Tried out this new Chinese restaurant located on Washington Ave. It was interesting to see something other than a Vietnamese restaurant in this shopping complex. The place is so massive. They have a ton of seating with an interesting stage up front that had a big screen television projecting Chinese tv. The place offers dim sum all day. The condiments included sugar, vinegar, and soy sauce. The steamed dumplings were a lot bigger than I was used to. They only offered chopsticks so we had to ask for a fork because it was hard to grab without them. The streamed shu mai was my favorite of the dim sum dishes. I didn't really like the steam shrimp dumplings. We also got the lava bun. I really found the lava bun interesting. It was sweet since it seemed to have a liquid-like egg custard inside. This place is definitely authentic but the waiter was very helpful since we were really lost on what to order.

First time trying dim sum and they did not disappoint. I had shrimp rolls, sticky rice, short ribs and shumai. Everything was delicious!

Sophisticated Cantonese dishes that exceeded expectations for Philly Chinese cooking, including an all-day dim sum menu. The large space is beautiful and well lit, with a giant festive LED screen and soft music. The service is charming. We return almost weekly when in town and bring all visitors.

This was the lobster it was very good.

I celebrated the lunar new year with friends here and everything was great service was amazing and everyone was very attentive I would definitely recommend to others.

Amazing Cantonese Dimsum. Their portion is huge! The shrimp steam dumplings are so beautiful.

The service at Furama is exceptional. I came with family for dinner during Memorial Weekend with several tables of customers already seated. The staff were attentive, friendly, and took great care in providing recommendations our family of 5 adults and 2 littles. I highly recommend the Cold King Crab to all seafood lovers. It was so delicious! My family had completely finished the whole plate! The Peking duck recommended by our lovely waitress Ying was also great! I've never had duck so crispy and delightful. The steamed buns and onions provided with the dish made it a fun "taco" making experience for our little ones. The atmosphere is pleasant with plenty seating available and a large center screen. I personally loved the lanterns hanging, and would make a great place to host large gatherings. 10/10 recommend! :)

Dim sum here is the best in the city. Food flavored perfectly and texture is spot on. The new owners have taken the worst spot and made it the top dim sum spot in Philly. I highly recommend

To top it off they even serve a soup of the day that comes along with your meal! They really know how we like to eat. Together the combo is just so good, unbeatable. Their roast duck was perfectly seasoned and cooked, skin was delicious, sometimes the meat portion for this selection is a little lacking cuz the weight is made up of bones, but otherwise really good. That's just the cost of getting roast duck as an option. Their char siu taste, quality, and portion all exceed expectations, really good. Perfectly seasoned with their marinade that penetrates the meat fully. And lastly their roast pork, crispy meaty, great crust, meats a little dry but still really good! Definitely my favorite place in Philly!

I'd never had them before and off I went to Chinatown to poke around and see who might have them. This place looked like the kind of place that most people would walk by - it looks outdated and well, run down. But their menu had it and I sat down and tried it out. I chose the $7 version with steamed shrimp and OH MY! I have a new favorite. Loved it. Out of curiosity, I also decided to try out the salt and pepper pork, which just basically turned out to be a fried pork chop. Pretty generous serving, with lots of fried garlic and onions, and fresh jasmine rice. Not bad. Saved most of it to bring home.

I've been coming to LHF for about the last 40 years, and used to think it was a great restaurant. The menu, or at least the preparation of very familiar dishes, has changed, and I believe that ownership has as well. Our usual family favorites are all on the menu, this is basic stuff. Salt baked shrimp, pan fried noodles, General Tso bean curd (I don't believe I saw my old fav, tofu with Chinese mushrooms on the menu), and snow pea greens. The snow pea greens stole the show, basically. The tofu was cooked in a sort of gelatinous texture, not the chewy texture that I associate with the dish as formerly made. Shrimp & squid were good, nothing outstanding. Service was very good, although on the most recent visit, we were the only eat-in customers. Also note that they have a 3.0+% processing fee on credit cards. But our server made a point of mentioning it before taking the card for processing, so at least they are very upfront about it.

