Review Silver Pond Restaurant - Lauderdale Lakes

Food was very good, authentic Chinese Service was also very good. Female waitress Atmosphere was ok but outdated and the carpet really needs to be removed. Overall a delicious experience.

Hidden gem that reminds me of China town. From the outside, you may just consider this a basic Chinese restaurant, but that is far from reality. Inside awaits a classic family style restaurant that offers extremely fresh seafood, classic dishes, and white glove service. Come with a group, order and share everything! There is something for everyone here. We started with the hot and sour soup, which was boiling hot and loaded with ingredient that melt in your mouth. Seafood fried rolls come out in 10x pieces and feature mussels; paired with fresh sweet and sour sauce. My favorite is the pan-fried noodles, which you can order 3x different ways. We opted for seafood again, which included scallops, large shrimp, calamari, and bite size fillets of white fish. The velvety lobster sauce coats the seafood and veggies generously, allowing the bottom noodles to soak the juices and the top noodles to remain crispy. Cho, was our sever and was friendly, knowledgeable and an extension of the restaurant. Total class and white glove service.

My first time trying dim sum at all with some friends from Fujian Province. I didn't think you could get traditional New York style dim sum in South Florida, but I guess I was extremely extremely wrong! The whole mood and the atmosphere with the amazing food and service was spectacular. Will be coming again!

This restaurant is all that and dim sum. We have been going here for years for dinner, but recently started coming here for dim sum. Pretty good food.

First visit to this restaurant, celebrating a relatives birthday. Sunday lunch and the place is packed. We waited for a few minutes for the foods. As soon as one food is served another one follow. The food all taste good. So much food was ordered that we can not finish in our table. I recommended this Chinese restaurant for you to try.

Sorry food in pic is more than halfway eaten. Place is full, but they tell you straight up the wait for food. Figured I could wait less in a not so good restaurant or wait longer for good food. The latter won of course and was well worth it. Pan fried flounder still the best, the chicken with black bean is good as well. Hong Kong chicken is great and fish casserole is a must. Oh BTW, you guys have to get the pan fried noodle, absolutely amazing:)

Walking into silver pond you’re instantly transported from the hood outside to china inside. What a refreshing change of scenery! The staff is warm, inviting and funny. Fresh lobster! Big koi that are not for sale. And a very full menu of authentic food. Will absolutely come back. Pro tip- sit at a lazy Susan.

I went for lunch had a bowl of shrimp soup dumpling, delicious, and dim sum shrimp and eggplant. Give this place a try you won’t be disappointed really authentic Chinese food owner at the cashier should be more friendly.

Great experience here! Service was attentive and our waitress was super nice. The food came out hot and quick. The prices were reasonable and the portions were large.

The BEST Chinese food in south Florida! Very authentic Cantonese dishes: fresh ingredients, tender meats and nice flavors. Food is on par with good ones in NYC Chinatown. Service is reliable although there can be a line on weekend evenings. If you are looking for spicy Sichuan food then this is not for you.

The best yet that we've had in this area! The servers were all very nice fast and efficiently professional. The good not only looked appealing but tasted heavenly! We will definately be back again and again!!!

Love coming here, always bring family and friends! The owner helps and is very friendly, the employees are also equally as kind. They even packed our food for us! I recommend it also mostly for massive groups of people. A delight!

Been going here with my family for decades. I didn't appreciate the establishment till I've moved away and now come back to visit family. Recently went and the truly enjoyed the authentic NYC Cantonese dishes.

I used to come here when I was in elementary school. Nothing has changed. Great food, fast service, and decently priced. We ordered the following: Beef satay Beef with Chinese broccoli Salt tasted jumbo shrimp Peking pork Half peking crispy duck Fresh tilapia steamed with ginger and scallions Lobster salt and pepper Lobster ginger and scallions Chicken fried rice Snow pea tips garlic Fish maw and crab meat soup I'm not sure if I got it all but here goes nothing. To start, hot tea. Loose leaves. Great for each meal. Beef satay, good. Nice tender beef and lots of green bell peppers. It was good but not favorite. 3/5 Beef with Chinese broccoli, chunks of beef. The Chinese broccoli still had a bite to it. Great mild flavor, perfect with rice. 4/5 Salt toasted jumbo shrimp is delicious. Head on with shell is the way to go. Perfect amount of saltiness and has a bit of heat from the jalepenos. 4/5 Peking pork is like a general tso chicken but with pork chops and a bit more tanginess. I wish it was more crispy but good flavor. 4/5 Peking duck is good too. Not too much of an odor. You get a hoison sauce paired with it. Crispy and moist at the same time. Duck is nicely cooked. Missing bao buns or something like that. 4/5 Steamed tilapia was steamed perfectly. Sauce went well with white rice or any rice. Great flavor. Not too salty. The meat was flakey and you know it's fresh from the flavors. 4/5 Lobster salt and pepper was good. Fried nicely. Good amount of salt And pepper. Juicy and not dry Lobster ginger and scallions was my favorite from the two. So flavorful 5/5 Chicken fried rice was good. Any typical Chinese restaurant will have this. 4/5 Snow pea tips garlic was cooked nicely. Had a good bite. Good flavor. Enough garlic 4/5 Fish maw with crab is my favorite soup. Brings back memories so it might be a nolstagic thing. Huge portion because we had a party of 11 and we still had leftovers. Staff is friendly and service is quick. Clean plates and silverware. They provide everything you need and get unused plates out of the way for your comfort. The tables have the center piece that spins. Makes it easily accessible to reach for foods.

Great authentic Chinese restaurant. Diverse selection of items categorized to help you navigate. It is a dine-in restaurant and gratuity is automatically calculated. For 3 of us it was at 18%. Take family or a specific date night experience. The bill can talley up quick if you go overboard.
