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. If your taste buds need a departure from butter, cream, and cheese, drop in for an awakening.

The lemongrass chicken is delicious, I strongly recommend this. Well, what I can tell is u can have the real chinese food here. Worth to go again.

They have an English menu and a very lovely server that spoke English. Here's what we had: -Fried shrimps and egg roll with sweet dipping sauce - very good and very similar to what I'm used to in L.A. -Noodles with shrimp - tasty and they had sambal oelek to drench it with. -Cantonese fried rice - probably my favorite. The rice was cooked to perfection and had a great flavor. -Imperial shrimps - a lot of shrimp with onions and a lot of garlic. The shrimp could've been cooked a little more but good nonetheless We had jasmine tea that was delicious. I would really recommend anyone staying in the area to try this place is you are craving Chinese food. It really hits the spot.

Dim Sum in Paris. Shoot why not?…read more Reviews were great. My husband loves dim sum. So we figured let's go get some. For us, it was A-OK. Probably tasted better to us because we were tired of pizza, sandwiches, etc. loved that they have an all you can eat option. they have a set menu for their all you can eat. once they bring out their set menu items you're allowed to inform them of which items you'll like to eat more of. why i loved that they have an all you can eat option? the price for it was pretty reasonable compared to everything else we've been eating in europe. it gave us the opportunity to try a little bit of everything. did it taste like dim sum in LA? unfortunately not. nothing was super memorable to me and once i tried each item i didn't really wanna reorder anything. the XLB had no juice inside of it. which i totally was disappointed about. esp when XLB is known to be good because it is juicy. service was pretty good. food came out really quick. you'll leave smelling like deep fried food since they make some of the food right in front of the window. overall, if you want to get more bang for your buck and wanna have some asian food then i would say try it out. if not it's definitely passable. tips: *accepts credit cards and cash *restrooms are available. *staff speaks english, french, and chinese. *street parking *serves alcohol. *takes reservation. *no wifi. *ask for tap water to save $ *within walking distance to the metro.

I could live off of Chinese dumpings. Really, I find the format to be the most perfect design ever…read more So cute, easy to eat, doughy, salty and juicy. When I moved to Paris 15 years ago the dumpling options could be counted not only on one hand, but on two fingers, which is why I'm thrilled with the dumpling explosion (aka ravioli for the French) in Paris. I find it hilarious as well that new places are opening up with names like "L'art du ravioli" since it's such a Frenchified, highly pretentious way of describing such a simple, traditional thing. In any case, this new canteen on the rue au Maire makes a statement with its dumpling focus. The menu consists of about 8 different dumpling types as well as a range of salads and other dishes. I asked the waitress for her classics, and she suggested the pork with chinese cabbage and cucumber salad. The salad was crisp and piquant and lovely, the dumplings were good, the meat mixture was flavorful, the dough soft but the texture of the pork was a bit grainy. I inhaled the whole order happily, however. The service was great and the prices are hard to beat. I paid 12E for an order of dumplings, my cucumber salad and a 1/4 of red.

A man from NY heard us speaking English and said it was really delicious so we knew it was the right choice.

No dessert except litchi in syrup so that was disappointing. Over all we liked it but our standard is very high as we ate dim sum weekly in San Francisco at Good Luck dim sum on Clement. We are going to try some others.

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.

I chose vegetables, pork, fried rice, and lo mein. The staff heated it up with a microwave before serving it. It's not the most luxorious experience but I believe the total was only £13 so what more could a girl want? I didn't find the food too oily or too seasoned and the staff is friendly as well. I'd recommend this place if you're looking for some cheap eats in the area.
