This place has been here for almost 10 years and I didn't even know until a friend recommended it. One of the few dim sum restaurants that still opens early at 9am. Very popular with the locals. The manager said it's crowded early in the mornings, so expect a wait unless you get here before the doors open. You can get a seat faster if you are willing to share a table with strangers. Say... Who is that, trying to eat my pork bun? Usual old school carts are pushed around often. The usual dim sum suspects are served piping hot. Tried various dishes. Good but not great. Many private rooms in the back for large parties. Each private room are equipped with their own A/V system with Karaoke (for those less timid). My favorite were the shao mai. I've rarely seen a place put in so many mushrooms! My least favorite were the taro puffs. Were these just taken out of the fridge? But at least they give you four! But on the smaller sized than normal. Some parking beside the restaurant. read more

BLUF: Huge selection of dim-sum, average execution, super-crowded so visit early. There was a video story in the New York Times this past winter about dim-sum: https://youtu.be/2f5ihGpBSC0. The story followed two dim-sum cart ladies working for Golden Palace 新迎喜海鮮酒樓, and was in part about the waning era of dim-sum cart service. Interestingly, much of the video was in Cantonese, itself a waning language. We faintly remembered that video and visited the restaurant on a rainy summer weekend. The dim-sum at Golden Palace was actually kind of mediocre. The beef tripe was coarsely cut. The taro puffs were served cold. The chicken feet lacked flavor. The siu mai was OK, but couldn't hold together. However, there was a huge variety of dim-sum, seemingly much more than in many places in Downtown Flushing, Queens. There is strong local support for Golden Palace. We observed friendly banter between staff and long-time customers. An unwritten "rule" for most dim-sum restaurants is that one should arrive by 11 AM and be seated without a wait. We arrived to a queue of waiting customers at around 10 AM, but were seated quickly because we were willing to share a table (搭枱) with others. There was a much larger queue by the time we left. We overheard a manager explaining that the restaurant pretty much fills up when it opens. Line cutting (queue jumping) can be an issue here. The couple who we initially sat with were eventually replaced by a family who discretely skipped the waitlist. Service was good, and slightly old-school in that the bill was manually calculated instead of run through a bill print. Empty plates were regularly removed by staff. The restrooms were adequately maintained. Golden Palace has a parking lot that was already full when we arrived; we found parking on a side street behind the restaurant. read more

I love dim sum and trying out new dishes that I have not heard of. I came here with my family to try their mochi bread with custard in the middle which sounded absolutely delicious to me. The other dimsum items were pretty basic so there were no complaints. The mochi bread actually had such an interesting texture but I just wish the custard was a little more on the softer end. Another dish that I tried from this dimsum place was durian egg tarts. I've never seen that before at any other dimsum place I've been to and I was pleasantly surprised! read more

Always busy but you can feel like typical dim sum family vibe inside. I've been going here for dim sum with my big family every time I'm in NYC and we always have plenty of good memories - good laughs, conversations, and hot delicious dim sum. Don't know why I didn't yelp bout it but here I am today after coming back second day in a row for high tea... just with my hubby today minus the usual big group of 12 but as usual: great experience:)) read more

Golden Palace - Dim Sum Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Party of 8 arrived at noon 8/11/2026 Our table was ready in about 15 minutes as it was very busy today. One of the servers was rude when we asked for 8 glasses of water. He said we can not have that many and only brought 5. The dim sum was good not great. Some items were salty and most were warm at best. We ordered a veggie dish which i thought was grainy as well as a soy sauce crispy pan fried noodle dish. We could tell the dish sat in the kitchen a bit... because the heat from the dish took away most of the crunchiness. I didn't choose the restaurant and I am in limbo if I would return. The ladies with the carts are amazing sellers... The chrysanthemum tea was hot and delish. read more

