Dim Sum Palace — Restaurant in New York

I was pleasantly surprised by how reasonable the prices are at Dim Sum Palace in Court Square, especially by LIC standards, where I'm used to seeing menus with inflated prices. The flavors here were absolutely on point, and as someone who loves Chinese dim sum, I appreciated the wide variety of offerings on the menu.

LIC doesn’t have many restaurants that offer an extensive dim sum selection, so I was thrilled to see Dim Sum Palace open a branch in the neighborhood. Everything we tried was delicious, but a few dishes really stood out. From the à la carte menu, the salt and pepper pork chops were a standout—crispy, thinly sliced, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned (I’m Asian and these dishes weren’t salty by my standards!). Among the dim sum, I especially loved the shrimp spring rolls, pork and shrimp siu mai, and the salt and pepper shrimp.

The only thing to note is that the space is a bit small, and it can get super packed on weekends, so be prepared for a wait. That said, the food is well worth it. Great flavors, good portions, and refreshingly fair prices. I’ll definitely be...

Grand opening this week! We went for dim sum during weekday lunch and their service was pretty fast.

The menu is the same as their other locations, but right now they have a few items not available, which they indicate on the menu.

We really wanted the bbq duck/pork set but it was not ready during the lunch time.

The ambience is great. They did some renovating to the existing restaurant that was there, and it turned out beautifully. There is ample seating for both smaller and larger groups.

The tofu dish we got was reheated improperly though - I could taste the center of the filling being cold while the rest of it was steaming hot.

Dumplings were good.

Sweet/sour fish was good but needed to be crispier.

Hope to come for dinner or weekend lunch in the future since a lot of the dishes might become more available.

I think they're still working out the kinks but we are super excited for a full on dimsum and Cantonese option...

From the moment we walked in, we knew we were in for a treat. Dim Sum Palace delivered an amazing dining experience from start to finish. The rustic, cozy ambiance paired with a surprisingly impressive bar selection made for the perfect setting.

We ordered a few dishes to share: • General Tso’s Chicken – crispy, flavorful, with just the right kick • Chicken Lo Mein – comforting and perfectly sauced • Chicken Dumplings & Bamboo Shoot Dumplings – fresh, delicate, and bursting with flavor

To complement it all, we had the Beijing Mule and the Mango Mojito — both cocktails were refreshing and incredibly well crafted.

The staff was friendly, attentive, and efficient, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. You can tell they care about the service they provide, and it shows.

10/10 recommend. Whether you’re going for dim sum favorites or a full dinner and drinks, this spot checks all the boxes. Can’t wait for...
