A server glides a dim sum cart between tables at 888 Seafood in Rosemead.


The waiters wear bow ties, the way they do back in Hong Kong -- that's one sign that this is not the usual cramped, noisy dim sum joint. A classic Valley Boulevard seafood palace during the week, it draws an upscale clientele on weekends with exceptional dim sum, including Shanghai steamed dumplings, pork-stuffed rice noodles and taro buns that melt in your mouth. Tip: Get there before 11 a.m., because it fills up fast.

Great food. On Sunday, get there before 10 a.m. and you'll be seated in 10 minutes. Courteous, pleasant service. As non-aisans we felt extremely welcome. Staff couldn't have been more friendly. Extra parking is always available on the street. It is the best!

I no longer go there for dimsum. the food is great, but the service, and the waiting is horrible. We waiting two hours for a table, we would wait longer if the hostress actually abides to the waiting rules. For the last hour of the two hour period we waited..not one table was called even when table after table were being setting up. They seat people whom' without any tickets in first (because they made a scene), as well as the staffs' famililes/relatives who came in way way after.