I've been craving dim sum for a while and so we decided to go here since it was not too far away from us and they have their own parking. When we got there, I stood in line to get a table and what I didn't like was that other patrons cut in front of me to get a number. When I found out there was a 30 minute wait, my family and I decided to do takeout. We got a variety of dishes and total was like $60 which I thought was decent. We bought 2 containers of eggplant stuffed with shrimp cake (each container had 3pc), steamed egg custard buns, shrimp shumai, this chicken/ taro/ kani wrapped with tofu skin, coconut milk dessert, and pork shumai. I ate the dishes with shrimp and chicken and my husband ate all of the dishes. Even my baby tried some of the food. Overall, the food was tasty. I would prefer these dishes again. I think in the future, we have to get here by 9am to get a table. I liked the food and wouldn't mind going there again or getting takeout. read more

The dim sum is better than most spots in the neighborhood. I tried many varieties and it doesn't disappoint. Their noodles and rice dishes are also very good and good portion size. The service is fine, depending how stressed and busy it gets. The restaurant itself is a good size with a good amount of tables, but it gets filled up quickly, especially on the weekends. There are also rooms available for dim sum or evening dinners with family and friends. read more

This is still one of my top three favorite dim sum places in south Brooklyn. I usually go here or Fortune Palace on 86th Street for dim sum. However, I find that Fortune Palace is much more crowded even though the food is slightly better, whereas the wait for a table at Golden Palace in the daytime really isn't that bad. I think it helps that they have a whole takeout section in the lobby, which I've partaken in a few times to save on tips and time. And if you don't see an item that you want in the takeout section, the workers are willing to go into the kitchen/dining area to find it for you. Sometimes there's a short line for the takeout section, but it's much faster than waiting for a table (usually). I like how innovative this place is with the food options. They have so many new desserts that I haven't seen at other places, though not all are hits. The ladies rolling around the food carts can be a little pushy with trying to get you to order something from them, but I don't blame them. I'm sad to say that their egg tarts are hit or miss, sometimes they're a little too bland, but other times, they're delicious. Also, I love how I wrote in my very first review that I want dim sum places to start selling custard (not salty egg yolk) buns again because I discovered that they have it here in piggy buns! Nowadays, instead of parking in the lot, which you have to pay $2 or something similar for, I'm able to find parking around the corner near the residential area. read more

Super packed and loud dimsum place with valet parking on site. You get put on a paper list and wait. Sometimes you might get your own table or share which is normal. Classic dim sum dishes were here like cheung fun, har gow, pork or shrimp siu mai, and yellow sponge cake. Customer service was lowkey disorganized and inattentive. The fish and green beans came out extremely salty and oily but nothing can be done about it. read more

I frequent this dim sum spot with my parents and the kids whenever we go to Brooklyn. It's one of the larger dim sum restaurants in the Bensonhurst area without having to go to congested 8th Ave. As far as variety and selection goes, they have all the usual and traditional dishes (can't complain abt that!) and newer more innovative dim sum dishes as well. Their food is pretty decent. Some dim sum dishes didn't disappoint such as the rice noodles, sticky rice, cha siew bao, siu mai, shrimp dumping. My least favorite there was probably their mochi pineapple bao? I've definitely had it before and it wasn't that chewy here, it was rather flat tasting. A few dishes were room temp/cool at most, not hot/warm. Overall, it serves its purpose in terms of larger party size and wide selection of dim sum dishes. It is still our go to dim sum spot in Brooklyn. read more

Probably like you, dear reader, I look up restaurant reviews so that I'm not dining at a spot that most people disapprove of. If a place has 100+ reviews like this place does, I find that the star rating tends to be pretty accurate. In this case, I think most of the negative reviews are for unbelievably long waits and chaos going here for dim sum. If you know anything about dim sum in NY, it's that there aren't that many spots that have traditional pushcart dim sum, and the spots that do get mobbed out. Chinese folks take their weekend dim sum brunch seriously, often getting to restaurants as early as 9am when they open for their dumpling fix. I've heard stories of the multi-hour waits here, and I have no doubt they could be managing the crowds better. However, strolling in for dinner recently was a perfectly pleasant and low-key experience. My family booked a table for about 16 people in the main ballroom, and we received very attentive service being one of the few occupied tables there that evening. We did peep a family who booked one of the fancier private rooms, and they ordered expensive dishes only. We eyed every lobster, crab, and salad dish that passed from the kitchen, past out table, over to their luxury private room. While we felt like mere peasants, ordering the likes of xo clams, walnut shrimp, spare ribs, mapo tofu, and green beans, we found the food to be plenty flavorful, albeit saltier than I'm used to (and I'm used to salty). The dining room, replete with chandeliers, lavender table cloths, and a big screen, is about as nice and fancy as any newer dim sum restaurant in Southern Brooklyn. They definitely do well during Chinese wedding season. read more

