Koi Palace Milpitas

Amazing place for dim sum, great for small and big groups, flew over from UK just for this!

Yelp review is not that good , but actually this Koi is not bad ! Skip the line go after 13:30 , should East get the table right the way!

This place is very packed unless you show up at the opening. You can make a reservation on Yelp or an app called Dinfo. Dim Sum options are good and the quality is good. View menu

The food is very good. Service is good. Jasmine tea is tasteless, I don’t like it. Highly recommend the sticky rice with crab, so delicious! You should get there at 9:50AM, they open at 10AM, very crowded, they don’t let customers write down their names before 10AM so at the opening time, everyone allows to come in as the same time.

My husband and I have tried a lot of dim sum in the Bay Area, and we ALWAYS end up coming back here -it’s just the best! The baked bbq pork buns are my absolute must have, along with the walnut prawns. Clearly the secret is out, because the wait can be long. I recommend going on a weekday, or arriving shortly before they open if you want to reduce your wait time.

One of the best dim sum places I ever had. You can find innovative flavors beyond the traditional standard dim sums. The 肠粉 is the best of the best. The roasted duck very worth the price and delicious. Everything we had was very good and delicately made. The portions were decent. The service was just okay because it is always busy. Make sure you go early or make reservation by app. We had to wait for 40 min on Saturday noon. View menu

No fuss busy spot for a pricy Dim Sum brunch. I came at around 1:30 PM on Sunday to skip the lines and we waited for about 5 minutes before getting in. Food: I recommend getting Jasmine tea with dim sum. You order on a paper menu and food comes per order. I would aim for about 2.5 dishes per person. The Fried Shrimp Ball is pretty unique here. It 's both crunchy and soft. Overall, excellent dishes at a price. I would come back for special occasions.

They had special hours for MLK day. (opening at 10:30am) It was packed when we arrived at 11:15. Luckily we were a table for 2 so they could squeeze us in at the periphery of the dining room. Service 3. Dim Sum 3 to 4.5 (depending on the dish). The filling was typically generous and shrimp-leaning (when it should have had scallop) and less artfully presented. Dining Room 4 (pretty mural and nicely lighted, although I couldn't figure out what the crazy green/red strip lighting was used to communicate along the wall booth seats) When exiting the restaurant I felt like I was transported to a food mall in Shanghai. Families with multiple generations were waiting to get into the restaurant and th...

Location in a small strip mall type place up on second floor. We were greeted and seated quickly. We got hot jasmine tea to drink so I did not ask for a drink menu. Make sure to let the tea seep for a few minutes before pouring! I am not sure if they have one but it looks like they have a full bar in the corner so would not hurt to ask! We were looking for dim sum but they had just a few dim sum plates in the appetizer section so we got an entree to share as well. We were given some complimentary peanuts to start that had some kind of sauce on them, they were very tasty! We got traditional “juicy” dumplings I believe they were called. Which was steamed pork dumplings, lots of flavor! I did n... View menu
