Tin Tin Restaurant: Affordable Cantonese Delights in Rosemead

A great spot for a cheap lunch! The food isn’t bad at all, and I’d definitely come back anytime.

A local restaurant that is very popular with the locals. The cooking is very consistent & decent. Seen a lot of older customers who seem like regulars by the way they were interacting with the waiters & waitresses. The prices were very reasonable. The atmosphere was busy with people enjoying their meals.

Great food again at Tin Tin Restaurant. This time it was beef with Chinese Broccoli and Chicken and Salted fish fried rice. It's a homemade memory brought back to life in excellent fashion. The portion is so big and tasty. Just the best flavor rice.

The lunch specials are now $10.95 from 11am - 6pm. We ordered a scrambled egg with shrimp, pea sprouts in broth, salt and pepper pork chop, hand shredded brown chicken and steam black cod with black soy beans. All the dishes were tasty and portions were generous. It comes with a big bowl of soup of the day and a big tub of long grain jasmine white rice. We arrived 5-7 minutes after they opened, the restaurant is already half full on Saturday. The restaurant is understaffed, we ask for a glass of ice water, it did not come until there were other tables that ordered similar items where the waitress eventually brought our ice water. The dishes also come in batches as well after we ordered. The 1st dish that came was the salt and pepper pork chops, since there about 5-6 tables ordered a similar item. The second dish that came was the scrambled egg with shrimp. We saw the waiter carrying 4 plates of the same scrambled egg with shrimp and distributing it to the table around us. While we were eating there were lots of customers coming in or calling in for placing to-go orders. The kitchen staff is overwhelmed and the rest of our food is now running behind. We have to wave down the waiter and waitress a few times to check on the remainder of our order. Since they were quite busy many regular customers would just walk up to pay their bill at the cash register and ask for a box and plastic bag. Some customers even know which drawer to open for utensils, plastic bags, spoons, small bowls no, etc.

We totally love this place! We drive in from Riverside and try to make it out here at least once a month if possible. So well worth the trip, highly recommended!

The lunch special is only $9.99 for 60+ dishes as of April 2022. This is a very typical Cantonese style Chinese restaurant and it is very similar to Sam Woo. The food is good and the size of the dishes are fair. Give it a try if you are looking for quick and decent Cantonese Chinese foods for cheap. Quick tips: Don't expect this is the cleanest restaurant. They do not have world class customer services there if you don't speak Cantonese.

Pretty good chinese food. The lunch prices before 6pm is cheap and def more worth it. Their lobster is 9 dollars a lb. ,Tofu in stonepot are al good choices for our first time ordering we weren't dissapointed.

Delicious food. Recommended to try it. You will never regret. Reasonable price for lunch (11am to 6pm).