Our first time here and it was for a wedding banquet. It has been renamed New Golden Palace. Considering how difficult it is to find street parking in Brooklyn, valet parking on site is a bonus. They did a really nice job decorating for the banquet and to set a festive mood. Food was pretty good and had some dishes that I've never had at a Chinese banquet. Service was good, they served dishes onto our plates. We had the restaurant for 4 hours but as soon as they were done serving the cake and guests started leaving, they started breaking things down before our time was up. So us guests were disappointed we couldn't dance (although the stage was the dance floor). read more

It can get really crowded after 9am so be sure to go early if you have a large party. The food is hot and delicious . Dim sum is pushed around in carts which is always fun and nice to see. They have a lot of different items and items are refilled frequently. They do start to take orders for stir fried items around 11am in the off chance that people eating dim sum want to order larger items. Overall I highly recommend checking Golden Palace out and enjoying local dim sum! read more

We ordered an array of dim sum items for take-out. Everything was delicious and filling. I found the eggrolls too oily, but everything else was on point. My favorites are the turnip cake, sticky rice, and fried glutinous dumplings. read more

Golden Palace - Dim Sum. - Dim Sum Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Decent spot for dim sum. Went as a group of 6 around noon on a weekend and had to wait a considerable amount of time (1+ hr) for a table. The long wait is typical for this time of day, as lots of families love to sit and chat over tea. They give you a number for your party and you wait until yours is called out loud, so stay aware. This spot has the dim sum carts going around with the usual dishes you love - har gow, shu mai, rice rolls, etc. and you can order larger rice or noodle plates through the waiters. Their dim sum isn't bad, a solid 7/10 depending on your taste. I also came here for dinner before and it was pretty standard, which is a good thing. Nothing you wouldn't expect, in terms of taste and offerings. Overall, a solid Chinese restaurant all around. Just be weary of long waits during dim sum time, as you can't make reservations like you can for dinner. read more

It was New Years Day (1/1/25) and I had placed a big order (11 dishes) at 11am for pick up at 12pm and it was no problem and on time. Every time we have a get together with friends, we always order Chinese food from here. They have a great selection and variety and price is decent too. One of the best dishes that day was the lobster sticky rice! Up next was the teriyaki short ribs (juicy and tender). They never disappoint and service was quick and nice. read more

The dim sum place around the corner was closed due to a wedding so we saw this was still open and went. We came around 45 minutes until closing and it was last call. We ordered shrimp dumpling, shu mai, XLB, and shrimp rice rolls. It was quite good but it's double the price from dim sum place! The place is nicer and more upscale too. It was late night snack. read more

Went back home to visit my mom for CNY and we got some dim sum for brunch! The place was very crowded on New Year's Day but it had no wait for a table of three if we were willing to sit outdoor so that's what we did! Even though it was outdoor, the tent helped keeping the heat in so it was actually not cold at all. We were able to enjoy the meal without having to wear our jackets. Since we were sitting outdoor, they didn't have the ladies walking around with dim sum carts and they gave us a sheet to order instead. The sheet was all Chinese with no English. Not sure if they have one with English but it was fine for us since we can read Chinese. We got 7 dim sum to share and everything was very tasty! My favorite dim sum was the fried tofu skin wrapped shrimp paste and eggplant stuffed with shrimp paste (yes I love shrimp paste a lot haha). Overall love this place! Dim sum was delicious and tasted very authentic. Service was okay--I never have high expectations for Chinese restaurants especially on a busy day like this. Would recommend this place! read more

