Tang Gong Seafood Restaurant — Restaurant in Monterey Park

Overall, the eight of us enjoyed the food very much. The steamed spareribs were a terrible disappointment. Absolutely no flavor whatsoever and I have low sodium taste buds. That was a waste of money.

We were pleasantly surprised that the food came out quickly but so odd they bought out the dessert first. She explained if we didn’t take them now, it may be a very long wait. She substituted one order of Macau egg tarts with the regular ones because that’s was all they had at the moment. She didn’t give us the option of waiting for the third one but just gave us one plate of the regular egg tarts and didn’t bother adjusting the price difference. Even though it was only $1 less, that’s besides the point. We managed to get a sever to make the adjustment after explaining twice of the situation. The staff doesn’t have a strong understanding of English.

Our server did, however, cane back to confirm an item, thinking I meant to order a similar item. He was correct. Sometimes the English description on the menu is not exactly what you think. I appreciated him being very helpful even thought he missed one item completely and it was never placed.

The staff was nice, no one had an attitude but there is still room for improvement. We would definitely come back even though we prefer...

NOT a fancy place, but very good food for dinner!

Dinner food was excellent, with nice crisp vegetables in the dishes and nicely cooked food, plus for no apparent reason we received a bonus dish (entire plate) of fried chicken for free!

Ordered a pork-belly dish, chow fun, scallop & shrimp & sugar-snap peas, fish maw soup. When you add in the free fried chicken, what was enough food for two meals for three people came out to just over $100 before tip.

Be warned that the place is not fancy, and dinner had few diners even on a Saturday night; the lights were actually turned off over much of the restaurant. This restaurant deserves to have more customers!

Also be warned that ordering consists of marking up a paper menu. The Chinese and the English descriptions of the dishes aren't necessarily lined up with the boxes where you mark the quantities, so be careful that you clearly indicate which...

this is a new chinese restaurant that is located at where empress harbor used to be… the dim sums are not at one price for small, medium, large… so i felt more skeptical to order compared to the other ones i typically go with my parents on sundays… they try to have more innovative dim sum choices… but i dun think i like them… i prefer the traditional choices given how they dun seem to be very well made… the dim sum all seem to have collected condensation and not piping hot… the worst part of the experience is that i found a piece of blue fiber from one of those scotch dish scrub sponge in the skin of the shrimp dumpling… i told the staff about it… and they all try to tell me is just the green asparagus… ” not think i'm impressed...
