    Two foodies from Houston, Back to our favorite place for Dim Sum. We've been coming for years. Seen their various phases and remodel. Ask for Judy, she is amazing. Always helpful, friendly, and professional.

    Shrimp and beef dumplings

    Very average experience. Came here to try dim sum. I didn't really enjoy any of them. Tried the normal dumplings, fried dumplings, eggplant shrimp, duck, spring rolls, nothing I'd come back to. Even the noodles, it was okay, but I've had plenty better. Maybe I missed some special dishes, but overall I have nothing I tried that I liked. Service was decent, and the restaurant is huge. Fancy type of seating and interior, plenty of parking around but it can get very busy.

    Shrimp Dumpling (Har Gow)

    Solid no-frills, busy dim sum place in Chinatown. Massive 2 story restaurant with a moat surrounding it. In terms of food, they deliver on all the classics like the har gow and pork ribs in black bean sauce. The noodle rolls were a little too thick for my liking, and the truffle pork soup dumplings didn't really taste like truffle (and were almost double the price of normal soup dumplings !!). Overall I would come here again, but not overly impressed.

    Finally decided to try dimsum here-- think I was reminisicing my Hong Kong trip a little too much... Side note: after eating dimsum in HK, honestly nothing will top it. BUT. It doesn't mean it was terrible. I think the issue was that I came at around 3PM and some of the baked options were sold out. It bummed me out because you'd think they'd know their popular menu items and keep it available throughout the day...but lesson learned! I always, always, always get the crab claw anytime I see it. But this was a big letdown. It didn't taste fresh, it gave throwing it in the oven to reheat after a day or two. The worst one on the table had to be the turnip cake. It was super bland and it had the biggest portion out of everything. My favorite had to be the fried shrimp chive dumplings. I've only ever been aware of the steamed version and had no idea there's a fried version out there. It was fried at the right temperature with just enough filling and very flavorful. The shrimp dumpling and rice roll shrimp was also good; I feel like those two, you can't ever go wrong ordering them from any dimsum spot. Venue was clean and spacious, I'll definitely return again in the early morning hours next time so I can try out the sold out items I didn't get to try!

    Dried shrimp Cheng fun

    This is a Bellaire Chinatown staple for good reason. I've been coming to this restaurant for as long as I can remember. From family celebrations to weekend dim sum, it has remained consistent in quality throughout all of it. I can't believe that this is my first time writing a Yelp review about the place. I came with my mom for a late Friday afternoon dim sum. If there is one nitpicky critique, it's that the outside of the restaurant has been in better conditions. You can see the rust. The fountains don't run as often. The walls could use a new paintjob. These aren't really things that matter much for me, but if I had to point out something for the sake of it, this would be it. We were quickly seated. I like that Ocean Palace not only offers the standard mark your order sheet but they also do pictures. Highly recommend for dim sum newbies. Once we got everything selected, the food came out at reasonable times. Chicken feet - Great texture with the gelatinous skin, cartilage, and tendons. Flavor was solid. Could be more spicy with personal taste Shrimp cheung fun - Awesome! The shrimp and seafood soy sauce provided the perfect amount of sweetness to the dish Dried shrimp cheung fun - Good as well. Althought I prefer the former, this was still really good. Not as sweet since it's dried shrimp, it's a bit more savory. Chinese sticky rice aka Lo Mai Gai - Solid. It comes in two. Rice with all the minced meat and other savory goodies (mushrooms and sausage most notable) was flavorful and came in a fine balance of gelatinous and texture of separated rice. Steamed custard buns - Bun soft. Custard warm. No other words needed. Truffle shu mai - Comes in four. Strong truffle flavor. Slightly more upscale version of a dim sum classic. Recommend! The last thing that I'll note is the service. All of the wait staff was extremely kind and helpful. Our waitress was very proactive in helping us signing up for the rewards club so that we could get $8 off our order today. Everything ended up being about $40 total. All in all, highly recommend. This is one of those places where the question isn't "whether I will come back" but "when will I come back".

    Serious dim sum here and I'm a serious lover So welcoming and everyone was so friendly and helpful Server told me right away how to get $8 off my first order from joining the rewards club, so I did! Everything we ordered was fresh, tasty, hot, and the portions were very reasonable Rice noodles with lack bean sauce, shrimp steam rice rolls, bbq boa, they ran out of the baked, which is hard to find. Congee was great, not to overpowering in flavor. The fish was not fishy Prices added up but items were comparable to elsewhere Yes even the restrooms were clean. Def returning when in the hood. Easy to spot, this huge building

    Ginger and tofu pudding
    Hayley F.