We came here today on CNY (10am) to pick up a ticket for a table, #63, it seemed like they were calling number 3 at the moment. We expected a long wait since it certainly is not the best day to go "yum cha". We came back 1.5 hours later, to see that only 7 parties have been called since we left. The waiters would just sit whoever that "blessed" them with a big red envelope to the next empty table, skipping the long ass que. We urge you to bring your hard earned money to another restaurant who value our morals/manners. I refuse to believe we ought to bribe someone for an empty table. And guess what, their food/dim sum isn't all that good anyways. I urge y'all not to come here and encourage this kind of behaviors. Good the F luck. read more

Best Cantonese banquet style restaurant in South Brooklyn. Our favorites are the fried garlic chicken, fried fresh oysters served in its shell, pan fried veal chops, ginger scallion lobster, pan fried lamb chops. Servers are friendly and quick to change your plates. Bathrooms are clean which are rare for Chinese restaurants. Highly recommended! read more

Came on the Sunday after lunar new years for a family dinner after hearing from my sister rave about their lamb chops. They have valet parking (possibly only for weekends? Or holidays?) and street parking that isnt terribly competitive like 8th ave. The ambiance was typical chinese banquet dinner style restaurant. Maybe it was new years but I was surprised at how many regulars came in and were greeted by names from the wait staff. We ordered a fish and they grabbed one from the tank and showed it to us, which doesnt happen that often in restaurants anymore. The soup came first and was delicious. Maybe because it was busy but they usually pour the soup for you into your bowls but it was understandable. The shrimp and lamb dishes came quickly after but then there was a lull in the dishes coming out, even for other tables. We ended up ordering an extra clam dish while waiting and that came out ahead of the dishes that we ordered in the beginning, which was weird. Peashoots were a little old/stringy but everything else was delicious. Nothing overly salty or tasteless. The best dish was definitely the lobster with rice. We only ordered it with 1 lobster and there was definitely enough rice for 6 people. Only thing I would suggest is having complimentary sweet soup =) read more

Traditional experience at a dim sum place with servers pushing around carts offering dishes. Different carts have different items, so it might take a few tries for the right cart to come around but they were quick to come around. Tasty and wide selection, with more you can order off their menu. Although prices have increased a bit over the past couple years, still a decent value. The place was packed on a weekday around lunchtime, so the wait to get a table was a bit long. Massive, lively dining area--your typical dim sum atmosphere. read more

This dim sum spot is fantastic--always packed but never a wait to get seated. The food is consistently fresh and plump, making for an enjoyable dining experience. However, if you have allergies, exercise caution. I have a shrimp allergy and twice asked if dishes contained shrimp. Both times, the waiters assured me they didn't, yet the dishes arrived with shrimp. It seems the staff doesn't fully grasp the severity of food allergies and are more focused on selling dim sum from the carts. Aside from this issue, I enjoyed the food. And waiters are very attentive. Just be vigilant if you have dietary restrictions. read more

Great dim sum restaurant with good service. On weekends come early or expect a over 30 minute wait for a table as it's that popular. Wonderful assortment and variety of dimsums. Great flavor and good portions. Go for any and all of the items as they are all wonderful. The highlight was their house special noodles. You can say it had a variety of different ingredients which made for a great noodle dish. It is definitely our go to place for dim sum. Will be back. read more

Came as a group of 9 for their dim sum on Sunday morning! Luckily the wait wasn't more than 15 minutes and we were able to get seated relatively quickly. Service was pushy-as in typical Chinese dim sum experience, the lady with the carts will constantly try to upsell you into getting more food than you need. We ordered a bunch to share + pineapple buns (had the most amazing salted egg yolk inside!) Shrimp rice rolls (the ones here had a silky rice paper exterior) Shu mai Taro and Chive dumplings Stir fried potato pea shoots (so flavorful and a wonderful vegetable addition when you need some fiber) - Radish cakes (the ones here were bland and weren't pan fried the way I usually like them) Seafood pan fried noodles (the toppings were actually kind of bland) Char siu steamed buns (the char siu here was WAY too sweet) Other classics included the har gow, egg tarts, golden lava custard bun- all of which were average. The total ended up being about ~$20 per person, so wasn't too expensive and we all left full with leftovers. read more

