Royal Seafood - New York

Dining at Royal Seafood is like being transported to a dim sum hall in Hong Kong: large, boisterous and chaotic. The food is so good I make a periodic trek here. The variety is extensive, from the popular (dumplings, steamed buns and shumai) or the adventurous (chicken feet and tripe). My favorite is the bean curd roll. Prices are about a third less of dim sum uptown. This place is almost always crowded so try going off-peak especially if you’re in a big group.

The dim sums are so yummy and the price is ok for the amount of food. There are aunties pushing carts where they say the name of the food and they would stamp on card to know what you get. The service are great as they remove the plates very fast and refill the teapot.

Taste as real as the traditional Hong Kong dim sum. Food is fresh and tasty.Food: 5/5

Me and my mom stopped by this place. The workers here were very nice and welcoming to us. We were the only non asian people. The restaurant didn't have any seats available which is a good sign the food is good. So we got our food to go. The food was amazing. This was also our first time in China town. When we come back to New York we will back to this restaurant.

Came here on a weekday at 5:30pm and it wasn’t busy. Service was attentive and quick.The dishes we ordered were reasonably priced for the portion sizes. A friend recommended the stir fried chive and jicama with squid and crispy fish. It was delicious, balanced in flavors.Peking pork chop here was good. The pieces are cut smaller than other restaurants but not fatty. I’ve been to restaurants where the pork chop is fatty. It’s hard to tell when it’s been battered, deep fried and covered in sauce.The menu selection was standard to most banquet style Chinese restaurants. This place is great for crowds because of their big tables. Perhaps the entrance way vibes and lack of street side windows don’t convey a hip or inviting atmosphere and so I’ve never stepped into this restaurant until a friend recommended it. I’d definitely go back.
