I previously complained about the food going downhill (since they opened), and I still stand by that comment, but to be honest it's not a bad choice in Downtown Flushing for dim sum, as they also serve rice dishes and noodles during lunchtime, so there are more options. Their prices are also very good for the quality and quantity of the food - perhaps because I'm comparing it with Manhattan. With costs of everything going up, this provides value for money. Parking cannot be easier, with the large parking lot right across the street.

What a lovely place to have dim sum. We were seated on the raised dais so it felt really special. The dishes were selected off a menu you mark with a pencil. The food was presented in very nice dishes. My favorite was the rice in bamboo. The fried noodles were really good as well.

Receipt on top of food.

The food was mediocre. the servers gave a spot we explicitly said we didn't want to sit even after multiple reminders with many spots on the sides. The food also took extremely long with a 30 minute wait in-between small dishes. Even after the long wait, they would put a receipt on top of the food adding a dose of microplastics to the mix. Would not recommend , never going back ever again.

Emperor Seafood serves up a Cantonese-style banquet menu and classic dimsum. Their dimsum dishes are pretty solid, and I plan to check them out again next time to try some other items! Located adjacent to the main municipal parking lot in downtown Flushing, the restaurant is conveniently only a few blocks from the 7 train. The entrance is on the first floor, with stairs leading up a stairwell decorated with an ornate dragon motif screen placed on the wall, halfway up. Walking into the main dining area, you pass a wall of seafood tanks to your left and a compact register area to the left. As one of the newer banquet restaurants in the area, the interior features more traditional Chinese decorative elements than older restaurants, with current trends leaning towards intricate traditional design details. The interior combines exposed brick walls with modern, recessed ceiling lighting, juxtaposed with traditional Chinese wooden trims, lattice windows and screens, curio cabinets inset into some of the walls, and red lanterns hanging from the ceiling. The decor simulated an ambiance slightly more upscale and tasteful than I've seen at some other banquet places, table settings included. That being said after a few years of use, a couple cups and dishes at our table showed visible wear and tear, and I see how a couple other reviews mention replacements are warranted. Food-- - 千層叉烧酥 Crispy roast pork puff pastries $4.95: just as described, a savory pastry with a filling of minced marinated meat. Pretty tasty and not as commonly found at other dimsum spots. Recommend! - 黑椒牛子骨 Black pepper beef spareribs $5.50 their version is on the sweeter side, had good flavor and meat was tender though I prefer New Mulan's iteration better. - 鲜嫩牛肉肠 Steamed beef and 软滑鲜虾肠shrimp rice rolls $5.50 each: fairly standard renditions of these dimsum staples, shrimp were decently sized. - 软绵鲜鱼求 Steamed fish balls $4.75 plump and bouncy, a little white peppery since they sprinkle some on top. - 蘿蔔糕 Pan-fried turnip cake $4.50 good amount of turnip, tasty. - 蜜汁叉烧包 Steamed roast pork buns $4.50 pretty average. - 烧卖皇 Shiumai - pork and shrimp dumplings $4.95 not bad. - 晶瑩虾饺皇 Hargow - shrimp dumplings $5.50 came with four pieces, ate one already in my pic, decent version. Order this! - 豆沙包 Steamed red bean buns $4.50 not commonly found at most dimsum places, unfortunately the execution was just ok. - 芝麻卷 Sesame jelly rolls $4.50: also not usually found at other restaurants, lightly sweet with strong ground sesame flavor and texture. Would recommend! - 桂花糕 Osmanthus Cake $4.95 this is a floral, mildly sweet jello. On the firmer side, an interesting combination of flavor and texture. I enjoyed the unique flavor. - 干炒牛河 Beef chow fun - pan-fried wide rice noodles w/beef $18.95: served with a side of soup--this was a single bowl of a clear broth with a couple pieces of pork and a piece of abalone. Traditional flavors. The chow fun was pretty standard and I thought a little on the blander side though maybe bc the other items were slightly saltier in comparison. I found the service half a notch above some other dimsum restaurants, I think in part due to orders placed by each table and not having diners select items from a cart. The staff we interacted with were professional and polite.

Steamed fish meatballs.
Gin Y.

Score 4 stars This restaurant was so easy to get to. It's literally right across from the parking lot at the last subway stop to Flushing. So, we came here twice for lunch special. Our favorite items were their complimentary soup (not pictured, but it was such a flavorful clean broth - very umami), stir fried clams, steamed fish meatballs, and their salted egg yolk custard buns. Yum! Overall, we will definitely return when we make a stop at Flushing station.

