5 Stars: My all time favorite dim sum place! (by Stella K.)

I LOVE this place!!! I have been coming here for over 20 years...ever since I was a kid. I have brought several non-asian friends to this place and they all love it as well. We have lots of banquet meals and large dinners here for special occasions and one of my close friends wants to have their wedding reception here. It has the best reputation of any dim sum restaurant in Monterey Park, which explains why the wait can be 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours on the weekends and holidays. The shrimp and seaweed wrapped eggrolls and magic rice are among some of our favorites. You can order regular dishes during dim sum hours also and there are lots of regular dishes that are exceptional here! I never say "no" when it comes to eating at this place...LOL. It's best to go during the weekdays or around 1:30-2pm during the weekends for a much shorter wait. Sometimes service is slow when it's superpacked but that's normal at any restaurant. You can also go in and order to go and have your oder ready in about 15 minutes!

4 Stars: one of the best dim sum on the east side (by Jenny K.)

i have tried lots of Dim Sum restaurant in East LA, and NBC seafood is one of the best in terms of quality/flavor. Their prices are very competitive and the portions are large. In the Ha Kao, the shrimps are huge! Service is pretty decent for a dim sum place. The only drawback is that during week end, it's so busy that the wait can take up to an hour something... so come in early! or not stomack empty.

I for one absolutely HATE dim sum so I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. However I went one night for a school related function and the food they served wasn't that bad. If you go, just go for the regular menu and not the dim sum.
