Really tasty dim sum. Generally speaking--just try as much dim sum as you can! They are tasty little morsels with surprising flavors and really hearty--most are fried or steamed, and they have very American-friendly flavors. Though some dishes on the dim sum menu look a little suspect--but that's part of the aventure! Stay away from the beef noodle soup--the beef quality is poor--but the broth is tasty. Overall-- it was super delicious, and I cant' wait to go back--Very good prices for what you get--they fill you up, so don't worry about not having enough food!! Enjoy!

No doubt , Kon Chau offers the best dimsum in this side of the burbs. But don't limit yourself to just dimsum. Their noodle dishes are amazing , esp the beef noodle soup. My seafood favs clams in black bean sauce, salt pepper shrimp ( unpeeled w/ heads), and succulent peking shrimp. Chinese brocolli in oyster sauce is simply prepared and oh so delicious ( pricey at $7.00) . Stay away from duck dishes ( too tough). In your visit to the place, you may chance upon some cooks and waiters having a meal. See what they're having , they usually eat the tastiest meals.

I have been going to Kon Chau for years and love it! They have an extensive list of dim sum choices, and beat the dim sum in San Fran and NY's Chinatowns (and is very inexpensive). The interior decor (or lack of it) doesn't bother most of the regulars (it sort of adds to it's appeal in a strange way), but may turn some off. If you're looking for ambience, go somewhere else, but if you're looking for awesome dim sum and are all about the food and the company you're with...then you'll be in heaven! Some favorites are the sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaf, sesame balls, chinese broccoli in oyster sauce and pork buns. Note to those allergic to shrimp: most of the dim sum contains shrimp in some form or another, so when I found out I was allergic to shrimp, I had to cut out most of their offerings, but the staff was very helpful in helping me figure out what was "shrimp free" so that I could keep enjoying their awesome food!

Very good, very cheap dim sum. Similar quality to Tropical Chinese (which is a block away) at a smaller price, but lesser atmosphere. Also, there are no dim sum carts, but rather a checklist style menu.

Cheap cheap cheap. Even with the recent price increase, eating dim sum at Kon Chau is wildly inexpensive. $4 something for a duck soup, a good one. Try taro cakes, pan-fried pork dumplings, chicken and mushroom buns, eggplant and shrimp paste. Pretty much no vegetarian options and sometimes it's mixed, but otherwise good Chinese.
