabs plenty of times from the fish market. The crab our waitress brought out didn't look anywhere near 8.8 lbs. I was pretty skeptical about the weight of the crab, it looked maybe 7 lbs at most to me. Then she asked if we wanted to cook it 3-ways, and suggested noodles in the shell, egg yolk for the knuckles, and garlic vermicelli steamed legs. We excitedly agreed to her suggestion. She then proceeded to recommend a red grouper fish, a chicken dish, and a couple of veggie dishes. The food came out very slow because they happened to have a big party in another section of the restaurant. We were starving by the time our food came. We had to wait almost 20 mins between each dish. And the king crab we received was beyond disappointing. The crab dishes were super small, no way the same crab our waitress showed us. And definitely not even 6 lbs of crab. They absolutely pulled a switcheroo on us. It's a total scam, and we're disgusted by the level of greed and dishonesty. Also, all the suggestions she made for the 3-way crab dishes was an additional upcharge that she didn't bother to mention. The additional was $44! And on top of that, she didn't mention the market price of the red grouper, which was $47.99/lb. The fish itself was $115! The rest of the food was unremarkable, and the veggies almost inedible. They also automatically tacked on 18% gratuity. So our whole meal was outrageous and disappointing. Never again.

This review is for their dim sum only. Came on a Sunday around noon for dim sum, and the wait was around 20-30 mins. Once we sat down, service was fast but could be more attentive. There is a small parking lot at the back. I liked that they have a wide menu to enjoy, and the decor was nice too. We opted for 10ish dim sum items to share, and I gotta say, the portions were big. Here are the items that I really enjoyed: shumai, beef tripe, rice rolls, and hom sui gok. The biggest complaint would be the dumpling skins, they were all too thick and tough. And some of the fillings were def under seasoned. Also, I probably wouldn't recommend any of their truffle items, the truffle flavor was unnoticeable. You probably can skip the scallop dumplings too. Wise to save your money elsewhere. We also got to try their Chiu Chou Fun Gor (潮州粉粿), not gonna lie, I was kinda excited to try it. I don't think lots of dim sum places have them. But unfortunately, we didn't enjoy the flavor as much as expected....and again, the skin was on the chewy side too. Oh and I would recommend double checking your order when items arrive, since they messed up some of our items. Considering this being a Michelin guide restaurant, I felt like this was not even one of the top dim sum options in the area.

This is my 4th time here and I'm disappointed this time. The food quality has gone down and be became more expensive. They charge tea by head count per table; other restaurants do not usually charge for tea when going out for dim sum in California. The tea was not even that good and when it is low, they just pour hot water into the teapot, making the tea diluted. We ordered the Siu Mai, Rice Cake, Taro Cake, Shrimp Dumplings, Shrimp Crepe, BBQ Pork Crepe, BBQ Buns, and Beef Tripe. The only thing that was worth mentioning is the Siu Mai. Their Siu Mai is a lot bigger then other dim sum places and tasted good. Do not get the shrimp crepe. It was a big blob of flavorless white crepe with a few shrimps on it. Service was not that great. Staff would see empty plates and wouldn't take it away. They never even asked how everything tasted and only cared towards when calling for the bill. There was plenty of empty plates and the staff just grabbed the tips and left the table. Save your money and go to other Dim Sim restaurants.
