One of the only places in Oakland’s Chinatown for cheap and affordable dim sum to-go, this is a no-frills hole in the wall spot.
There’s 2 lines, one for the roast duck and roast pork *Window Line*, and the other is for small stuff like dim sum *Dim Sum line*. This can be confusing if it’s your first time, yes, there are signs, but they are hard to see when people blocked the signs while lining up.
Great services from all the staff at Big Dish.

The dim sum here are decent. Depending on what you order, some are good and some are just ok. The sign says $3.80 for 4 pieces of dumplings. $2.50 for the rice crepe roll. They sell other roasted meats here also. There’s a sign for the dim sum line to the right of the door, but when I got here at 9am on Saturday, there was no line at all. The shrimp dumpling, bbq pastry puff, taro puff and the shrimp crepe roll are pretty good. The other stuff has too thick of a dough around them. So they were ok.

My sister-in-law recommended Big Dish to me. It is located in the heartvof Oakland Chinatown, across the street from the East West Bank.
Specialties: Roast duck, chicken, pork, bbq pork, assortment of dim sum pastries. Menu board of the dim sum is mounted on the wall. Trays of pastries are in their display case.
Food is mainly for take out. There are a few tables and chairs for dining indoors.
Purpose of visit: to buy the chicken cage pastries (gai loong). They do sell out fast because it is a very popular item among us elderly Chinese people. The cost for 6 of them is $6.60. I have also purchased 3 sesame balls and 3 savory dumplings.

Felt like they took advantage of me as they knew I am a tourist.
Rice box combination is cheap (8$) but very basic, very few sauce, very few meat, and I had to ask for my 10$ change. I didn’t feel like it was natural, no excuse and even being rude when she gave me the change.. I was about to give a 20% tip as I usually do but I didn’t feel like a customer.

This place is no joke! The dim sum here is the best in Oakland Chinatown. Ever since sum Yee pastry closed I was I need if a new dim sum spot. I stumbled upon this place while waiting for a Lyft. Everything is fresh and perfectly seasoned. I can’t wait to try more items from here!

The name BIG dish is no joke. Less than $25 for the food in picture. Rice with chicken foot and spare rib is $4. You can have a lot of great food for very little money. I will go back every time I visit Oakland.

Would NOT recommend here The food was way too salty!! Not enough space to sit and eat, food was too dry as well. The chicken and duck was the worst I’ve ever tried in my life, it had a huge foul smell, the restaurant is so dirty and sticky floors, tables and service table HORRIBLE . Don’t ever come here!

Update to review: Hate to post something like this, but a bunch of people at our party got sick (for days) from eating the food we got catered here apparently. Definitely not coming back.
Came in to order catering for $500+ of food and put down a $200 deposit. Lady that helped with the catering order was nice and honest/upfront about costs, timing, and quantity. We then proceeded to order dim sum a la carte only to have another lady tell me 1 order of dim sum comes with 4 pieces minimum. She lied and and it’s my bad for not looking at the menu clearly. When I called her out on it she tried to claim she said the standard order is 4 pieces but you can break it up and order 1 piece if you wanted. Their menu clearly shows pricing for 1 piece. This happens a lot at some Chinese to go spots when they want to get rid of their cooked food for the day…they push you to buy more or lie so you’re stuck with more than you want to eat. I’m ok with the pushing but don’t appreciate the lying. Sketchy all around. Their dim sum wasn’t the best or the freshest. Best thing I had was their fried taro puff so maybe their fried food is the way to go. Really hoping I don’t regret ordering catering from here with all the red flags.

I see their rating is high for roasted duck and I went to buy whole duck chopped. I took to my car and eat. First couple of pieces are really fresh but after the first layer, I start to get mushy pieces. I then look and realized they mixed the old duck and new duck together. That’s why when they chop it they block the view and cannot see what they do. Be aware and dont get fooled.