    The last time I was here, it was years ago. Today I woke up with the craving for dim sum from Ocean Palace, so here I am. There are typical dishes that I will get in a dim sum place - har gow, pork and century egg congee, rice rolls, buns, pan fried flat rice noodles, and tofu pudding. I had those dishes and they were ok. The har gow could use fresher and bigger shrimps. The congee lacked ginger in it, but the texture was good. The rice rolls weren't smooth and thin enough. The flat rice noodles and tofu pudding were good. As for the matcha bun, the matcha was only at the top of the bun. There wasn't any matcha taste, and there should be lava custard inside but mine was dry. Also had the tofu skin roll which was very oily. The service was good and quick. The restaurant would get very noisy, and it would be difficult to talk without letting tables near you hear about your conversation. The restaurant is very popular. I highly recommend getting onto their waitlist, which is available on their website, from the time you set off.

    Ordered Sui Mai, Shrimp rice noodle, Congee with century egg, Har Gow, Chinese broccoli, Fried crab claw, Fried shrimp with chives, Chicken Feet, Peking roast duck Loved the food options and variety. Also loved that some options are in the traditional carts and the rest are to be ordered thru paper menu

    chung fung rice rolls wrapped around Chinese donuts

    Too overpriced for something that is "ok" at best. This is an OG dimsum place in the heart of the Town Bellaire. You typically don't expect service to hit flying colors, but the culture is that you do expect the food to speak for itself. We ordered dim sum and it was quite the disappointment. **Chinese broccoli (gai lan) with oyster sauce: huge disappointment. Traditionally served as blanched Chinese broccoli in oil and toss in oyster sauce. However, it was served as steamed with oyster sauce on the side. This is incredibly lazy on part of kitchen staff! **Shui Mai: it was okay, nothing to really write home about. **Hai Cao: likewise, met expectations but definitely was not wowed. ** Chung Fung rice rolled in chinese donut: a very unique dish that I don't often see in most dim sum places. The interior crunch of the Chinese donut held its own very well. The dipping sauce provided complimented the flavoring profile. Otherwise, still very spacious environment with plenty of seating options. Dishes came out relatively fast but this is to be expected since dim sum is typically pre-made.

    It looks like it's floating on the water!

    Dimsum for lunch in Houston, Texas... The business page for Ocean Palace had beautiful, intriguing photos on my Yelp app. I showed my family and they agreed. My niece had been here before since she's a student at Rice University... and she approved! Dimsum is a feast type of meal where everyone gets a little of everything. There's something for everyone! I liked the savory dumplings with chives - the pan-fried ones were better than the steamed ones, in my opinion. Some people like the sweet selections like the custard tarts (don tot)... these were just ok for me. The crust could be better. I prefer a crisper, flakes crust. My niece's favorite are the cream-filled buns. I honestly could pass on those... The shrimp dumplings (ha gow) were average while the pork ones (siu mai) were surprisingly more tasty than the shrimp! The sticky rice in lotus leaves was delicious! Turnip cakes were ok while the taro puffs were excellent! The pot of hot jasmine tea was great - along with the attentive service! Our water glasses were filled without needing to ask. Our used dishes were removed promptly. We enjoyed the spacious, elegant environment! The live seafood in the tanks were amazing! We appreciated the convenient restroom... and complimentary mints in the basket as we were leaving!

    This place was amazing. The outside is one of a kind. The inside was spectacular. The waitresses are multilingual and their service is wonderful. The food is amazing!! You have to try it out yourself. My favorite was chicken feet and shrimp cheung fun!! Like I miss the cheung fun so much right now. I wanted more but my stomach did not have room for more. They also do peking duck togo it's a full duck so be sure to have enough people or it's a deluxe leftover for a few days. Please share your thoughts.

    Food- 4.7/5 Service- 4.5/5 Ambiance- 5/5 Food: Ocean Palace is known for being pretty divisive in terms of how much people like it. For example, although my family has it as one of our favorites, my cousins have it way lower. I personally love their food. Every dish you get is never under salted and is always very juicy. Some of my favorites are the Shrimp Rice Rolls and Shrimp Shu Mai. Went here most recently with some family friends who aren't very familiar with the cuisine and they seemed to enjoy it a lot as well. At a certain point, all the dishes start to get to you, and at that point it it's important to STOP ordering. Make sure to order some kind of tea to wash everything down and fill your plate with hot oil and soy sauce to dunk everything in. Trust the process and enjoy yourself! Service/Ambiance: Waiters are a little slow at times, but the carts during the daytime are always so nice and the ambiance is really upscale and expansive. The upstairs that they used before for Dim Sum was always so overwhelming, but the new downstairs dining hall is really nice and well furnished. Always such a good time here. Go with a large group of family or friends and simply indulge in the variety Ocean Palace offers. You'll only rarely find a miss in this menu!

    Pork & preserved egg congee + fried taro puff
    Felecia I.

