Hong Kong East Ocean in Emeryville - any recent info for dim sum?

[c oliver]

We have to be in Emeryville one day this week. There doesn't seem to be a ton of CH info on this spot. Sounds like a popular spot for banquets. And I saw a note that it was as expensive as Yank Sing, although looking at their website, I find plenty (dim sum and otherwise) that sounds affordable. Any opinions/info? TIA>

haven't been to H.K. east ocean for awhile. dim sum's pretty good. expect waits on weekends to be more than an hour.

for cheap eats, try saigon seafood harbor
3150 pierce st
richmond, ca. it's closer than alameda.
they have daily specials on dim sum noted on the blackboard.

cheaper but also pretty tasty! ( Saigon Seafoor Harbor )

on a similar vein, the final touches being completed on the newark location (next to ranch 99).
expect it to be open within weeks or days...

The dim sum's fine and the view is spectacular. You order from a menu. East Ocean Seafood (unrelated) in Alameda is better.
