Spacious dim sum spot with classic meat & seafood entrees
"While they haven’t announced a formal Lunar New Year special, this iconic dim sum restaurant (with locations in both Beverly Hills and the San Gabriel Valley) serves all sorts of excellent Chinese dishes perfect for ringing in the new year. Must-orders include the particularly meaty shrimp har gow, rice noodles with XO sauce, and fluffy, steamed BBQ pork bao that are sure to bring good luck - at least for the next fifteen seconds. Available for takeout, and call their San Gabriel location at (626) 288-1899 or their one in Beverly Hills at (310) 855-1234 to place an order." - kat hong
"What To Order: Shrimp Har Gow, Steamed BBQ Pork Bun, Sesame Balls Capital Seafood is a classic SGV dim sum spot with several branches, including one down in Irvine, but the location in Beverly Hills holds a special title: home of the best dim sum west of DTLA. Dining here means being fully aware that you’re in Beverly Hills, with luxury sports cars parked outside and suited business types taking lunch meetings over baked custard buns. Overall, the kitchen does a great job replicating the textures and flavors you’d find at their original restaurant in Monterey Park. The steamed dumplings burst the moment you bite through their wrapper, the barbecue pork buns are light and pillowy, and the siu mai are as plump as they come. It also doesn't hurt that Capital Seafood is one of the cheapest high-quality lunch spots you'll find in this part of town." - garrett snyder, brant cox, fiona chandra, sylvio martins
"For just $15, get a three-course lunch at Capital Seafood Beverly Hills. Start with hot and sour soup and vegetable egg rolls before choosing from mains including orange chicken, kung pao chicken, salt and pepper pork chop, and beef and broccoli." - Rebecca Roland
"Capital Seafood is a classic SGV dim sum chain with a massive location in Beverly Hills. If you only order one thing here, make sure it’s the Peking duck. This juicy platter of poultry gets rubbed with five-spice, which brings out the meat’s rich, fatty flavor. Its slow-roasted skin is so crispy and golden-brown, you’d think it spent an afternoon in a lifeguard chair. And each precisely carved slice shatters into pleasantly crispy pieces with every bite. You’ll also get a classic platter of pillowy bao buns, scallion matchsticks, and hoisin sauce to go along with it. " - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren
"A bit of a Chinese food gem located pretty far west of San Gabriel Valley, Capital Seafood has a $35 dinner with a soup starter, egg roll or potsticker appetizer, and a dozen options of classic dishes, like roast duck, General Tso’s chicken, and crispy orange beef. There’s mango pudding for dessert." - Matthew Kang