    We visited twice for weekday dim sum and were impressed. If I lived in Houston, this would be my go-to dim sum spot. Ordered the usual suspects such as pork and preserved egg congee, Chinese broccoli, shrimp dumpling, pan fried turnip cake, rice noodle roll with beef, fried taro puff, pork & peanut dumpling, tofu pork roll with oyster sauce. Everything was served hot, tasted fresh and quite delicious. Restaurant was spacious and very clean. Service and quick and efficient. Would love to try more items next time, including their Dungeness crab and lobster preparations.

    They opened up the kitchen so you can see it now

We came with a group of 18 people, and the bill ended up being around $972. Unfortunately, most of the dishes were more impressive visually than flavor-wise. The colorful green fried rice looked unique, but honestly just tasted like regular fried rice. The green beans were overcooked, so they lost the crunch and sweetness that usually make that dish enjoyable. The green curry was extremely spicy, but outside of the heat, it wasn't very memorable. The shaking beef dish looked amazing presentation-wise, but the sauce was too sweet for a savory dish, and the crispy rice pairing just didn't work well for me. I initially thought the duck dish was Peking duck, but it was actually the Jasmine Tea Smoked Duck. Even so, everyone at my table agreed we still preferred the traditional Peking duck style. The duck itself lacked flavor for us, and the skin was soft instead of having the crisp texture we were hoping for. The only dishes I genuinely enjoyed were the soup dumplings, cucumber salad, and fried dumplings. Most of the other dishes at the table were barely touched. If you're looking for colorful, aesthetically pleasing food and great presentation, you may enjoy this place. But if flavor is your main priority, this spot just wasn't for me personally.

Sadly, it seems like those days are long gone as the latter is on a downhill slope. Has ownership changed? (#1) I'm not sure, but so much else has. There's no tea offered, but bottled water. Service and the kitchen staff is a mess where it's most evident during their busiest hours. At one point, Cantonese was spoken but it also seems that's no longer the case. Previously the food was passable, but now it's near abysmal. Siu mai was hearty, but fairly bland. The same applies to their spare ribs (排骨), beef balls (牛肉球), and steamed glutinous rice in leaf (糯米雞). I felt their custard buns (奶黃包), fried stuffed crab claw (釀蟹鉗), fried glutinous dumpling (鹹水角) and the turnip cake (蘿蔔糕) were dried out. While the shrimp dumplings (蝦餃) and rice rolls (腸粉) mostly passed the test, it needed lots of soy sauce + condiments to be worth it. The only winner was their beef chow fun (乾炒牛河), where the beef and ho fun noodles were tender, while also being adequately greasy. The bonus bits of fried egg within were a nice surprise. While the prices range from $3.75-$9.70, a majority of it will average out to be $5-6 a dish. This isn't a terrible deal per se, especially during these times. However, it is a big price to pay for service issues and sub-par quality dim sum. While I'm hopeful that they'll rebound and I hope the Joy returns, but I don't think I will. __________ (#1) FZ / FJ peeps, where ya at?

    Hadn't been back in a long while, but we came here to celebrate the Lunar New Year. This…read morerestaurant is another OG in Houston. They have been around for as long as I can remember. Don't be fooled by its English name, you will not be eating Shanghainese food here: this is a traditional Cantonese restaurant. In typical Chinese American fashion, we had the "adult" table and of course we sat at the "kids" table. We ordered the classics as pictured. The food is always tasty and consistent. Service is friendly and the even though this spot is no frills, it is a familiar place with a very family-centered atmosphere. You can not go wrong with old reliable. If you are ever craving authentic, traditional Cantonese cooking without the large, dim sum hybrid model, I definitely recommend this place. Perfect for lunch with coworkers, by yourself, and great for larger dinners with the whole family.

    My parents needed to pick up some Chinese New Year goodies at Welcome Food Center so we figured…read morewe'd grab dinner nearby. We had eaten here years ago before the whole shopping center was remodeled. We arrived around 5:00 PM for dinner and were seated quickly. The food came out fairly quickly and was flavorful. It was four of us so we ordered: Hot & Sour Soup, Beef with Bitter Mellon, Beef Flat Rice Noodle (dry), Cantonese Sweet & Sour Pork (with pineapple) I was impressed how silky and tender the beef was. The sweet & sour was perfect lightly battered and crispy. The hot & sour could've been a bit more sour but had a small kick to it. It was perfect for my parents, but my husband and I had to add some chili oil & soy sauce for more flavor. The quality of the food 9/10, the price was a bit on the pricey side for the portions of the dishes. The hot & sour soup was $17! It wasn't anything special about it. I thought it was a bit steep for a family size, but I guess good service made up for it. I'm not sure if they were offering Chinese New Year specials, but within an hour there were several big parties with reservations. I recommend this place for authentic Cantonese Chinese food. It's rare to find good food and good service!
