Golden Seafood Palace

Had such an amazing experience here. Tried a bunch of their items and had a large family dinner. It brought me back to childhood and all the typical Cantonese “party” dishes. The staff was extremely attentive and super helpful.

I was genuinely impressed by this restaurant. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, and the pricing was very fair—definitely honest and transparent. That said, the place is very popular, so service was a bit slow, likely due to not having enough staff to keep up with the crowd. My table didn’t get much attention, which was a bit disappointing. If you don’t speak Chinese, you might miss out—some of the best dishes are only listed on the Chinese menu. I highly recommend bringing a friend who speaks Cantonese to unlock the full food experience. I ordered the daily special lobster (not on the menu!), and it was amazingly fresh—better than any lobster I’ve had at other restaurants. I also tried the stir-fried beef ho fun, which takes serious skill to perfect. The beef was tender and flavorful, the veggies had that perfect wok hei, and the rice noodles had just the right chewiness. You can really taste the chef’s technique and control of the heat. With this level of quality and such reasonable prices, I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommended!

Very nice dim sum and Cantonese food! I’ve been twice so far and will be going frequently. I like it quite a bit more than the large Canto restaurants in the south of the neighborhood. Here’s my notes on the dishes: Har gow and siu mai - both very nice clean, fresh, balanced flavor Cha siu bao - average Chicken feet way above average in NYC Beef tendon - tender, nice flavor (collagen supplement!) Gai lan - tasty and bright Stuffed eggplant dim sum - yummy fried eggplant with flavorful pork filling Fried chive dumplings - crispy with great flavor Lobster fried rice - splurge but perfectly executed with sweet and tender lobster and crispy rice Rice roll w beef - about average Fried Sesame mochi balls - crispy, nutty, tender inside. Fun dish Roast Duck - pretty tasty - crispy skin and juicy meat, though it would be nicer with a sauce (eg plum, tian mian) Frequency of carts is good, rarely more than a few minutes between them. Much shorter waits between carts than the big places. The strong smell of sterno is off-putting at first, and it’s always there, but you get used to it (not sure if a good thing).

Had a decent dimsum experience. It was very very busy when we arrived but we were able to be seated within 20mins. The dishes we ordered were just okay. The dimsum dishes tasted really bland, especially the Shumai and Tripe (no flavor compared to other dimsum places). The real main star dish was the Chive Shrimp Dumplings, it was so good that I had 4 pieces alone (we had to other another one). The Lobster is a good deal here especially the lunch special ($20)

A new dim sum restaurant with traditional round tables, ladies pushing dim sum carts, and bigger plates on the menu to share. The food is okay, the service is okay, the bathrooms are small, and the sink is outside the bathroom. Try it once, if you are in the area.
