Having had our fill of rich (albeit delicious) French food for several days, we needed a change of flavor profile. Enter Le Royal China. We got there just as they opened and were greeted warmly. We were promptly seated and after a short time reviewing the menu, we ordered a parade of dim sum goodness. It was a perfect meal, including the hot tea, to brighten up a cold day.

There were Chinese, Vietnamese and Japanese menu items from what I saw, and none of them were really "authentic" to the actual dish. That said, it tastes good, in a delightfully junky way. I ordered the Bo Bun with chicken, which took them 4 or 5 minutes to prepare. Needless to say I received beef instead, but it didn't matter because the best part of the dish wasn't the meat anyways. Under a little layer of meat was a delightful medley of noodles, bean sprouts and above all ACTUAL SPICE! There was nothing better than soaking the spring rolls in the sauce to get them a little soggy and spicy. Finishing my meal off with a little cup of lychee was perfect, too. If I go back I think I would order the same thing without any meat.

The dining area is comfortable with many authentic art pieces from Asia. The restaurant's owners told us they came to Paris 40 plus years ago and their dream was to open an Asian restaurant in the city of Paris. It's super inspirational they came, learned French and made it happen. Side Note- Most restaurants in Paris close between lunch and dinner time. While sightseeing we missed lunch time, and this was one of few Asian restaurants open at this time. Walking distance from Avenue des Champs Elysées. ~

Rabia J was craving Asian food and we ended up walking to this restaurant from our hotel, took approximately 10 minutes. As we got there around 5pm we weren't sure if they would be open but they already had a few tables seated. This particular restaurant doesn't take credit cards so please take cash as you would be cleaning dishes the rest of the evening and that is not how you envision your trip to Paris. We ordered the shrimp dim sum along with a sizzling shrimp with veggies dish and veggie fried rice. The food had awesome authentic Chinese taste and smelled and tasted great. The restaurant is run by owners who came to Paris 45 years. 5 star for food and service.

The food was pretty good and that plate of vegetables after eating solid meat and carbs for days is like the best thing you've ever tasted. The crispy prawns was also really good. Flavorful with a crispy batter that's not overly greasy. The eggplant casserole dish was also delicious! The sweet and sour pork was a bit disappointing. The batter was too thick and the meat too small. The sauce was also a bit heavy on the vinegar for my liking. The servers are friendly and service was ok in the beginning but quickly slowed to a halt when all the tables were full. To be fair, a huge group came in for some type of celebration. The place is no frills but it's clean. Only downside is the door kept open after patrons use it to exit or enter and would not close so not great during the colder months.

It was unfortunate that all the servers, except the sommelier, were required to wear name tags. The roasted duck was very good. I found the Dim Sum menu was a bit smaller than I was expecting, but each taste was very good.

For a Michelin-starred restaurant, such a disappointment…read more Cantonese cuisine isn't my favorite, not even in my top five, but my wife loves it, so I took her here for her birthday. Let's start with the positives. The hotel is stunning and the restaurant is as well. They're also very flexible with reservations, so that cuts down on stress. The best parts of my meal were the complimentary appetizer of fried eggplant and candied walnuts, and the dessert, a sort of pudding made from mango and another fruit I don't recall the name of. Now to the downsides. I got their new fashioned cocktail, the spinach soup, and a tofu dish. The first was fine, if unremarkable, the second was bland, and the third was okay. But it wasn't just the flavor, the portions were also very small. And look, I get it, in any kind of haut dining, one can expect the portions to be small, but at this price? Which leads me to the cost. Through the roof. I believe my cocktail alone was about 20€, and hey, had it been the greatest old-fashioned-like drink I'd ever had, the price may have been warranted, but it wasn't. Everything on the menu is at least as much, but most dishes float around the 50€ area, with some individual dishes reaching nearly 100€. For the flavor and the portions, that's astronomical. But the final straw was the slow service. While getting our free appetizers and ordered ones didn't take that long, to be even asked if we were having dessert took at least ten minutes (I'm being very generous), but to actually be served our dessert once ordered? No less than half an hour. I don't know how long it actually takes to mash up some mango and scoop out some ice cream, but it can't possibly require that much precise skill. We were waiting so long that I was tempted to ask if they'd forgotten we'd ordered. The final insult was, after we'd paid and I'd gotten our coats, while I waited for my wife, the waiter made it very clear to me that he wanted me to leave into the hotel lobby. So let me get this straight. I hand you guys hundreds of euros for a tasteless, microscopic meal and the worst wait times I can remember and I can't wait for my wife inside the restaurant out of everyone's way? If you're a die-hard fan of Cantonese cuisine... go anywhere else.
