I totally agree that EP is lousy for Dim Sum. However, I'm quite impressed with the dinner items, such as the mayo shrimp, XO beef, some of their soups, and BBQ meats. EP is a decent restaurant IMHO, but not for the dim sum.
 
On the other hand, I have yet to find a very good Cantonese Chinese (or Szechuan and Chuichau) restaurants in California. Granted, I've had better in San Francisco and Fremont up north, but I guess it's easier to find good Northern Chinese and Taiwanese (not my cup of tea) around the Monterey Park area. As I know, most Cantonese from Hong Kong move to Canada, in cities like Toronto and Vancouver, and I can attest the Cantonese cuisine there (including Dim Sum) is much better.