Tiffany C.

Very grand restaurant from decor to the table settings. Food was fine for most part but there's definitely needs better food prep guidelines. Everything was plated luxuriously and over the top. My favorites that night were the sashimi platter with fresh cuts of geoduck, salmon and lobster. Since it was a seafood restaurant, they definitely hit the mark with fresh seafood. The staff was great, and was very helpful.

Crispy Egg Tart

I checked out a new dim sum spot the other day and it was good, for me it was on the same level as Asian Jewels. I thought everything as a whole was good but didn't have any wow dishes. Each dish was good but they each had subtle things I would change. The crispy roast pork was shockingly the best item. This place doesn't have carts, you order a la carte The food: Crispy Roast Pork Puff- This surprised me as my number one. The dough was nice and crispy without being oily and the pork filling was nice. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA&select=BRizWthlY7oZ_BjFyACVUQ Steamed Rice Noodle Roll w. Shrimp- Overall, I thought the flavor of this was good but I felt the noodle itself was too thick. Shu Mai- This was made well, the filling had good flavor and texture. Stuffed Eggplant- I really wanted to love this dish and while the shrimp filling was made really well I felt this dish came off a bit bland. I did feel it got better the more I ate it. Crispy Egg Tart- The dough on this was excellent, but the custard part of this was very eggy. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA&select=44ajtWBruVmED6d9Onxc4g Black Pepper Beef Ribs- The ribs were cut surprisingly thick, the ribs were nice and tender but to me there was this artificial black pepper flavor I didn't care for.

black sesame roll

This time we checked out thus dim sum spot that instantly caught my eye with its royal decor and gorgeous tableware. The dim sum isn't the best, but the quality is there. Just a heads-up: there are no dim sum carts, so everything is ordered from the menu. Har kow won our approval with its plump and bouncy shrimps. My second favorite was pan-fried cheong fun with dried shrimp - we liked it so much that we had to order another round. Pro tip: Save room for dessert--they're worth it. Both the black sesame roll and osmanthus jelly were very lightly sweetened. I always get black sesame rolls at dim sum spots, and this one is my favorite so far for its subtle sweetness and rich, nutty flavor. My relatives highly recommended the pumpkin and corn sage, so we ended up getting two. - Siu Mai 燒賣 $4.95 * - Fish Ball 鯪魚球 $4.75 - Steamed Beef Meat Ball 山竹牛肉 $4.75 - Har Kow 蝦餃 $5.50 * - Pan Fried Rice Roll 煎蝦米腸粉 $4.95 * - Chiu Chow Steamed Dumpling 潮州粉果 $4.75 - Steamed Spare Ribe 排骨 $4.75 - Steamed Chicken Feet 鳳爪 $4.75 - Pumpkin and Corn Sage 南瓜粟米露 $4.95 * - Osmanthus Jelly 桂花糕 $4.95 * - Black Sesame Roll 芝麻卷 $4.50 *

Came here for dinner with the family. It's one of those restaurants that is grand but the food is just okay. Flavors are there but on the bland side. Food was also pricey but understandable considering the ambiance. Servers were attentive and plates were swapped out regularly

Best dim sum place in NYC?! They don't have carts, but everything is so fresh. The prices are amazing, and I enjoyed everything we ordered. My favorites include the shumai, the custard buns, the tofu skin rolls, and the spring rolls. The egg tarts are so fresh. They were a bit slow with service when we were there (it was a Sunday morning, right when they opened at 11am, and it was packed), but I didn't mind waiting. They have a huge space with lots of tables.

Lily C.

I highly recommend Emperor Seafood. This is our go to place for Chinese new year and the food is always fresh and delicious. This year we requested a small room and it was perfect for our party of 10. The only requirement is that you had to spend $300. That was not a problem at all. We ordered a lot of different dim sum items as well as some noodle dishes, desserts, and all were excellent. Of course, downtown Flushing is a drag for parking but if you get there early enough, you can find parking garages which are fairly reasonable. Or, take the Long Island railroad from Penn Station or Grand Central if you're coming from the West. If you're coming from the east, you can also take the Port Washington line to Flushing Main Street.

