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.

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.

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.

When I asked why, she said, "They're crunchy." My eyes lit up. As a vegan I crave crunchy food because so much plant-based food is soft. Evian was right! This roll had texture. It was beautifully presented in eight pieces. Upon the first yummy bite it was apparent this was cooking at another level. The fry was perfectly light and clean. Each bite substantial. The taste memorable. I have never had a sushi roll like it and now I want to live inside the restaurant so I can have it forever. We also got five pieces of the yummy Seitan Crispy, which comes with a lovely Doenjang sauce, that is thick and flavorful. These unique, protein boosts are also cleanly fried, delectable and filling. Lastly, my husband got the small BBQ Donburi which was a bowl of rice, a flavorful bbq soy protein, and some mesclum. He loved it. We sat outside on the lovely side street and chatted with Evian who made our dinner a memorable experience. I highly recommend this restaurant and wish I could bring it back to America. Even better, open up a branch in San Francisco!

The food was pretty good and that plate of vegetables after eating solid meat and carbs for days is like the best thing you've ever tasted. The crispy prawns was also really good. Flavorful with a crispy batter that's not overly greasy. The eggplant casserole dish was also delicious! The sweet and sour pork was a bit disappointing. The batter was too thick and the meat too small. The sauce was also a bit heavy on the vinegar for my liking. The servers are friendly and service was ok in the beginning but quickly slowed to a halt when all the tables were full. To be fair, a huge group came in for some type of celebration. The place is no frills but it's clean. Only downside is the door kept open after patrons use it to exit or enter and would not close so not great during the colder months.

We were staying near the area and happened to pass by this place as we were searching for a place to grab a bite. It's a small indoor cafe, but two things stuck out: the friendliness of the greeter (who we later found out is the owner) and that the dumplings were being handcrafted fresh by ladies right in front. We were seated at the last available seating for two, and there was a carafe of still water right there (with a sprig of mint for flavor). The restaurant emphasizes the fusion element (mainly between Chinese-dim-sum and Japanese Gyoza). We got two plates from the 'Les Compositions' menu: Menu (Dim Sum) Star (15.90€) and Menu Gyoza (14.90€). The Gyoza plate came out first, consisting of 4 meat dumplings and 4 veggie dumplings (you can tell the difference by the color of the wrapper). The plate also had medium grain rice, and seaweed salad, and a dipping sauce (soy vinegar). The dim sum plate came in two personalized size steam baskets that came JUST out of the steamer (all of it was very freshly hot, which was great). It came with rice, dipping sauce, and edamame (which is why it is called fusion, I guess). Everything was good, very fresh, and steaming hot. Obviously it depended on personal preference for fillings (we both like meat fillings a lot more than vegetarian). The size was perfect for the two of us for lunch, and we finally sated our (good) rice fix after a 12 day absence. As we were finishing, the greeter came over, and asked us to write something in a guest book. Kinda neat, so my wife wrote a nice greeting. We learned that she was Anne, the owner, and when she noticed that we were from Cali, she pointed us to a different guest book that had been signed by a famous California resident. We struck up a conversation, and paid by credit card. We left the restaurant really happy (it helped that the sun peeked out as we went outside as well). Ann was really cool, and love how a place like this exists (probably all over the city) without much hoopla.