Came here on a Friday morning while visiting Philadelphia to try their dim sum, and we were…read morepleasantly surprised by how delicious everything was! We ordered the chicken lo mein (without vegetables for my nephew), diced dry spicy chicken, xiao long bao (XLB), pan-fried Sheng Jian Bao, chicken feet, crystal shrimp dumplings, and egg tarts. The chicken lo mein was perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of salt and flavor. The diced dry spicy chicken came with a side of rice, which balanced the bold seasoning nicely. The chicken was crispy on the outside while remaining juicy on the inside, and the spice level was around a 5/10, which is enough to give it a satisfying kick without being overwhelming. The XLB wasn't served with julienned ginger, as some restaurants do, but the broth inside the dumplings had a subtle ginger flavor that was a pleasant surprise. The dumplings were well-seasoned and flavorful enough that they didn't even need soy sauce. The pan-fried Sheng Jian Bao (five dumplings per order) was slightly less authentic than I expected. While the flavor was spot on, the filling lacked any soup, and both the top and bottom of the bao were crispy (typically just the bottom of the dumpling is pan-seared). They ended up tasting more like well-made pan-fried dumplings than traditional Sheng Jian Baos. The chicken feet came three to an order and were tender, with a savory sauce that had a hint of sweetness. The crystal shrimp dumplings were fresh and delicate, and the egg tarts made for a great way to finish the meal with their flaky crust and creamy custard filling. The service here was excellent. Our server spoke almost perfect English, which isn't always expected at restaurants specializing in authentic dim sum. The food arrived quickly, piping hot, and they accept both cash and credit cards. The restaurant is fairly spacious, though it doesn't have the large banquet-style atmosphere you might associate with some traditional Chinese restaurants. Overall, this was an excellent dim sum experience, and I will definitely come back the next time I'm in Philadelphia.

The chicken soup dumplings were good. The pork and the mushroom dumplings weren't our favorite. The three whole dishes we ordered were all really good though. To help you order, each menu item has a number, and the server puts that into an iPad. My teen was also impressed with the black and gold bathroom.

Beef Stew Ho Fun (4.25/5): Very enjoyable. The beef stew was super tender and the ho fun noodles had a great texture, though the broth could have used a touch more depth and flavor Baked Pork Chop over Fried Rice in Tomato Sauce (3/5): The sauce had great flavor, but adding peppers and red onions felt a bit unusual. You don't typically see those in traditional baked pork chop dishes, and they didn't quite go well imo Overall, a solid spot for a HK cafe