I've only been here pre-COVID-19, but I've always appreciated their tasty dim sum and brusque yet efficient service. Dim sum can be a sad affair for someone like me who's allergic to shrimp, because all the true dim sum lovers know that the shrimp dishes are the best ones. Even so, Golden Palace delivers on the other goods. I like their chicken feet, beef rice rolls, tripe and turnip (especially good here), and pan-fried turnip cake. It can be kind of a madhouse depending on when you come. We were here on Mother's Day weekend once and the place was swarmed with no organized system in place to keep track of the customers and when they arrived. It was apparently a free-for-all scramble to grab and hold tables. What a crapshoot. They also kept running out of certain dim sum items that we unfortunately weren't able to get on that visit. Come on a relatively more low-key, non-holiday weekend and you should be fine as long as you follow the normal rules of getting there early. read more

I had a horrible experience with this place and to be honest, it was THAT bad that I felt so compelled to share. I wish I checked out other reviews first because others mentions the same issue so this is obviously an ongoing problem and management doesn't care. I came and waited over an hour for a table. The line has not moved. A large table opened up and I saw people walk over and sit without the host calling any numbers. What's the point of giving numbers if the process isn't being adhered to? So I asked the host who are those people being seated since you haven't called any. She slyly say that was number 10. It up to number 17. We watched number 17 being seated an hour ago. So how is number 10 with various parties seated without being called? Other waiting customers overheard and realized that this is true - since they have been waiting, the host has not called a single number but somehow people were being seated. Probably from the ongoing pressure of complaints that she's allowing friends to skip the line, she finally admittedly said her manager said this is okay. What kind of manager would allow this type of abhorrent behavior? So we asked to speak the manager. She refused and kept laughing. Who laughs at an irate customer? Sure, we'll play the same game. We found a large table leaving and just sat down like the others. After eating, we still never heard our number called even though we were next in line from the time we made the complaints. I feel bad for the people that are relying on them to be truthful. Food wasn't too bad. It was your typical dimsum place. There are bunch in this area, so don't feel limited to this particular venue. We obviously won't be returning. Pro Tip: Don't be an idiot and rely on the host to serve and seat you accordingly. Make sure you're on top of your seating if not, prepare to wait and watch others walk in and just sit. read more

From a food quality perspective, this place is great for dimsum and that's why this place is packed every time we go. Wait time varies and it's best to have a person to beforehand at least 30 minutes beforehand to get a ticket if you want to get seated. The last time we went was for Chinese new year and we were lucky to just wait for around 45 minute. The wait time is based on the size of the party and you have to be close to hear your number or they cross your number off . They have the typical go to dim sum dishes that we love : shrimp noodle rolls , shrimp dumplings, shu mai , etc but they had durian pastry which was amazing but cost a premium . Worth it in my eyes but not for those who don't like durian... My daughter loved the custard bun that looks like a pig. If you can't wait to dine in, get takeout as there is a section for you to line up but be warned it's slow as well to wait in line and order for takeout. Small parking lot that I would recommend not to try to find parking there. read more

The food and service at this restaurant is inconsistent rating from very good to meh. I guess it depends on the cook in the kitchen or what dish is ordered. It's above average this time.

My family and I went to celebrate my father-n-law's birthday. We ordered a very nice steamed fish, fried squab, conch with fried tofu stuffed with shrimp paste, a T-bone fried steak and some very lovely steamed Oysters oysters with garlic black bean sauce. The fish was selected from a number of live fish (grouper I thin) and the oysters were huge! As I am not a fan of raw oysters, this is definitely a much better way to eat them. Yes, this oyster in the picture was the size of my appetizer plate! While we were there, only 2 other tables were occupied. The space was quite large, all staff wore masks and gloves. My family felt comfortable dining and had a lively meal. read more

I won't be coming back because of their valet staff. I parked the car myself prior to entering the restaurant. Post Dinner: After I was about to exit the parking lot... the valet staff magically appeared and demanded that I pay $3 if I wanted to leave the parking lot. They blocked me off with traffic cones and used their bodies to prevent me from leaving the lot. I PARKED THE CAR MYSELF...
