Longo Seafood Restaurant

Of all the dim sum restaurants I’ve tried in Los Angeles, I’ve never seen such eye-poppingly large pieces of dim sum as the ones produced at Rosemead’s Longo Seafood. The per-item menu prices might run on the higher side, but the restaurant delivers in terms of bang for your buck with heftily portioned har gow, siu mai, pork buns and other classic items. Nothing disappointed me here, and I appreciated the presence of hot almond milk soufflé on the menu—a comforting puff pastry-topped dessert soup that contains gingko nuts. Entrées like the lobster noodles and mixed seafood chow mein were also faithfully executed, while the slightly glitzy interiors add a touch of a class to a meal here. It’s also worth noting the restaurant takes reservations, unlike many dim sum joints.
