Been coming here for years, more like decades. I can't say the quality is the same as it used to be, but it's definitely the best option in the area. The dishes have gotten smaller and the prices have increased but that's everything nowadays. I understand if they are just trying to keep up. Both dinner and dim sum are great, again one of the few places that actually bring the carts of food around to serve for dim sum. They have all the good options, you'll find something for everyone. This place has not changed at all over the years. There's also a cute little garden in the back we used to go and take pictures at when we were younger. They have a pond and I think there's still koi fish in there. The staff has always been very nice to us over the years. If you're looking for something fancy and upscale, this wouldn't be the place. But do come for good authentic food.

The food, service and atmosphere is the pinnacle of what a Chinese Restaurant should be. Crown palace never disappoints and is not only very good but consistent. The menu has some innovative dishes not commonly found in other restaurants. We'll be back soon!

I came on a Saturday around noon and it was pretty packed in here - I had to wait around 6 min for a table for 3 Would say a few things - if you want to get dim sum, going for lunch is the best time to go - this is a classic dim sum place - Dim lighting, cloth table sheets - if you haven't been to a din sum place and you're here soecificallly for the dim sum, there isn't really a menu. There are a lot of waiters who bring out the fresh food in carts and you need to order as they pass by -any of the servers will straight up speak canto - not all of them can speak fluent English or even mandarin so you need to 1. Bring a friend who can order for you all or 2. Be okay with pointing and trying the items -there is a huge dimsum place in Philly that serves a lot of dim sum but this place is smaller so it is more orderly and cleaner in comparison - there is a small Asian garden outside in the back of the restaurant! Would suggest taking the time to make a few quick steps - they also prefer cash over card so if you can, bring cash

Another great experience at Crown palace! We went with two other couples recently, and let Larry handle the ordering for us. As usual, he did a great job in ordering and we were all quite satisfied. Orange Beef, Sesame Chicken, Lobster with Garlic Sauce and Dragon Sole with Chinese Vegetables. We started our meals with Pan Fried Pork Dumplings along with their pickled cabbage. All in all a fun and delicious meal!