Great ambiance inside for dim sum or Cantonese cuisine. Food is on par with other surrounding Cantonese restaurants. Service is very accommodating and welcoming for brunch and dinner time.

Love the color scheme and decor
Tiffany L.

This is my favorite Chinese restaurant in NYC for banquet dinners!!! I love celebrating holidays and birthdays with family here. The private rooms are decorated so well, and the main dining area is nice too! The presentation of the dishes, especially the soup and when they use dry ice for certain dishes is so fun. I think the food is also delicious. My favorite dishes I've had are this one herbal/duck soup, crab legs, lobster, and this one dessert that's a crispy rice cake almost. The only thing is the paper towel dispenser in the bathroom has been broken the last two times I've been here, and the sink water is so icy cold. There can also sometimes be a draft in the restaurant so just a heads up if you get cold easily.

Service was minimal at best but they just seemed under staffed honestly. And when the server did come by, she was running quickly to and from. The place was not busy when my friends and I were seated. But there was a back room in guessing that had occupants since she was missing in the front seating area. (There was a two person table occupied in the front near us). My party of three over ordered but that was intentional because, any purchase over $100, you get a free lobster and each of us had items we wanted, figured we would doggie bag the leftovers. All in all a great value. The lunch spread had over 7 dishes and we got the free lobster. I was especially happy to see Fried Milk on the menu as an appetizer. They also provide complimentary salted peanuts and pickled radish and carrot slivers. I recommend the snow pea shoots, fried milk, clams with black bean sauce and the Chinese Broccoli with Filet beef. The other dishes like the lobster, noodles and sweet and sour pork were executed well but just not my flavor profile. And with my food allergy, I couldn't try the shrimp with walnuts but it was my friends' birthday so she ordered that for her treat. It looked great! There's complimentary parking if you validate your ticket with a nearby garage, but you need to spend a minimum.

The…read morerestaurant was fairly full and the strangest thing almost all the patrons were wearing their wool hats and coats while seated at their tables. We were famished and only focused on what yummy dishes to order. My wife, son and daughter all contributed their suggestions and we ended up ordering pan fried whole flounder, half of the roast chicken with garlic, filet mignon with Chinese broccoli, fried rice with chicken and salted fish and everyone's favorite dish salt & pepper squid. Once we placed our order and were enjoying the roasted peanuts and free spicy cabbage we realized why everyone had their winter coats on, it felt like they had the AC on and it must have been 55° in the restaurant. I told everyone that once the food arrived things would warm up. Each dish that came out of the kitchen was perfectly cooked and was delicious. The salt & pepper squid with it's minced jalapeños kept us warm enough until the half chicken with garlic and filet mignon and Chinese broccoli came out in rapid succession. The star of the show turned out to be the giant sized pan fried flounder which was not only big but quite scrumptious. Unlike the little scrawny flounder that most other restaurants usually served this was a quite large and very meaty and perfectly cooked. The last dish to come out was a very large plate of chicken fried rice with salted fish. If it were not for the lack of heat, I would have given Chef Wong Bistro 5 stars!

It is a crowded, noisy, and wonderful place. You eat, look for dishes that catch your eye, and then eat some more. You also get to watch all the other diners enjoying food with their family and friends. For dinner, it was always done family style. We usually order lobster and shrimp dishes, as it is a seafood restaurant. However, all their other dishes are really good, so it is hard to say what is a favorite dish.

The noodles were perfectly al dente and I just enjoy creamy noodles to begin with. The curry fishballs are always a staple and the same goes with the steamed rice rolls with mixed peanut sauce. Cannot go wrong with those two appetizers. The sandwich was a little disappointing. I know the items are in the name of the sandwich but it fell really flat and I guess I was expecting a little more. The baked rice was not great either. It took a long time to arrive which we weren't upset about as we were warned when we ordered but for something that took so long, I expected it to be a lot better. Maybe we just ordered the wrong item and should've gotten the baked noodles instead of the rice? Overall the food was okay, the service was good and the restaurant liked very nice and clean. I enjoyed the fact that the menu was under a glass on the table so I was able to keep looking at it too while I was eating to see if there was anything else that looked interesting.

Texture might not be for everyone, but nice thing to snack on while you wait for your food, but not necessary. Service is quick. The space as I mentioned is small and can feel a little cramped, but they offer takeout if you wanted to just bring it back home. I'd still recommend just dining in though. Overall, great spot. Also there's a decent discount if you pay with cash.
