    We were a party of 4, and was seated next to a picturesque window with a view of the Bay Bridge and San Francisco skyline. Unfortunately it was a foggy day, and views of the Golden Gate and San Rafael bridges were obscured. Servers were very attentive and the food was fantastic! I have eaten dim sum in the Richmond and Sunset districts, down the peninsula and Hong Kong East Ocean is my favorite spot due to their wide selection and variety of foods. I highly recommend this restaurant if you are looking for great food with a view!

    The dim sum was great; a little slow in arriving but all was hot and felt right off the grill. I miss the serving carts, but they did come around with some trays, but their preferred method of ordering was by one’s cell phone. A huge place and very busy so you know it’s authentic