My party usually intake weekend Chinese Dim Sum. Mona Lisa Vito: "I bet the Chinese food here is terrible. How's your Chinese food?" Vinny Gambini: "You just keep askin' about Chinese food. Can't you tell they don't have Chinese restaurants around here? You gotta let everybody know you're a tourist. Come on." - "My Cousin Vinny" 1992 film The staff speaks Cantonese which is very good to hear Cantonese spoken as it is mellifluous... at long last to continue this vernacular Chinese language. Chinese Dim Sum is regionally specific to Cantonese originating from the Guangdong province, ergo Cantonese will continue to survive as vernacular language. When we arrived there was one party of five middle age and elderly men who were conversing boisterously loud in Cantonese, but they were not arguing as it appeared that is their characteristic volume for communicating among each other. It seemingly appears every person within this party of five men want their individual spotlight as the desideratum to be heard without interruption and without judgment, therefore battle with loud vocally expressing one's thoughts. "Silence doesn't always mean you have nothing to say. It means you know that no matter what you say, nothing will change." - Snoopy, Peanuts by American cartoonist Charles M. Schulz I received complaints that I have been told I am too loud, but certainly this party of five men are louder. Ergo, stop with your vile complaints about me! My party of three found the quality of food average as juxtaposition for New York City Dim Sum. There are no dine-in menu to order platter entrées if the Dim Sum dishes does not eat your fill. Customer service is average. The Dim Sum trolley women appear nonchalant and less enthusiasm as they can determined to ascertain that my party and I are non-Pennsylvanians, but out-of-towners. We chosen Pu'er tea, bou2 nei2 普洱茶 as the default Dim Sum tea to help with digestion. The tea pot was metal but it was not boiling hot water rather lukewarm temperature for tea which is unorthodox for Dim Sum tradition. Business cards are available for grabs. I did obtained my sales receipt. Nevertheless, a Dim Sum Sunday brunch was a equanimity state achieved to balance work life in the company of family in fleeting times. Let's Yum Cha! My foodie synopsis: Shrimp dumpling 蝦 餃 (haa1 gaau2)- filled with small pieces of shrimp and the dumpling skin was rather thick. The dumpling skin was sticking to the paper wrapping. The dumpling skin was sticking to the top of my mouth. Pork and mushroom dumpling 燒 賣 (siu1 maai6*2) Shumai were well prepared and the mushroom were, gratefully, small and not overpower the dumpling. I am not a mushroom enthusiast. Beef rice noodle roll rice roll 牛肉腸 (ngau4 juk6 coeng4*2) texture was too chewy from the thickness. The rice noodle was average, but appear smaller covering the meat. Spare ribs with basil sauce 欖 汁 排 骨 (laam5*2 zap1 paai4 gwat1) - it was not swimming in oil and there were minimal meat, but minimal non-meat fat. Beef ball in bean curd 山竹牛肉丸 (saan1 zuk1 ngau4 juk6 jyun2) - it was not served piping hot, but average Unfortunately, Jade Harbor do not offer my favorite traditional Dim Sum dessert dishes: Mango Pudding 芒 果 布甸 (mong4 gwo2 bou3 din1) Almond pudding 杏 仁 豆 腐 (hang6 jan4 dau6 fu6)

Both the dim sum menu and a lunch menu with standard Chinese restaurant fare were available. My party got the general tso's chicken from the lunch menu, and it was exceptional. Good-quality white meat with just enough spice. Heads up, though, the lunch dishes don't come with rice, so order that separately. From the dim sum menu, we ordered braised tripe with ginger & scallion, fried shrimp rolls, shrimp dumplings, steamed chicken buns, and crab meat soup dumplings. The braised tripe was a standout. It was cooked in a light yet flavorful sauce of ginger and scallion with the tripe's own broth. The delicateness of the sauce worked perfectly with the tripe. The dumplings were all great, especially the soup dumplings. The steamed chicken bun was the only thing I'd skip. It was on the heavier side, and the filling was just okay. The bill came out to about what I expected for the amount of food we ordered--$65 before tip. The service was friendly, and taking our order and getting the food was quick. After the food arrived, though, it was a little difficult to flag down a server to order more and later to get the check. Still, it was understandable given how busy they were, constantly collecting orders and putting out food. Overall, Canton Palace is a great find for anyone looking for this style of Chinese food outside of the usual New York neighborhoods.

Gets a star because hot and sour soup was fine and was heated appropriately and the sesame chicken with broccoli was good. Also can't give zero stars here...... wish I could. They charge $4 for rice and then grudgingly package it with leftovers. Entire restaurant had open tables but they stuck us against the servers alley that leads to kitchen. We had the staff behind us at a large table chattering away loudly while we tried to eat and talk. It was a mess. My husband paid the server in cash. They attempted to keep our change. I had to repeat myself multiple times asking for our change to come back. It almost seemed deliberate. So unprofessional. And yet my kind husband tipped the waitstaff generously; he's far kinder than I would have been. Not a class act restaurant. Will NEVER go back. REGRET that we chose this restaurant on our day out. =(
